    Defense building: Lightning rod

    With the introduction of oil, was thinking a defense against a pure lightning raid might be warranted. Only one could be built so as to not completely neuter the spell. And/or make it similar to an expensive trap that you have to repurchase after use.

    Regards.

    I really like this idea, like a ton actually. Im sick of getting three lvl 4 lighting spells to my de storage and have it set me back another two days. You should check out my new thread on Clan battles and let me know what you think

    If it turns out to be a trap, which I think is better, then instant. OTW, I'd say similar in construction to Air Def which is also a specialized def.

    Just give tesla a special ability, when it's zapped by lighting spell it gets overcharge ability and attack multiple targets at once or lightning bounces on multiple targets. Absorb nearby lightning strikes

    Isn't that stupid ?? An attacker giving the defender the edge.....

    I am against this be oz one of my main reasons is I sometimes use lightning spells to obtain dark elixir.... But not a bad idea making it expensive... I also feel that this would upset the looting of dark elixir a lot and would render lightning spell kind useless...

    Better than getting 100% by lvl 6 troops.

    I like this version, in this way a defender is forced to defend his elixier and has to leave other spots open. Or he leaves DE unprotected by defending other buildings/ areas with his tesla.

    I don't think the way to get DE should be by lightning up someone elses DE storage as it invovles 0 effort and you can't defend against it. Lightning should be a tactical spell you are using against cc or to take out some defenses... not to loot.

    Its an Idea

    Can't really say i'm for or against it, every once and awhile people zap me for my dark elixir but more then half the time I do the same on revenge. I also have used it quite a few times in a battle. I think if it is implemented it needs to not be permanent like traps and bombs and relatively expensive depending on the number of hits it can take. But it is an interesting idea.
