Is the delay of the "end game" now a problem for clash?,

[pigeon1707]

Most grinding games (like mmorpg's) have a level cap at which point the play focus shifts. In a RPG, you become less focused on questing and more focused on gear.

I looked at town hall 10 as the "end game" of clash. This is where you have all the attack units and all the defense units, and you start to pay much more attention to base design, leveling heroes, etc. Plus it's the point where you can start truly defending yourself, where before you know you can be rolled over at any time no matter what.

Before th11, an active player could get to this th10 "end game" in about six months without being notably rushed. But now, th10 is the new th9. The end game experience doesn't start until th11. I would guess that for even an active player, th11 is a 2 year endeavor. So now it takes 4 times as long to get to "end game" as it did before.

I think this may end up being a problem for clash. 2 years is a long time to play as an underling.

WHAT ? are you nuts ? TH10 maxed in 6 month? what are you smoking ? want to max me a th10 account too in 6 months ? it takes like 16 months to have maxed def/troops/heroes/walls at least.
and for th11 are some ♥♥♥♥ty upgrades that takes a little time , like 1 new cannon/archer/xbow new lvl wiztower, eagle, lab, witch,minion, and the most time consuming the grandwarder, but still this is like 2 months max if you have the necessary resources. bye

I guess your thread derailed. But the majority of players do not understand rushing or how to maximise it. It takes a regular maxer 7 months to reach maxed th8 then another year to reach maxed th9. That's why people are in disbelief when you can reach th10 earlier

Based on my forum posts, I have to walk it back and say 8 months. I started hitting a wall at th9, and gave up at th10, so the year and a half it took me to max the th10 defenses is probably more in line with what everyone expects. And who knows? Maybe it was easier back then.

Because back then, th9 with purples isn't considered rushed, while a th10 with 15/15 royals is acceptable. These days, a th10 without lavas or 30/30 royals is considered rushed

Yes, I stated it poorly because everyone jumped to the same conclusion. I essentially said "ready for th10" in six months, "ready for th11" in 2 years, but no one read it that way.

Well then I'm still rushed because I haven't finished Legos and I'm 22Q/20K.

My real point was that the last year and a half playing was fun because it was the max town hall, and now it's just part of the grind. I can speak from experience that the game is more fun when you have the top base. For anyone starting now, 90% will probably quit the game before they get to experience that feeling. I think it's a shame.

I feel for you wendle, thread got ignored for a bunch of cheap bandwagon laughs.

I may make a thread with this same message.

I have 1 th 10 account not maxed, a th 9 account almost maxed and a th 8 almost maxed
my wife has 2 th 10 accounts, one almost maxed and one new, aswell as a mid th 9 account

it took us about 6 month to max to th 8
it took another 12 month to max th 9 only (heroes 20/20 and lvl 9 walls)
we are still working on th 10 since 12 month

so my conclusion would be that it takes 2 1/2 to 3 years to have a maxed th 10 base for the average player
by max th 10 I mean max heroes, walls, defense, every troop and each spell

I have been VERY actively playing since December 2013 and I have max defenses but only 20 Lv 10 walls, and hero's are lv 25/28/7 it will take me longer than ur prediction to max my walls and hero's definitely. And like I said I am very active.

That is why we experience this feeling tho.. because you are better than those 90% that quit. If everyone could do it, it wouldn't be impressive. I don't think it's a shame, it's their choice to quit, they obviously didn't like the game that much. People that get that far do like the game.

Not really i enjoy more my mini th8 war account than my stress farm base on almost maxed th9 .. (walls/heroes left)

It only takes 4 months to max 11 from 10 because 11 is only a half ♥♥♥ level right now. There's only a few things to upgrade at 11 if you were already at max 10. Once a full TH11 is made it will then take another 1-2 years.

Are you a TH11?
You are WRONG

1. You need to upgrade LAB to get new troops levels
2. You need to upgrade 4 defenses including XBOWS and tower, etc
3. You need to UPGRADE the STORAGES so you can UPGRADE your warden
4. You need to upgrade your STORAGES to upgrade your ARTILLERY
5. You need to build the artillery and then upgrade it
6. You need 20 levels of the warden
7. You need to upgrade Witches and Minions
8. All of the wiz towers need to be upgraded (pre h10)

Please don't spread information if you don't have the facts.
It is quite obvious you are not a TH11, or a MAX TH10
Don't speak about subjects you do not have experience with.
