Upgrading walls with elixir

[mrtommyvu]

Hello, clashers! I'm not sure if this topic is already discussed, but I shall talk about it now.

I have not heard a single person saying: ''YES! They made walls upgradeable at level 8 instead of level 6.''
The level of my frustation because of this is through the roof. I do know the reason why they did this but the change that they made was one of the worst possible solutions, in my opinion. Again, I have not heard anyone complain about being able pay walls with elixir, before or after the winter update. The way it was before was perfect.

If a player has too high level walls, i just try to get the resources outside of the walls, or I click ''next''. Simple. As. That.
Many people do not upgrade their walls to their maximum level anyway.

If changing it back is still a concerning choice for some reason, there are some things that Supercell can do to counter-balance it while still bringing the level 6 (7 is fine as well) elixir wall upgrades back:

1: Decrease wall hit points
2: Make ground troops stronger
3: Make walls more expensive

Number one is probably the most logical one, number 2 and 3 can be quite complex. Or of course you dont need to bring any of these three changes at all.

You could also make it that upgrading level x-wall with elixir is only available at a specific town hall level. Town hall 8+ would probably be the best one. (x= maybe 6 or 7)

If you don't want Supercell to change the walls back the way they were before please respond and tell me why.
All in favor who wants the lvl 6 wall elixir upgrade back say 'I'

I. To me, it is unfair to just change something that isn't even an issue to begin with, especially when you started the game with the option to upgrade to wall6 with elixir. For me this is just really unfair, cuz the earlier players were able to upgrade it with elixir, and us new to this game won't be able to. I just gotten to th7 just a month ago.

Im actually new in this forum, so im not sure how everything works yet. There are some posts relating to this same problem, but I wanted to talk about this anyways and the post I saw were pretty much complaints only.

It was "unfair" for them to make elixir for walls possible in the first place. It was never possible until last September and it created a HUGE problem. It was partially rolled back in an effort to fix the problem. Nobody was ever able to use elixir for walls except for a few short months that nearly killed the game. It was a bad idea, SC realized it, and I hope they roll it back to lvl10+ walls or implement one of the "must have XXX elixir stored before you can spend it on walls" options. Either would work.

I shout out - YES!!!!!! They did a mistake by giving elixir walls at level 6.

It already is the way it was before. Before you could not use elixir and it is that way again. You talk like history only started in September.

thanks for responding iceageg. How did the change nearly kill the game? You never explained that.

I dont follow you. Before the winter update walls lvl 6 upgrades with elixir was available. Now it is lvl 8 and up. I just said it in the post.

Since the beginning of Clash ONLY gold was used for walls. Last September they made it possible to use elixir for lvl6 and higher walls. It was a HUGE disaster that nearly ruined the game and drove many players away. The last patch SC changed it back to gold only until lvl9 walls. It is proving to not be enough of a rollback but it was a huge step in the right direction.

Elixir for walls was a very short experiment in the history of CoC and will never come back without a buffer system that forces people to fill their storages before they can spend it.
