Loot more than what you need for the update :)
Change the base defense after watching the replay's that how they used to get into DE storage & change the base according to that :)
After all, try to place cc unlurable & take level5+ wizards which would help you in defense :o !
I can get gold/elixir easy more per raid but about de
its hard
You're gonna get bent over every time honestly. The best solution is just to stay on for longer sessions and break your shields less often. You can do whatever you want with your base but if they want your DE they're gonna get it either way.
Just being honest. :/
I will go full zaps now
dont care about what people will say
th9 really make me mad now gonna loot his base and leave after 39%
What Aronos said. Just play in longer sessions and look for bases with 500 - 2000 DE to loot. Try to loot more DE than what was taken from you.
Good luck!
at least they should be understanding if th8 in high de mean he is up to upgrade something so stop spoil himQuote:

Bringing in 12 giants, 12 WB, rest mix of archers and goblins is better than zapping the DE storage. Using that army composition you can take all of his/her DE rather than take a portion of it. :DQuote:

This is a game so people need to be considerable
Use a farming base if you aren't already, and make sure to have a good base design.Quote:

Just try to make a good farming base and you should be fine, if everything's well upgraded you'll get sniped more often than not.
P.S. If your walls aren't at a high lvl yet, get em to MINIMUM lvl 6 preferably lvl 7+, maxed walls say a lot about your base
I use farming base and do know bad luck just hit me
my de safe almost 1 week so my base is pretty good but
hey just when i almost upgrade my king
the th9 appear
It happened one time a week............as a TH8 expect that :rolleyes:Quote:

This however is ineffective to MAX TH9 and TH10.
This held me back for awhile when I was raided 1.5K DE everytime I break my shield so I played for 3 hours staright while boosting barracks and got my Archer Queen in the process. :DQuote:

But the best strategy to protect your DE would be to push to Crystal League and leave your TH exposed. Lots of low TH trophy pushers will eat up your exposed TH really fast before a higher TH will have a chance to steal your resources. At Cry 3 (around 2100 trophies), 4/5 attacks would be TH sniping for a free 12 hour shield.
I bet the TH7 people that you raid are saying the same thing.Quote:

Just saying, finding a th7 in crystal is like hitting the jackpot. When I do find one they never have above 200 dark elixir.Quote:

As to the loss of DE itself, what would happen if we could protect our DE? How would the TH9 people get DE for the their upgrades?
TH8, 1.5K lootable DE sure kana raid by th9. No matter the layout. The last 10K DE before you reach your target, try to offline as little as possible, and make sure gold and elixir is almost zero.
Imagine site A) 200K gold:250K elixir:1.5K DE, vs another site B) 5K Gold:8K Elixir:2K DE. which one will you raid?
Site A is open to Gold hunter, elixir hunter, DE hunter. Site B only open to DE hunter.
Done 30k de upgrade king to lv 8 now i live in peace
no more pushing and searching de like crazy at lease for 1 week
They have more drill the one who need to raid de the most is th7 next th8 next th9 next th10Quote:

th8 raid th9 n 10 for de too
gold and elix from th7
Some of us will put the "economics" on the shelf, once in a while, and just have fun with the game. It's fun to attack people. :cool:Quote:

Now, it's tempting to work on the walls with Elixir, and I don't think I'm seeing as much Elixir in other bases, on average.
Raid more than you lose.Quote:

Go to Crystal League. DE is abundant, but prepare yourself for the lack of gold and elixir. Gold is so-so, elixir sucks.
I found it equally frustrating and decided to stop my King at 9 instead of going for 40k more DE. I never let my builders sleep through TH8 so it was tricky timing the upgrades with farming DE..
My advise for power farming DE would be to have a sleeping builder ready and don't stop until you get the desired amount. Otherwise, if you don't play like a super geek then you should just be patient with a level 5 king, minion upgrades and lvl 2 hogs until you get to th9 where it's easier to procure, produce and hold onto DE.
Hope that helps because I feel like I enjoyed the same annoyance :D
IDK about ur defence levels.
you will need at L7 walls and well upgraded defences to keep dark elixir safe.
for me and so manyyy people out there Dark Defendum has worked wonders. In a worst case you will loose all your resources but dark elixir will remain untouched. Very rarely and I mean very very rarely will ppl walk away with your dark elixir
it is completely impossible to protect all your DE in every defence, even a maxed out Th10 will loose stuff every once in a while, and the next best thing is Dark Defendum.
one of the guys in our clan has had good success with avernicus's dark desires as well, but for me I remain Dark Defendum loyalist.
The drill production is insignificant compared to what is required for TH9 upgrades. For example, lvl 1 AQ = 40k DE. Clash is like this - big fish feed on the small fish :DQuote:

Since I tend to spend 700-1000k elixir per war, I need to barch to get that. We war twice a week, so basically I am barching barching barching... :rolleyes:
I just flat a th10 to core to steal de but i am losing 36%
got 1k from it
Wait till you are a TH9 to farm DE.
A shield is your best defense. Farm out the TH. go as far as decorations; Torches, Builder Huts, flowers or flags...so the potential sniper will know your TH is not trapped with Tesla, or BigBombs. it will increase snipe-ability.
What I recommend;
Upgrade your core walls, get them to skull as fast as possible. forgetting about WBs... walls significantly slow Royals Gobs and Giants.. but for Royals alone its worth the buff in your core.
place all of your splash in range of the Dark tank, and CC too, maybe even BK.. you will sacrifice some Gold and Elix protection, but you can make that resource up a lot easier than the Dark stuff at TH8.
and as others have said, raid in longer sessions when close to your upgrade. Ideally, your goal is to start the upgrade before you log off... figure out an average per day (losses not withstanding) so you know about how much you need to shoot for in a day of raiding.
if you war a lot, save up some loot in the CC storage, so you can collect and fill the stores a smidge after a depletion from a large upgrade. or you can top off the last few bits of resource in the same manner.
Good Luck.
TH8 sucks in a lot of regards IMO.. but the loot is good for the TH so there is some trade off..
TC, It's quite simple.
Push up to Crystal and prioritize DE protection on your base (since that is your main concern).
Keep a farming layout so you will be often sniped, and spend all excess gold/elix before you log on walls.. Attackers will either snipe you for their quick loot bonus, or hit next.
Main reason being, they are looking for juicy bases. DE is already pretty abundant in crystal so unless you have an absolutely insane amount they will probably just snipe or next you provided you have no gold/elix. They are looking for 200K+ elix/gold 1.5K+ DE bases, not 10K gold/elix and 2K DE. DE is plentiful there as is.
Simply the best way for you to try to farm and hang on to DE as a TH8.
The best solution is to not store too much gold and elixir.
I'm also a TH8 with 54k DE in Gold II. I reached to this amount of DE but only got raided once by a TH9. That's because I limit my gold and elixir to not exceed past 800k.
