So was wondering if a TH8 can consistently defend against the following armies (all maxed level):
-Hogs
-Balloons, minions
-Giant healer archer (or wizard)
would it be hard for any TH8 to defend against these attacks (considering they are maxed)

Hogs - No Chance, 3-star
Ballonion - No Chance, 3-star
Giant Healer - Maybe, if the attacker fails, but you will most likely get 3-starred
Sad but true you will never be able to defend against those maxed troops. You are especially a prim target at th 8 with anybody that has maxed hogs or balloons. Don't even need to have maxed hogs lvl 3 or 4 will do. Best thing you can do is stay on-line and raid the loot you need for your upgrades and log off with as little loot as possible. Or upgrade to th 10 and buy inferno towers. Premature th 10s seem to be the norm these days.
It's not, which is as it should be. If you want to significantly reduce the number of all-out attacks on your base, I'd recommend putting your town hall outside your walls - whether you're farming, or not.
Good luck! :)
I have stopped hogs 1-2 and been 3 starred 1-2 times depends if they fall for all my traps if they dont it is a succesful 3 star no doubt.
Balloonian an has never attacked me but dragloonian has and it 1 starred me with 1 storage lost
and giant healer is what my base is strongest against but there is 1 weak spot but is disguised so only 1 person has spotted it.
So i would say you have a chance against the giant healer but the others the attacker has to make a big mistake which is normally not checking clan castle or dropping it in the perfect spot where the ai will go spastic so some luck is needed and a good base design, i suggest for the base design go to the town hall 8 base design thread in tactics strategy and questions as thats where i found mine and once you sift through a fair lot you will find one that is what u need.
In my honest opinion all really boils down to two tings: skill of the attacker and layout of the defender. While you can do much/anything on the the first part you can on the second one.
A well segregated, well funneled and full of spring traps should keep you safe against occasional players.
1) Hog raiders
Even for a maxed out TH 9 like me they are a real pain in the ♥♥♥♥, meaning that if the attacker is a skilled hogger then he will 3 star me without much of a fuss even if I rely on an anti-hogs layout.
For the other two combos you still have a chance of some victory.
2) Balloons + minions
As long as all your 3 air defenses are active, at level 6, in a triangle formation and deep in your layout you should be fine. Place them next to a wizard tower and a hidden Tesla. The air seeking mine and air mine also spell disaster if placed in the right spot.
3) Giant + healer combo
The Achilles spot for this combo are the healers. With a good funneling and spring traps plus upgraded air seeking mines you should give any attacker a real hard time.
About all attackers will want to take out your air defenses first, cos if they are up and kill the healers it's only a matter of time until all giants are taken down or fly away. :)
Giants weakness is their passionate love for defenses. Use this against them by creating funnels that lead to a defense, but they don't know a spring trap will wait for them at the entrance. ;)
Hogs always seem to get no more than 50% on me, but are never maxed. Balloonian gets 100% though. Giant healer archer never reaches evem an airdefence so they fail without getting 30% :p and yes, I'm TH8. Search me:

Totally depends on the attacker, any decent+ player can 3 star a th8 with maxed troops... They have to be really bad players or really unlucky to not 3 star u with max hogs or balloons. But again, its up to how careless the attacker is.
A good base design gives u a chance if the attacker makes a few errors but if they do it properly then th8's have no chance. So either they didnt use spells and made a few mistakes or use spells and guarantee 100%
All of them three stars.
If I can three star a TH8 with any of those comps then I am sure a TH10 can :)
