I've recently been trying out new farming techniques and I found these two to be the best. But which one is better from a farmers point of view? I like to get 50% on half my raids so I can maintain my trophy level. Please help

Barch. (10chars)
I go barch with 8WB. I do this so i can do storage raids. No gobs at all. Whenever i used i i lose more.
Barch is the best
BARCH is better
Is it even worth it to attempt BARCH with level 4 troops? I know it is dependant on the level of defenses, but jeez, it amazes me how quickly my troops die and how little damage they are able to do... in my last BARCH attempt, there was a level 1 telsa that I tried and did eventually take down, but really must have taken over 30 troops, unreal.
u can use barbs and archers in th10 and win?
Have you effectively used troops? deploying one by one is terrible. Deploy 5 barbs then 5 archers + more if necessary.
Tier 1 troops are to be used in masses.
That's why the upgrades increase damage very little - it all adds up to dozens.
Golems- troops to be used in singles or pairs, get high DPS upgrades.
I do great with 100 level 4 barbs and 80 archers, 5 Minions and 5 wallbreakers. Key is to fire and forget, look for full collectors and/or storage behind one wall layer then rock them hard and fast: front meat barbarians while archers shoots from behind. Easy 50-54% and 150k+/150k+/300 DE+ loot at Gold 2 range. No spells necessary for me.
I usually like to bring a few giants just to soak up damage while your barch takes the collectors. Always worth bringing a few wb as well just incase you see an easy storage
Thank you for all your help
What's BAG?
Yes. You look for full collectors and and by taking out all the mines collectors, barracks, army camps, etc you can get a 50 percent 1 star. Not on every base, but a lot of people will have 50 percent pf buildings outside their walls. You get used to knowing which bases you can do this on. Also you can take on a harder base with the th outside for 1 star. Bonus if you find pne with both for 2 stars.
Barch is better. BAM is just to weak.
1 lvl 5 minion has 50 dps and 78 hp
2 lvl 5 arch have a combined 40 dps and 80 hp. (Splash negates the combined hp)
Minions cant get hit with mortars which do splash long range or cannons and walls are a nonfactor. The only thing archers cant get hit with is air defense which doesnt do splash. Air bombs can take out a lot of minions, but giant bombbs can take out a lot of archers so that kind of cancels out.
Also, archers can get hit by xbows no matter what while minions can only.get hit when they are set to ground and air. Last edit. the king cant touch minions while both heroes hurt archers.
It is pretty clear which one is superior to have, but I suppose archers are your preference. Just because there are two archers, that doesnt mean that is better than one minion. Possibly why they take up 2 spaces.
barch > bag. they both get loot. barch gets you'r 50% easier.
1 minion > 2 archers. minions are the best farming troop by far.
I like bag.
quick for collector raids, as barbs/archers get diverted by heroes/CC but not goblins
minions are not 1 shotted by archer towers or wizard towers. wizard towers take several shots to take out minions. maybe you need to lvl you'rs up i dunno but they are only 1 shotted by air d wich shoots so slow is not really good minion deffense. and you can mitigate air bombs relatively effectively
archers are 1 shotted by everything in the game no matter their lvl. even wizard towers 1 shots masses of archers at a time at th9 and 10.
and barbs dont last all that long as a shield.
barch is good but minions are most deffinetly > archers,
BArch is fast, that's why I love it.
This. I feel like you are comparing level 1 minions to level 5 or 6 archers Concussion. And you know how you were talking about using barbs and backing them up with archers. Well you do the exact same thing and also use minions. Dont know how that could be worse than without the minions.
I don't always spend my wallbreakers as often I target bases with full collectors and empty storages but if I do:
1: 46 Barbs 2 Wallbreakers
2: 41 Archers 1 Wallbreaker
3 51 Barbs 1 Wallbreaker
4: 3 Barbs 39 Archers 1 Wallbreaker
DE Barrack: 5 Minions.
Total training time: 19 minutes 20 seconds. Make sure to queue in barbarians and archers in their respective barracks prior to attacking to reduce this further.
BARCH is by far better in my opinion
Barch but I had include Giants 6-8
I like bag cuz if my wbs makes a funnel to a gold storage vault, the gobs can get them while the barbs will get distracted
Barch is faster thats the point its faster, but is it better? I notice from using both armys i tend to use around half ( thats the point of farming anyways isn't it?) but, which uses less troops? Barch is faster but bag might use less troops honestly i feel bag uses less troops so for me i can atk faster with it then barch. What i would do if i were u is, make a thread like this ( good job ) then use the top 3 most posted atks and use them all, which do u like? Which works best for you?
Thanks for your time! PM for questions and hate
All you people saying "I use barch but add in ......" are not actually using barch.
BAG for me !
Goblins are really only useful for quickly cleaning up loot, but they do not hold up under fire like barbs do. Not even level 6 goblins, which I love using but only with hogs. I tried adding goblins to b-arch and BAM, and basically the results were inferior.
B-Arch is a powerful army with any level of troops - I've used it extensively from around TH6, through to TH10, and it's sweet spot is definitely TH6-TH9. You don't need giants, or wall breakers, or anything, to get into the core of a juicy base, you just need some skills and possibly spells depending on the strength and layout etc.
BARCH. You can even use them to trophy push. :P
In my opinion, BAG is more effective if you find the right base. The bases to look for are bases with a central area with all the storages in there. Go with 75 archers and barbarians to clear a path and then send in the 50 goblins to tear up the storages.
I used to use BAG back in my town hall 7/8 days and it was really good for farming. I switched to barch at town hall 9 and I do no regret it. barch is super easy to use and I even trophy push with it;). just find collector/exposed storage raids and it's all yours. I also rarely get less than 50% when I farm in gold league, so maintaining trophies is really easy. In fact, i've had to dump trophies sometimes because I went too high :p.
G-BAG is better than BAG.
Otherwise go with barc
BARCH but don't do it on TH9/10's..... X Bows will eat souls faster than barbies ♥♥♥♥ing facilities.
i use BAG because i have mastered it.both are good farming strategies you just have to pick one,love it,live and trust it.both strategies struggle with splash damage but what i love about goblins is that they never get distructed by heroes.adding wallbreakers is no longer beneficial also,i watched my 6 wb get splash today because troops now gang up on walls making it easy for mortar and WT to kill the power of mass
I use barch.
I think BAM is better. lvl5 mini's are great, and it's fast as you're preloading 6 barracks instead of 4. The reason I use BArch instead is because I'm trying to level up my heroes as fast as possible. I refuse to waste any DE.
Bag rox with healing spells and a couple of wbs with 2 or 4 giants first use barbs and archers to take out the outside building then use 1 or 2 archers to distract defenses and then quickly use wbs to blast through the walls and then use ur giants as distractions and then deploy all ur gobs to take the storages
BARCH is the best!!!
I would say barch is superior if you are trying to farm gold/elixir, but if you want DE I don't really recommend barch. For DE this is what I use:
8 giants
12 WB
40 Gobs/Barb
56 Archers
Basically the goal is just blast my way and clear a path to the DE storage and let my goblins loose.
In my experience you aren't going to BARCH (at TH8) your way to a base's core, which is where most village's DE is held.
Now I know someone is going to counter with how BARCH can be used to snag DE drills, which is certainly true, but you're going to spend a lot more time looking for full drills than just going after a storage.
