New resources: Elixir Mixer!

[Secondsight103]

I was thinking of a new resource called the Elixir Mixer. It's a resource that could mix elixir and dark elixir to make a new substance (Ex. Gold elixir) which could either upgrade troops by one level in the barracks or dark barracks. Here are some stats


Elixir Mixer Level 1:
Elixir Generated per hour: 500
Hit points: 1000

Elixir Mixer Level 2
Elixir Generated per hour: 1500
Hit points: 2000

Elixir Mixer Level 3
Elixir Generated per hour: 3000
Hit points: 3000

Here are some names that could be used for the new elixir once mixed:

Gold elixir, Elixir X.

I was also thinking that you could load a Xbow with golden elixir, Elixir X, so that it could do like 2x or 3x damage.

That's about it. Thanks for reading this thread. Hopefully some people agree.

It's a bit too complex and not really necessary. It is neat, but what would it add to the gameplay? Will it make it more fun? How would you balance out this new influx of resource types? And how would you store it?

It is really easy to fall into using gemmics from other games because it was neat that they had them. But in a good game there is more to it then just a 'cool factor'. Often times such things had a lot more thought put into them by the designers than most people realize, which adds to them being so natural and right in some games, and so silly, superficial, or stereotyped when used in other games. Kind of saying this with some experience behind it, since I too came up with some really bad ideas on some game stories early on, since I didn't understand at the time as to that why some tropes worked so well where I saw them, but didn't work well elsewhere.

In short, we don't need anything more funky done with resources right now. Supercell wants things simple and easy to understand as possible with minimal instructions needed for a person to play and have fun.

Answer: Your Mom (OK, bad joke punchline. Just felt like I had to say it. Partly from a friendly sparing of 'Your Mom' insults with someone else.)
