Air defence is WAY to overpowered

[Flare64]

I think air defense is overpowered definitely WAY to overpowered. well... a level 1 air defense does 80 damage! that is enough to take out a level 1 balloon in 2 hits! also a level 8 air defence (it's max level) does 320 damage a second! that is enough to take out a level 1 dragon in 6 hits!!!! no wonder most people never use flying troops! people are going to use healing spells instead of healers! giants instead of balloons and barbs instead of minions!!!!


it ought to start at 20 on level 1 40 on level 2 60 on level three 80 on level 4 and so on giving it 20 damage more each upgrade. then people will actually use balloons! and minions! and healers instead of the healing spell!


and people just might use balloons instead of wizards...

Just to let you know balloons are used way more then wizards now days... Air defence isnt over powered if you use your air troops correctly

Agreed, the air defense is not over powered. If the air defenses would be made weaker. People would get easy raids with air troops.

So you want it to be a "sort of defends against air defense"? It was made to wreck those air troops, and bloonions is used anyway, so they obviously aren't OP.

This may be a bit misleading since,

- Level 1 dragons will hardly ever run into Level 8 air defense
- "Most people never using flying troops" is probably applicable to silver league and below but it is one of the more common attacking strategies in Crystal and Master league.
- barbs and minions are no way substitutes of one another (BAM is one of the very popular attacking strategies)

You may argue that 12 max dragons and 5 max rage spell won't guarantee 1-star win at Master and beyond, but that's a whole different story.

people in gold and higher never use balloons they use wizards and valkeries and stuff like that. never balloons because wizards are cheaper and do heaps of damage ok guys!

I disagree. Air defenses are not overpowered at all. If we were given 5 or 6 air defenses, then they definitely would be. With lvl 6 balloons in my air setup, I can easily 3 star bases with lvl 4 or below AD. Lvl 5-6 is more difficult. Lvl 7-8 is a skip for me. I won't even use mass drags on lvl 7-8.

Not true. Balloons are incredible at lvl 6.

[Flare64]

at level 4-6 yes but lower is quite bad

I farm at Crystal and Master range...and I saw one person attack me with valkeries.
That's out of I don't know how many.
Balloons and Minions is probably the top 3 used strategy above gold range.
