    Lowering the skip base cost

    It was already ridiculous enough to have 750 gold lost for every base skipped. Now that i've come to TH 10 there's a 1k loss for every skip? 1k might not be much to skip a base or two but evidently, bases that can be farmed off of are not easy to find at all in th 10. What is supercell trying to do with this button? Make all Th10 farmers rage quit? The upgrades are expensive as is and finding bases to attack are harder than ever due to the penalty. These i understand but what is up with the costly "next" button. That's just purely stupid!!! Its been a few days since i got to TH 10 and the loot i get in gold= the gold i spent skipping bases. I usually get around 200k gold loot but to find bases like such takes 150k with that stupid next button... Thats pure madness.

    I think they should half or 3/4 the price and change it to elixir.

    I think the max should be set to 500 because i seriously do not get the point of this... Maybe they just dont want TH 10 to farm and make the game imbalanced. It should be like 250 gold and 250 elixir each skip

    I believe that the cost should start where it is now and decrease with each skip.

    Something like the first 10 skips cost 100%. Every skip after that drops the cost by 5% until it reaches a floor of 25%.

    1 i dont think they are that advanced in making games and plus it would still be quite a lot, not as much but still a lot.

    Not that advanced? That is nonsense.

    The point is skipping should cost enough so that people are encouraged to attack more quickly, but not so much that it ends up becoming difficult to profit.

    I believe this strikes that balance. It encourages people to attack sooner than later, but also accounts for those periods where 100 skips are required.

    I dont think so. If people find the right bases to attack, in which they can profit, they will do it. If they dont, then any sane man would skip the base.

    If anything, the skip costs should go up as you use them. Just deal with it or don't skip as many bases.

    What does that have to do with what I said?

    With my system here is how the skip costs would look per TH level.

    Skips Old New
    10 100 100
    10 500 500
    10 750 750
    10 1100 1100
    10 1700 1700
    10 2500 2500
    10 3800 3800
    10 5800 5800
    10 7500 7500
    10 10000 10000

    Skips Old New
    50 500 228
    50 2500 1138
    50 3750 1706
    50 5500 2503
    50 8500 3868
    50 12500 5688
    50 19000 8645
    50 29000 13195
    50 37500 17063
    50 50000 22750

    Skips Old New
    100 1000 353
    100 5000 1763
    100 7500 2644
    100 11000 3878
    100 17000 5993
    100 25000 8813
    100 38000 13395
    100 58000 20445
    100 75000 26438
    100 100000 35250

    A very significant decrease in cost.

    Spoken like a true TH7. Someone who doesn't have any clue what playing the game at TH10 is like. How hard loot is to find or what the true costs of skipping are.

    You sir, by stating that show how big of an amateur you are. Once you get to TH 10 and start farming then you will understand the pain experienced up here. You have it easy down there. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find bases to profit from and how many skips it take? How dare you say that? You simpleton!
