Need all the help I can get with th10 begining

Hello there misters and ladies.

At the moment, I am trying to make up a plan for the beginning of my th10.

The upgrade for th10 will end in 12 days.

I have a queen level 29 ready to upgrade when I have enough DE (have 100k DE atm).

My king is going for 29 and will arrive there in 5 days from now.


I have over 2000 gems at the moment, will get +500 as soon as I collect all the castle storage money.

Only 3 walls left for max walls.

Everything else is already maxed.


Counting this clan events, I will end up with 1 book of fighting (troop upgrade) + book of building (free instant upgrade) + 5 builder potions (1 hour faster building for ALL builders) + 1 book of heroes.

I am planning to use all those "free booster for one hour" potions from clan wars too help me fill my storages.

Ok...

SOO...

QUESTIONS NOW:

1º) Upgrade queen before I hit th10 with heroes book, use queen too help me farm before th10 hits... OR upgrade the queen without using the book... Or actually let her be 29 and make sure I have 180k DE when the th10 ends?

2º) Let queen stay at 29, only focus in having enough DE to +30 my king in 6 days and then farm DE like a madmen until my th10 comes?

3º) Use my book of free upgrade when I am th10 in lab or sorcery spell factory?

4º) With all the +2000 gems I have at the moment, should I farm normally (one "farming " potion daily and USE IT or just bougth the potions and save 5 of them?)

5º) What are the th10 lab upgrades priorities for a war player? I am a 855 star war player... I need to know how which troops are upgraded first at th10 WITH ONLY WAR on the sights?




I apologize... for the names, I know the portuguese names of most of the ingame stuff but I dont really know the names in english of things like potions and stuff :'(
Hope you understand what I am trying to say when I say things like "book of free upgrade"...


Thank you for all and any answers!

1) AQ 30 is a big deal so i would get her
2) see above
3) IMO Spell Factory as much easier raiding with spells and the extra 2 capacity is massive
4) no opinion, depends how much time to play you have
5) Bowlers...level 2 bowlers are used in a lot of th10 army compositions

Queen to 30 first thing. Unlike your previous TH level, Royals at 10 are by far the most important troop. On day one, you should have the Spell Factory upgrading. It's a real pain, but it will be the last time you'll need to until TH12*. Book of Building would be awesome for this. After that, get your farming army done first. You need war troops, but in order to get them you need good farming troops. So Giants and wiz are a solid place to start. After that, it's really up to you how you want to proceed. Hogs are doing awesome things at TH10 these days, but only if you know how to funnel a KIll Squad and get that enemy Queen. With so many war bases infernos set to single, Lavaloon is also viable, albeit, lvl 6 loons leave something to be desired. But my advice for a new 10 is SF, Camps, heroes...heroes...heroes....and in case you forget, heroes!

Go ahead an do queen.
Spell factory with book. You can wait on the lab.
Forget bowlers for a while imo. Focus on camps. Once lab finishes, upgrade your current war troops and farming troops. You'll still be a th9ish for war early on. I did lava pretty quickly as I mostly did lavaloon attacks. No loon upgrade. I raid a lot with goblins so I maxed them. Helps keep them from getting one shot killed by point defenses.

You are going to need to upgrade both dark barracks to produce bowlers in a reasonable amount of time unless you rely on potions. Even with them, it can be painful. Watch for building books. I did every one of my barracks with a book. So settle in for the long haul, raid a lot, and chase books. I've enjoyed th10. Getting close to dropping infernos. I have aq 40 and bk on way to 37. War scene is a bit tougher than 9 but still fun.

I would say queen to 30 and then 31 @ 31 she starts 1 shooting buildings like builder huts. every second counts going forward.

Giants and Goblins for the troops and Spell factory/ Lab
Camps
Everything else is just as time permits.

Some really great advice so far to get you started on the right path at th10.

Depending how much time you plan on investing in farming DE, the by product will be gold/elixir, so plan your builders out. With the longer build times, it's very easy to get stuck without a free builder for 3-4 days, and farming DE and no place to use up excess gold and elixir is wasteful.

You can always toss a trap or two into your build order, to help space out when you will have a builder free, and give you the option to dump extra resources into walls.

And don't underestimate the power of the builder potions, 5 potions with 5 active builders will save 9 days 9 hours of overall build time, just shy of a free 10 day build.

AQ to 30, then spell factory and lab. For a war player of course you want to start your clan castle as soon as possible as well.

Once you have the extra spell space and the lab upgraded, you can start on camps and barracks. What I did is gem one barrack so I could start bowlers towards lvl2 immediately, as they are vital in war. Of course the books help now as well :-)

For the rest it is basically the same as every TH upgrade. What I did was adding all new defenses except ITs, and get them to TH9 level. Plus add the new walls and get them to max TH9 level as well. Then start the first upgrade round of defenses.

As for troops, of course giants and wizards are important as they are used in many attacks (also war). Personally I would check the TH10 meta and see what attack type you like most so you can start troop and spell upgrades for that.

Good post...not like all the other I'm upgrading to TH10 help me posts.

I need to start thinking about this with my mini (AQ 27 and BK 29...going to 30 with the book I get today).
I am going to use a book for the spell factory...as it's brutal without spells. Then I'll be doing the camps.
If the TH10 pack (L2 IT +gems + gold)....then I will get that and get an L3 IT started.

I have already started making my way down to gold so I can barch with no spells.....to get elixer quick!!

For me with war....I'm not too concerned right away....as I will do cleanup until my hogs and valks are max for TH10....then I'll work on bowlers and air. The extra spell and larger CC should help until those troops are upgraded.

Thank you for all the comments misters and ladies!

Queen to level 30... with or without heroe book?

Also... should I save all the training potions I can or instead use them all during this 11 days to make sure I hit th10 full on resources?

You will need full storages when you get there, and preferably, a full CC too. Up to you whether or not you use the potions, but myself, I can easily fill my storages on my TH9 in 11 days. Everything is a lot more expensive at TH10 so based on that, I'd book the AQ to 30 and use her with some training potions to farm as you will easily spend your full storages on the first day.

I'd also book the spell factory. That extra 2 spaces is very useful indeed.

I just upgraded to th10 myself. What I did was just drop to gold league and farm. Its working well so far. I have 19/15 heros right now so thats why I dropped down. It didnt take long to get all the buildings down here loot is also flowing in. I think yo should probally drop and farm too. Cause if you dont you will end up having to fight mid th10s with th9 offence if your at like masters
