Dragon AI update

I agree that the AI should not change, I do not like the AI tweaks because we have to relearn how to deploy troops. As others said dragons target the next nearest so "funnel" attack methods work well with them, they need to be "guided" towards an objective.

The Dragon will only attack other enemy troops if the Dragon is being attacked by them, or if enemy troops are attacking other friendly troops near it . Ex; You have a dragon helping to destroy a structure with a few ground troops near it. A Pekka is defending, and attacks one of the ground troops near the Dragon. The Dragon is going to attack the troop that is attacking the closest friendly troop.

The A.I doesn't need to be changed, just keep these basic statistics in mind in order to effectively use the Dragon.

The thing is though that no ground troops were being attacked, none were deployed during the battle.

Then how did it target a PEKKA?

Clan Castle Troops will only come out if they can defend.

A Pekka won't come out of the Clan Castle unless ground troops walk into it's radius.

I did have ground troops to help clear a bit they were killed by def, not the pekka. The pekka did no damage the entire fight.

Sorry bud, drag already to OP. You must not realize this.

Drags aren't that op, it's the way people use them that make them op. For example, you could have a troop that summons lightning everywhere but if no one uses it, it isn't op.

The same way it targets the BK over the TH. the Pekka was it's closest target. This also works backwards. I have had archers attack walls to "get" to the drag all the while the drag flies over them and kills them all because the archers are more concerned about destroying the walls that the drag WAS hovering behind.
