Dark Elixir Feedback Thread

[Mehki7]

I need to vent. I love this game so much but supercell you have ♥♥♥♥♥♥ me off a lot. It takes however long to upgrade these drills and storages and it take a lot of elixir!!!! THIS UPDATE WAS JUST ABOUT THE TOP PLAYERS ALL GEMS. It will take OVER A YEAR to get lvl 30 heroes. You need to raise the production rate now. I don't have $2k to spend on this game. Unlike the top players. You guys are basically said "buy gems or quit" I don't want to quit but I also don't have 2k please lower the upgrading prices (DE storages, mines) and higher then production rate please.

Mehki,

I know you are upset, but out of curiosity, why do you feel such a need to be maxed in everything as soon as the new update comes out? We all have time. Unless you are one of the top 3k+ troph players, you don't really need to max your heroes right away. They are so visible in the Top Player screen, but it's really misleading to think everyone is gemming so much like them.

I'm farming and my barb king is only lvl 4, and my queen is only level 1. And, not to brag, I can quite easily buy gems to boost them, but I do not see the rush. I am enjoying this... again, so long as one does see the need to rush through everything so fast.

I do think the 75% cap, as discussed, is just too high. But, I'm sure it'll work it out in the balance tweaks.

I agree with Illustris, I will enjoy the challenge of upgrading my Barb King, don't have it yet but I will soon. I'm so far having fun taking people's Dark Elixir. Besides what funn is upgrading everything at once like top players?? What to do after that??.... I love farming lol

I totally can agree with you but, it's like 10 to upgrade your barbarian king. And you get like 5-100 DE a raid... That's what I'm trying to say. That's a lot of raids

[TeamVisionRVP]

See just snagged 180 lol

Aye, it's going to be a long, long road without gemming...

The raids are incredibly low partially because no one has had time to fill their storages (unless they gemmed it). In fact, many players, such as myself, dont even have the stuff built because it takes a full day. Once epmany of the TH8 and 9 players get these things up and running, there should be quite a but more dark elixir to be raided.

[l2djae]

Gotta say, I agree.

Furthermore, I'd be pretty upset if I gemmed for some dark elixir, say 40k, but needed 45k (as lvl 2 queen needs), was short only 5k... went to sleep. And someone raided me for 75% of that 40k, which is 30k... leaving me with a measly 10k.

Ugh. And then, a week later, they fix this so you can't raid 75%. Lol, sort of like the person who just upgraded a barrack 8 for 30% more than what it is now...

Anyways, SC, it does strike us clearly that a 75% cap is waaaaaay too high if the Wiki info is correct. It would be great to tweak that earlier rather than later, if you agree.

Illustris Who Loves the Update Btw, Dang these Heroes Are Fun to Play With

Hey twin,

I'm not sure if 75% is 100% accurate. I am testing this atm and I find the results to be something else. Also, there's definitely a cap. Just now, I saw a guy that had 888 DE available to loot. I went to check his base and found he had over 17,566 of DE in his storage. So you won't be robbed of 30K of DE like in your example, which is good.

I'll keep testing to see what percentage I come out with. Unfortunately, I don't have a jailbroken device so I can't just check the game files.

Dahimi, I'm sure, is scrambling. It's pretty amazing how much new content they've already added over there. But, after being pointed to the Wiki, I saw there a 10% cap for dark mines and 75% for dark storages, which is mind boggling, if true.

@Pedro, I'm sure that person is also a male underwear model with good breathe, like me...

I want them to make the DE mine more like a mine not 2500 and hour but like 500-1000 it would make life so easier. But then everyone would have lvl 30 heroes and they would have to lower all the prices for walls and stuff.
