Loot, League Bonuses and Trophy Offers <-- Discuss it HERE!

TH10 like myself will leave their TH outside to basically remain perma-shielded while picking off easily lootable TH9's or TH10's.

This is exactly how I WANT to keep playing!
I don't have time at the moment to play any other way and it allows me to take a few weeks or months off from the high cups struggle to just chill out and relax.
The good thing about clash was always the ability to drop cups and put out your town hall for a break from pushing while you upgrade or do something else and not have to lose all your loot.
Now it's going to be a struggle just to keep enough loot to build a army. If I keep getting hit 30% in order to get a sheild I'm not going to be able to replace that with the very limited time I have available to raid. Now a 12 hour sheild only costs me 1000ea which my collectors can cover and easily produce enough to fund a army every day or so and pay for a wall once a week or so. Now that's all gone I can see things getting unsustainable very quickly.
When presented with this issue all people seem to say is " but you can raid more often" but I can't as I barely have enough time to raid once a day now.

Makes Townhall most important building in map by:
1)Get one star and win by destroying it.
2)Now contains loot in it.
3)Gives you trophies
BUT STILL CAN BE DESTROYED QUICKLY USING GOBLINS

As someone who has solid defenses and does real attacks to progress this update is great from how I understand it. We'll see if it ends up good after it actually come out. It's going to be fun demolishing all these new bases available to me. Nearly every one of my attacks is +80%. Can't wait to see all the snipers finally have to play he game as intended.

oh...you macho bad ♥♥♥

A good number of people posting on this thread have either not read the full dev notes or have not grasped what is trying to be achieved here with these changes and how it will affect Clash as a whole. In isolation the three sneak peeks released so far would be problematic for the way Clash is currently being played, however with all three changes combined it changes the way your average clasher will attack a base and therefore how much loot will be available to all players across the board.

For example in the old system, say for the sake of this example that at any given time there were 1000 bases available to be attacked in a particular league. 80% of those bases had their TH outside and the other 20% were inside or dead bases. In the old system a single person looking for loot by sniping could attack 5-20 of those bases that might contain a lot more loot but all they care about is the loot bonus, therefore shielding a perfectly "lootable" base and taking it out of range of other attackers. With the new system, a dedicated attacker may now only shield 3-5 of these types of bases leaving others open for looting.

This might not happen as I've suggested but I think given time (and actually waiting to see what happens when the update is released) this system will prove to be a much more fun improvement over the current one where a TH10 like myself will leave their TH outside to basically remain perma-shielded while picking off easily lootable TH9's or TH10's.

this is the problem...might contain....how if there is shield to help to gather any loot for your next update.....but you right....let's wait and see

And what was wrong with obtaining sheilds that way? I'm quite sure you have done it once or twice. I know most of us here have. And it is a strategy. Players put the town hall out as a temptation. Attackers don't have to hit the town hall, but players hope they do. They could just as easily sweep their base. And yes, there will be more bases to attack, but we have to attack them with war armies as we now dont get a high loot bonus from 1 star destruction anymore and people are forced to put their town halls inside. When you attack, you may end up losing money because of troop costs, and time spent on them (when you could've sniped 5 town halls in the time it takes to train them.) Now you tell me, how is that a benefit?

This is like saying I want the right to smash up other peoples bases, but not run the risk of having the same happen to mine. As they stated, that is not what the concept of the game is about. Perhaps you enjoy playing a game with no real challenge but most gamers would probably disagree.

And yes, I leave my TH out all the time, because I have no real alternative, as nearly all the other bases do the same. I think this is the update the game has been crying out for, for quite some time now.

Although I have used TH sniping a lot, from both sides, I was cautiously optimistic about the update until I saw the derisory changes to loot bonuses.

The increased amounts will nowhere near make up for the lost amounts from TH sniping. Which means the amount of lix available in the game will decrease hugely, and gold/DE will also reduce, though not quite as much (lix will be worse hit because in addition to less being injected, more will be spent due to larger armies being needed).

There are only two ways loot is created in this game - either through collectors (which aren't changing, unless there is something in a later announcement), or through multiplayer win bonuses. The goblin road also gives a small amount, but that is insignificant in comparison.

They have increased the loot bonus by 10% (actually, even that much won't be awarded for most wins, only ones where 70%+ damage is done), while reducing the number which will be awarded by at least 50%, probably more like 70-80%, based on my attack and defence logs.

I believe this update will wreck the game economy, and SC will have to fix it with an urgent update within a month or two. Either by increasing loot bonuses really significantly, or by increasing the amount you can get from collectors significantly (could be more generated at each level, or additional levels available, or more collectors available, any could work if done right).

I just hope that they fix it before too many people leave.

^^^^^ Spot on!

Hi, i am a max defence TH10, 95% Lava Walls Done, Lvl 40BK & 38AQ farming in master II & III, if i go offline for whatever reason for a small amount of time i use my pushing base and in 3 months i have been attacked in the first 30 min twice (2 really bad attack under the 30%). The only real attacks happened when i forgot to switch to my farming base (that has the TH outside) and always after some hour.
The point is : if i stay online for 3 hours (even if not attacking), collecting everything, then kicked out, wait 6 min then go online wait 15 min got kicked out and so on till the mercy rule applies and then go online for other 3 hour; i am exposed to an attack 3 times for 6 min each with no loot in collectors(when if my experience nothing really happens) so i am virtually hiding all my loot for all the time i wont, same to what happens now if i leave the TH outside and get sniped in no more then 10 seconds.

BUT you may say that you have a life, you need to work/study/sleep... get a very intelligent cat !!! or ... i really fear fluffy would be on the rise.

Nobody is attacking you now because almost everyone is having their TH outside to be sniped. This will change with this updated.. You will definitely be attacked more when your TH is inside compared to now, I guess it will still depend though on how much loot you have to grab.

it should be like this if they increase the league bonus

ex. master3 the bonus should be 100k gold/elix 500 de once you have 30% . it will increase based on the additional %
but what supercell suggesting 50% you only have 88k gold/elix 448 de. and 70% to have 110k gold/elix 560 de.. how can you say that the bonus significantly increased whereas in the old system once you 1 star the base you can have 100% bonus... it should be additional % once you 2 star or 3 star the base. maybe 110% in 2 star and 120% if 3 starof the bonus.
