It doesn't bother me and i'm actually looking forward to the change even though i've almost finished my zaps. The thing with elix is it does take longer to acquire than gold. You use spells and troops every attack whereas with gold all you're blowing it on is the Next button. It's not going to be everyone with zaps in a week, far from it. Farmers have a lot of elix because we have nothing else to spend it on but it will actually be slower to acquire than gold because of troops/spells. I can see a lot more using barch/bam and other cheap and quick methods of farming to minimise elixir costs and especially now there's lvl 7 arch and barbs coming...

Dang...never thought about that

My prediction for next sneek peek:
dragons lvl 5, and arch towers lvl 13

Then cannons would come along with them, right?

People hate losing resources. What do they do when they log off? they dump their resources into anything they can. The effect of this is seen when you're forced to skip through many bases in masters. And the ones who actually have decent gold in their storages are the ones with L9 walls with maxed defenses. very rarely do you find someone with ♥♥♥♥ walls (less than L9)/defenses with decent gold in storages. This is my experience sitting at 2800-2850 for 3 months.

OK, so now we have the ability to upgrade walls with elixir, and level 7 barbs and archers. What the heck are SuperCell trying to do with this game...

Are they trying to turn all us TH10 with maxed defences, back into farmers, clogging the lower cup levels and making like even harder for TH9 as we max out our walls?

Do they want Champs to be "user pays only", and Masters a loot wasteland that people only venture through on their way to Champs (assuming they can afford the elixir cost / immense time required to do it gem-free at low elixir cost)?

So far, this upgrade is just going to hurt anyone that's not near the end of their TH level... in particular early TH10 is going to become a nightmare of trying to save elixir, and early TH9 isn't going to be that much better...

[rjdofu]

Noticably less yes, but that's it. Not everyone is on the tail end of a TH9 or TH10 where the majority of their lab work and upgrades are done. I've been at TH10 for months now and still have to save up my lix to 7-8 mil all the time to keep working on my lab upgrades (only 2 left before the the arch and barb lv's). So yeah, outside of the TH9-10 who have been at it for a while, I think that lix will be as it normally is.

Again. This is about CASUAL gamers. A casual gamer doesn't just save 4-7mil lix in a week like hardcore farmers do so they DO have to save up for a week or more to get that next lab upgrade. That is fact.

The lix will still be there, maybe just not for those in higher leagues or lv development in the game.

What do you mean by that's it? What else matters more than that from your point of view? People save up elixir because they have no mean to dispose it other than training big troops to donate (which affects their raiding efficiency). \Because of the abundance of elixir, they'll have to spend it on upgrades of troops that they'll hardly ever use, simply because they have nothing else to spend on. Now they have a way to dump elixir (and benefit themselves), useless upgrades will be set back to prioritize wall upgrade aka. something that actually benefit them in the long run.

People WILL NOT save up elixir unless they have to upgrade a troop they need.

This is not about casual gamers, quote me where SC says it is. An update should be assumed to serve EVERYONE, it's not up to you to interpret its aim. Anyway, I don't know how many casual gamers you've seen so far, but 4-6 mil elixir in a week is seriously low to be considered an active player, heck even the pumps can give you around 3m a week from doing nothing. Not to mention that there're different level of casual players also, they're not the majority.

Farmer maybe fine, but this update will hurt trophies hunters who don't rely on gems for sure.

If this is what the new update is all about, goodbye trophys hello farming the boring barch trail. After the last update I started hating what this game has become, this must be supercells way of delivering the coup de grace.

Looking forward to the update.
