Bloons work even in champ. Use 16-32 depending on your preferences (time vs power tradeoff), rest minions (a CC drag is nice too). Heal/rage spells and one lightning. Works like a charm.

I'm sure you can farm more gold, without spell, in the crystal league than hoping to find base with 2k DE for your hogs army

And you won't make much DE this way. So unless you got a level 30 BK and level 31 AQ, this is not the way to improve your heros ;-)

true spell boost is necessary...

you may be able to farm more in gold(probably not crystal), but that would be using bam or something like that...boring and takes so many attacks, also its not as efficient if your attacking once every 2 hours or so.

the problem of being attacked a lot is a problem,but you can try making a setup,PURELY for gold and maybe de defence,no th.

Hey, it's your call but I see a number of problems with this.

The title of your thread is "farming in Master League". In my opinion you cannot farm in Masters with Hogs.
1) Every Hog attack requires 3 to 4 heal spells. OK, this is nice when the spell factory boost is on but what about after that? Plus you have the cost of the spells every time.
2) From what I can tell the Hog army costs 2k DE minimum. You're not going to win much more than this on average, including the win bonuses.
3) Heroes are pretty much a must as a mop up crew before duration ends. What's the point of farming DE if you need to keep your heroes active and can't upgrade them?

So essentially you're only farming gold, minus the cost of the spells. So why not just drop down and farm gold a lot quicker and easier at a lower level? Why put yourself through the torture of having to stay active for fear of losing another 2k DE every time you log off?

Hogs are perfect for trophy hunting - I will never argue that.

The only way I see to farm in Masters is with an army build time of 30 minutes, with 1 spell and no dependence on heroes. For me, this is only Balloons / Minions - even then it's not easy and takes skill & patience.

Up to you though.

only 1 way to find out...

to test it.

Hey, yeah its good to farm here at masters. Im currently lvl 79 @ masters 3. I'm using barbs & archer combo + WB & usually 1 rage spell. When I know Im a bit short for the trophy I use 2rages & my heroes. Im using zaps spells when everything else fail. ... at least to get that loot bunus of 70k/70k/ 400 d.e... 20-30min my troops are ready...

Ive been farming in masters for about 3 months, maybe more now. several of my clan do also, once you figure out how its quite a nice change from the mindless pump killing.

Tbh I can't see the point in is this when you can farm with barbs, archers and/or without minions and farm around 800k-1mil gold an hour if you're half decent down in silver/gold. If his army takes 30mins lets say to train (don't quote me here I'm being rough but I know that it doesn't take less than this) and he profits say 200-300k gold each attack resulting in around 500k an hour then that is a lot less. It far safer and far more guaranteed to farm down in silver / gold where good farmers can make even up to 1mil ++ gold an hour and know that they can easily get the loot they need without having to use as many spells if any.

Master league farming is almost solely for TH 10s, where silver league farming isn't really viable. Sure, BAM farming in gold league may be slightly more profitable in terms of gold, but the gold+DE in masters is fairly enticing to break up the monotony.

Everyone's different. I can't see the point of endlessly smashing crappy bases in silver / gold for gold. I don't see it as challenging and get bored very quickly. I'm a TH9 with about 80 level 9 walls but not bothered if i keep upgrading them. Up here I can collect 40 to 60k DE in a day and find the battles challenging and a lot more thought goes into each one. I'm not saying I won't go back to killing the kids but right now this is keeping me interested in playing.
