Ok I have a major complaint

Since everyone else seems to get there complaints fixed (i.e. boohoo I'm a TH9 in silver 2 cause all I want to do is barch collectors at abandoned bases but since no one cares about trophies this low people keep zapping my dark elixer, or boohoo air raids made all this gold I spent on walls pointless). Well I have a major complaint with the way attacking troops engage, or rather re-freaking-fuse to engage, defending cc troops. I've had many raids now where the defending cc troops have just totally decimated my attacking army because my troops dance all around the outside and won't attack the max loons or max wizards or whatever that are spamming the hell out of them. I've seen attack after attack after attack where I'll have a group of troops within just a few tiles of the defending cc troops but they will continue to pip away at a collector or building or whatever until the defending cc troops wipe them out. This is getting ridiculous. As a GiBarch'er, it's almost made it impossible to farm anymore. A group of max wizards or max loons will wipe out a group of giants within seconds of engagement then my barchers and heros will totally ignore what is going on until they march over there and wipe them out too. Hell, even defending giants have become a pain in the ♥♥♥ because my barch will sit back trying to clean up all the outlying buildings while my giants are in the core trying to take down defenses being relentlessly mauled by the defending giants. Once the defending cc troops engage and start doing damage to the attackers I feel that should become first priority of the attacking troops is to get rid of the defending troops. Am I the only one that finds this incredibly annoying? And yes I usually do try to check for cc troops and I always take multiple poison spells with me. But sometimes when farming since you can't scout where the cc ring comes out to it's hard to get the pull and like I said, max loons or wizards(or even giants) will kill a cluster of 15-20 attacking giants before the poison spell kills them.

Then lure or use poison, or lightning.

And if your giants are ahead of the rest of your army that's your fault, I don't have that problem and without seeing your raid I'm not sure why you do except lagged deployment.

My troops tend to get lured adequately by defending troops personally.

learn to lure and kill cc troops. /end

That is all good and fine, but SC should fix this. I completely agree that cc troops should be a priority over any building, and the cc troop trigger radius is terrible right now. I am all for making attacking difficult or at least not too easy and all, but I find it is dumb that sometimes troops will not attack cc troops until they get hit by them.

im right there with ya man, troops should attack the defending cc if they are attacking your army, i feel like its gotten worse after an update, didnt really haave this problem a while back

I'd say the OP needs a lesson in grammar and English before learning to lure.

I've had a couple hog attacks fail recently on max TH8 with a central Barb king lvl 10. When the defenses are gone they chip away at the clan castle while the barb king just ♥♥♥♥s away at all of them. Now that is frustrating.

Sorry but I don't have much trouble with it. As a gibarcher you should be packing some wb's to get to that core and you should know by now how to funnel your troops inside or lure the cc outside. From your OP its easy to see that you don't even attempt to lure the cc out to a corner and kill them. That's a fail on your strategy not SC's coding.

I agree with you. Same goes for attacking the enemy king and queen. I don't like the change and I'd be happy with them reverting it.

When the hogs finish flattening the defenses and start smacking the TH/storage/CC, they should have enough brain power to turn around and kill the king that is currently attacking them.

same thing happened me a group of 5 hogs hitting clan castle Bk starts attacking the first, I would expect that rest OR even the one being hit would attack the King but no kings wipes out the whole group and not one hog hits the king. Agro range really needs to be fixed.
