Was just wondering this. I am currently level 68, TH8 and I was wondering if the fourth builder's hut would still be worth it. Some of the higher level people in my clan say that the extra builders are useless to them as the upgrades are too expensive to have many if them going at once. So, do you think the fourth builder's hut would still be worth it to me and at what level does it become obsolete?
Depends on how fast you can gather resources. I'm at th10 and I'd like to have a 6th or even a 7th builder...
Never. They are always usefull.
If your clanmembers say upgrades are too expensive to have them all busy, it's a sign they aren't active enough imho.
Amen to that goodguy! I'm at th8 lvl81 and wouldn't mind more builders but if you don't spen enough time farming i could see them bein useless
agree with this. from all the th10 loot is bad threads I wouldn't have thought it. but now i'm th10, I need more builders.Quote:

There isn't a point where they stop becoming usefull (untill you have no more upgrades left) when you are say an almost maxed th 8 you probaly wont have use for all your builders as you will just have a few expencive upgrades to do, then when you upgrade to th 9 you will need them all again untill you are almost maxed for th 9.
This is an impossible question for us to answer, since we do not know your level of activity or efficiency. I think for most people, there comes a time where they are not active enough to keep all the builders busy. Sure, some people can stay active enough to need all 5 (if not 6 for Goodguy) but not most players. Keep in mind, the people here on the forums represent some of the most active, dedicated, and helpful people in the game and do not represent your average clasher. For myself, I have had at least three builders available since December as I upgrade walls and heroes at the end of TH9. So I am definitely not needing those extra two right now.
I found I could use 4 builders at TH8 and they were still useful at early TH9.
At late TH9, I almost always have 1 or more idle (out of 4).
The point really is though, that more builders mean you have to play (or pay) more to use them.
Are you willing and able for this?
Once you have maxed defences on a TH10 the 4th builder becomes redundant.
I completely agree.. I'm gonna be so mad about buying that 4th builder when I'm a maxed th 10.Quote:

Thanks for the responses guys. I would've bought the fourth hut ages ago, but pocket purchases have cost me over 600 gems. I'll have to think whether it's worth it or not.
Cheers.
Had all 5 busy till I maxed out TH 10. Now rare that I have two busy.
That's because you are a god bro;):cool:Quote:

If i had less than 5 builders, this game would Drive me Crazy.
i am level 93 and i'd love to have 10 builders Huts :)
They become useless once the upgrades are done - many of us have had sleeping builders for quite a while.
Keeping them busy is not a problem for an active farmer.
If anything it gets even more useful as time goes on.
At the end of th9 when you are just doing walls;)
Nah it depends on how active u are...i barely kept 2 builders busy in the beginning of th10 but now at the end...i could use some extra builders..and i have 5....to keep me busy im focusing on the lower upgrade times like archer towers and cannon and once i know i wont be raiding much i do something else that takes 14d or something like that.
As Daddy has pointed out, they are really useful until a certain point. I too have idle builders especially now that my traps are all maxed. However, its never bad to have 4 or even 5 huts because we know SC will always have an update on the horizon.Quote:

if your real low on loot it's best to upgrade the exta pumps you get as their cheap and the last few upgrades take a while.
you will always need it so get it. BTW does anyone here want me to make them a signature i see a lot of you dont have them
Well past where the OP is. I only had trouble keeping all 5 builders busy once I got to the max upgrades for everything at TH10, when everything is 6.4 - 8.0 million to upgrade.
Now I have all 5 builders sleeping as the only thing I have left to upgrade is the new Castle upgrade (will start it soon), walls, and heroes (both lvl 15, happy with them for now)
I have 5 builders and they don't have a time off for months. If you farm proactively and always get resources before an upgrade finishes you'll never see a builder slacking off.
When your maxed it will be useless.Quote:

I have 5 builders and they only become useless after you finish all your upgrades and are left with only walls to do. I'm currently TH9 and all my builders are sleeping because all I have left are walls, they are barely used now, but once I finally go to TH10 they wont be idle other than when I'm trying to raise money for the next upgrade.
If I knew now what I knew then I would have purchased the 5 builders when I was still TH5 or lower.
I have 5 builders and I had them all working non stop since th7.
I now have a wall designated builder as I'm working on lavas and I farm far too much gold too quickly to max my walls effectively while keeping them all busy.
My advice to everyone is to get all 5 builders.
When you are a 100% maxed th10 your builders will be useless. Then again they will release several new things before I ever get there.
Never becomes useless, depends on who much resources you get
