Unhappy with the Resource Protection Update?

The matchmaking system sets you up against simular th levels. It doesn't take in account the progress of that base. A lvl 70 th10 is way different than a lvl 125 th10.

Also if you see the same bases in silver as you do in masters than why not good to masters and get the loot bonus too

I see max townhall 9s and 10s in gold all the time. I won't go and attack a max TH10 because I can't get enough loot from them before my army dies, but there are plenty of max bases here.

Either all the silver 9s and 10s are stupid, for not taking the bonus, (what i dont think) or it is easier to farm in silver.
what is it?



Barching some DE from 3 maxed Drills can give you a nice amount, but for farming DE i use my AQ+ healer :p
compared to zapping, this is tactic seem to be OK, because it needs a lot of skill to use it :rolleyes:
Just wait for SC to nerf it, when the crybabies start whining again

There are a lot in crystal/masters. The zapping nerf simply allowed more TH9s and 10s to drop down without being struck 10 times a day and get basically guaranteed shields every time they log off.

There is still a difference between zapping and whatever attacking strategy you use. There was absolute no defense against zaps, but a good base design, cc troops, and good defenses could fend off attackers. It's common sense to attack weaker bases. Would you go after a max TH10? No?

SC won't nerf it, or atleast completely. Yes they nerfed the upgrading elixir with walls thing, but I doubt this will get nerfed. Dark elixir is supposed to be rare and this update keeps it where it belongs: away from the zappers.

When this update came, the only thing I felt was "Finally"

Personally, I think the Zap protection should only activate above 2000 trophies. Up here and higher, there's no reason to zap. Down in Gold and lower, I understand why it's needed. Many TH7 and TH8 looking for DE with TH9 and TH10 dropping trophies to farm off of lower league players. Sometimes, a TH7 and TH8 can only zap to get DE, or that's the only revenge recourse they have against higher level players.

This would have given incentives for all those complaining about zappers - move up to a higher league if you don't want low level players zapping DE from your maxed TH9/10 bases. Consider zapping below 2000 to be the cost of doing business in the lower leagues.

Now that's something I haven't heard before. Interesting idea.... But otherwise, I just think the resources being protected is good, but the fact that there is zero damage to building hitpoints is bad. With all the added buildings and hitpoint increases and the odd troop "nerf"...at some point it goes from hard to ridiculous to nearly impossible to three star bases unless you are maxed th10, war included.

Removing zaps had nothing to do with legitimate gamers, and everything to do with bunnies

Haha, you can. If you want to pick a fight with a higher player, go for it, and attack them. Then don't complain if they come back and destroy you. (I speak from experience-you generally end up losing twice if you have any resources. :-p But it's still fun now and then. If you can't deal with that, don't look for trouble.) Exchange a fight for a fight, not a fight for a zap.

As for DE, yep, farm it. Can't get it from higher th? Of course not. Upgrade your troops and learn more strategies. In the meantime, attack lower. I think that's generally how it goes...? 😆

I take my DE from maxed-defense TH9's in Gold II and Gold II allll the time. And I hit Next on strong TH10's with max multi infernos in the core all the time too.


As to whomever keeps asking incessantly about why not be in crystal/masters, I'm not because when I went to Crystal II the bases were dry as hell, very little gold/elixir and the same DE, as in lower leagues. I get crazy DE where I am and I get sniped for a shield the vast vast majority of the time on defense why would I want to be anywhere else?

I've been from gold to masters and back down to crystal. I can confidently say that while yes you do see some maxed th9 and th10s in gold on the average the bases I come across in masters are alot stronger.

I see alot more lvl 9 and 10 wall in master than I do in gold. I hardly see and lvl 7 or below walls in masters either and I'd say level 7 walls are what I see the most ofthe in gold and crystal

There's ways to gain like 75k+ hour. However that's at near max th9 that it becomes efficient

Don't care.
