Farming with BARCH: Spells?

All lightning spells for mortars, cc troops, and final percentages seem to work well with barch.:)

2 heal and 1 rage for me.

Unless I'm simply more risk averse than most, and refuse to spend 200k gold in nexting.

Personally I just cook rage spells constantly and use them where appropriate.

These are all right. How can anyone, even someone with elixir upgrades left, say you shouldn't carry things that increase your damage or destroy mortars/cc troops, or heal your troops?

If you don't make spells you just handicap yourself and it's you're own fault you have to skip that 400/400/3000 raid because you need a rage spells to get in or that level 7 mortar would take your troops down too fast. It's common sense and math...those two things are all you need for anything in clash.

1 of each. 1 for each situation.

I'd say yes, except for freeze, not too useful for barch, you shouldn't be barching well upgraded townhall 10s unless all the loot is outside. So at Townhall 10 add another lightning.

I use either 2 lightning and a heal, 3 heal, or 3 rage. I train the rage overnight and do the lightning/heal and heal during the day.

well, I mean, I guess I should've been more clear but I am a TH8, so... 1 lightning, 1 heal, 1 rage. im thinking of working 2 wizards into my army and replacing lightning with another heal cuz lightning really is only for CC troops. but I agree, I guess freeze isn't so help, u can get another heal instead. but it does help with dem infernos... I tried to lvl 3 8 pekka a TH10 with easy 400K storages...only got 1 storage, 100K. they were all in the same compartment...they were the only buildings in the compartment...

since youre a th8 go for 2 lightnings and 1 heal if youre farming relatively high up like 1400+.....lightning is good for DE and heal will help keep your barbs alive in case theres some decent loot in the an accessible storage...

but if youre pretty low then go for all heal...with lv5 barch you can 3 star upto intermediate th8 bases...with your king if necessary...but its best not to use more than 1 spell for a regular raid....if you find a particularly filled up th7 then use your spells where necessary but i usually never use all 3 unless im getting a 200k+ elixir storage raid with decently upgraded WTs and mortars

try to avoid using rage...because a barch or bam exit the spell radius too quickly to really be effective...plus its the most expensive spell in time and elixir at th8

I use rage spells with BAM and 8 wallbreakers.

I find that one rage spell and 8 wb is usually enough to break into most TH8/9 DE storages if it's behind 2 layers of walls, using BAM
And 8 wallbreakers with BAM lets you break into most storages behind one layer of walls w/o using spells.

But that's the way I play, trying not to use more than 1 spell in each raid.
If you use more than one, 1 heal and 1 rage will probably be better than 2 rages.

2 rage and 2 jumps mainly due to me wanting de

I use 4 Lightning Spells. Great for storage raids -- getting to destroy two mortars really helps barch. Of course I don't always use spells. Especially if I'm farming for elixir.
