[PROJECT] TH10 upgrade order

Hey guys I am going town hall 10 on july the first just before my 9 weeks of summer holidays where I will be ferming around 10 million gold per day if the loot is good.
My plan is to have a builder to free up at least once every 12 hours so that I don't max out I will just dump on walls.
But as far as building upgrade order goes I have no idea what to start with or anything like that.
So I'll be editing this post as replies come in. I would like the buildings in order
ie.
-lvl1 inferno
-lvl8 wizard tower
and so on

thanks
John

TH10:
LAB
INFERNOS
XBOW
NEW STUFF with the other 3 builder

once those are up and running:
SPELL FACTORY
XBOW LVL2
ARCHER TOWER LVL 11
CANONS LVL12
DE DRILL LVL5-6

Infernos first
then Lab
then the rest i would say

but 10 million a day at TH10?... how much are you getting per day TH9?

max new de drill asap !

The first thing you need to do is army camps
Infernos
Lab
Spell factory
Dark Pumps
3rd Xbow
The rest

I think you might need to rethink that 10m per day.

Even if you manage to hit 10 mil a day, how are you going to have a free builder every 12 hours? After the first few days, even the shortest upgrades (cannons) are 6 days. If you are going to farm a crazy amount like that, you're going to have to keep one builder free or max out all the time.

I started with lab, inferno's and DE drill (straight to lvl6). After that all the new stuff and started maxing the inferno's and upgraded the third xbow to lvl3. Yesterday I started with wizz towers. Upgrading both inferno's at the same time made me very vulnerable to hog attacks, but I wanted them maxed ASAP. My priorities now are wizz towers and camps. Probably going to keep one builder working on the xbows and slowly work my way up to cannons and archer towers.

The he best tip I can give you is to have one builder working on cannons and archer towers. Those are pricy but don't take long. That's the best way to have free builders on a regular basis.

TH10:

Incorrect order, you're focusing too much on Gold upgrades! In fact, the more crucial upgrades for TH10 are actually Elixer based; which makes your base/account offensively stronger than a TH9, and with it better farming opportunities.

Here's what makes sense to me as a new TH10:
-Spell Factory Lvl5 - to get the 5th spell ASAP.
-Laboratory Lvl 8 - to start upgrading troops ASAP
-Army Camps Level 8 - to start having 20 more units!
-Inferno Level 1-3 (constant)
-DE Drill
-3rd XBOW
-Lab upgrades (Freeze, Golems 5, Wiz 6, WB 6 etc)
-So on and so forth.


As for 10Million a day, I have to say that you can only do that with Gem Boosting Barracks. The time required to train army enough to gain that much loot per raid would lower the raid frequency.

Secondly, you also need to balance your Elixer usage. Unlike TH9, you cannot keep raiding and have infinite amount of Elixer (ie; maxed at 8million) simply because the dependency of Spells are so high you won't be able to gain any. What I find myself doing is using DE based Armies to gain elixer and gold, then switching over to a Elixer based army to gain DE. So it's no longer simply farming for all 3 resources, there will be spans where gold no longer flows in at the sacrifice to gain elixer or DE.

Thanks for the reply but I can't insert this info as you have put what lvl...
As for the loot during the summer holiday I can play up to 16 hours a day so yes I think it's possible dome days when Im on hols I farm 16-20 mil a day

Hello there!
My townhall 10 finished last night, about 12 hours ago! It's a great feeling to continue progressing and I encourage you to do so!

I left town hall 9 maxed. All defenses (excluding two Archer towers that are about a day from being finished), all elixir items maxed, and most importantly with 8,001,000 of each resource. Additionally, I brought three open builders, with two more on their way.

I would highly recommend the bolded remark

My upgrade list in order goes like this:
Built DE drill, 1M Elixir
Built Inferno Tower, 5M Gold
Built AT, Cannon, Gold Mine, Elixir Pump, and all traps- Cost is negligible
While I've been waiting for my other builders to finish, my third builder has been upgrading the buildings in step 3, they are all now in the 3-5 level range, as well as continuing to farm gold

My elixir storage is refilled, and I am 270,000 gold away from enough to build my second IT. As soon as I hit 5 million, I will begin that upgrade, I will stop upgrading step 3 buildings and use that builder to build the IT.
When my Drill gets done in several hours, I will re-use that builder to upgrade the drill. This cycle will continue...

Elixir upgrades by priority- DE Drill/Spell Factory, Army camps, Freeze spell upgrade, Troop upgrades
(Time passes)

Once the drill is at level 6, both infernos are built, as is the new Xbow, I will focus on getting my new buildings up to par. Ie- Archer tower, cannon, collectors to level 11 like all of my others, and my Xbow to level three like the others.
After that I will focus my efforts on upgrading "Townhall 10 upgrades" and move forward.

This priority list is suited for my play style, and while I recomend it, it isn't for everyone! I wish you luck!

Feel free to check my progress- Chris, clan- Weeping Wizards

Infernos 1-3
Army camp level 8
Spell Factory 5

That should be priority (any can be first)

10M per day is possible my avg is 8 mil per day at TH10 with no boosting. There are quite a few days when my GG goes up 10 mil though you will only net about 7-8 with the nexting costs.

you don't need the DE drill unless you farm with Dark troops

to be honest.. i would do the skull walls before TH10 completes

As soon as that upgrade finishes get your first Inferno Tower, get your new collectors, get your new DE Drill, get your Lab and Spell Factory going (decide between Spell Factory and DE Drill). If you want, you can build the new defenses (Archer Tower and Cannon) as they only take about 5 minutes or so to build and you can use a minimal amount of gems to get them to Level 5 each without stopping. Your last X-Bow can wait as keeping your gold for the second Inferno would probably more beneficial. Hope this helped ^.^:cool:

Thanks for the reply you seem to be doing good this is good info thanks hope th10 is going good for you

Could someone tell me how the raiding is, are there still collector bases worth attacking and are 20 army spots worth 26 million elixir?

You can do a quick calculation.. all your TH8 loot will be 50% of what it used to be.. and all your TH9 loot will be 90% of that it used to be

if you were collector raiding TH8s for 260/260, expect that to drop to 130/130

as for Army camps.. doesn't hurt to have more troops

Ok this is good information I see that 3rd xbox isn't that important I will try do inferno towers as soon as possible and lab or spell factory

Could someone tell me what to upgrade fist in the spell factory when you go TH10 btw I will be farming so don't say pakkas or dragons please

What I did

Out of the Gates
2 Infernos
2 Camps
New Stuff

After that
Finnish Camps
Squeeze in the Lab upgrade
Wizard towers to Max level

(Logic thus far - once your infernos are up, they are huge. So I wanted to get my second most important defense maxed before adding more levels, so I maintain some of my power while upgrading)

Currently
Barbarian King lvl 17
Spell Factory
1 camp and 1 Wizard Tower (when finished I will have all 8 structures maxed)

Lab - Minion lvl 6

-So far I am pretty please with my upgrade order. The only attacks that have really done significant damage are mass dragon with plenty of spells and heros. Since I am farming in Masters III, camps were extreemly improtant to get going as fast as possible. I am excited to see the power I will have once my camps and minions are maxed out and my spell factor is back online with an addition storage space

Plans -
DE drill - waited on this since my clan was trophy pushing (heros were on the back burners) and I was grinding so hard for camps
Additional Inferno Tower Levels in conjunction with maxing my Air Defenses (I don't want two infernos down at the same time, way too important for go raids)
Give 3rd x-bow up to speed with the other 2

I believe the new update will bring a new unit - so I think upgrading my DE barracks will fit in here


Low Priority Upgrades
-Mortar - high on this list but functionally not a major jump from Th9 capabilities
-Archer Tower - More important than cannons to deal with balloonions but a bit steep in price
-Cannon - these things are just not a huge % of your defensive power
-X-bow - that last level adds very little DPS, looks scary but not a major change in actual damage per second
-traps, traps are important but they also require rearming costs and are useless one triggered (before rearming) - I just figure I get bigger "bang" for my buck upgrading structures


Lab Upgrades
My intention is to start with getting my freeze spell up to snuff. That way when another spell boosting special comes along I can get a taste of the effectiveness of freeze + rage

Then it depends on my elixir situation

High Elixir
Dragons then lightening spells - then Wizards, Wallbreakers, Goblins - leftovers

Low Elixir
Goblins, Wallbreakers, Lightening spells, Dragons, Wizards and leftovers (give or take depending on supply)


Heros - I plan to try and keep at least one if not two going. These are a HUGE help when raiding at high trophy ranges. I am hoping that minions lvl 6 and maxed camps will make having my queen available less necessary.

10mil per day personal best or 10mil a day average?
That's a huge difference right there! I've done 10mil on a single occasion as a TH10, but it was 14 hours of constant playing + luck on my side(and only bagging 7-8 into storage, rest goes to the cost of the next button).

Kidcudi was implying that he wanted to do 10mil a day average. Which to me is quite impossible without gem boosting.

Hey Bro,
I am New. to Th10 too but I have a plan according to which I am Gonna upgrade first of all my aim is to get 3-4 million a day Using Bam Secondly For Me top Priority would be Inferno's and xbows. I am Gonna Upgrade my inferno's to max level and den would be going for xbows, First of all what I am actually doing is to get everything on same level, i had maxed my th9 except walls and heroes, so I am first gonna try to upgrd d newly archer tower and canon to d same level.
Now Inferno's our my top priority so before upgrading d new defenses i would be going for level 2 inferno's and den for all the other. upgrades, The Lab is a very important thing, i generally go with the costliest troop first so i have actually started to upgrd my drag to level 4.Army Camps are vital if You are hunting trophies but I would rather do them after i am finished bringing defenses to the same level and drill too, since d troop takes a lot of time to upgrade You have enough time to actually collect elixir.I hope Dis helped You, if u appreciate it Please Subscribe ti my Youtube channel - Vgamesism. http://www.youtube.com/user/vgamesism. I hope You are over with Th 10 soon :)

Do your Goblins, Wall Breakers, or Wizards. Those are probably some of the more elite farming upgrades you could get at TH10. I really want those maxed Wizards in my camps but alas I'm only a weak TH9:(

Well I guess if you're buying 3 of them, you can't use them all at once. Then again my PS4 isn't that important either. :p

Yes I was saying that I can do 10 mil a day as a TH10 just barching or bamming in cristal or high gold. I dpon't know how it can compare to TH9 but i am doing great as a th9 I find also I think infernos relly help in gold protection

I was optimistic like you once. I was doing high numbers like you are now and did my 90% of my 1billion Gold Grab as a TH9.

Take my advice, TH10 is a significantly slower farming rate. What actually slows it down is the build times(days 7 min -14 max ), as you run out of builders to even farm for. So you end up waiting (unless you gem them) for them to finish rather than continuing farming. I was an active farmer doing access of 100mil per week in TH9, since going to TH10, I can barely do 50mil. Not because I don't farm, it's just slow to find raids, build armies, and upgrade stuff in combination of everything altogether.

I'm now more a casual player than an active one now, not by choice, but by conversion since TH10. So in other words, if you haven't finished all TH9 upgrades (including walls), I would suggest you stay back and continue doing those before even thinking of going TH10. I've been telling clan mates in Th9 to start farming DE for their heroes too before moving up.

The only exception is if you're getting bored of TH9, then TH10 will make it more challenging for you, if you're up for the challenge. But if you think you can get more gold/retain resources as TH10, don't be, because loot is definitely harder to get and you still get smashed by stronger TH10s and good raiders out there.

I attack both as long as it has 150k for sure I take it down

Th8 is no longer an option as TH10. Gone are the 300k/300k and they turn to 200/200 at best. The 250k/250k are now much less and worthless since the army you're building/spells likely costs that much in elixer, and the number of NEXT buttons you're pressing make your 200K raid worth about 100K, get used to hitting next 100-150 times.

So are you saying that farming at TH10 is dead and that looning is the only way?

Just pulling this back up as in 14 days I am going TH10

I just hit TH10 3 days ago.

Within the first few hours i started both inferno towers, my lab, my new DE drill, and with the last builder I did the new gold mine, elixir collector, cannon, and archer tower all to level 3.

The next morning I started my new x-bow.

Next on my list will be my spell factory, minion level 6, my clan castle, and DE Drill to Level 6.

Next priorities will be army camps and getting new cannon, archer tower, and x-bows up to maxed TH9 levels and upgrading my freeze spell.

I'm near-maxed TH9 and just started TH10 upgrade, primarily for the better offensive abilities in wars.

Something that nobody in this thread has mentioned is how going th10 will effect you war matching, and therefore effect your clan. I believe that the most heavily weighted factor is "does this defensive structure exist"...therefore by dropping 2 ITs, 3rd bow + others right away, I would be instantly pulling in a (likely) much stronger opponent match than myself.

I plan to do camps, spells, lab, troop upgrades, resources before adding any new defensive buildings. In this way I will be upgrading my offensive abilities first.

I am still debating troop upgrade order...thinking pekka4 or archer7 first? Was thinking Wiz6, but the stats really don't look like this is really a big upgrade...?
