Both set to air, think it's silly not to.
I set Both to air, two ground targeting xbows is what many players look for when using air troops, and we all know how good they can be.
Yep 10 charsQuote:

I would very much appreciate it if someone could explain why this is preferable to simply moving your air def/archer towers a bit more towards the center of your base.
Both at Ground. I never get attacked with air units, so why should i have them at Air&Ground?
Ive recently designed my own base and i have all 4 air defense in my core along with xbows which are pointing down. Xbows down are my favourite thing right now
i used to do ground only but now set to both just to be on the safe side
Ground as if they are on air u just have another arch tower and i place mine in second layer from core
I sit on the fence, 1 air 1 ground 😜
Haha me too!Quote:

3) X bows are better because they dont 'waste' damage. Since there is only a finite amount of damage troops can take all defs will 'waste' some da
age when a troop is killed. X bows waste very little time and damage due to high rate of fire.
4) Double up X bows unless you have really good air defs and/or wiz towers (e.g. both lvl 7 and above)

Great minds think alike 😜
I have one set to each with them both in my core alongside my DE store and my CC, with other major storage so clustered loosely around. Ground one picks off barch etc at a distance and the air discourages air raids (along with the lv4 drag i keep in my CC lol)

I have mine set to air. Yes, they are archer towers with triple the health.
Honestly, every time I go to ground I start getting air attacked, and I hate getting air attacked.
This, If you have your 4 AD in surrounding your resources/TH then it is not necessary to have them set to ground and air. I have Two L6 teslas and 4 AD in the core with the xbows, which are ground only .Quote:

I have one of each. When I get a third, I will point it skyward.
Its a matter of how much importance and coverage and level you deem your air defenses to be. I have excellent coverage 4 lvl 6 air defenses, so why do I need my centralized x bows to be air and ground? wastes too much elixir.
Then you just have another cannon...Quote:

I have mine set on air to ground so that I don't have to reload them every time people try to take out my drills and they only damage the all outers
both ground because i have max level air defenses for th 9
Depends on your set up, eg ad placement which will determine what kind of attacks you get on your base
If farming from 1600-2200, xbows down, above that put them up.
Ground and air always :)
