Village Guard & Personal Breaks <-- discuss it HERE!

We are gonna need a real session timer to keep up with this PBT ♥♥♥♥.

Gonna get irritating trying to figure out how much time u got before u get kicked when every lil thing u do effects it till ur get a def.

so not liking this mercey rule reset of PBT. Kick me off ok but dont make me wait for ever to start a new sesh if i dont get attacked.

Yeah I agree.

I foresee such a timer coming. Maybe a warning message will come up that you are about to get kicked?

I don't know. We'll see.

Yes as a co in clan wars i may get on for a minute or two all the time just to check donation requests and what not. But that could effect my pbt now so when i do finally get on to raid i only got 2 hours left instead of three. Resetting this timer seems to be a very ♥♥♥♥♥♥ed process.

Not happy with the direction and i have never complained on this forum. Always stood by supercell. But now they are effecting my ability to be on a lot and support my clan even if i am not actively raiding.

So can we rethink this PBT thing. Shorten it to three hours fine. But make it fricken easier to RESET! I wanna play more not less

Personal Break Timer (PBT) / Normal Play Session:
- New rules to reset PBT
- Forced offline for 6 minutes after 3 hours, can be extended (see below PBT Reset Rules)
- Can be extended by 2 hours by purchasing Village Guard (once per day)
- PBT is paused during server maintenance, NOT reset

If the personal break timer is being reduced then the pause functionality that is available prior to maintenance for gem boosts on heroes and barracks should also be provided.

There is nothing more frustrating then losing 10 minutes of your boost when you are on max attack because of these breaks and this is likely to happen more often as a result of these changes.

from what I'm reading about the PBT that means EVERYBODY should leave their th and misc buildings outside to guarantee attacks on their th for at least league bonus loot for the attacker and that way the defender can defend up to 3 attacks right away and log back on after getting kicked out.

If everybody just attacks the misc buildings and th then they'll get league loot easily and defender can keep their storage loot. Yes, you'll lose trophies defending but then you'll gain trophies attacking/farming as well if everybody leaves their th and at least 30% of misc buildings outside.

I agree with earlier posts how this will effect wars. I guess you can't farm during war otherwise you might get kicked off and won't be able to get back on for attacks.

I personally stay on coc during war to scout and watch replays or redesign bases which takes a couple hrs to do if you're designing from scratch.

we'll see how it plays out i guess

You are forgetting the 1/3 troops threshold. If you put your TH and a few buildings outside, it won't give you any shield since it only requires a few troops to take those down. You have to make sure the attacker uses enough troops to destroy you at least 30% to get a shield.

true, but it also says that after 3 defending attacks you'll get another 3 hours to log on and raid.
I don't personally care about shields as long as i'm not losing all of my loot. with the new update it seems that getting a shield will be hard so the best strategy would be to get everyone aligned to help each other upgrade even without a shield.

If you have a shield while monitoring a war, you will not be accruing pbt time.

i fricken hate that i HAVE to take a def to start grinding again. Seems ♥♥♥♥♥♥ed and restricting my play.


Resetting this PBT is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ed process and u will lose more gamers this way.


By there being sooooooo many new bases out there to attack it may be hours before mine is hit to reset this damn timer. So fricken irritated. Do something about this SC

It only holds you up for 6 minutes, up to 3 times then your pbt resets. You can dismiss the 15 minute vg between each forced break.

No, if you have a shield, that will not affect your pbt at all.

This update will result in more properly done raids on your base, but you will be able to do more raids before someone can hit you back.plus its more likely you will get juicy targets to raid as nobody can hide behind free shields.

i think people are more concerned about not having a shield because their base is not attractive to attackers therefore not being able to log back on or getting kicked out for planning war because they don't have a shield.

also, brewing a good offensive raid sometimes takes hours. especially for those that are upgrading their barracks.
