What Should I Do Next? Direction Finding for a TH6

Hello all, Today I am seeking help on what to do next. After reading through several threads, it is hard for me to decide whether to stay at TH6 and keep upgrading or upgrade to TH7 and start from there. My base is as follows.

119 Lv. 5 Walls
6 Lv. 6 Walls

Resources:

Lv. 10, Lv. 10 Gold Storage
Lv. 10, Lv. 10 Elixir Storage
6 Lv. 7 Gold Mines

That is basically my entire base.


I would like some advice on what to do next. I figure I should probably not upgrade to TH 7 but I would like some suggestions. Thanks a lot for reading the thread and Good Luck.

Why do you want to jump to th7? Have you finished all the troop's upgrades in the lab?

Your army camps are not maxed. Your defenses are not maxed. You still think having your TH inside is a good idea. I really think you should stay at TH6 to figure out what you need to do.

Th7 is a farmer level. But if your army camps are not maxed already and your castle, and your lab upgrades ... what is the point of upgrading to TH7?

By the way upgrading traps is just a waste of gold for your level.

Get that 4th builder and start building this base

Good luck

Okay, I bought the fourth builder. What should I upgrade? I have Lv. 3 archers, barbs, gaints. Lv. 2 goblins, wallbreaker, wizard, lightning spell. Lv. 1 balloons

Up to th 7, when you are th 6 you rrcive many attacks from people with bb king, rage spell and 50 more housing spacs.

If you dont want to rush it, up your defenses (archer towers first) (i maxed everything but walls and collectors before th 7) also unlock healer as soon as possible.

Hope i helped.

upgrade your gobs, wb and spells.

Elix in lab : gob and WB. You need those to farm
Elix upgrades : spell factory (rage) and army camps. You need those to farm

gold upgrade : wiz tower, clan castle, mortars

I suggest 2 builders on def and 2 on non def. If you don't have enough elix, just put a builder on a mine or collector while you gather elix.

Shouldn't be too long with 4 builders. If you have trouble gathering enough gold/elix for 4 builders at TH6, don't rush to th7, because you will see that level 5 lab is full of stuff to upgrades and those new teslas cost a bunch.

Good luck

Have Lv. 3 wallbreakers. 1 day 3 hr left on Lv. 3 gobs.
mortars both at Lv. 4
Wizard tower still at Lv. 1 and Lv. 2 (update about to be both Lv. 2)
do i need to upgrade walls
clan castle about to be Lv. 3.
all three archer towers about to be Lv. 7
So far everything execpt balloons Lv. 1, wizards Lv.2, and lightning lv. 2 and heal Lv. 1 (just unlocked) . Everything else is max Lv.3

Idk about you but This is what i did and i turned out good, i think you should go to Th7 and stop there until you maxed out your defenses troops and so on with the upgrades, after you maxed out th7 you go to th8 and so on, im th8 and in crystal right now im doing pretty good

Hi,

If I were you I'll make sure these were upgraded first before reaching TH7, and why:

Clan Castle - you can upgrade it till a level 3 and that extra 5 troops will help you do wonders. Plus it's quite fast to update (1 day to level 3). And you can receive troops that are wayyy better than what you can produce yourself if you're in a good supportive clan. This will really help your attack.

Walls - It intimidates players!

Air defense - I'll upgrade it cause it's going to only get harder from here. Air defense is one of the most expensive and longest to upgrade and you're going to start getting attacked by healers/dragons/dark elixer flying units soon. So it'll be great to go maximum on it first at TH 6 (level 4) then when you upgrade to TH 7, you won't need to worry as much about having them upgraded and worrying about getting attacked by air units.

Level 8 barracks for healers - at least 1 or 2! This is so you can still produce healers when you upgrade it next for dragons since that will take you 4 days instead.

Spell factory - It's so useful for last resort and to attack clan castle troops that produce splash damage.

Army camps - I will actually really upgrade all army camps cause although some people say it's too long only for an extra 5 units, 3 X 5 = 15 extra troops and that's a lot in the long run.

Wizard Towers & Mortars - Sometimes I come across TH 8 with only level 3 wizard towers and level 3 mortars. It's a bit of a laugh, and an easier win even with my low level. Plus extra loot for me because they're higher levelled than me and I get extra rewards :P

Laboratory - Have you upgraded the troops and spells here yet?

I don't really upgrade mines and collectors cause I think I can earn more from raiding. But it depends on how often you play cause some people prefer playing once a day for 5 minutes, so they upgrade their mines and collectors more.

I'll use the extra gem to buy an extra builder (:

I know a lot of people want to immediately go to TH 7 because their upgrades seem cooler - barb king, dark elixer storage, dark elixer barrack - but really, the barb king is actually very very weak at TH7 upgrades and you won't be able to update it until you've gained enough dark elixers. A TH 5 can easily beat him with a few archers and barbarians. And unless you're hitting bases where you steal dark elixers often and in large quantities, it's quite pointless getting a dark elixer storage/barrack. Plus you must remember the disadvantages of being a TH 7 compared to a TH 6:
- Higher search fees
- Higher levelled players will attack you more often because now they get less penalty off you
- More loot gets stolen because of the penalty thing
- Lower levelled players will still attack you cause your TH doesn't help with defence and despite the TH 7, you're still between a TH 5-6 defence. Plus, they'll get extra loot off you

Reasons why I will prematurely upgrade my TH 6:
- I'm gaining a lot of dark elixer loot that is going to waste
- I'm attacking higher levelled bases where my troops are weak and I need stronger troops from an upgraded laboratory

Just my two cents. It's up to you really, but do tell how you go about it!
