    Make dragons a wee bit smarter

    Sometimes I just don't understand these guys. Doesn't seem thier targeting systems work very well.

    For instance, I just did an attack. They are doing thier thing and then they come across an air defense and gold storage side by side. The AD of course is shooting at them as they fly in. What do the dragons do...fly straight to both and then turn left to start attacking the storage instead of what's shooting at them. Needless to say....poof...dragons go bye bye.

    One would like to think that if you're being fired upon, you are going to go after what is attacking you right?

    Hmmmmm

    Troops in general!

    I had a battle that my 3x Giants had a choice between a Crystal wall, a Gold Wall, and a Steel wall. My Giants were pounding the Crystal wall!:eek:

    Archers shooting a wall to breech and there is a hole 3 sections wide BEHIND them!!!

    Barbs attacking a Elixir Collector while being killed by a Cannon next to them!


    The list goes on and one how stupid our troop AI is. Shouldn't some Intelligence be included with the Artificial?

    I think the Dragons are too strong to be also smart.

    If they have those logic, then you can win almost every attack with 3-4 dragons.

    I have this problem while farming all the time, they choose the skull or purple wall over the pink or gold wall, just seems stupid to me. Never have i witnessed one of my attacks where they attack the weaker wall.

    yeah, make them smarter by making them carry 2 wall breakers with their hands/ claws, and a PEKKA riding its back so when it dies it crashlands like kamikaze then PEKKA jumps down to wreak havoc on enemy base

    Its not just random bad luck. The dragons select targets in reverse order of common sense. They will even fly past a TH or AD to hit a CC or storage located just past it. But before this gets too criticized we have to remember that before they took dragons from being random to being intentionally stupid (and then after that even stupider) they were way too powerful and this feed was filled with cries for SC to do something so mid range bases weren't just getting crushed by dragon attacks every time.

    I think they did the right thing and what it meant (to me anyhow) was that it was time to start learning more strategies than just dropping a mass of drags on guys. For what its worth, that has been more fun and challenging to figure out than just doing the fire and forget approach with mass drags.
