    I'm not having any problems acquiring it with an army. I just don't think it should pay that much on defense

    I was thinking maybe a dark elixir storagw level 7 that's made of rubber and impervious to lightning spells, no need to upgrade capacity, just to offer some protection against cheap attacks.

    Or perhaps a defense option, similar to xbows or inferno towers. Like an option that makes it more resistant to lightning but more susceptible to other damage that you can turn on/off.

    3 cheap attacks should not cost me half a day's dark elixir production especially when the attacker is making no effort to destroy my village.
    Honestly, although i have been the person with the lightning spells once or twice, i agree. We all hate to lose dark elixir, but for lower levels like me, it is much more scarce, so we will do anything to get it. A lot of us are jealous that higher level people are making a lot more elixir per hour

    My friend a th9 zapping like hell everday bring about 4 lighning spell and boom

    i do that a lot when i a th7 for barb king but dont use it when in th9 well 30k de for barb king is hard and zapping is not really good my friends stop upgarde lab bcoz of it

    i like the idea for resistant/barrier storage
    but need more balane on that how bout if any normal attack land the storage automaticly destroy with chain reactor the mines

    so any attack land on your storage all your availble resources gonna be stolen

    just for balancing system

    Your "WORKING" for that loot bro. Its a game no ones comparing it to real life. Zappers are little nothings to me. I have a TH7 acct and ive never zapped a DE storage. I put in work for mine. MAN work.

    Something was already done when this was a real issue, its over and done with problem has been sloved. They already added extra hitpoint to all levels of the DE storage in previous updates.

    Just be happy they did something about it already.

    Just move to a higher trophy lvl. I used to zap a lot when I was th7; I don't think there should be a change.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with looking for further improvement that's what the forum is for.

    Can you post your defense log? I'm curious to see why people seem to get zapped so often while I get zapped no more than twice per 30 defense logs usually

    What TH and trophy level OP, I bet that would explain a lot!

    I just have 80,000 de in my storage. I have 2500 available to be taken in one attack. I haven't been zapped, except for maybe one bolt a month ago....

    Still have 60,000 and haven't been zapped. Been attacked several times in the last 24 hours, no zaps.
