Elixir for walls, please! -- we are drowning in elixir

[HiFliya]

Really lol I tested it like 5 times it works for me oh well learn something new everyday.


Holy ♥♥♥♥ that is just....wow -mind blown-

Yeah its different for every user. that's why there is this confusion when ppl post those links

right now it's an elixir flood and a gold drought. It's an over-correction. But you're not at this level so it doesn't affect you negatively.

Lol it was like this before. and I'm at the same level you are...TH8 with elixir in the bank. I just don't care.

It caused a severe drought at TH9/10, and the system still causes one for TH10s b/c Supercell's revert was just as lazy and not thought-out as the initial release was.

Do you plan on going to TH9 and TH10 eventually? If so, maybe take your time to think of ways that the elixir for walls system could be changed that will both fix the current situation at TH10 (i.e. actually fix/unaffect the economy at every TH level) and also allow for lower level walls to be able to use elixir on walls. That would be a hell of a lot more productive than spamming "GIMME BACK ELIXOR WALLS" that pop up 10 times a day and in the current system is a terrible idea.

I remember when people didn't cry about not being able to use elixir for low-level noob walls.

And that was only a few months ago.

I did a calculation. At TH8 it takes about 4 times as much gold as elixir (not counting army) to max out everything. About half of the gold is for walls. The result of this is that when farming at TH8 most bases have a lot more elixir than gold. It is getting harder, not easy, to get the necessary loot. It would seem as though the effort to 'balance the economy' (as Supercell stated when they removed the option of upgrading from walls lvl 6 to lvl 7) is not working well at this level. For myself it is making the game more tedious, and frankly, less interesting.

I request that supercell change it back. Many others at my level have stated the same frustration.

What league are you in I need some more elixir to upgrade my jump spell....

Try adding this to your calculation: the total cumulative amount of elixir you would have to spend on armies to to max out everything.

I also did a calculation and it is 4x easier to get loot at th8 than it is at th10, so deal with it.

If you have more elixir than you want to have, make troops and remove them. Simple as that--I have removed dragons (and used rage spells on the goblins) to keep elixir levels down for a while. You can easily spend a few million elixir over the course of a day or two by doing this.
If anyone is wondering why someone would want to not have a lot of elixir, would you rather raid a village with 100,000 elixir available, or 450,000?

[Crystalis]

did a search. didn't find it. that's why i made a new post. maybe it was removed because it was denied, i dunno, maybe i used the wrong search term. More importantly, maybe people keep posting it cuz they want it.

Not sure why you say it will ruin the economy -- did it ruin anything when it was available? Right now the th8 economy is suffering because of it.

Did it ruin anything? Yeah. It ruined the economy.
It's suffering? It's actually not, it's back to normal.
