Not sure if anyone else does what I do, but having level 6 barbs: 110 HP, 26 DPS, 150 elixir cost and only 20 seconds to make, is extremely effective at farming gold.
I pump out 195 Barbs in ((195/4) x 0.3333*) = 16 minutes roughly. at a cost of 195 x 150 = 29,250 elixir.
Farming at the 1500-1800 range any base that is above 80k in both resources I will attack. Usually resulting in 80%-All resources taken.
I have noticed that pumping out roughly 40 Barbarians after an initial circle to take out the "Distraction buildings" towards a wall section (notice they will always target the weakest point, a corner etc). 40 x 26 = 1040 damage per second , any wall level 8 and below will drop in roughly 3 seconds, once the barbs are in they will spread reducing and splash damage, and destroying building nearly insantly.
In a bad situation the barbs will take at worst 2 hits from a mortar to die and 3 hits from a wizzy tower to die, but positioning barbarians in the right place will take advantage of mortar deadzone or allow them to break through and get through these defences.
Not sure if any of you guys do this either, but at a 16 minute downtime (about 13 because they will continue being made while raiding) I can usually next in around 400-800k of resources an hour of each.
Let us know your thoughts :)
