For attacking purposes you're not a TH8 if you have all L4 troops and 180 army camp spots still. You've got TH7 farming abilities with worse loot options. I'd drop into Silver 1 and see if it's any better.
How many times to skip kind of depends on how the loot is that day but in general 6 -8 isn't all that many.
your army composition is bad. the dragon basically mandates that you take out an air defense as a primary strategy, and that's negatively impacting your entire army. you're wasting giants/barbs/wbs to get to an air defense that would be meaningless but for the fact that you're including one (very elixir expensive) dragon. you need to change that.
i'd recommend maxing your camps ASAP. the fact you skipped TH7 without maxing camps suggests to me that your base is horribly premature. even if you skimp on defense, never skip on offensive upgrades (camps being the most important).
1. yes. gold III is fine for a normal TH8 army (200 troops, 10 wbs, archers/goblins/barbs). i was in gold II by the end of TH8.
2. when i was TH8, depending on the time of day, i'd skip through an average of 10-15 bases each time. my worst defeats were always because i attacked the wrong base because i wasn't willing to skip anymore.
3. really depends. if you're good on trophies, then raid collectors with a few troops. if it's the last attack of the night or you think you can reach all the storages, go all out on a potentially huge resource laden base.
- at TH8, i was regularly getting 200k+ in both gold and elixir for armies where i'd use 5-6 giants, 5-6 wbs, and about 120 total of a mix of barbs, gobs, and archers. i think i generally waited for around 10-15 minutes for full camps between attacks.
Using a constant building army really helps.
I use BAM which is 2 barracks of archers, 2 barracks of barbarians and a DE barrack of minions. It is always building and utilises 5 barracks, thus having a quicker training time :).
Thank you for the feedback.
Here's what I'm going to do:
Max my army camps.
Get Level 5 Archers and Giants.
Look for bases that have 200k resources that are semi-hard to beat.
Do collector raids once in a while.
Farm in Gold League.
Sounds good?
Im just th 6, but with some endurance in skipping you can get really good raids! use a troop combination between 20-30 minutes training time and with low cost. skip as long as you have enough gold, and search for a really crappy base that has like townhall lv 8. yesterday i got like 3million gold(or even more, spend every thing on maxing out walls) and i dont know how much elixir(full storages)
Use tier 1 troops for faster cooking time.
