Clash of Clans Holiday Update: It’s a Trap!

This was a holiday update?

This was a holiday update?

Woah I just noticed this

[Yashar]

To be honest ill like the new air bomb, but I think that minion HP should be increased slightly to counter it. And really, the air bomb is hardly cheaper than it used to be, so I don't get the complaints

I have no problems with air bombs. My main complain is about "Seeking Air Mine" and its low cost 15,000 gold. now everywhere is full of them and just one of them brings down a lvl4 healer !

[Adamsaking]

Let's do some math. For a guy who uses Giants, healer, wall breakers, & archers @ Lvl 5 his army costs him 75k elixir. Level 4 rage 30k ea, now say you hit a target with 200k each & it takes all u have...hmmm 165k elixir in one single attack. Using gold for spells balanced it because gold is a commodity that no one want to use. Now elixir is the commodity & gold is in abundance. Using gold & elixir put balance in the game so if u happened to use it all you still came back with a decent pull. I was pulling 300k a run now I'm my seeing the loot anymore. Better to have an abundance of elixir that u can't really use except to keep us all attacking & enjoying the game.

Clash of Clans Holiday Update: It’s a Trap!


Reworked traps

✔ Sick of puny bombs? Upgrade all of your explosive traps to blow up your foes big time!

✔ Even sicker of constantly replacing your traps? Traps now stay put after use, and can be fully re-armed with a single button!

✔ Level 1 Giant Bomb is now much cheaper, though with a slightly decreased damage radius that can be upgraded

✔ Bomb and Giant Bomb explode faster after being triggered

✔ Seeking Air Mine and Air Bomb trigger radius has been decreased

✔ Seeking Air Mines now cost Gold instead of Dark Elixir

Why?

Replacing traps always took a lot of time, and we’ve certainly experienced that ourselves. In this update, traps will remain right where you placed them, even after they are triggered. You will be able to rearm, and also upgrade your traps (besides spring traps). We believe this will make for more challenging raids while improving your chances on defense. If you’ve been avoiding traps, it’s time to be blown away!

Tier 1 terror in Town Hall 10

✔ Level 12 Archer Towers: stylish, deadly and oh so sharp

✔ Level 6 Goblins: never forget your wallet again, nor anyone else's

Why?

The Level 12 Archer Towers may look a bit different than in the Android release video! Level 6 Goblins were one of the most requested troops out there, and we’ve added this epic gold monger for TH10.

Unquenchable spells

✔ Get your spells in a snap! Spell factory boosting is now only 20 gems for 4 hours of boosting

✔ Spells are now created with Elixir instead of Gold

Why?

You wanted an improved, and more useful spell boost. We felt that a 4 hour boost would be effective for those going on offense. We’ve also seen that for players of all levels Gold was hard to come by, while there was an overabundance of Elixir. Elixir is now for attacking, gold is for upgrading and defending your village! We wanted to make that division quite clear!

Clan and Interface improvements

✔ Players who are kicked out of or rejected from clans are automatically banned from that clan for 24 hours

Why? Adios, spammers. This frequently requested addition will help by making it easier to run your clan. Leaders and Elders can use "Invite" feature to get a banned player into the clan.

✔ Tapping the active tab in the Inbox, Chat, Clan, Leaderboard, League or Search view will automatically scroll it to the top

Balance tweaks

✔ TH loot multiplier is now capped at 1.5, even against 3 TH levels above or higher

Why? We believe this will help higher level players hold on to more loot. Specifically, it will address the issue of higher level players losing DE to lightning spells, making this strategy much less beneficial.

✔ Slightly increased hitpoints for level 4 Dragon

Why? Increased trap usage after this update, especially with seeking air mines, means our flying friends need a bit of a boost to remain viable.


✔ Slightly increased hitpoints and damage for level 6 Giant and level 4 P.E.K.K.A

Why? They are tons (literally) of fun to use, but haven’t been used much in raids lately. These changes make them even more hefty. Give them another look!

✔ Slightly decreased hitpoints for Hog Riders

Why? Combined with shorter fuses on the bombs and a decrease in hit points, Hog Riders will be easier to make into bacon, and everyone (except for vegans, vegetarians, pescatarians, the religious, etc.) loves bacon!!! This should lead to players having to be a bit more strategic with their Hog Rider pals.

✔ Upgrade time reduced for most Archer Tower and Wizard Tower levels.

Why? Level 6 gobs for one. And because “slow is good” may be a company mantra, but doesn’t have to apply to defense upgrades.

Is there anyway possible to keep the spell factory boost at 1 gem for 12 hours? 20 gems for only 4 hours isnt the best deal.. At least lower the amount of gems for only 4 hours of boost for 4 gems. A gem for every hour. I believe that is fair and so does everyone else on the game I am guessing.

[Fandral]

If the Spells are now created with Elixir instead of Gold isn't a good ideia because is very spensive and isn't more a option.

[RiDdLe]

Seeing those Xbows shooting gold coins and all the goblins scattering to try to collect them....

I do see his point though. Using elixir to load defensive devices goes against the latest changes. Not sure how to reconcile that, unfortunately, and have it make sense. Maybe have them be loaded using gold and then just make a change to the description to say that you need to pay for ammo for those and the IT's?

Yeah, I was thinking something like that ... but I'm ok that X Bows and Inferno towers are filled with elixir, since I'm having 8m like everyday, with a TH9 with no more elixir to spend :P

[pocketsmcjammy]

Not only have I hit "end battle" numerous times but I have even managed to end the battle properly due to frenzy of stress as having hit "end battle" accidentally. This needs fixing please

Here's my feedback on the interface,
I noticed that the surrender button is not at its usual place,
I prefer the previous location,
Because i feel now i'm more likely to mis-hit that button.

[cws]

But I use the X Bow for defense ... So should be filled with gold, since everything that use elixir is for attack. SC said very clear when they explain why the spells cost elixir and not gold anymore.

Don't forget it takes Purple to upgrade gold mines and storage both not for attacking so the entire Elixir is for attack really isn't true but simply spin.

Once again I am growing gold I have caught my elixir twice now, my elixir has leveled out but makes no gains while it's GOLD GONE WILD!
It costs purple for MANY MANY NON-ATTACKING THINGS, if you are going to leave spells as elixir then at least take all the village upgrades from camps to lab to barracks and allow them to be gold upgrades. They are all infrastructure in reality.

I've made no growth in elixir since the update, I have doubled my elixir totals with my gold in the same period. Since supposedly gold was already LOOOOOOWWWW and all loot was LOOOOOOOOWWWW because of the update because everyone is spending more on goodies.

So how is it that I am making gold hand over fist, if it was low and everyone was spending it into the ground????? While at the same time elixir growth is nill. I use giants, and other cheap troops for attacking I'm very frugal trying to keep my costs down in order to max my profit.

Except for taking GREAT pleasure it nailing dark elixir I don't use spells anymore so my costs are low 50-60k usually and because I have no spells I am not overrunning villages and thus not always taking out the elixir. So I'm spinning my wheels, so basically I have to tell the clan I can't donate troops anymore since I can't afford them and my army, so whats the point being in a clan then?



One other thing, why is it that a couple of players who are high ranked on my revenge list are always in game or shielded, are they somehow having someone attack them right away or are they really spending a ton of gems each day to shield themselves? I've tried for a week to attack one player and moments after I checked them and they were in game they were suddenly shielded.

Some people in the top recently joined a clan called "Retired Clasher" saying:

"SCELL...due to the latest update and revenge rules some top player in the game are considering retirement..latest update (2*TUMBS DOWN)"

What have been changed? Or what are they talking about?

Supercell has changed it so you are not allowed to revenge attack when at 3200+ trophies. Some "top players" where using the revenge function and an alternate account to attack themselves and leave at 40% giving them a defensive win and some more trophies.

The "top players" are angry because they aren't allowed to ♥♥♥♥♥ and get free shields to rise to the top of the leaderboards quickly.

(Top players is in quotes because they didnt actually earn their spot in the leaderboards legitimately.)
