Simple way to fix lightnings on the DE storage

[BallzJr]

I know we've almost all felt the pain of losing DE because somebody triple lightninged your DE Storage. This is extremely frustrating and feels cheap because they're getting your preciously protected DE. Here is my idea: cap the amount of DE stolen by the lightning spells.

I think if there was a cap on JUST the DE Storage, that'd be fair (DE drill can zap as regular). Say I've gotten zapped by TH7/8 for almost a good amount DE before and I try and revenge and can barely get that much. By capping the amount able to be stolen from the storage, this takes away from the hesitant and controversial change of reducing loot penalty on revenges! Here is my idea in a small detail (there will probably be tweeks).

TH7: 200 MAX to be stolen by lightning spells.
TH8: 250 MAX "
TH9: 300 " "
TH10: 350 " "

When the storage is being lightninged, the HP still reduces at a normal rate and only the amount of DE stolen by the lightning changes. Again, this would not be implemented on the DE drills (you snooze, you lose) and does not reduce damage applied to the Storage, just the amount stolen. Let me know what you think about this idea and parts of it that you think should be changed! Thanks!

P.S. I know it has been requested before but I didn't see a SOLUTION like this before.

Damage is how loot stolen is calculated.

This is part of the game, some of which I septill use. When a TH10 destroys my village, sometimes my only ability to get even is to lightning as much de back as I can.

Max out your storages, it help. Other than that, keep an eye on them and revenge your stuff back.

No I hate your idea. Stop whineing! I will oppose every single thing that nerfs lightning spells. Don't listen to the farming noobs Supercell.

P.S I don't care what you think, I 100 percent support de zapping and think it is fine and fair.

Well this isn't for farming. The other day I defended twice, and lost less than 100 DE. then they lightninged my storage and stole over 700 DE. Thanks for the feedback though, don't know why you say I'm a farming noob.

A good point, and maybe fair for revenge, but I think when I can lose a LOT when defending because some people just drop 3-5 lightning spells and steal well over 1500 DE. That's not fair IMO. And I wasn't sure about the damage and how loot works exactly in the code, thanks for the info though!

You are probably a th8 or 9. You say that th7 zapping you. That means you are low in trophies. Pick on someone your own size before you go whine on the forums.

I was not whining but just stating an idea. I'm a TH9 and this game is meant to be competitive to destroy an entire base, no matter what TH level compared to yours. I think using a lightning spell to take a lot of loot isn't fair in my opinion and I stated an idea. Thanks for the kind feedback, though!

How can a th7 destroy a th9?

If a player wants to waste 5 lighting spells to take a 1000 DE let him go ahead. He's essentially trading 100,000 for 1000 DE. That's a big sacrifice and should be part of the game.

First off, most TH7+s have more than enough elixir.

Secondly, that's not the point. The point is that we LOSE DE without any way to defend it.
