A New Shielding System, One Based on.... LOOT

Hey guys, I see that many of you are suffering from the Personal Break Timer, and the shield system that relates to it.

I have seen that many people are actually trying to lose a defense in order to get the shield, and many other things that would've been considered absolutely IDIOTIC if they have been said 2-3 years ago, but make perfect sense today.


And so I started to think of a system that could shield you when you were actually harmed... When your loot was taken.


My thoughts go to shields coming after a specific percentage of a person's loot is taken by the raider, because we can almost all relate to losing 1K DE, not getting shielded, another thousand, another one, another one, another one and a shield.


I think that people should get shielded when they have over 250K gold and elixir, or 1000 DE stolen, or maybe become shielded when they lose 50% of their available gold and elixir, or 40% of their available DE stolen.

Yes, I used the word "or", because I believe losing 250K gold and elixir and 2000 DE, isn't much different than losing 249K gold and 2000 DE.



So, what do you guys think?

agree but maybe 1000 de is kind of a low threshold as some bases will just put their de outside their base and get a shield easily.

Interesting idea, but what about maxed bases who play for cups?

I'm not sure what the numbers should be, and that's why I asked for your opinions.

Thanks.

If you lose a lot of loot, you only get shielded, you won't lose, so no problems will be caused for the high level players either.

What if an automatic 12 hr shield is given if 40-50% or more troops were dropped, 14 hrs if TH taken and 16 hrs at 100%?

God knows what players will do next to troll others.

What a stupid idea... The whole idea of the game is to build a base that protects your loot. So globally, I don't need to protect my loot anymore because if I do, I won't get a shield and will be attacked over and over. Better put it in a corner and wait for someone to take it.

Or you could just put it in the middle and hope for all the back-to-back raids to not reach it, and when it does, you will be shielded to be protected against the next person that succeeds, and so on.

Why would I want to stop people getting my loot if that's the only way I can get a shield ? First raid would release all my traps, kill my CC, kill my heroes and next one would make a decent attack and get an easy 100%.

Currently, I do put it in the middle, and hope for the first raid not to reach it. Most of the time he will get 30% and give me a shield. I really see no interrest in this proposal
