Defending against Lightning spells on DE storage

[bsmittyau]

I'm on your side on this subject.

I was trolling the troll who has a th9 and gold walls.

Oh. Gold walls are super pretty though...

[Horus40k]

Yes there is.

Timing, choice of troops and placement of troops are skills. You may de♥♥♥♥ate them because you are tapping a screen, but that does not mean that they do not require skill.

Edit: Good grief, the ridiculous censor has infected the forum as well.

Lol
I was trying to work out what de****ate could be......

Just a few replies:

Media, I called you an idiot because you refuse to understand that just because a newbie may not know how to use something, that fact has no bearing on how much "skill" it requires or whether it is balanced or not.

"Refuse to understand"? Sorry, but that doesn't make sense. On the topic, you have yet to convince me.

I'd rather them take away DE than take away lightning.

[Ins]

Dunno what people moan about, if someone lightnings your DE thy have, or will soon have a hero. You now have the advantage of watching them progress and smack em for double or even triple the amount of DE they took just before they start the upgrade.

Paitence is a virtue folks, but it is also an awesome revenge

Im pretty sure nobody is recommending that they "take away" anything...a minor tweak could fix the problem.

Considering your apparent fondness for lightning...any chance you might be basing your decision on your personal preference rather than what actually makes the game fair?

I never claimed to master anything. Just that I have developed skill to become better at this game. I enjoy playing games of skill but not so much games of chance. There is no skill involved in dropping several lightning spells in the SAME place. This contradicts the overall balance of the game which in my opinion should be based on skill. Your revenge tactic only works if they are not online, don't have a shield, and have resources stored for you to raid. You're ignorant because you make the claim that this game isn't skill based. That is the viewpoint of ignorance or a gemmer. Which are you?

Ok your skills with English just missed me completely

Revenge tactics ..... Your clearly are an idiot then. How else can revenge tactics work
1. They can not be online
2. They can not have a shield running
3. You can visit them and wait for their resources to be there....

How does your revenge work then. Different from us normal players.

I always love idiots that throw out a two option statement and say " well which one are you"
I'm neither, but you have an overrated opinion of yourself and what your doing here. Just because you think your right does not mean you are
Your playing a game...

An if you read my post you would see I don't use lightening like you describe people, I merely said it was not unfair.
You then go down an ignorant rant just because I don't believe you have skills at this game.
No hand eye coordination, no puzzle to solve... It's just build, upgrade and raid and defend.

Make your life seem really exciting by claiming you have skills, I don't care if you believe you do or not. But you certainly care when told I don't believe we do
How is that ignorant, why because I dare disagree with you. That makes you ignorant. But if it makes you feel better. There, there, you are brilliant at the game, a master - what lvl and TH are you?


♥♥ thinks your a threads a winner..... What's that two or three warnings and a deleted thread ♥♥. Your opinion is not sooo welcome, why not get another thread closed

The tweak was increasing DE storage hitpoints and add more defensive weapons. And you can only loot 5% of DE storages as opposed to the normal 25%. Heros arent that fantastic anyway and if people would just build (and upgrade) their drills and be patient, those heros will be achievable soon enough. As for mortars, you have 3 and if someone pays enough for 4 lightnings spells (plus trainng time) its a net loss for them anyway.

If a player sends 11 dragons and rage spells at a base, it doesnt take any strategy (at least not for 99.9% of bases) and there is no defense against it. He is wasting respurces to do so anyway. Everything that is indefensible doesnt need to be changed, or else we would be able to finally construct a perfect base. That would be the ultimate inbalance.

Care to comment on no converting 1 resource to another? Or just conveniently left that out? :P

It clearly takes skill of where to place each dragon and when to release his rage spells.

I understand what your saying about converting gold into elixir.
Can I ask you a question in the same light please ?

If I build 200 archers and raid someone and my archers get to his DE and I raid his DE have I converted elixir into DE ? or merely raided with troops.( Add in each troop name for archer)
