Th? Ready?

So i got this idea because lots of people are posting am I ready for TH blablabla,
why don't we post them all in one thread, i'll start it off.

MY story:
got 5m gold pumped up, 1 free builder, other 3 will be free in ±3 days, have all my walls level 7, and don't want to start at level 8, here's my base.
Attachment 4617
Opinions?

My opinion:

No.

A few defensive structures still undeveloped.
Archer towers
Teslas
Cannon.

Get these maxed and I'd say you're ready

Edit: I forgot about air defense.. Max them too before you progress town hall.

I think you meant start TH 9, not 8. :p Max everything out prior to TH jump.

Depending how one plays the game I wouldn't say maxing mines , pumps etc is important before progressing th. these are cheap upgrades.

TH8 is very long and gets boring after a while. Go for it, your defenses arent too shabby

now th8 vs th9 got 10% loot bonus lol.

and in my books, you are far from maxing out th9 lol.

walls, de storage, de drill, air def, tesla.

but yeah, nice layout.

and whats with your extra wall on the outside

Bump bump bump

Go for it
You get extra things to buy. More walls and less loot

What's stopping you :p

Ps pippa say hello to delta and exec for me

I'd say hold off th9 for a bit, try to look like this hehe:

Hmm search clans for Bonbee 2.5, look at the leader, Toronto, he got his th9 today... Level 95, th8.. Ikr, insane...


What buildings? The collectors and mines? Everything else is maxed or getting maxed. If plan runs smooth, I'll hit th9 with fully maxed th8 (forgetting about collectors and mines, I got no patience. )

I like this base aesthetically (wall structures remind me of Van Halen) ... but do those spring traps work much? Seen others like that and have been curious.

Sorry if this is of-topic.

Moe is set and couldnt be more ready. You are fairly close. I would make air defenses and teslas before you go to TH9 but if you're terribly bored, I would say just go for it.

Erm, I am level 85 and not nearly ready, so not exactly a good metric to be going by.


I say hold off till you are literally done. The new penalty that TH 9 takes for attacking TH 8 just doesn't make it worth it anymore. The update really made maxxing even more important.


Side note: Moe is ready IMO.

Nope. Once the loot was figured out, I did a 180 on that. I said in that thread that I would wait to make sure they didn't mess with loot, and sure enough they did. TH 8 till level 100 probably. :p

ZACH is Back!!! Yes I would wait until you are pretty much literally maxed, a mistake that I made :/ (Upgraded to Th9 at level 66)

Why is it bad for not upgrading until every last defenseis maxed? I think it's great, I wish this is what I did.

In regards to you saying his level is high, I'm pretty sure Moe's base is higher leveled than my base ( in terms of xp gained from upgrades) yet my level is higher. I wasnt sure if you could explain how getting your builders later would correlate with having a high xp, but I got my 5th builder this week, I'm lvl95, and this is my base.

Same here, I am level 94 and still with a lvl 8 town hall :p. I was a trophy chaser for a very long time.

Sucks to be a farmer, I just take resources and run away and ignore townhalls so no EXP for me. :(

Working on my EXP atm by mass donations though. :cool:

Thanks for responding so quickly i think i'll max some of my archer towers my last canon and maybe 1 AD then i'll will go for it, i'm just so curious how bad the loot will be really

Hm ?

Nono, don't misunderstand, I fully support the notion to maxed one base before moving on, if you can up those barracks as well, thats a bonus.

And I was under the assumption that he, similar to many of us, gemmed our 4th and 5th builder.

As such, taking a reference of myself, a th8 at lv66 with 5 builders, I would expect myself to be fully maxed out th8 at around lv75 or maybe plus abit.

As such, seeing a lv86 TH8 with maxed out base(quick glance), I made the post saying that he held out for too long.

And take note, there was no sarcasm or intention to strike him down.

Organise the building times to free up on different days and upgrade your walls.

One of the biggest complaints I hear from other TH9's is the length of time to upgrade walls. You will be upgrading those skull walls faster at TH8 than you would at TH9, and they do make a difference.

How is that set up working for you against the new wall breakers?

You can open up all the storage compartments with 8 wall breakers :confused:

It's not so bad really, the biggest difference I find is almost always using my whole army, since I'm going after TH8 and 9. However I maxed my TH8 except for a few wall and pumps. All the new stuff we get at TH9 doesn't provided any looting advantage over TH8 it just keeps you on par.

Junliang your base is like the perfect base for the new wb AI! You need to make some more compartments quickly!

;) I know right.

I have alot more ideas for better bases, but 2 of my wiz towers are still upgrading, so I'm in the mood of just trying new bases and see how they perform.

It will be 1st april when all my splash towers are maxed out.. but till then, lets have some fun haha. :p

I still can't recreate the circumstances where the wall breakers continue to widen an already open compartment, which is quite annoying.

My base currently is just a load of stepped boxes, but is slightly vulnerable to raged goblins even with level 9 walls, though I have two splash down at the moment and the xbows creating a problem.

Still, after a week I have have had a few attacks that have used well over ten wall breakers (equivalent of 20 old wall breakers) and they haven't managed to blow a hole in a non segmented middle section.

Mark my words, soon we will all be complaining about the amount of wall breaker space required ;)

Tim, What is your current base design?

My status, 1 Archer Tower and on Air Defense tu upgrade. In the lab, healer spell, balloons and wizards could go on
Level up. Barbarian king at level 3. I am considering starting the TH together with the air defense despite mines and collectors not beeing maxed. Suggestions ?

Regards

nope.
you could survive with lv1 pumps;)

But for all the trophy hunter pumps really help a lot? Because they not farming like us. Am I right?

Yes, u are

My opinion No
When upgrading th remember these two things.
First it is cool because you get new deffences
Second when upgrading to th9 you will be in the big leage so be prepared some dragons and peekas to attack you. also higher townhall is harder it is for farming. consider this before upgrading

Started my th7 upgrade together with the last air defense 3 days ago. Today got the 20k de and started the Barbie King lvl 5. The lab has done is job besides ballons and de troops. Consider myself ready for th8.
or do I miss something ? ;)

Can people actually build and upgrade their base from mine/collector resources? lol

I just click on those to get rid of the annoying gold/elixir icons! haha
