Townhall 8 & Townhall 9 DE farming strategy - Gimme your DE
Hey clashers!
I want to share a strategy that helped me to gain lots of DE. I used it to farm DE. I have a maxed th10, maxed th9 and a maxed th8. Most of the DE can be farmed while hero are down. I started farming with this comp when my giants were level 4. I farmed using this comp and strategy until I got level 6 goblins. Then I mainly used goblin knife.
Sorry about the old photos but I thought this strategy should be shared.
About
At TH 8 this is a 1-2 star army used in gold leagues (works good all over from 1500-1800 for me). Main target for me is DE but you can take elixir, gold and trophies from th7's, inactives or premmies as well. At TH 9 this is a 1-2 star army (works good all over 2200-2500 for me).

This is the army comp I use. 3 Healing spells. I usually request "anything" for my cc, only thing I don't like there are loons. Once again your hero are not required as they will probably be sleeping anyway.
This is not the only comp I use. You can bring wiz/valks too but this one doesn't cost DE and training time stays quite low.
1. Troop training
Before you start nexting:

After you come from raid and wizard is finished (when you don't use wb in multiples of four adjust it somehow :) )

2. Choosing a base
Look for bases with 1000+DE or 200K+ gold/pink easy reachable. When using for push, choose bases with 30+ trophies available that have 100K+ gold or 700+ DE.
You need CC to be easy lurable and DE storage not in the middle. I will explain on one of my raids (this one is with valks but wiz do pretty same work, I will add one with army I posted above soon)

3. Battle
1. Lure cc (clear, with barb or one giant)

2. Place giants so they will go through the strongest structures, wb behind them

3. This is very important. Use barbs to destroy outer buildings so wizards go towards core.

Don't forget to keep an eye on giants' HP and heal them when needed ;)

4. Deploy wiz one-by-one and watch their targets. They need to go in core. Same when using valks (like this one)

Use cc troops when needed.
5. Enjoy your DE!

I'm not using it for DE only, when I see easy 200K gold I go for it :p
