    It shouldn't take a builder to upgrade walls

    I think in a future update it shouldn't take a builder to upgrade walls since we(clashers) get no exp from upgrading walls.. Thought?

    From my understanding, XP is based on the time it takes to upgrade. Since a wall upgrades instantly, it gains no XP.

    It used to not take a builder to make a wall, they changed it to requiring one.

    The reason is people were dumping gold into wall while still maximizing their upgrade times.

    Now, if you want to have the option to dump gold into your walls at any given time (which is exactly why you wish you didn't need a builder to do it) you have to delay an upgrade for it.

    For instances myself, right now I'm sitting on 3 Million gold. Why? Because all by builders are busy. I decided to get my 5th builder working rather than save one to dump walls into. That choice leaves me open to raiders. Otherwise, if I had the option, I absolutely would dump my walls and get 6 level 8 walls to add to my collection.

    That make less gold in storages for us to raid.

    As much as I fear the loss of gold, I understand and accept the concept of vulnerable resources being a major factor in this game....

    Requiring a builder brings balance to the game. Plain and simple. You wouldnt like it too much if you could never farm any gold ever...

    Yes good point BUT I think we should get some incentive for spending 500k gold on one wall

    Well said. I wish more people understood this concept. Too many people just want things to be easy without understanding the real impact of the changes.

    I don't know if this is ruled out but I agree we should get an incentive.

    again balance people..

    two incentives, one status. second it limited the type of attacks and raid compositions that will be successful towards you.

    Yea i was thinking the same thing it is kind of stupid that if you have no more builders left that you can upgrade walls yes i understand that it might make it a bit more realistic but still i argree with you on this you should not have a builder to upgrade walls it dumb hard and at some times it gets in the way so 5 stars on this one.

    So walls can magically upgrade by themselves?

    That is sort of weird.
