Hey guys was interested to see if you guys reckon its worth full maxing defenses for th9 before going to 10. Iv got full skulls and about 20 legos. Heroes combined 24, max xbows, splash. Or should I stay until im completely done?
Cheers

From what i have read on the forums, TH9 is a very important TH. I would say max it.
imo if you have half lego or even full lego, you're ready for th 10
it's worth maxing at every town hall :) so why not at th 9?
You could go to TH10 now as well. Depends on why you want to move.
TH10 is good on defense, but loot gained is pretty slow compared to Th9. If you want to do legos, stay else move up.
Remember that early days of any TH is a bit of bargain, both on offence and defense. Takes about 4 weeks to stabilize on TH10.
I maxed TH9 with full legos and 30 combined hero levels before I went to TH10.
It's great to have maxed walls but I don't believe maxing them before going TH10 is required, you will be fine for the most part, especially while farming.
Moving into cup chasing and wars, people with blue walls still get 3-starred so don't think it will have you win that much more defenses (Master I and up) because of it.
In my opinion, go to TH10, get your army camps, xbows and inferno's maxed asap, then farm dark elixir in Master III until your heroes are maxed or you get bored. The gold and elixir will come naturally for defenses and troops and you should be able to keep them busy for the most part.
You would probably be sweet if you went to TH10 however the loot penalty will slow you down so in the long run its better to max TH9, at least all your defenses... I wouldn't stress about getting 250 x Legos unless it means a lot to you...
I'm doing Legos now, and a few more DE research's to get done :)
I have maxed TH9 except walls, heroes, and traps. Best choice I've made in the game so far. TH9 defense is awesome when maxed and combined with a good layout. Keeps my de safe and intimidates most attackers enough that I'm usually sniped regardless of loot I have on hand. IT's are nice but not unstoppable. I think you need solid defense turrets to back them up.
There is no "should" or "should not". Only what you prefer.
All we can give you are pros and cons and you decide.
I went to th10 when i couldn't keep all my builders busy any more.
i.e. buildings were maxxed, but lab, walls and heroes were not.
th10 gives you bigger army, higher troop levels, more spells, new defences
If you attack in long sessions you don't have to worry much about losing loot on defence
Walls don't really matter all that much, unless you want to get onto the leaderboard.
Just FYI, look at the current number 1 player, sahilcrazy, at 4584 cups. Majority of his walls are level 9 and his air defense not even maxed.
His heroes, aka star makers, are maxed though, that and max offensive troops is what it's all about, imo.
As I'm typing this, I'm searching (and skipping) for my last raid as a TH9... just one more raid to fill up my gold storage to 8 million gold, then TH10 finished in a couple minutes!
I have all maxed defenses, and about 70-80 lego walls. For me, that's good enough and it's time to move on!
I'd say for you to max your defenses, and get a few more lego walls until you think you are ready to hit TH10! Remember to fill your storages all the way to full and do a couple more walls if necessary as the 14-day TH10 upgrade is surprisingly long (for me to impatiently wait!)
Good luck! :D
True. Except TH9 is a different beast, unlike any other townhall that precedes it.
There are two levels of walls to increment at TH9, level 9s go for 1 mil each, level 10s go for 3 mil each.
Heroes can max out at lvl 30.
These two things (walls and heroes) are what cause TH9 maxing to be a very inefficient endeavor once all defenses have been maxed.
You basically are forced to have 3 out of 5 builders sleeping for the remainder of the time you need to grind Gold and DE for walls and heroes, respectively.
On average, this will take players 6-9 months, once defenses have been maxed, until the rest of TH9 is truly maxed (heroes and walls). That is over half a year of 3 sleeping builders that could have been working on TH10 upgrades. The increase of heroes to level 30 is HUGE, but the increase in walls from level 9 to level 10 is marginally better in relation to the cost and time dedicated towards upping them by one level.
It becomes such a tedious and inefficient task once defenses are maxed, which doesn't happen at any other TH level the way it does at TH9.
This is why it's ok to upgrade to TH10 a bit prematurely. I did it at all lego walls, and both heroes lvl 15+, maxed defenses/offenses, maxed lab (minus just the last level of golem).
If you max every town hall up to town hall 9 it's really not that hard.. All your defences will need 3 upgrades at most and usually 1 or 2. So it's always worth it.
Thanks for all your suggestions guys awesome input. Think ill stay at th9 for a bit longer at least for a month or so and just smash out my defences. Im not that fussed about walls ill just do them when I could be bothered.
