Do you guys know any easy DE farming strategies for TH8 without going above 1600-1700 trophies.
Pick off storages. DE is plentiful up in 1600+ dont see why you wont go up there if you want to DE farm.... You wont see much DE, let alone easily accessible storages below gold 2
Go above 1600 otherwise it'll be a slow grind.
I mean you can probably grab 500-750 de a raid using giants/archers/barbs/gobs/wb in the 1400-1600 range by why do that when you can average 1,000+ a raid using the same troops in the 1600-1900 range? I sometimes mix in balloonian above 1700 since I can usually find a 1200+ de base that I can steal the DE from but it requires rage spells so it's usually an overnight build.
yeah. the higher you go themore de you get man. below 1600 it will be a slow grind. even those 700+ raids will be somewhat rare. in gold 1 / crystal 3 wich isnt all that high up you can use balloonion and get 1500 or so DE every attack. without all that much nexting.
Don't be afraid of high trophies, just put your TH outside and keep your gold low, and more often than not you'll get sniped.
My alt account is currrently farming DE around 2200 with level 5 barbs and archers (1 barrack on barbs, 3 on archers), using gold for walls... it takes a lot of hitting next, but it's fast and easy and makes plenty of DE.
I'm not scared of moving up in trophy range it's just that I mostly play on weekends so I lose about 150-200 trophies.
The 1600-1700 range isn't bad. Not many bases are over 1,000 but most are over 500.
A good amount of bases between 1600-1700 offer some good DE between the 1-2K range. Not as much DE as you would see offered in Crystal but for a nice mix of easy loot and a touch of DE, Gold League is perfect for me.
I could always find a ton of dark elixir in gold I/crystal III (right around 1900 trophies). I'd usually have to attack up a town hall level or two (I'm TH8) but it's easy to get 1000+ DE each attack if you look for bases with poorly defended DE storage. Barch in there and take the storage and pick of the drills if they have any good amount in them.
