Then the requirements for both normal and clash chests would need to be lowered too, im all for lowering the duration as is every other raid player on planet earth

I mean, yes, of course the requirements for chests would also need to be lowered :P that goes without saying, I figured.

I'll pass it on Krama

Upvote to Kram.  This would be awesome.  

Can we get a Community Manager to post a comment?  

This would be amazing.  6 fights every week going to Turn Limit for me sucks so much time.

If they feel like it. I don't go searching for them to post on stuff, as posting on stuff is my role here. :)

The feedback goes to the same people anyhow, whether I send it in or a CM sends it in.

Hydra taking significantly less time would be great. I see no way for this to happen without them redesigning the entire fight though.

I see what youre getting at with the devour mechanic but I think a lot of people (myself included) use a taunt loop to ignore devour the entire fight and just go to turn limit.

I've been spending 1.5 hours plus each key with 3 different teams each week. My main team for my biggest clash points is a mindless hell of 1.5 hour of maual. 

I feel plarium does not care and has no way to change this crap now, its far to gone and doubling down with hydra clash made it 1000x worse, at keast before I could auto a few fights for 20-40 min each and get top keys. This is not enough anymore and as Ive said before you need to be doing significantly more than 1 key damage to be relevant in clash period.

You guys throwing any clashes?  Having a week off now and again is a nice mental break from it. 

sure they get thrown pretty hard some weeks, not planned but getting participation is very hard some weeks. 

Unplanned would be rough cause then you're left doing big keys and then watching no one else do anything.

Planned is sometimes rough cause you preplan one and then get a bracket you could have won easily had people not thrown away a bunch of keys in the first hours.

Neither is often a good answer under the current system, I guess I'm saying

I agree. I just go hard each week and tbh have been upset seeing others in my clan consistently put up a billion+ clash points, just to see half the roster not even use a key or do very little points.

It is 100% putting a strain on my current clan and causing drama that will surely only get more heated and worse. I imagine lots of clans are and have been going through similar over clash. 

It's really not, and then to top it off you can Trunda sniped with a 50B key in the last 2 hours.

It's definitely a stress point.  Not something I'd consider good for the health of the game in the long term.

I actually disagree. Hurts f2p but someone who spends is just gonna jump to a better clan. 

It hurts those with loyalty to a clan, unfortunate but not necessarily harmful to the games overall health. 

watched the Shini vid, so deffnately seems Hydra and CvC causeing stress, but probs gud for Plariums short term bank balance, which is all that matters!!!

I'm not sure clans where you need 30b+ in CvC and hundreds of billions in Clash are the best example. Even with clans suffering churn due to both events - something I'm very familiar with - there's going to be a wider range of folks to fill in the gaps from time to time in clans whereas the super high end CvCs/Clash clans are drawing upon a very small portion of the player pool, even among serious players.

I agree with this. It's tough, but I think even those kinds of clans who are trying to maintain loyalty/older members who maybe can't be bothered with the more time intensive nonsense can stay together. It's just a lot more work now, unfortunately.

That said, CvC continues to be a source of diminishing returns since it hasn't been spruced up - save for the random Clan Rewards buffs from time to time. In some ways I think you did it right going to a clan that stresses Clash rather than CvC. :) 

Sure - but the other half of my suggestion would handle that. Capping turn count at 300 means your fight is only a fifth the duration it usually is.
