Best Way To Put A Stop To Zapping

[yathan64]

Has anyone thought to revenge the zapper and zap them back? I know you probably won't get it all back, but it's still an option.

I've done that and got more than what he took

I'm getting tired of deleting half of threads because of trolling and personal attacks.
I pity the next person who posts something offensive, insulting, off topic or flamey.

This has been suggested for ever and SuperCell have not done it, so fair to say the lightning rod will never happen.

However I recently posted a new idea on the issue, making storage loss more realistic. The more you damage it the better return you get.

So if you bolt ONLY you don't get much, but if you damage it first and then bolt it - you get a big return. It helps encourage smashing the whole storage for loot.

And this idea does not negatively impact the lightning spells ability to damage buildings in any way shape or form.

Have a read!

-THE PROBLEM-
EVERYONE HATES DARK ELIXIR ZAPPING. Let's say I have 19,900 DE and I need 100 more for a Barbarian King upgrade. I'm a TH 10 and a TH 8 finds my base and uses 3 lightning spells on it. Due to LOOT PENALTY, He will take about 2,000. SERIOUSLY SUPERCELL? IVE BEEN PLAYING THIS GAME FAR TOO LONG FOR THIS ♥♥♥♥!!! I understand that every game has its ups and downs but this can easily be done in the next update.




-THE SOLUTION-
This has been proposed a MILLION times in the forums but you guys take like 5% of our feedback! the one that benefits you! HOW ABOUT THIS :
We get things call "LIGHTNING RODS" that prevent a certain building from suffering damage from a lightning spell. You get 1 at TH8 and 1 at TH9 which equals two and maybe 1 at TH10. YOU COULD put it in any building but it would be mainly used for your Dark Elixir storage. How hard is it to make an update that allows you to put lightning rods on your buildings?


THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING THIS

Just upgrade your DE storage, more hit points = less taken

I hate this idea, takes a huge stratagy component from the game, is to OP, and it's not like you don't have the ability to do it to others, so I don't see your problem.

There is nothing wrong with zapping Dark Elixir storages. If the attacker is willing to lose trophies and elixir (from paying for lightning spells) to get dark elixir, then that is fine.
What if they need 100 more for an upgrade? I would do that if I had been saving up and needed a little more.
Sure, it is disappointing to log in and see that someone zapped you, but that is the whole point of the game, to save up and steal from other players.
