The 49% Fail

[nas]

Hi All,

I am almost certain that everyone has had one of those 49% loss in a battle. This is very irritating and can lead to a lot of anger (I am sure phones and tablets have been broken/smashed).

I have lost many times at 49% as I Barch a lot. This happens a lot when I have 1 or both heroes upgrading.

However, I have noticed that at times, a defensive building will give me 2%. Other times, the same or another defensive building gives me 1%. This is evident when I have last few troops or lightning spells remaining and according to the calcultations, it should give me 50%... However I end up losing with 49%.

Now my question is... Is there some sort of fix when it comes to 49% losses? Why does the building percentage change when so close to the 50% win?

Thoughts would be much appreciated.

No I have never lost attack.

Never.

When barching carry a lightning spell or two for these exact instances. Some bldgs count for more. One lightning is enough to take out a builder hut or a hero pad for that last percent. Two lightnings will take out a mortar for usually 2%.

Glad to hear I am not alone. 50% means 50% of all buildings and Hero pads, so the first building you destroy is 2%, but 3 buildings may be 3%. What I have noticed at the very end and I am using lightning to get that 50%, 49% is 1 more building, 48% is two buildings, 47% is two buildings, 46% is four buildings. Good luck!

it sure happened to me a lot... always frustrating...


even worse... in our last clan war 2 of our first attack ended at 99% with one star and a tiny bit of hp to the th... a third attack also failed with one hit for the second star... all were made by the same person and his mini account... (i've never seen him rage like that)

To get 50% on a TH 10 it takes 40 buildings to destroy. Make with that what you will.

each building counts for a certain percent. when attacking a th10, let's assume the th10 has all buildings constructed and 5 builder huts. each building counts for 1.25 percent..

So destroying buildings would give you 1%,1%,1%,1%,2% repeate since it can only give round percentages.
