Your biggest problem is at the very bottom. You arent ready for TH 9. I would cancel that if I were you.
Gold walls, level 4 troops, and weak defenses. Ouch. Yeah you should cancel that.
Cancel Upgrade!
Well I decided to upgrade to town hall 9 so I can get another dark elixr mine plus I have 1800 gems, but what could I do to improve my base? And how did you find my clan every time I try to search it on clan search it doesn't show up.Quote:

Well, you really should cancel. You will get owned by the loot penalty with that base.Quote:

Really another DE mine is why you're doing that upgrade? Seriously?Quote:

Its your choice, but it will take alot more gems to try and correct your huge mistake. Cut your losses now is the best advice I can give.Quote:

So in your case, you as a th 9 would only be able to attack th8 and other th 9s for good loot. With your level troops it would be very difficult for you to attack those who actually waited to upgrade everything before their th. Btw th 9 attacking a th 7 would get a 50% reduction I believe. I had a friend who upgraded to th 9 about the level you did and he tried to make it up, but he struggled so much he didn't have fun anymore. He had to make a second account and has played the smart way and is enjoying the came much more.
Guys I came for base defense advice not I should cancel an upgrade ill deal with that just please give me defense advice.
My friend, your defenses and walls are low enough level that your actual base design will be irrelevant. You're going to get crushed at TH9.
I hope you enjoy being the minnow that the larger fish eat, because that's all that is in your future for a long time to come.
I'd scrap that base and find one where the storages are all separated.
You are going to struggle, you can't even get your xbows started and your defences and walls are weak.
Us TH7s get an extra 25% loot for attacking a TH9, making rushed town halls great targets.Quote:

Edit: just noticed the lv4 (I hope) archer and wall breaker. You are making a big mistake.
Wow, I didn't understand the TH level difference effects the loot. Thanks for the link to the tread, I thought I knew about loot.Quote:

Don't know about your tactics but my fights have gotten tougher with each TH upgrade. With everything getting more expensive I prefer to keep my loot penalty at 0 until I am fully upgraded. It is your base so do what makes you happy. I am happy getting over 100k resources on some battles. I hope to keep increasing that number.
I'm going to stop it and what should I do for my base?Quote:

There are a ton of good TH8 designs in the base design thread if you want something more creative, but segmenting your core loot cavity would be a very good first step.
Upgrade your troops to level 5 and upgrade your wizard towers.
Glad you decided to cancel your TH9. That was a good move. As far as your base is concerned...you have weak walls, making an egg crate style wall base might help a bit more as people won't be able to blast directly into your core, and unload a bunch of goblins.
You have a level 1 air defense, that's terrible even for a TH8, let alone TH9. Upgrade that air defense and upgrade your wizard towers. Your mortars are maxed already which is good. Cannons and Archer towers are lower priority then splash damage. If you max your spash damage, you can help fight off the farmers coming for your resources as they use mostly T1 troops.
The long walls are probably a little overkill as someone else pointed out. You can shorten them and use the excess walls to section off more things.
As far as your elixir is concerned. You need to start getting everything to level 5. Level 5 archers are awesome, but if you find yourself having trouble getting enough elixir, upgrade your barbarians to 5 first to help you farm the elixir you need for level 5 archers.
But I don't use archers or barbarians in my attack technique.Quote:

2. everyone advised him to cancel
3. thank god op listened
Although i have not much to add, still it looks like a very friendly forum with few areas to improve. Hope everyone, for once, listen to these selfless ppl. good work
what do you mean I have 3 mill gold and I'm upgrading 5 things!!!Quote:

Considering going from a fully maxed TH7 to fully maxed TH8 with 5 builders takes 2-3 months of none stop building. Add on top your low level teslas, wizard towers, barracks, air defense and army camps your looking at almost 4 months before going to TH9. This game is a marathon not a sprint.
In terms of your base you just need to focus on your walls. You should have had them all purple before moving to TH8.
The point is you can gain resources extremely quickly with tier 1 troops. I only attack with gobs, archers, and barbs. It's a stong army and it trains in around 20 minutes. Those healers you use take 20 minutes each. Reducing your raids per hour.Quote:
