[Project] Let's build a TH8 base for the new loot system

SO the 1.6 is the best from this thread? When I go to your thread, I see a whole different setup, plus one that looks like the 1.6 but is still different. Which one would you recommend? 1.6, the lookalike of 1.6, or the whole different one?

I would recommend the whole different one if you want to test/work on improving it, but otherwise I wouldn't recommend any of them. The pathing on the 1.6 version doesn't work all the way around the base (which defeats the purpose, think of this like a anti-hog base for giants), and with the lookalike base the pathing only works one way, so if someone destroys the cannon before the AT then the giants will path to the core. This was fixed with the different setup one, as well as making it as difficult as possible for wallbreakers to open up the core (which would result in giants pathing to it), but it is still weak to air attacks.

I haven't personally used the tempest, but I heard that it is pretty good.

Hi, I'm back to post here after a looong time! ;)
Yes, tempest is good, but not against hoggers...with the new update raising GB's damage to hogs this could change now!
I am mid-TH9 by now....and am using an adapted Tempest !
At TH8 this galaxy base was pretty good and I still recommend it.
Have Fun

...we'll see how it goes. I'm a serial vault raider and I'm skeptical that this can work, but as a mid-TH8 with defensive upgrades ongoing, I'm giving this a try. I'm tired of getting wrecked for 300k each by TH9s at 1600-1700 trophies.
