    Thumbs Up Hog riders need to be nerfed more

    Hog riders are still overpowered and giant bomb and heal spell won't kill maxed out hog riders. Besides they can jump over walls and are fast, cheap and target defenses. They still can't be stopped until and unless we setup dual giant bombs and if they can be easily defused which many players do by after ghosting and then they become unstoppable again. I think they need to be as slow as giants and do much less damage. Guys any thoughts?

    Absolutely NOT. Hogs have already been reduced to a novelty troop at best, only useful in wars where you can scout a base ahead of time and know they will work. Hogs are the easiest troop in the game to plan a zero star defense for (provided you are high TH8+). More nerfing of hogs will make them as useless as lightning spells or healers.

    So the problem isn't the hogs, it's the ghosting. Suggest a fix for that. Or support one of the other suggestions already made to fix it.

    Just because some people ghost doesn't mean hogs need to be brought down. Supercell does the math. They are unlikely to make mistakes on a troop such as the hog rider.

    Hogs are far from OP, even at Max level.

    My base routinely puts mass Hog attacks to 1 star. Yes, you have to use the double giant bomb method, that's the whole purpose of that tactic. I rarely get 2 starred even from high level TH10s.
