Recently I found when my base level5 (reputation4) and I always attacked by level7 (reputation4 or higher) rival.
But how does it happened? It should be some rival which is same with me level5 (same reputation)
When I attack some other rival, sometimes will be level5(same reputation) or level6 (same reputation), but they are always not easy target, they are with fully upgraded.
And I compared to my clan player, he is level6(high reputation) and always attack the target which has low upgrade or level lower than him.
How is it calculated?
The maximum rivals difficult decided is base on your
Base level+2 (reputation + 2) & your all turret level < rival all turret level
So, let's back to the title, how did you perform as pro?
Upgrade your base level as soon as possible until level6, all turret level just have to left 1 level. Upgrade other building but turret.
But what about your resources? Build all building separately and fill up all map, make the shield with different place, left the base as easy target(then you will get shield protected time easy).
As conclusion, with this method you will get easy target, and you may get that damn 2% easy, because you don't have to use those hard troops group and wait for 30min to attack once.
Your attack will unstoppable, same in clan war, the clan war will find rival same as the formula. Even you are level10 with none or 2turret, and you will get the rival which is lower level than you but with all turret fully upgrade. But they can't stop you, because you are level10 troops and have 3times chance to attack.
I wish there a way can downgrade or remove my turret, or I have to play a new account
