    Exclamation Th8's using elixer to upgrade walls

    I think us th8's should be able to upgrade walls to lvl8 with elixer because when you max out elixer troops and buildings you have elixer sitting in you storages that is not being put to use and this attracts unwanted th9's to attack your base and 3 staring it. So with th8's being allowed to use elixer to upgrade walls to lvl 8 then th8's would have a use for unwanted elixer! Thanks for reading!

    Like you said, TH9s attack your base. They are there for the elixir you have. Your overflow of elixir FEEDS TH9-10. That is why they removed the ability to up walls with elixir from TH8. It is intentional. If you are able to spend elixir on walls, you have no elixir to give to the TH9's, making it impossible for them to get anywhere army-wise. It needs to stay as is.

    1000 times this

    When TH8 could use elixir on their L8 walls the economy was totally broken.

    Personally

    I think it was a mistake giving any but th 10 maxed walls the option to upgrade with elixir and would love to see it repealed. I'm not quite a mid level th8 myself and yes it is super frustrating to be constantly raped by th9/10 for my loot with zero recourse in revenging them.

    This idea has been posted before. Please stop spamming the forums with this.
    To get better at something is 80% training and 30% diet. Yes, that equals 110%, because that is exactly how much you should be giving it.

    At some point you will be a th9, and at that point, you will understand.

    Once you get Lego walls, you need 3kk to upgrade each wall. That's plenty of elixir to offer other TH9 and TH10.

    I agree somewhat. Legos should have stayed gold only. Lavas and Magmas for elixir.

    doubtful, but keep saying that to make yourself feel better. I also don't drop trophies to raid lower levels either. I'm also for much much higher loot penalties.

    If a brand new th9 can raid the 6 million required to upgrade a troop using th8 troops they can certainly handle the one and then three million required for walls. It's just that they want it now now now like little two year olds.

    to op I'm only almost mid level and half my walls are done. Do a few daily and you'll be fine. I spend any spare gold I have never leaving more than 300000 in my storages. Reducing your available loot won't stop the weenies that prey on lower levels, but they won't get nearly as much.

    it's not a matter of whether a TH9 can farm it, but how much is offered for others to farm off of.

    The lower the amount you can dump into walls, the less available for others to raid. Good for the individual, bad for the economy as a whole.

    That's why I think if anything were to be changed, it should be that elixir can only be used for Lava and Magma upgrades.

    ^this.

    Supercell tried "elixir for walls" at TH8 and it basically broke the economy. Sorry man, as a TH8 you're a net-elixir-exporter to higher level players.
    Don't dismay, unfortunate TH8s will feed YOUR elixir addiction when you get to TH9 and the cycle of life continues...
