TH9+ SC needs to add one more drill or drill levels to deal with so many DE

Hope I'm not alone with this problem.

I know that DE is not supposed to be easy to get, but right now is just insane!

SC needs to think about adding a new drill or one/two new drill levels for TH9+ to allow player progress their DE troops and HEROES.

Since SC released the dark spells factory (spells + upgrades), and the new DE troop and I can't handle with so many DE upgrades.

I have a TH9 and a TH10 accounts:
TH9: BK 24; AQ 26 (missing all DE spells, and several DE upgrades)
TH10: BK 31; AQ 35 (missing several DE spells, and few DE upgrades)

Both with ALL elixir upgrades performed.

If you war, so forget about factory and heroes upgrades, since the return won't cover DE troop costs used during wars.

The fact if that I can't deal with so many DE requirements.

Come on SC, give us the chance to deal better with so many DE needs.

The grind is real, but should not be so painful.

PS: I know that SC just gave us 1 gem boost, and I'm really thankful for that.

I've been sitting on 100k DE for the past 4 days and only had 3k of it stolen. lol

Start raiding.
You're not supposed to max out your heroes by just depending on your de drills.

Funny my farmed maxed heroes and troops disagree with the OP (they just told me).

Yup... Th9 should have one more drill, th10 should have 2 more drills. Th11 should have 3 more drills woot woot

It's doable, in the time you took to write up this post, you could have raided a th9 for 2500 dark elixir.

Just like sj74 said. My lvl 30 archer queen disagrees with you. (Btw I'm th9 also)

Whilst you may not be alone, most do not view it as a "problem". You have chosen not to do DE upgrades at a time when DE is more plentiful than ever.

Edit: I am a TH9, I raided the last 100k needed to put my AQ to 30 in 3 days, as and when I could be bothered to play.

League bonus really helps amass dark elixir. Forget looking for dead bases in silver as you don't get a loot bonus worthwhile down there. Farm for dark in crystal or higher and use as little dark troops as possible. Use jump instead of quad quake. Giants instead of golems. Overall, farming for dark isn't too bad.

What league are you in? I spent most of TH9 in champs 3, and I was overflowing in DE. Now that I'm TH10 it's even better.

I'm grinding through hero upgrades at the moment. I agree with the OP that a DE drill or Drill level could be added to TH9. It would make life a little easier. a new drill would add 2480 DE which isn't much in the big picture but would help out.


I will disagree with the OP regarding DE upgrades fro troops and spells at TH9, I got through all of them pretty painlessly and my heroes are 24/25. I use all the Dark troops for war so I needed them upgraded. The spells were not expensive either. War isn't to about loot for me, Its about winning and If I spend 7Kde between troops and donations, its just 7K I need to raid.
