I don't know about you guys, but I love being TH8. I can raid like a champ and push up to about 2,100 if we have a trophy week. I'm 6 days from a golem and 6 from lvl4 minions and the game is still fun. I honestly don't want to go to TH9. I rarely attack a base with two X-bows or lvl7 mortars, but I'm not too bothered. This is where the fun's at!
Anyone else in?

Glad to hear it. I am a TH 7, with everything upgraded except collectors and I am 2 days from reaching TH 8. Looking forward to seeing whats up, and excited to start researching lvl 5 troops.
Just made it to 8, I don't think I'll ever bother to go for 9. It's just more stuff to have to upgrade and re-arrange! Plus you're just in another territory, much heavier attacks from gemmers that you can't compete with unless you spend big ... let them 'ave it.
TH8 for life. Who needs level 6 troops? My defenses can hold up against them just fine. :P
I agree. But it's kinda boring once you've maxed out your walls, but that's just me :)
My second account is recently th8, if they moved the archer queen down to TH8 I would entirely agree. I really miss her on farming raids :( As it stands, TH8 is quite enjoyable.
Weaklings..LOL,peace:)Quote:

there's too much to do, and frankly, even the recent "bribes" SC has offered to encourage more people to join TH9 haven't been enough for all the headaches associated with raiding. i can't imagine giving up raiding TH7s, even if it costs me two x-bows, a wizard tower, an air defense and a tesla.
I'm down to my last 2 weeks at TH8, its kinda sad :(
Teslas are all on their way to lvl 6 and PEKKA's are on their way to lvl 3. TH8 has definitely been the best 3 months of the game so far, but can't wait for lvl 6 troops, X-Bows and the Archer Queen!
End to farming? How so?Quote:

No end to farming here, harvesting is going well in theses parts;)!
Farming at th8 I mean (everything max.) not going to stop farming @th9! ;)Quote:

I think moving to town hall 9 is a part of our "CoC cycle"
I upgraded to TH-9 approx 3 months ago, with the latest patch content I now wish I hadn't. If its pure entertainment your after stick with TH-8 and enjoy the game. Good luck to you & glad to hear there are still players enjoying the game for its fun my clans in turmoil atm.Quote:

Sure I could have stayed TH8 for a little longer to get some of those things, but honestly if your good at farming and know how to play, it really isn't that bad. Currently working on my lvl 3 x-bow upgrades, have enough for 1 and gonna try to hardcore farm the other 8 mil soon!
The thing most new TH9 players hate is trying to find the "sweet spot" for the loot, because it is a bit different than TH8 sweet spots. After that phase though, its just getting a little determination to finding loot and just raiding!=]
I might not stay forever but definitely til I maxed and a while after that. Ill probably test some bases after I'm maxed and put them on here for people to use.
The word farming doesn't exist for TH9s because of the loot penalty. All there is over there is stress from trying to get all the super expensive goodies and despair from getting raided by mass drags and other tier troops more often.
I'm going to stay TH8 for as long as possible but not forever. Within a month, everything including walls will be maxed so no point staying!
Agreed. As fun as all this farming is right now, it's going to get old too. I'll need something new to keep my interest in this game.Quote:

All the things I dislike about TH8 in comparison to 7 are amplified when going from 8 to 9.Quote:

It isn't as if I'd be missing out on intriguing endgame content.
I am loving th8, a lot more than th7 which some will argue the "best" stage of th there is. But I want to date the Queen so I won't be staying here forever. That's not to say I won't max everything before going up though. The new AD has prolonged my stay, maybe I can even get all my walls to skulls.
This is where im getting to now, you have to upgrade to 9 otherwise what else you going to do when your maxed?!Quote:

I think I might do TH8 for life too:p
^Th7 can get more loot but you only get to store 4 million, waaay low for us farmers.
Do you mind sharing what your sweet spot is? I recently upgraded to a TH9, and underestimated the differences between TH8 farming and TH9 farming. If it were in any way possible, I would swap out the 9 for an 8 in a heartbeat, but sadly, it isn't, so I need to make due.Quote:

Relatively? Specify please.
From what I've gathered, TH9 sweet spot is 1500-1800's and 2200's+
Prior to patch 1500-1700 was a sweet spot but available loot is almost non existent, i've found for me due to the recalculation from 1500-1600. Currently working my way up to see if any sweet spots exist from 1600-1700, overall not impressed with the update.Quote:

Cuz what fun is the game when there is nothing to do with the money you earn??
gg th8s
Yeah with the new WT AND the WT problem fixed, TH9 is no longer superbad
because they are not ready and dont know how to play with th9 :), i smashed a maxed th8 with my farming troops should not hard to kill a maxed th8 and I laught when they try to revenge me lolQuote:

I have been at th8 for what seems like forever, was premature th8, was there at level 40ish, I'm now level 85. I have everything maxed but barracks(8,8,9,10) DE Barracks(3,3) 50 walls, DE troops and rage spell(4) starting upgrade in 4 days and am kind of insanely excited, trust me, when you are close to maxed, you will not want to stay there forever.
Edit: Forgot the new air defence.
So if you're completely maxed, and onl looking forward to another thing for th8 in a month or a few months which will take only one builder for a fair chunk of time you still wouldn't upgrade to th9? If that's true honestly learn to play, there's no point looting th7 if you can't use it. Do remember I said completely maxed, you can't have much de before getting hit by lightning in th9.
I've seen players at TH9 who at first glance seem to be doing it ok, then you look closer and their defences are lower level than mine were at TH7 - Like level 2 WTs, level 7 canons! level 4 mortars etc ... and yet they have 1900+ trophies. Whatever works for you I guess.
Well my plans are to hardcore max TH8. Barracks and collectors included. TH9 seems like a nightmare.
tell me your trophy range and I show you what I can do with lvl 6 troops to mow down you village ....Quote:

also when you get to town hall 9 max everything out what you going to do then you can't level up so there no difference between sitting on th8 for life or sitting on th9 for life both just end up the same way I personally would stay on th8 until th10 out that if it come out
Im about half max TH8. But with every update , I get pushed back. So i dont plan on moving up anytime soon. But I plan to max everything from barracks to collectors and maybe walls
I wouldn't say "4life".
The moment they release a TH10, I'm going to TH9 immediately.
Trust me when I say that it isn't fun sitting around with full storages & maxed defences + walls. :(
Not to mention wasteful.
Trophy chasing really never was for me,
so moving up to TH9 seemed the natural progression in the game.

This little Potato misses easy TH7 loot though... :(
Ya! TH 8 is the best wish it had the archer queen and The lvl 4 DE drill (LOL)
