Unhappy with the Resource Protection Update?

[DESTRUCTIO]

Well, I'm gonna get straight to the topic. When the update came out removing the advantage of lightning spell in damaging storages, I was pretty disappointed. That's because Lightning Spell was pretty much the only way I farmed Dark Elixir which is mostly in the center of one's base. So, I just wanna know how many of you share this disappointment and how many think that the update was for the 'Greater Good' or whatever? Am I wrong on being so dependent on the lightning spell?

i also depended on the spell too much

To all those who say, learn how to farm etc:
You are just as lazy as the zappers. You hang out in silver to barch-farm the collectors of the dead bases.
why dont you push up to G2+? for sure you face tougher opponents, but you wont get zapped there.
you could have been adapt and push up, but you choose the easy way and whine on the forums until SC chnaged it.

I think the trophy-specific storage protecion is a good idea. so the player can choose:
easy loot in silver and getting zapped or "not so" easy loot in higher leagues and no zapping.
But for sure the lazy ones would whine again

Go up in trophy range to face tough opponents? I don't know if you're stupid or living under a rock but matchmaking makes you face similar town halls all the time. It doesn't matter where you go. You can't possibly compare real attacking to placing spells on a storage. Dead bases are not very common either, atleast for TH10. Sounds like someone's butthurt over the update and calling other people whining. No sense irony?

My mini account is th5 and the only spell at th5 is lightning so I will say zaping under th5 is good.

idek what to say to this

[Polaris]

who zaps a DE Drill?

In the right situations you can get far more from 3 closely situated drills than you ever would from storage. 3 full max drills hold 5400 dark, and there have been times barching where I find that ghost town with full drills hidden too deep to penetrate....3 zaps took care of that.

lol if you think barching dead base collectors is the way to get big DE. Just...lol

Zapping had a long time that it went without being removed. Now it's gone, and we can figure out other ways to get DE. It's the way of this game. Strategy is key.

then why are a lot of th9/10 hanging out in silver? why not push up to crystal/masters, where the bases are similar, and get the loot + a nice bonus?
Either all the silver 9s and 10s are stupid, for not taking the bonus, (what i dont think) or it is easier to farm in silver.
what is it?

Barching some DE from 3 maxed Drills can give you a nice amount, but for farming DE i use my AQ+ healer
compared to zapping, this is tactic seem to be OK, because it needs a lot of skill to use it
Just wait for SC to nerf it, when the crybabies start whining again

I can promise you the bases you see in masters and above are not the same ones you see in Crystal and below.

The matchmaking system sets you up against simular th levels. It doesn't take in account the progress of that base. A lvl 70 th10 is way different than a lvl 125 th10.

Also if you see the same bases in silver as you do in masters than why not good to masters and get the loot bonus too

As i wrote in the first page of this topic, removing zapping was a gift for all th10,9 who drop to silver.
But anyway it is also true that for farming de you cannot rely on dead bases. Finding A dead base with full lvl5,6 drills is scarce.
Based on my experience only one out of ten dead base has full lvl5,6 drills.
So you can farm gold,elixir in bronze but for de you should push to crystal3+.
