So I have been more or less farming to max out town hall 6 and recently started upgrade town hall 7. I have been farming in the 1150-1250 trophy range and it is great i make a ton, however when i upgrade my town hall i will have dark barracks and BK. as I will not be hemming my BK and want dark troops where would you say the best trophy range is for a wens town hall 7 to DE farm? All help is appreciated! Thank you! Also how much is considered a "Good Raid" for dark elixer?
If you want to get both gold/elixir/dark elixir, you probably want to farm around 1400-1600.
If you are just aiming for DE, you should try to farm in 1800

Good luck :)
1500-ish maybe a little bit more. Anything 500DE plus is pretty decent
Thank you for the feedback! I will be trying this in 5 days when my town hall is done!Quote:

Don't do this. This tactic is for losers. The advice given earlier was good. Get to 1600, make up a giant/healer army and go for storages behind 1 or 2 walls. Unless you want to spend a bunch of money gemming lightning is totally inefficient.Quote:

You can also train level 2 dragons for your overnight and try for a bigger hit. I got the 10k needed for my BK in a few days doing this, but also it was a time my base really started to get attacked a lot. A good Th7 farming layout and defense will be essential!
Th7 dark farming and defending is when the game really starts to become fun, enjoy
To be honest, dropping lightning spells on DE is a legit tactic.
Although you shouldn't do it too much, when you see a 2k+ DE raid, you should DEFINITELY drop some lighning spells on dat storage.
That is how i got some of my DE as a town hall 7. :)
I understand you town hall 9's and 10's are tired of it, but really? With level 4 troops and no DE drill what else are you gonna do?
In terms of De, the higher trophies you go the better.
Your going off topic and are about to turn this thread into a flame war.Quote:

Zapping is for those that are not good at attacking. I could get all the dark I needed at Th7 without doing it, if you couldn't then that speaks volumes about you ability.
Yes, I have to agree with that statement now, but when i was at the start of town hall 7, i zapped DE whenever I could.Quote:

Have a nice day :)
You're right that end bit was too strong, I'm a bit grumpy in the morning and zapping is really something that gets my goat. To each their own and sorry about the insult to your playing style.
Have a nice day yourself :)
OP zapping can get you some good dark but expect to be revenged a lot. In my opinion it's going to be better for you as a Th7 to practise your attacking skills instead of going for the easy option. The more you attack for dark the better you get at it, whereas if you zap for it you will not be improving anything about your ability. I myself started attacking for it at late Th7 and was getting about 3 or 4k per day. I have seen this amount steadily increase as I have progressed though the game. Now as a mid/high Th9 account holder I farm over 20k of dark per day. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't be possible if I had chosen the easy way at Th7. It takes ages to get good at dark farming. Do it the right way and learn from your mistakes to better allow you to farm for it later in the game.

Thank you very much for your advice this will help me EXTREMLEY and I will far militarize myself with the giant/healer strategy and BARCH to farm.Quote:

I'm new TH 7 and got my BK by raiding in a few days, even with people lightning my storage, there's plenty of easy to get to DE storages with out resorting to expensive spells.
People can cry it's a legitimate tactic as much as they like, its still lazy.
Anyone can play the game however they want & they shouldn't be judged for their choice. That said raiding for de sj more efficient however lightning storages is more reliable.Quote:

Besides that I got the odd 3-4k free de from undefended storages
I feel like you rage a lot because you get zapped dark elixir.Quote:

So there really is no way to 100% a real th 8 or even a near max th 7.
Plus getting to 1600 is not easy unless you pick off farmers Bases which can be counted as a loser tactic,in your opinion.
So your tactic is for halfway maxed out th 7 and doesn't work for nice bases with 500+ de.
Plus personally 5 archers and 3 lightning spells are way easier than dealing with giant healer.
Dont forget that people at 1600 can easily that your DE as you are a low maxed out th 7.
I lost 178 when I had a total of 2600 at 1150 trophys so your tactic would be deadly at 1600 trophies. plus healers take a long time to train and are harder to use than spells.
Actually, as a th7 myself, i would recomend climbing to crystal if u can, i got around 10k a day there if i was active. Good luck to u!
and i zapped de with three lvl4 lightening spells.
Agree. Once your defense can hold it, Crystal III is probably my favorite spot. You get a DE loot bonus and run into less folks who will lightning your DE. Lower than 1800 and you will run into lots of lightning.Quote:
