I am currently barching at around 1450 cups, and this range is treating me well for gold and elixir. I also prefer armies that have a fast training time. My troop levels are as follows.

BK-Upgrading to 5
Barbs, Arch, Giants, Wallbreakers, Balloons lvl 5
Goblins, wizards lvl 4
dragons lvl 3
Pekkas upgrading to lvl 2
Minions, healers lvl 2
Hogs lvl 1
Valks being researched
Lightning lvl 5
Heal lvl 4
Rage lvl 4

My mortars and wizard towers are maxed, air def is lvl 5, and my cannons and archer towers are almost maxed (2 more cannon upgrades, 3 more archer tower upgrades). Currently sitting at 3 lvl 3 teslas, and half of my walls are lvl 7, half lvl 6.
Thank you for any advice!! :o

Hey Storm,

I am a fully maxed town hall 8 and I use the Barch so often I made a video about it HERE. I think the thing to keep in mind is that the Barch can be just as effective for getting DE as for the other resources. There are two things that may help. The first is to up your trophy count to between 1700 and 2000. This will allow you to see more layouts with more upgraded DE pumps. The second is only attack places that have full mines and collectors. When these are full, the DE pumps will also be full and in the 1700 to 1900 trophy range, you will see more townhall 9 and 10's and multiple DE pumps. My biggest DE raid using the Barch was 2800 and I didn't have to break a wall and never got near the storage. I hope this was helpful.
