If you know you'll buy the gems eventually, just buy the builder now, if not, then get to masters/ finish FIN
First of all, edit this post and correct your spelling. Second of all, get the damn builder already. Im surprised you made it all the way to th9 without it.

4 builders is good enough. getting the 5th builder will just make your base weaker because you will upgrade to many defenses at once. not only that your builders will just be sleeping all the time once everything is done. I have 4 builders and that allows for all my builders to stay busy and for me to do walls. if i had a 5th builder id be instead of building walls id be putting the loot into another defense upgrade just to keep the builder busy. Having 4 builders insures my walls will get to max and i wont be having a ton of sleeping builders and i can use my gems for boosts. I dont want to have eveything upgraded and then have a bunch of walls and heroes to upgrade at the end because thats just lame. I also dont want to get all my buildings maxed super quick because then id be waiting months for new updates to come out. at this rate i been going im getting to upgrade all my stuff with no builders sleeping, i get to do walls, and i also get the new update stuff to extend my time at th9 and keep things new and fun. the new mortar and 2 traps that were added gave my builders some short and cheap upgrades they can do while i dump all the rest of the loot into walls. hope we get some more stuff like that in the next update. maybe level 12 collectors :)
I want to have all my walls done before i max all of my buildings while keeping all 4 my workers busy. master strategy to not get bored!
Yep this guy is on the right track. Don't use 5 builders on towers. If you get a 5th only use him for walls or you will be forever premie. Walls matterQuote:

You're asking us to tell you whether 25 dollars is more valuable to you than the time it takes to complete those things? Come on.
I would go through in game achievements. If you want to get it as soon as possible and money is no issue then sure, pay the money! It is certainly easier, I just prefer the challenge of doing it without money! It is just a game after all
It is not hard to get to masters at TH9.
Up to you whether you want to buy the gems or not.
This game is a honey trap, people get the 5th builders before th8 think its great. These people also have bad walls because they have to feed 5 builders their required gold per day. They paid money for the5th builder so having it ilde means they're not getting their money worth. Then they hit max th9 and either sleep their builders for a month to get their walls done or go to th10 with terrible walls and have a worse time catching up.
dont fall for the honeytrap
Money is the root of all evil.
If you've managed without a 5th builder until now, then I probably wouldn't bother.
Save your hard earned money my friend.
Got 5th builder at TH8 (went to visit the masters), during TH9 had them all busy and now I have 203 crappy lego walls (Upgraded to TH10 a week ago).Quote:

Granted I've never let my builders sleep even until now, I still regret the purchase.
Save your 20$ and stick with 4 in my opinion. That and I wish I had let some large stones stay, cause they don't come back either! I have managed to get another Halloween Headstone and don't plan on taking that down for a meezly added 50k elixer. But that's besides the point. :D
How hard core do you play --- I just about keep 3 builders and lab busy, with one for the odd wall - If you are hardcore, and usually have more loot than you need, then you will probably benefit from it ....
I got the gemms for reaching masters, and realised it wasn't worth it for me..... (having the 5thbuilder, that is, I used the gemms for barracks/sf boosting instead, and messed around in masters with heavy troops for a bit...)
Good luck :cool:
good answer.Quote:

I only use 2 but I'm saving for my 3rd. That should be enough.
yeah... that certainly will dampen your progress. 4builder is ideal. the 5th is optional.Quote:

At the start of TH9, I started with all elixir upgrades and dumped gold into walls(before elixir walls). Then started 2 builders on heroes and 3 doing whatever with plenty of gold and elixir for walls. I still have 81 days of lab upgrades left at TH9, not counting stuff I don't play to use, and just started lavas after watching your walls manifesto. Average even 3 lavas a day I should finish around the same time as my lab finishes. Defenses are still premmie, traps barely upgraded and heroes in the low 20s so plenty of builder time left too. I skipped TH8 maybe that helps?
Looking forward to your 5th builder manifesto.
Yes skipping TH8 makes it extremely easy to produce walls at a more natural rate with 5 builders compared to someone who maxed th8.Quote:

The upgrade lengths and the heroes will definately be benefited with the 5th builder. Its your decision of whether $25 has more value than time.
I think you should stay with 4 builders if you are not a hardcore player (play around 3-4 hours a day)
If you play more than that,i suggest you complete the in-game achievements to get the fifth builder
