Hog Riders --- Valkyries

[Ironfist]

So, just like that, the Hog Rider has become a really effective troop because Supercell changed the troop's power and got it to target defenses. But what about the Valkyrie? I still cannot justify upgrading her at all, in terms of using de that could be used to up my AQ.

What could Supercell do to the Valkyrie that would make her an effective troop?

Give her an actual special ability like other DE Troops

Minion - immune to the Seeking Air Mine
Hogs - Jump over walls
Golems - splits in two after dying and continues fighting
Witch - summons more troops

Valkyrie... None. Nothing. They have no special ability at all.

I should note that they make excellent CC defense troops since she can take out a whole army of Barbarians with a single swing and has lots of health so she can survive being swarmed up on.

It would be awesome if minions triggered seeking air mines

Actully she deals area splash but if you look at the others powers it relly nothing
They could make her primarily target cc troops and hero's

Summary

She needs to either have reduced training time or be made much much stronger.

1) Lower training time or serious stats buff
2) Faster attack speed - its a handicap for her
3) Making her splash more effective - either by making her target 2 buildings at once or by increasing the radius - only this second option may make her OP on defense.

She has effective health, but with the attack bonus to hogs ... well her attack seems small in comparison.

Nice ideas. Cheers!

Would be too strong.

Splash spin is hardly useful. At most it is useful for targeting multiple walls at once, but getting through one wall is sufficent enough. Plus, WallBreakers...

it is nice for defense, but useless for offense.

I think that she should also have another ability like having Healers be more effective at healing them. With their HP they could make good use of it.

X3 attack vs heroes and tier 3 troops?
