![]() ![]() A TH sniper could easily make 1M Gold and Elixir in a session just from League Bonuses. Assume the average League Bonus is 30,000 Gold and Elixir. Most TH9 and TH10 sniper Farmers are in the Gold and Crystal region. The 80% statistic has huge implications to the CoC economy. Just implementing the first change would have significantly solved the problem, and would have changed gameplay enough to be interesting. It seems totally unnecessary to implement all three changes in the same update package. Remove the bonus, and the Farmer has no incentive to snipe. This is very profitable for the sniper Farmer. For example, a TH snipe in Masters III gives 500 DE bonus. TH snipers would only receive trophies and virtually no League Bonus loot. League Bonus for % destruction: This rule, by itself, may have somewhat reduced TH snipes. However, it would have left the TH an utterly worthless building. Shield for % destruction: This rule, by itself, would also have eliminated TH snipes. Players would have the choice of occasionally making the tradeoff of losing some loot vs. Farmers would be compelled to move their Town Halls inside to protect loot. Making the TH store Gold, Elixir, and DE: This rule, by itself, would vastly reduce Town Hall snipes. Any one of the three major changes would have greatly reduced the TH snipe. In doing so, Supercell did some overkill. The TH now contains equal Elixir and Gold as your Elixir and Gold storages. Supercell changed some gameplay to stop TH sniping. Supercell needs to get more bases into rotation. Dedicated snipers can single-handedly remove dozens of bases per play session. A huge percentage of bases stay out of rotation because of 12-hour shields. ![]() If the 80% statistic is true, then Town Hall snipes is a serious gameplay problem. A single player doing a few hours dedicated sniping sessions can take out dozens of bases, leading to the next issue: 2. Most players will opportunistically hit exposed Town Halls, even if they are not doing a dedicated sniping session. It takes only a few seconds to destroy an exposed Town Hall. Town Hall snipes are very fast, especially with the Barbarian King or Archer Queen. Reality check: could the 80% statistic be real? This was hard for me to believe.Īlthough Supercell has been *ahem* less-than-truthful at times about game statistics, this is worth examination. Supercell revealed in a question-and-answer session that 80% of all attacks made in Clash of Clans are Town Hall Snipes. ![]()
