Step 3: Get rich!

The higher you can get the better the loot. Here are some screenshots from my raids:

Looning in Cystal (GOOD):


Looning in Masters II (BETTER):


Looning in Champions League (BEST):


The reason is 95% of players in Masters II or higher have maxed defences/heroes/troops therefore plenty of resources on offer.

Those cup wins tell a story too.

Yeah, but the bonus is bigger there. I found farming in Champs very enjoyable, and maxed TH10 there, however I needed my AQ to ensure the 50% on some bases. Once her and the BK were upgrading the wins weren't guaranteed. This can result in big trophy drops and back in Masters.

Can't have it all I guess.

BARCH still the best for me :P

Fast production
Less cost

Great write up. I will have to share this with the clan! :)

Id recommend searching out a thread written by Zach (one of the mods) some really good looning stuff in there.

One other tip as I see you are farmimg elixer. A whole CC of ground troops (wizzies/archers) can be taken out with one loon. A cheaper option than lightning when elixer is being farmed. Draw them all into a corner so that they are all on one spot then release a loon slightly before them. They will immediately shoot the loon down, it will land on them and the splash will kill all of them.

Thanks for sharing!

I have learnt something new and in fact tried using a Balloon to kill the CC troop, but missed the targets. Guess practice will make perfect? :o

Thanks! I have subscribed to your Champs' Balloonions thread too, and was in fact motivated by it to start this mainly for farming purposes at Crystal league. :)

The rewards sure look enticing in the upper leagues, especially the Dark Elixirs! Will continue to climb upwards!

I have to agree with powercage. At TH10, the loot penalty is really quite stiff and using barch will reduce a large amount of bases you can loot and even win enough times to maintain your trophies. That's what I felt with my Healer-Giant combo.

Still using TH9 troops (all Army Camps and Level 6 Minion upgrading) and still doing fine. :)

This is a good guide except those only about 100 different loonion threads that aren't different at all from this

Not everybody goes YouTube or can access the videos (I am one of them during office hours), so I'm just offering another platform for clashers to refer to.

Also, have been noticing debates about poor loots in CoC in this forum so thought I could help put a stop to that too.

Too true! Youtube vids are great, but usually need audio, whereas this and guides like it (wish there were more) allow folks to read during their "breaks" from work.

I mean, even if I was at lunch it'd be frowned on if I was watching some clash video with dub-step blaring and some British guy saying, "Next, mate, you've got to lure out the Clan support troops!" ;)

Thanks for the guide!

Farming elixir with loonion doesn't really work out, because your army costs around 90k elixir, and you are taking in around 170k elixir each raid, which means around 80k PURE profit each raid.
Bam is the best strat for elixir accumulation.
