I'm only doing this for trophies so which one? Note level 1 golems level 2 hogs and level 2 heal spells please all advice is welcome
Level 2 healing spell but you have golems...?
And better yet i'm level 104 purely farmed never needed heal spells till now and i also have 1/3rd level 9 walls haha
Why not both?
I can imagine both being useful in future.
I would do Hogs first, unless you already have the DE for the Golem.
i got similar question: what would you upgrade as th8?
i have minions at l4 and barb at level 5.
Should i save for golem? I like the concept of valkyrie but going form 70 to 100 DE for 50k upgrade and 10% damage increase? not so sure...
I am planning to get to masters at th9 but not pushing much other than that, mostly farming.
p.s. all elixir upgrades are done.
I am nearly maxxed TH8 (for reference).
I did Golem as I might want to Gol-Arch or GoWiPe at some point in future, and DE was flowing at the time. Valks, I share your reasoning. I don't think doing either at TH8 is necessary as I would never use a Golem or Valks for farming. If you have 5 builders and keep them busy, you should finish way ahead of your Lab at TH8, and Golem and Valk are good candidates to leave for later, as I understand conversely your TH9 Lab will finish before your builders (and DE will probly be easier).
I would certainly do Hogs as much as you can at TH8. BK is personal choice due to regen trade-off.
Cheers.
Now is a good opportunity to stock up on DE with 1gem boost to spells if you get what i mean ;). Use the DE to upgrade Golem. Hogs are unstable, they might get nerfed on the next update.
i was considering valks as a giant replacement for farming army just because its synergies so well with healing spell and healers and boost your army dps while having all 6 barracks going. I would stick to minions but they put those ADs to work which doesnt feel right.
What dark troop would you use to support something like giant-archers? Golem? Basically its like 5-6 valks vs a golem — like 20% less hp overall but 200%+ dps. Maybe hogs? (those might just run too far and get killed)
Hogs are awesome beacause thery are a primary attack force golems are secondary definately hogs first. But then get a health spell upgrade because of their low health! :D
i feel like hogs make you committed to using a lot of those while you can casually stick in few valks to support your giants and be good with it.
Agreed.
I have all DE troops maxed for TH8 level.
I have used different combos: GOWIPE; Giant- healer- wizards, Giant - valkyria - healer, and hogs - heal spell.
Hogs-Heal spell has been the most devastating. always 3* except for cases when i did not manage to lure CC or heroes completely. And I have level 1 heal spell only.
Trick with hogs, have a few arch and wizards to take care of C troops and heroes and few left over to clear after hogs. I use 24-26 hogs max. 20 arch and rest wizards plus wizards in CC.
I did golem, because I love GoWiPe and also because I've succesfully used Golem+Archers for farming in Crystal (no giants, just 1 golem and 170 archers) - all at TH8. Also because I anticipate leveling the Golem up more as TH9 (well, ideally - once heroes become high enough level that golem is cheaper).
If you want to go Hogs, you'll really need to get them to level 4, so the cost is similar although split into two parts. And yeah, you never know if they will get nerfed again - golem is stable. And your heal spell is super under powered, it should be level 4 minimum which will take some time...
Be mindful that once you get around 40k+ DE you have a huge target on your base, so raid hard and spend asap.
