Th9 Upgrade, What to do first?

Hey guys,

Im sure that out there somewhere someone has asked this question on the forums.. Although this question has another aspect i wish to ask so let's get to it..

So i haven't recently maxed TH8, so obviously wanted to UG TH..
So i decided to buy 6500 gems for when TH finishes upgrading (first time since buying builders)
Now the question is, what to gem first?:rolleyes:
I almost have my mind set on doing my xbows but then their leaves around 3000 gems left..

Initial thoughts were to gem archers to 6 as i use these guys the most, 200 archer army..

Post below what you would do with these gems as soon as you hit TH9?

PS i have max elixer, gold and have 42k dark elixer

Thanks for any advice:cool:

Hi, it depends a bit on your playing style... But beacuse I do like to attack... I usually only gem to boost barracks/hero recovery/spells.... And mines/pumps.

i found that is much more economic use of your gems:
24 hour boost, cost 66 gems, gives roughly 500k gold. Buying that 500 k direct is mich more expensive.

if i do 2-3 raides... I also have 500k... And 2-3 raids on boosted barracks is done in 20 min.

For sure make sure you get a number 5 builder.

I do,agree: get all new defense weapens first, including the x-bows.... Getting bigger camps is also a big thing.

For me the difference L 5 L 6 archers .. Is small...

Try not to get carried away with upping your walls... Upping walls will slow down your ability to up defense/ offense.

Lab, 2 xbows and queen.

Don't gem xbows...
You know most mistakes of premature th9 is because people wants xbows.
Xbows is good... But they are way overrated... What will save you in th9 is the 4th storage, together with 4th wt, ad, teslas, giant bombs...

Gemming for resources is bad idea too, it's much better to boost your barracks.

Gem your lab, SF build time...
Then get the baloon lv.6..

You just need that, the rest gems can be used to boost barrack for bloonions army and spell boost. You will able to farm anyone in gold league in every 15 minutes.

Don't gem anything, especially don't spend gem on resources. Boost your barracks and you will potentially get much more from it. Spend your builders like this:

2 on xbow
1 on spell factory
1 on lab
1 on new buildings (which should be teslas, wz tower, new archer tower and cannon, just build them up and leave them there), then max your E storage to prepare for archer upgrade (or you can upgrade your giant first, saving time for other defense upgrade).

If you desperately need to gem, then gem the spell factory and raid normally while boosting your barracks. Whenever your storages are full, choose the upgrade that is nearly finished and finish it.
