Protection from lightning spells?

[rns]

When you are a low level town hall 7 wanting their barbarian king how do you expect them to quickly get their dark elixir.
Even when people steal 1k+ dark elixir by zapping, a decent player should be able to easily get that back in 2-3 raids.

and so far for being balanced... sure I can steal it back in 2-3 raids. But a, these raids have risk (i.e. not getting there) and b, it takes two or three raids, to balance the 1 risk free raid by the zapper. I agree to what has been said before: Zapping is not balanced and should be mitigated, same as a level 10th gets lower loot when fighting a level 8th.

Lost 6.4k de today... not impressed SC.

the fun of this game is to have so many possible combinations of attacking forces and if someone thinks that all lightning is the way to go then so be it. if you want your de back then use the revenge feature supercell added. its there for a reason

The widespread use of lightning spells to steal DE from far superior bases is very unfair. You can't defend against it. In trying to upgrade your heroes and dark troops you lose thousands of DE to people who would never be able to get through your base. It is seriously turning me off playing.

If you get rid of the ability to zap dark elixir, imagine how long it would take to get more! I think that without this it could take maybe 3× longer than it should. You guys are just too lazy to zap back

TH8s can't defend against level 6 giants. Th6 can't defend against a th7 barching it. th5 and below can't defend against anything. Welcome to Clash of Clans, it's not about being fair.

Besides, where am I supposed to dump unneeded lightning spells if not for people's overflowing DE storages?

Are you THAT thick headed? Or have you not read previous posts? 1: I am farming 2: because I am farming, I am at alow trophy level 3: because of that, everyone who uses the lightning spell on me are low level 4: If I want to revenge them, they are too low of TH to get any actual decent loot from.

Not necessarily zap revenge people, save that for the big army comps to take everything from them. otherwise, go out and just zap who ever has 600+ de for an easy 300-400 DE win. I think thats what he was talking about

Use them for taking out air defenses and mortars! What they were originally meant for! Stealing DE from higher bases with Lightning spell is something that should either be removed or have a way to be prevented, like my idea. It is a cheap trick that people use to get DE for their barbarian kings, while people like me are trying to save up 100k DE for lvl 6 minions. Which do you think is harder??
