TH7 or 8

Hi, currently I am at TH 7 and I am wondering should I go to TH8?

my defenses are going to be maxed in a week. My army camps, storages, lab and spells factory are already maxed. My gold and elixer collectors are only level 5 or 6.

My barbs, archers, giants, wall breaker, wizard and goblins are level 4 but others are still level 2 or 3 .i only use barch so the other troops are not really important for me. I already have a level 2 barb king. Half of my walls are already level 7.

With the previous loot system, everyone says that TH7 is the best Th to be in. But with the new loot system, should I stay at TH 7 and maxed out my troops and collectors or should I go to TH8?

y is it "everyone says that TH7 is the best Th to be in"?
i dont get it

i have same situation as yours

I wouldnt ignore the other troop upgrades. you will want to use balloons dragons and maybe healers later on. It would suck to want to start using balloons only to find they are level 2 and have a ways to go.... how are dark elixer troops? minions are awesome and should be a priority. But thats me. i hate going up TH unless everything is maxxed, feels like im playing from behind. it's you'r choice at the end of the day.

Because TH 9 and 10 will not attack you due to the loot penalty but you can attack them. I think this is one of the reason. Not really sure of other reasons.

I totally forgot about my dark barrack and just started upgrading them. So my minions will only be level 1

I'd never leave th7 without maxed walls.
You will likely use many of the troops you don't use now later in the game. Upgrade them all.
Upgrade your stuff so your time at th8 doesn't seem so long.
I can tell you that it is a huge jump to th9 and you don't want to miss a thing while it's easy. You've played a long time and want to reward yourself but every jump is bigger and badder and harder in this game. Don't be too hasty.
If you're not killing it at th7 then you either have to lower your farming level or upgrade your troops or look into another attack group. I'd have never left th7 if I had any single thing to upgrade. At the very least, I was the best contributor in my clan.
You should be murdering 'em at th7. If not, seriously check out your attack plan. If you're impatient about a jump in th now, think about how long it will be at th8 when you have to do all those walls right?

It's because TH7 has the best loot because of the loot penalty. You still get tons of loot from TH6 (which are easy to take) and if you can overtake a TH8+ then you'll get even more loot. It's a gold paradise! Once you get to TH8, you need to attack more TH7's and TH8+s. Town Hall 6's don't get you any loot anymore because of the penalty.

Stay and farm a little longer.

who says TH7 loot is better than TH8 is old players when th7 have loot bonus and loot still capped at 200k

Loot bonus was removed... and cap had been increased. but that doesn't give Th7 advantages because it's too hard for lv 4 troops to farm th8+ storages that are protected by 3 wizard towers.

I've been both recently... I would say both loot is great, but I prefer th8 since I can raid more storages and DE with lv. 5 troops

with the new loot system, there are no sweetspot anymore because the stronger troops you have, the more loots you'll get...
