Loot Penalty Based on Level

[acf99oc]

Im just throwing this idea out there, I thought of it this morning and I'd like to see what the rest of the Clash community thinks.

Of course, loot penalties and premature town halls are some of the biggest problems with the game, and I think most of us knew that. If you are new and don't know what the loot penalties are, check out this great thread by Zach, and if you haven't heard of a premature town hall, Hannibal's thread here explains it pretty well.

My idea is this - loot penalties by level. Your level is the blue star that got replaced by the league badge in lots of areas. The level doesn't have much purpose, except to act as a guideline of how well-developed your base is. This number can be influenced by donations (*ahem* Sneakydave), but it is a good symbol of how far you have progressed.

This is where my idea comes in. Your level, not your town hall level, shows how far you have progressed. If loot penalties are based on level, you would truly be attacking fair opponents. Since premature town halls are much lower levels than maxed ones, they wouldn't get 3-starred all the time with no penalty.

The biggest problem is donations. With this method, high donators would be pushed higher in levels and become like the prematures, but most likely a less extreme difference. You can't punish people for being the most active and helpful. Also, Sneakydave would have to endure 5% loot forever up in the 200's.

Ya, i was th7 and level 66, with level 4 troops, i wouldnt be getting any reward for maxxing out my town hall, so I personally dont want this changed

I don't really see your point. So you are saying a lvl66 TH8 will be able to crush a lvl66 TH7 without penalty? Because a maxed TH7 is probably just as strong as a new TH8 that wasn't maxed (and doesn't have lvl5 troops yet, that makes a big difference).

let say i go to noob clans and spam giants and go up 20 levels. then what? its a breakable system.

The problem with the system is that donations would increase your level, exposing you to other higher levels. People wouldn't want to do that.

Uh...

This wouldnt work for me.

so no.

Any system that penalizes people for donating isn't a good idea.

If something like this was to be implemented, donating would have to be taken out of the xp calculations and another reward for donating would have to be added (the level is the reward now)
