How can you better yourself when someone attacks you? How can you make it to where they dont take much resources? Everytime i get attacked they take way to much... Help?
My advice is not to leave any if at all possible. I play fewer, yet much longer attack periods throughout each week. Plan to have workers available to spend loot from a long session. I no longer "dabble" as I did at lower th levels( just moved to th 8) -- I pack a lunch and watch my taped shows( huge television watcher). Sort of a 2 birds and 1 stone attempt. :rolleyes: Also, if you have to leave some, it helps to have CC full to help discourage quasi-committed attackers. If it is not in the storage -- they can't take it! :o
Make sure storages are in different compartments. Keep at a reasonable trophy level (for TH6, 1100, TH7 1300, TH8 1500, etc) Keep your TH outside walls, attackers will often give you a free shield.
Its so simple but effective - if you have 4 million gold do not log off until you've used it all.
Or a big chunk of it, keep at least 50-100k for next time you play.Quote:

It comes to a point I found out you kind of got to choose resources or trophies you can protect resources and th but its better if you choose one or the other personally like the person said put your th out side you will get a free shield if they destroy it that 10 hours attack free no one to touch you and you only loose around 10 trophies that easy to get back also you don't need to make it easy for them I got 2 tesla 4 bombs 2 big bombs 1 air defence and 1 acher watching over my th so you gotta put up a fight but my resources are safe and hardly get touched now
before when my th was inside walls I would loose nearly 100k now with my th outside most I lost yet is about 56k you get people just attacking you for that one star you be surprised how many people do it lol
I would add a picture of my base but I don't know how to add a pic lol
If you're saving up and getting attacked a lot, you're too high in the trophies of your level (probably). Also, when I save up for something I attack, train troops, and watch TV or something until my troops are trained, occasionally typing something into chat or collecting resources to be active. It isn't difficult, and I'd like to point out that saving up using collectors and mines does not work if that's what you're doing.Quote:

Either you care about resources or you care about trophies.Quote:

Use most of your resources before logging off/ when there isn't shield.Quote:

Cheers that seem like a lot messing around to add a pic lol might just leave itQuote:

And the trick to this game - to save more resources you need to learn first how to spend them.
No the trick to this game is to realize trophies don't matter and that the loot penalty does.Quote:

If someone steals 200.000 that's 2 more raids I have to do, I can live with that. Eventually I reach my goal and all is well. I'd say don't worry too much about it but that's just me.
I completely 100% agree with this statement.Quote:

If you want a free 12h shield and you want to save your resources move your TH far from your walls and use traps and other defenses on what you really care about.
Giant bomb is a waste imo especially if you put it next to your out of walls TH.
I don't know if that last message was to me but reason I guard it cost I am 50/50 about protecting my th I use it like bait I know if I leave it unguard most people will drop troops near it so it takes the fight away from my base but having teslas bombs arachers near it will weak the troops that are attacking me and big bombs I had no problems yet I use them a lot and I can take out a lot troops at once its all to do with placing them and last I do want free 12 hour shield but at same time I want trophies so if you destroy my th I get a free shield if you loose I get trophies so its a win win for me as long as the person don't get 2 stars
But Looking at your pic your th is were people can attack and not get hit back you don't want a base were people can hit and not get hit back I try and keep everything close as possible
Simply keep the minimal amount necessary, dont keep stockpiling it and use a farming base with your TH on the outside for free shields if you are really having that much trouble.
This is fine too, but then you aren't posting on the forums complaining about the resource loss.Quote:

Why should you make it easy you wanna destroy my th you can but your going have to work for it like I said I be happy with free shield or trophies you wanna one star me you can but it won't be a walk in the parkQuote:

This is the worst of both worlds. You're basically not guarding resources or trophies particularly well by doing this.
But I do want both worlds like I said if they do destroy my th they get trophies but they won't get my resources they be lucky to get 2 stars if they don't destroy it they won't get resources and I get trophies and I do want multiple hits I want to be hit more than once also
why should you let some one go easy on your base make them work make them use all there troops up someone deploys 1 archer on your th and gets 1000 elixir then leaves it's basicly 100% profit for them at least make them spend about 1000 elixir worth troops on your base and last I do guard my storage it's in middle of base with 3 canons 2 wizards around it if you could see my base you could see how it is set up
You are hopeless.Post your clan name and user name so we can see your awesome base.Or your precious trophy count.
I'm pretty sure I explained this already.Quote:
