Wizard cook times too long, who agrees ?

Are some of you guys blind? Level 5 Wizard does 170 damage per second (255 per attack). That's about 12x more damage than a level 6 Archer. <_<

I bet you guys won't like it when your base is three starred 10x more often.

Anything below 5-6 minutes production time makes Wizards EXTREMELY BROKEN.

You need to compare vs same supply worth of archers.

So 4 archers is 80 dps, so they do half the damage that a wizard does.

However, 4 level 5 archers is 800 elixir and 1 level 5 wizard is 3500 elixir. That is 4.375x the elixir cost per supply.

Also, while archers are more susceptible to splash, wizards are more susceptible to single target damage, as you can only single target 1 archer at a time, making 4 archers take 4 shots, and 1 wizard only able to take 3 shots (156hp vs 56-65dps from most decently leveled TH8 defenses).

This gives you a trade off between the two, and the wizard SHOULD be the better unit, it is t2 and way more expensive.

I agree, 3m would be a good trade off between the two. You're looking at 45s per supply to build at 3m. That is double the build time of an archer and 4x the elixir cost of an archer. Seems MUCH more balanced than anything listed on the poll.

Bump, keep polling guys

So why aren't we being 3 starred by dragons or pekkas all the time? They take less time per troop slot to build than wizards. The simple answer is cost. Similarly, armies full of wizards would be extremely expensive. At a 5m training time, wizards would also take quite a while to be used as a full army.

The likely common use would be a few for extra fire power.

The main problem is why should supercell change the build time? As it currently stands, the high level players will gem the time anyways. This means that if they cut the time in half, they make less money. From their standpoint, it doesn't make that much sense.

amen! that's what im saying! wizards supplement the army making 10 min a reasonable time... keyword supplement! not make up entire army as dahimi wants it to be... try and be a little diverse with your army... and thoughts...

It's frustrating that wizards take longer than pekkas...

Yes a wizard takes 10mins and a pekka 45mins, but you have to compare vs housing space.

200 housing space, 8 pekkas, 6hours of build time

50 wizards, 8.33r hours of build time

It's ridiculous. They need to be dropped to 4 or 5mins

Totally agree. I was thinking to post something about this and you beat me to it. Wiz is powerful unit, no question about it but I don't make any because it is taking forever. It should be 5 minutes. Same thing for Balloons, it should be cut down to 5 minutes also.

This poll won't change anything.

You could make a poll asking for dragons to be 1 minute and would get 10,000 votes.

Poor analogy.

50 individual units would have a different attack pattern than 8 units. Basing your argument on comparison of housing space is equally boggling.
