You can't make loot unless you are constantly logged in. Please fix this.

[paddyflynn]

The biggest problem with this game is that once you get to TH 9, it is nearly impossible to save enough loot for an upgrade unless you are constantly logged in.

If you don't break shields it takes forever to gain loot through collectors, (even boosted ones) and when the shield expires, someone will steal half of what you gained. If you break shields, then you will get raided as soon as you log off, and lose whatever you made, plus have to spend money rearming your traps and towers.

The only way to really make loot in this game is to stay logged on constantly, which is hard to do if you have a life.

SC should address this issue.

Here are a few suggestions:

Collectors produce more.
Boosted collectors produce 3x.
Base is not raidable until a certain amount of time after logging off (so you don't have to keep swiping your screen while eating dinner/helping kids with homework etc.).
25% cap on boosted collectors.
Revenge doesn't break shield.
More single player missions.

Put your th outside and go farming, it is a game after all, the game isn't meant to be lived off collecters

Or you could switch to Hay Day.

How did I know that this would be the first reply? This doesn't work for a number of reasons.

First, if you have 4m gold, someone will go after your storages even if your TH is outside.

Secondly, if you leave your TH outside, you can't win defenses. You need to stay at a certain cup level to find good bases, and barchers need to win defenses to offset their losses from collector raids.

Now you're going to say don't barch. The problem with that is that this is a forum to suggest to SC how to make the game better for us. It is not a place to tell people they should adjust their play to fit with how the game is currently designed. If I wanted to know that, I would have posted in one of the advice forms.

Sure you're right 😂, you might as well upgrade to th10 to get infernos to protect your base then, cus apparently you don't like farming or don't know how and want to sleep on collecters, play as you please, but the game isn't meant to be lived off collecters, ask anybody, but if you want to play like that be my guest

If all you have to say is "Don't ask SC to change the game, change the way you play instead," then please ♥♥♥♥ and go somewhere else.

I beg to differ. I keep my th outside of my walls, and 95% of attacks against me are a simple th snipe. Even when I have millions of gold or elixir saved up, I will still rarely get full on raided, and that is what, 200k lost? Easily gained back in a couple of my own raids.

Maybe you are too high in cups? I stay at around 1500-1600 and it is a nice balance between good loot and a lot of snipers. I used to be in crystal but there were a lot more people going for full raids up there. Or maybe you are just unlucky when it comes to people finding your base? Either way, collectors are fine as they are.

And it is plenty easy to 50% a base with barch and still get loot, so dropping too low in cups shouldn't be an issue.

We all have lives too (well most of us anyway) but it isn't hard to find time to crank out maybe 4-5 attacks a day.

Idea is an idea, but you serve the idea/suggestion on unreasonable argument

Hope this simple tips can help you:
-Constantly losing loot is normal for everyone when they don't have shield, so it's own responsible to maintain your defense to minimize the losing
-TH outside is the most effective and simple strategy if doesn't help, try to adjust your league
-Adjust your storage position, losing 2 storage each is normal on TH 9, the problem come when someone feel greedy and naive enough to gather all of his storage into the center. Most of attacker are more like to hit the base with gather storage with 200k loot than 300k-400k loot on spread storage cause they can get all your resource in one simple raid to break your core
-If all of that still don't help then use the magic card to get that green jewel

Been sitting in M3-1 for over a month now and over 95% of my defences are still TH snipes and I have constantly had over 100K DE and close to 2 million gold and elixir in my storages.

No idea why you need to win defences to maintain trophies, why not just barch collectors and go for 50% as well?

Paddyflynn, this is not only a place for sc to make the game better, it is a public forum, where people debate on ideas, the ones people vote for go to SC, otherwise this wouldnt be a forum, you would send a mail to SC.
If you dont want people to take ur loot, go down leagues.
though i like the ideas like more goblin missions and the less loot available on boosted collectors

The game isn't meant to be easy anyway, as a TH9 you've progressed through most of the game, TH10 is another huge slog. If you want to get loot you have to farm, AKA using a quick training attack and raiding frequently. personally I'm BARCHing up at M1, I have up to 6 million gold and currently 85k DE, at this level 99% of people go for the TH as they're trying to get to champs. At whatever level you farm it doesn't matter, same principle applies.

If you want to gain cups put your TH inside, set up a defence base, after 2-3 wins your 60 cups better off! that will loose your loot, but its your call. Finally if you only have time for clash 1-2 times a day, your best bet is to attack in crystal/masters with a 'war' army, find a base with 300k+ of each resource and 3 star it
