Hey guys, I'm about two weeks in on my defenseless base. I've maxxed TH4, and have my Laboratory. I know that every troop upgrade increases war weight, so what troops should I prioritize to keep my weight low, and still be able to perform in clan wars once I reach a higher TH? What do you guys think? Do you have a defenseless base? Please leave a comment below.
Barch is a must. Then for war focus on getting to th9 and use golems, valks, wizards and heros to 15. If th10 bowler/healer. Dragons are a good route since they are a reliable 2* at th10+ and solid for th9. You would be attacking far above your mirror there.Quote:

Once you get the queen, you dont even care about the cc. There is some solid videos on youtube about this strategy. By not getting barracks above 8, you keep the war weight low. If you unlock dragons and pekka, they add a lot of weight. Just do Barch, wall breakers, Hogs, Healers and giants. Enjoy destroying everything.

who insulted someone? also thanks for the advice. What about dark troops?Quote:

How high up on the enemy side do you envision the defenseless hitting.
To raid cheap and quick you'll need BARCH and possibly Goblins.
Then figure out if this is a donation account or just an engineered attack account.
The decide what your go to war attack is going to be and max those troops.
Ideally I'd like to bring it as high as possible. I currently have a normal account max TH 8 about to move to TH 9. Basically this means I have zero experience at TH 9 and above. So I don't really know what troops I'll need at that level.
Getting a defenseless account is pretty easy up to TH8.
And even TH9 the elixir stuff isn't too bad if you are good at raiding in sessions.
Getting and keeping DE for hero upgrades is the real challenge as you rarely get a shield due to opponent being about to wipe your base with less than 1/3 of the army.
Up to th8 you can do it no problem. I would get barch to farm and because it helps with the hero power. For the dark barracks, level 2 is enough. Hogs to level 4 (th8) and level 5 (th9) is enough to 3 star most mid level th9s and all th8s. As someone else mentioned, getting a shield is hard. Make sure to max collectors, storages and CC. You need a clan that always donates troop for defenses or you wont get a shield ever.Quote:

No matter my trophy level from under 200 to over 1,000 at th11 I just cannot get enough loot to manage the upgrades....
And anything I do get is easily taken.
So you maxxed to TH 11, and even troops? Where does your base weigh in clan wars? Maybe you shouldnt bother upgrading and just park it. Only farm for your attacks?
Bad writing on my part...max rushed meaning I just pushed to th11 and did not upgrade troops fully......was first rushed account and I know way better now.
Main point was that at th11 unless you have good solid troops you are going to really really suck at getting loot as virtually every base has minimal loot in collectors but tons in storage.
I am super low war weight....below a normal th6 even......so I use it to 3 star at least 2-3 bases above me.
Now I am rushing a new base....and upgrading troops properly along the way. Longer but much better choice. Lesson learned!!
