Spell cooking time needs reducing

This has been clear since update, but really noticeable after the attack boost was removed. At TH10 in an average attack I use four or all five spells. This is in Champs, using my DE farming army of a queen walk, with giants, wiz and a few hogs.

I see no way of farming successfully for DE without needing my spells. Rest of my army takes about 40mins to build, less if I queue the healers up. My heroes take about an hour and a half, but usually my queen at least survives with some health, so is up quicker.

My spells? Two hours and twenty minutes.

This is dumb. Its fine to force us to use full strength armies to farm, but to have to wait 2hr + between raids isn't. Right now this just feels like another artificial bottleneck like having upgrading heroes down during war, a feature put in by SC purely to rinse gems out of us. At least that bottleneck allows you to continue playing the farming game though. The spells one means you can't do anything, without a 5 gem boost on the spell factory (which, as luck would have it, reduces the cook to about the same time as my army build takes. How convenient huh? /sarcasm)

Buddy, you see the shiny green button with a number in your spell factory. Tap that and your spells finish instantly. Got it?

You do realize that most people don't want to gem, right?

You do realise that SuperCell are a company, and Clash is a commercial product, right?

The freemium model allows all to pay the game, typically paying folk can progress more quickly.

That's what's going on here. Pay up, or deal with it.

don't forget the king and queen regeneration time, this is way to high , 108 minutes is ridiculous. Fully boosted u can do 2 attacks ????????????

Yes and yes. However the spell times are rather disproportionate to other offensive aspects...

Yawn, move on. Those that recognise that there is a balance between what a company wants to charge, and what people are willing to pay, would like to have an adult conversation.

You notice how the resource boost is still around whilst SC reconsider the changes they made? Happened because people didn't "pay up or deal with it".

But that is the point. The production times are no accident. They are carefully crafted to encourage you to buy gems, whether with boosts or outright buying. Cheapskates have to wait. :)

Such insight. I imagine SC will be in touch, requesting more of this wisdom.

Clash makes billions. A hitch here and there is inevitable. SC have vast amounts of data to drive pricing decisions, the opinions of a few hundred slighted scrubs are irrelevant.
