New Dark spell: Sandstorm!

New Sandstorm Spell!
Years ago there was a wizard who went to the desert to find ingredients for a spell that the chief was going to use in his war attack. He was carrying the empty bottle that he was going to put the ingredients in. There was a sandstorm but the wizard did not hesitate. But before he knew it his bottle was full of sand. He saw it started to glow, and was curious. He brought it back to the base and brought it to the dark spell factory to discuss with the other wizards. He said it was too sandy and he couldn't see very far so he was forced to come back, but he brought back glowing sand in his bottle. Then they found out that it could be used in battle!

The Sandstorm spell creates a sandstorm in a radius that lowers range of defenses, and has a small chance to make a defense miss an attack!

The wizards are too lazy to go back to the desert until you have put some work into getting 5mil elixir to upgrade the dark factory at town hall 10. :)

Here are stats: (Housing space is 1)

Level1
Range decrease-1
Chance to miss attack- 7%
Time- 5 sec
Cost- 120DE

Level2
Range decrease- 2
Chance to miss attack- 14%
Time- 7 sec
Cost-130DE
Upgrade cost- 45kDE

Level 3
Range decrease- 4
Chance to miss attack- 20%
Time- 10sec
Cost- 150DE
Upgrade cost- 60KDE

Offensive strategy: You are attacking and you are at 49% and have a low hp queen and a sandstorm spell. There is an xbow that will hit the queen if she gets to the town hall, but you put a sandstorm spell on the xbow and the queen can destroy the town hall with no worries!

Defensive strategy: Dont place too many defense buildings close together so the sandstorm spell wont be as effective.

Do you like the idea? Think it needs changes? Comment!

I Love the idea and backstory! But dark spells all take 1 space.

This idea is awesome I would love to see this in the game. I do think the chance to miss is a bit low and the cost to make it is really high. Besides these things the idea is great!!

Also you should make a offensive and defensive strategy sort of thing so that people get a sense of how to use it most effectively in battle and how to defend against it.

Also make the housing space one because all DE spells are one

I'm going to make this spell unique and take up 2 space instead of 1 because decreasing range 11 times would be OP.

I like the idea, I was thinking maybe it could act like a 5 second smokescreen instead (like the queens ability)? I don't know, just tossin out some ideas, I like this idea though and I hope it gets added :)

It should be 1 space since it's a dark spell. but other than that it's a good idea👍

Make it a regular spell DE spells are 1 space. Also, I think a combo range decrease and a chance to miss is OP. Choose one.

Sounds good so far :)

It should be two spaces because 11 of these would be OP.

This is a good idea. But if you want this to be a Dark Spell, then it NEEDS to be 1 housing space... No exceptions. 11 of these would only be OP because of its REDICULOUS time of coverage. For each Level, I suggest lowering the time by 15-16 seconds. Because the time is the only thing making this OP. We don't need a Spell that can Decrease a defense's range for 20+ seconds of a raid, because that's too much time.
I suggest increasing the "Chance to Miss target" Percentage, because if you take away 15% from 100%, 85% of the Defense's shots will still hit its target. 85% is still quite a bit, if we don't increase this, than people may not use the Spell.

Maka it a normal spell, not a dark spell! Make this spell available in lvl 6 Spell Factory!

Don't listen to the Fresh Spawn, none of them know what they're talking about.

My idea was called Fog spell [ in compilation of spell ideas ] but it made ranges of all defenses the same [ 5 tiles ][ upgrading it only increases cost and duration !]

However your idea is cool about upgrading it to make it more " thick " : A golden bottle of sand and gold sand will look awesome !!!! Also the story is very amazing and supportive !!!!!!

G'luck

Make this spell of 1 Housing Space and stack able because when you stack a max sandstorm spell , it will almost block all defenses and make it like a freeze spell in terms of effects.
It is not OP as given the fact that it lasts almost same as the Freeze spell !!!

2 x Sandstorm spell = 1 Freeze Spell

BTW I liek the idea !! G'luck !!

It's a great idea

You literally stole verbatim my idea and added a % chance to miss. You created this thread a day after I created mine...
