Unless you're consistently pulling 6* on equal ranked bases in wars while giving up less than 3*, you should stay where you are.

You're definitely going to need max golems witches and preferably pekkas as well as 20/20+ heroes at th10 in order to consistently compete, might as well get all that done at th9. Definitely get walls to Legos too, they save my ♥♥♥ in lots of wars, and lavas are even better.

Are you really consistently pulling 6 stars on equally ranked bases in war? I'm a fully maxed TH9 other than lava walls I have about 50 done. There is no way I consistently get 3 stars on similar bases and I almost never get 3 starred.

I consistently pull 5* on max defense th9s, yes. The reason I can 3* them and they can't return the favor is because I have maxed troops, better walls, and better heroes. If you can't 3* an equal base once per war, you should stay where you are.

Once you get maxed troops and 35+ combined hero levels, 3*s come quite often and you will never give up 3* unless a th10 is attacking down with full spells heroes and maxed troops. I have been 3*ed once and it was by a th10 with maxed heroes troops and spells, and my walls have a LOT to do with that.

If you can't consistently pull 60%+ 2* now vs weak to mid th10s, you're gonna be in even more trouble when your base counts as a th10 and gives your clan harder matchups.

I don't understand. On the one hand you are talking about getting 3 stars on bases where you have better troops and heroes and walls and on the other hand you are talking about getting 3 stars on an equal base. Which is it? I'm not trying to be rude, but instead trying to understand. Obviously, I can get 3 stars on bases that are weaker than mine. I'm asking about 3 stars on equal bases, which is what I thought you said. If you instead are talking about how you have maxed TH10 troops and bases and level 35 heroes and you use that to 3 star a TH9, well that is different.

I am a th9 currently. My base strength consistently makes my equal rank on the opposing clan a weak th10. If it is a close war, i attack the th 10 for a 2* then i attack a top th9 for 3*. If the war isn't close and I don't need to attack a th10, i go for two 3* attacks on th9s.

In my last war, I pulled a 3* on a townhall 9 with maxed defenses and skull walls, then got a 2* on a similar base because I scouted it really poorly. The war before that, I attacked 2 th9s for a combined 6*. Both of them had close to maxed defenses with purple walls.

If you can't consistently 3* th9s with maxed defenses (and purple/skull/sometimes Lego walls), you should stay at th9.

I said that an OPPONENT that is a th9 has yet to 3* me, most don't even 2*, thanks to my walls. My only 3* defense loss was to a th10 with Max th10 troops and heroes. Most th10 get either 1* or 50-55% 2* because they have weak troops because they didn't max them out at th9. I usually only get attacked in half of our wars, because people are scared of my walls.

If you go to th10 with anything less than Lego walls, you WILL get 2* by a th9 or 3* by a th10 with some sort of ground attack. If your base is giving up 2* to a lower townhall, you shouldn't be at that townhall. If you're getting 3*ed by equal townhalls, your base needs work. TH9/10 is all about ground raids in most wars. Walls have been a factor in every single war defense I have had, and they pay off.

Edit: I never get matched with Max wall th9s in wars because most people get purple/skull walls then give up and go to th10. If I had to raid a fully maxed th9, im not sure how I would do, but it would be a tough 3*.

My walls are all lego other than about 50 lava. My heroes are 18 and 16. Everything else is maxed. TH9s don't 3 star me. TH9s almost never 2 star me, although a good gowipe rushing to the hall can do it if everything goes well. I easily 3 star weak TH9s. Maxed TH9s other than walls is hard for me to 3 star. Gowipe is a guaranteed 2 star, but often too slow for 3 stars, even with the purple walls. What attack strategy are you using? I agree the walls matter against ground attack. Drags aren't going to defeat my max AD.

(I see I misread your post above. I saw the reference to 35 hero level and didn't read close enough to see you said combined total.)

Gowiwi or Gowipe for 3* usually. 2 heal 2 rage does the trick for me. Definitely stay at th9 to turn those 2*s into 3s. If you're not giving up 3s and you're getting 3s, you're winning your personal matchup. Im at the point where I can feel confident about 3*s on probably 80% of the townhall 9s we go up against, and that number will go up as i gain more experience and get higher heroes. Not going to th10 until I can 3* any th9 base i come across.

i do recommend to upgrade them to walls level 9. but based on what you are now. you are not a great farmer. and suspecting that your gold grab is still below 500m which is pretty low. having full skull walls is not really that bad. given that you are not really a farmer.

you can just stay for a month to upgrade your heroes and have full skulls. then if you gotten bored. you can go to th10.

This advice is useless to anybody not in a constant war clan.

I have about 90 lvl7 walls to upgrade to skulls to go.

Bloon's, Wizards, barbs, minions and drags are all maxed for TH9 and hogs are just about maxed out too, got 5d 18hrs left in the lab till their done. Valks, golems, witches, and hounds are all still lvl1 but I really don't use them. I farm w/ archers and traditionally do the loons, minions, drags combo for war.

King is 2 days away from lvl10 and Queen is lvl 8 and I have enough DE to upgrade her tomorrow after my battles in this war.

Thx in advance.

Not yet.
Upgrade those DE troops, get full skulls, and get your AQ to 10.

Quick update... got skulls completed and just started knocking out lvl9. Got about a week to go and Valk lvl2 will be done.....

Appreciate the advise fellas.
