Legend League: Not gonna happen.
Titan League: Get attacked as soon as I log off and picking off full DE drills with a few archers carves out chunks of valuable shield.
Champs League: Still get attacked as soon as I log off but with less league bonus when attacking.
Masters League: Very little loot and people drop hundreds of trophies on me every day I'm in Masters.
What is working for you town hall 11's? LavaLoon or queen walk? How much loot do you go for?
New 11 here.
I dropped to Gold 3 and ran Goblin raids. Boring but profitable.
Trophy droppers pushed me up so high though I'm now in Champs 2 between droppers and attacking.
My experience is similar to yours. I may boost tonight to get in some extra attacks.
I think things will settle out when the 1 gem troop boost is over.
Titans for me.
You can't worry about getting attacked. That's going to happen regardless of where you are.
If you are using archers to pick off drills, then you are certainly farming more DE than you are losing with 1 attack.
If you are a well developed th11 you also should be able to make a base that stops most (you can't stop everyone) players from getting your DE. (8 out of the last 10 defenses for me the attacker didn't get my DE storage)
What I personally am doing is camping between 3700-4000 going between a laloon and miner attacks and I'm farming 400k DE a week (would be more but I fill up before my heroes are done so I start farming gold/lix).
And I have AQ/BK down all the time so I'm never using them to farm.
titans. i get the most shield time and no clouds. 5-10 mins of nexting will find you a 500k/500k/5k base or better and it's easy pickings right now.
the other option is to farm in crystal/masters if you play a lot and can sit there using quick/cheap armies
personally i prefer the first option so i don't have to be on as much.
Titans and legends for me
Where should a TH11 be farming? Where ever they want that works for them.
For me it's low T2. I was using mass bowlers pre-update since DE was overflowing, but I've switched to loons and minions (no hounds) now that I need DE for heroes again.
I tend to swing all over the place from masters to Titans and even legends a couple times. I honestly have the same question and would like to see other responses in this thread. At the moment I'm getting pretty good loot in Titan 3.
Titan 2 for me.
Simply don't drop archers on elixir drills if you don't want to lose chunks of your shield (or drop those archers during your guard) ...Raid for 70% damage and all dark elixir.
You farm in Titan if you are going to make use of the large league bonus and extra guard time.
If you are going to barch its best to go to crystal/gold leagues.
Titans for me. Really making incredible loot right now with the boost. With 300k/2k bonus and a 3 hr guard, I don't see any reason to be in any other league, unless you are milking collectors down low.
I do well between Master and Champ. I mostly farm with giants and goblins.
I've had good luck in general with 2 th11s in m2-m1......currently with the activities going on not so good but generally able to Barch very effectively as this seems to be an area dead th11s settle.
I've been farming in T3 since mid th9 and the loot+bonus is great
the two main factors for this question are this.
1 What army do you like to farm with?
2 How much time per day do you spend farming? (is this the most efficient use of your time?)
the answer to the first question is personal preference and will net you a league 'by default' IME.
and the time aspect will dictate which army you use most and also dictate if you have time to boost and such. (back to the time efficiency)
I recommend T3 for TH9 and up... for the better loot and guard and bonuses..Ch1 is good, but if you can push to Ch1 then you can push to T3. (well for TH 10 and 11. I am pushing my 9s up there but it is taking more time due to defenses)
I use Loonion. it is great for my dark needs and gold needs. it is pretty decent for Elix with the bonus, cause I can 'target' pink a little more frequently to cover costs better. but the bonus covers nearly all of my army cost. nexting is not terrible and the clouds aren't too thick. I cannot hold a chat atm cause bases appear before I can finish my thoughts most times.
there is good loot in T3 from my few days being there, but the other perks are quite nice. most times I am a target for a T1-2 or Legend so my trophies don't get punished severely...
just a thought.
let the bonus work for you, and not the other way around.. I don't have a ton of time and this works best for me.
Titan 2 or 3 would be best for you. I know that once you log out, you'll be attacked. That can't be avoided. It would be best if you just try to loot as much as you can while you're playing (boost would be nice). Say you were able to get 2-3m gold/elix and 20k de, then someone raided your base with 3 stars and took 300k gold/elix and 3k de - at least you know that you got more than what was stolen from you.Quote:
