How to (mostly) stop zappers

[QandAclash]

Okay, so many people have been complaining about zappers. Simple solution? Go to crystal and above and there will be hardly any of zappers there. Just don't go anywhere near crystal 2, as zappers will be there, so try crystal 3+1. Okay, there are a few th10 dark farmers that will do your base in bottom to top, but if you have a strong base you can prevent this. Let me know what you think and add more to my list of better situations up in high crystal

You can never stop zappers, but you could probably reduce the probability of getting struck by one.

1.) Staying in a trophy region where people would be more interested in hitting your townhall. (e.g Gold 1, people(kids) would desperately be hitting th for the trophies to get up on crystal)

2.) Queue up dark troops in your Dark Barracks to reduce the 'Available Loot' your invaders see, potentially detering zappers.

3.) Stay online xD

Go to sub 200 or sub 100.

I'm now in C2 around 2200 trophies for quite some time now, and I'm still getting zapped sometimes!
Zapping shouldn't be just reduced, it should be stopped completely, as it ruins the main concept of the game, which is:

If you get attacked and loose too much resources, you habe to improve your base, so you won't loose that much resources!

This is the main concept behind the attacking of other players, but as you are COMPLETELY UNABLE to protect against zappers, this concept doesn't apply to zapping, which ruins the game!
It's always not about reducing zapping, but preventing the game from loosing it's deepest concept!

1)
Sub 200 isn't great for th9s.
2)
The higher you go the less likely you are to get zapped
3)
Out goes your th

Zapping is just another way to get dark elixir. This next part is honestly true!
Personally, I CANNOT remember getting zapped in gold 1, where I usually farm. I don't know why, as I will mostly have 1000+ to steal, and I usually get attacked by fellow giants attackers.

I'm a th9 in gold 1 holding 56k as of now. I'm not getting zapped here either.

Lose not loose. And no its a part of the game. If they zap you dragon raid them. Don't get rid of an aspect of the game because it's not fair. Life isn't fair

1. Stay low
2. Use all your de
3. never keep them!

[SkyLiimit]

Stay low? I think staying higher is better for that.
TH9's can easily farm in Master1 or Champ, th out and you will get sniped for one cup 9/10 times.
No zappers there.

Masters is the place to be. In fact, there's so much DE in this range that zapping is counter-productive. The loot bonus is quite sweet at this range, so nobody would want to simply zap a DE storage and have no spells to guarantee a win. In addition, people would rather get the 3k or so DE, not just whatever they could zap.

Currently, I am in M2 DE farming. The only drawback is that you must have a decent enough base to fend off the DE farmers. If you have a weak base, you'd be the hunted.
