The definition of "Loot" here

Dear all clasher, people around is arguing about the loot issue. Well, some says "i dont know why, but im TH10 and i can find GOOD LOOT" while some says "Im TH9, my loot sux"

Alright guys, lets stop all the debate here.

After asking with my clanmate, people at the global chat, and real life friend, all i can tell is that

1) Some people think that using BARCH and having 20k gold, 80k elixir and 200 DE per raid is considered as GOOD LOOT.
Why? They say their army cost is low, hence profit is still profit. Maybe just 30 - 50 "nexting" and can raid base with 80k elixir.

Well, there is nothing wrong here. The fact is that he is probably trying to farm for 200k elixir and again, spending onto walls(lvl6) and claim themselves "GOOD LOOT". They are not farming for 5mil to upgrade lvl6 DE Drill.

2) Some only farm once every 2 to 4 hours, or farm 3 times in an hour. They may be lucky enough to found abandoned base with 200k gold, 200k elixir and 500 DE in one of their raid, and they claim themselves "SuperCell has fixed the loot issue"

Well, be honest, farmers are people who farm non stop right after anther raid, and farmers might farm up to a few hours. Giving a statement like that just because u found one abandoned base is unfair to everyone.

3) Using GoWiPe to raid a maxed out TH10. There are TH10 players who boost all dark barracks, spell factory and barrack to cook GoWiPe and can easily raid maxed out TH10 base with it.


Many people gonna flame me out of no where but i dont mind. I just wanna share people's thinking here.

My experience is that, loot is still horrible. It is true that the loot was great right after the maintenance. But few hours later, the loot has gone back to normal.

Im sure some of the farmers here would agree with me, otherwise.....

if you are in wrong trophy league then you will never find good loot..i constantly stay in gold 2..i dont have trouble finding 130-150k loot both gold/elixer..i m in TH9

Its a subjective issue and the results change day on day.

I dont measure per raid.. as some will be significantly better than others so I measure per 'sitting' as when I break shield I expect to put at least a couple of hours in.

so a 'good' sitting for me is around 1m per hour each of g/e . (I exceeded this yesterday, and not in the 'golden hour').

The day before however, I dont think I broke a million combined... same trophy range, same troops, so go figure.

its not terrible out there, its just inconsistent IMO.

Im TH9 btw.

It also depends very much on how you raid. Those BArching looking for collectors in abandoned bases seem to be the ones complaining about lack of loot all the time.

Those willing to invest in a more balanced army to attack storages and fight in appropriate leagues for their town hall level do not seem to be having any loot issues.

A lot of the problem is people complaining that they used to be able to BArch at TH 10 in gold leagues, so should be able to now.

The game is moving towards trophies having more value, as such players will need to adjust their play style to follow.

Holy cow,

The admins have been noticed. Youll become a moderator one day for licking good

dvdrw I agree!
I will try to answer your question.

At the moment (I adjusted) good loot for me means:
Being able to choose between villages that have 100k each. (once it was 150k each and much longer ago it was 200k each)

I don't see people with 100k each I can raid with my army.
I am not able choose.

Solution: go up or down in cups does not work
Solution: train an other army does not work, waiting time too long.

So I think I can say my loot is bad. (almost ;-) maxed th10 farming in crystal1)

Loot is okay. I use barch when farming. If you are always looking for collector raid then I'll tell you now, loot will always sucks. I'm always looking for storage raid that has at least 100k loot to cover my army cost and nexting cost and to have a little profit. You should consider collector raids as bonuses. In this way, loot will always be good for you. Don't be too greedy.

I'm TH9

FYI, I'm about to go TH10. I'm still thinking whether to farm like last time or semi-quit. Nowadays, people claims themself lucky when they got 150k elixir raid. Back in those days before "elixir wall" update, i can easily raid base with 250k elixir.

And for army, i hate BARCH and never ever used BARCH in my CoC life. I dont "nexting" for abandoned base. I use giants raid so i wont have any problem to break into the middle of the base for DE.

Believe it or not, I used to farm 6mil elixir everyday if i could spend 5 hours farming.
For now, i call myself lucky if i could get 1mil elixir net profit in 5 hours.

1) Loot is inconsistent and different from before. Yesterday I found three 600k bases (300k+ gold / 300k+ elixir) and many 200k/200k bases (about 8 total) all in two hours of searching. Many days I will not find these 11 in a whole day of farming.

2) What gives a consistent return? Sniping for loot bonus, maintaining low cost army if you are farming for elixir so that you can net positive on more bases (less nexting), and seeing abandoned bases as added bonus return

3) Gold farming: Expect to spend a lot of elixir on higher army cost and spells. Elixir farming: expect to spend a lot of gold on searches.

3) Barch can raid more than just abandoned bases. Using heroes + CC, you can use barch effectively to penetrate plenty of bases. This is situational, and you will not be able to loot/penetrate every base this way like a giant/wiz/gob army could. I have 2 starred probably 10% of my barched bases.

• Look for weakly defended or exposed storages
• Stagger and use your barch efficiently
• The key is to distract defenses with barbs, use arch to take them down
• Use some wb

When raiding for gold: I use giant archer with wb, heroes. CC and spells optional, I only use when I need them to penetrate.

When raiding for elixir: I barch with 4-12 wb, heroes. CC and spells optional, I only use when I really need them. Very reluctant to use spells when I elixir farm, because they increase my elixir cost.

Pro, you are too high in trophy count to do elixir farming very well. You find too many bases that are too strong for barch. The trophy range I told you in game is the best.

Final Note: Loot has changed because the game has changed. When maxing my army camps, it took me 3-5 days to get the 6.75 mil to start an upgrade. Yes it is slower than before, but I can probably get 6.75 mil elixir in 2-4 days now because of the new loot bonus. Hero sniping with c3 loot bonus is amazing for elixir farming.

Many factors affect loot, and how to find and get it.
