I'm a TH8, have maxxed defenses (tesla's and one last AD reaching max in a couple of days). 225/225 skull walls
I have farmed my BK to 10 already and all my "normal" troops are maxxed too (with normal I mean "not the dark ones".
Spells are maxxed too (only heal can go up another level).
Is it worthwhile to remain TH8 to upgrade all my dark troops to the max or not?
Minions are going to lvl4 right now, hogs are lvl 2.
Didn't bother upgrading golem or valkyrie so far since I don't use them.
No you're ready for th9, too much builder time wasted otherwise
Yes u should move on:):)
You'll have more builder time at TH9 than research. Plus dark elixir is 100 times easier to farm at TH9 than TH8. No reason for you to stay.
Move up to th9. You will love it, larger armies, maxed troops for many compositions (farming ones). At th9 I would recommend staying there for a long time... It is really a fun th to be. You can crush any th below you and begin to be able to hold your own defensively and you get a large amount of gold still from th8s... They will be your bread n butter, greatly missed at th10.

I upgraded those dark troops first... now I'm glad I did. :)
Yeah, I really regretted that I started upgrading minions that late.Quote:

That's why I'm somewhat scared to hit that upgrade button already: I may not be using hogs, valks and golem now but I might need them later on?
I don't see anyone in the op's position holding off to upgrade just dark troops... There are multiple problems with this... You cant farm DE very well at th8. What is he supposed to do with all the gold he gets?Quote:

he is going to have to upgrade them sooner or later, why not do it while you have a lower level hall which reduces how much higher level hall players take from you?Quote:

The minion and Hog riders are the only ones worth waiting it out for. This would depend on how you raid as well. Hogs are great to have handy but loons' fit the same bill and I'd recommend them. So one or the other I highly advise.
Th9 is fun, but be prepared to handle hogs. There the one unit that will spank an under leveled Th9, x-bows or not. I recommend having your big bombs upgraded for this purpose and doubling them up to catch the lazy hogger off guard (if possible place in front of a wizard tower for maximum benefit, maybe thrown in two maxed little bombs for insurance)
Note, not everyone agree on the above
