Almost TH9, what first?

Hey guys, im almost a townhall nine, im wondering what should i upgrade first? I plan on having my storages with maximum loot in them, I will probably build two x-bows. I have four builders though, so please tell what what are the first things to build/upgrade. Here's my base:

both xbows lab, then build small upgrades with other builder

Lab and drills 2 most important in my opinion.

Stagger the xbow builds by a few days.

1: X-Bow
2: X-Bow
3. AQ(if u have enough DE) -> Lab
4. Spell Factory or DE Drill

and congrats to you for being in exodias ll. i wish i was there lol

Don't forget your new buildings - the first few levels are cheap and quick to upgrade, and makes a big difference (particularly the fourth WT). Otherwise, agreed that at least one xbow, lab (get those lvl 6 troops asap), and AQ.

I agree with doing both xbows right away.

AQ level 1 should be done, since it is an immediate build, so hopefully you have enough DE.

Lab is next, then the last free builder for the quick new stuff like archer tower, gold and elixir storages, etc.

I'm getting close to th9 also and my question is why isn't anyone mentioning upgrading camps early? Offense is the name of the game here and early th9 you will be spending all your resources anyway and shouldn't be a very good farming target so why go all defense first? Even if you bring max gold, elixer and DE with you from th8 that will all be gone the first day.

Barracks is important, but you're going to be low on elixir at the start of TH9 so you'll have to plan for it. I'd recommend doing lab first, make sure you have enough elixir for archers/barbs/giants when it frees up, and then keep one builder on barracks.

And re: being a farming target, while it's easy to spend it all in the beginning, the later upgrades are all several millions each. Unless you're one of those who can stay on for hours at a time, chances are that you'll be needing solid defense to minimize the losses.
