    Hog Rider Buff (Levels 1-2)

    I am currently upgrading the townhall on my alternate account to level eight, and I have already upgraded my hogs to level two. I understand hogs were once nerfed, but at the moment they just don't seem like a liable option to attack other town hall sevens with. In both my alternate's war base and its "farming" base I have a set of double giant bombs. However, due to mortar and wizard fire the first bomb to trigger in these sets usually kills off all of the enemy's hogs before they can place a heal. I haven't had much experience with this, but I do know that it is very possible for a single giant bomb to kill groups of level 1-2 hogs. I believe they should have their health buffed at levels 1-2. They should have enough health to withstand at least one giant bomb, making them have a larger presence at town hall level 7. I am not asking for any attack increase or special effects, but simply a health buff so dragons aren't necessarily always the best option to three star th 7's!
    Please let me know what you think! Again, this isn't a major buff, but hopefully one that prevents a single giant bomb (sgb?) from killing off your piglets!

    lvl 2 hogs can survive lvl 2 gb

    The damage of giant bomb at level 2 is 200 without the 1.5x multiplier to hogs. Hogs at level 2 have hp of 312. Hogs are usable at th7 since as like what you have said, hogs aren't that used as much as dragons are which means that most bases don't have dgb and therefore prone to hogs. They also lack defenses to defeat mass hogs.

    Level 1 and 2 hogs are very effective, if you tank them with just a few giants.

    Okay, thanks for the feedback! I suppose this is a no go, I just haven't been using my low level piglets correctly. I did previously look up the hogs' health, and damage of giant bombs, but in my raid my hogs were already weak from splash damage, so I suppose heals and giant tanks should be used to combat this. I appreciate the advice!
