Tips for farming in Masters?

Hey guys. I'm a near maxed th9 that just worked up to masters to start reeling in some de for hero upgrades. My farming army at the moment is 24 balloons, 50 minions, and I generally use 2 rage spells. This isn't too bad, but the train time is a bit long, i don't really like blowing 2 spells each raid, and i don't really like using 500 de per raid when that's what I'm trying to save for. So if you guys have a more efficient army comp or really just any tips in general I would really appreciate it. Thanks guys!

I do a bit of sniping with my heroes as a part of farming. I find the additional easy 500 DE at no DE/elixir cost and no additional build time quite convenient and efficient.

I used barcher with 2-4 valkyries along with archer queen.

Usually i only need 1 healing spell and able to get 50%. However, it is not doable without archerqueen and healing spell and one single mistake might cause 49% star and screw your day. I now move to crystal 1-2 for easier farm

I use 22 loons, 55 minions, and generally 1-2 rage. Don't be afraid to next till you get a base that you can 50% and get at least 1500 DE. And it may seem obvious, but always check the DE drill, you could get 2700+ from full ones.

Am sailing on the same boat as you... most of my defenses are done and came to master to farm DE for heroes... i use fewer minions..24 balloons 30 minions and lot of archers and rage spells... it takes a lot of time to train the army and not interesting...

i did some digging on the forums to see what other ppl have to say..obviously there hav been quite a few posts like this... barch, giant/healer/ wiz, balloons are the top3 combos i found but i havent been able to use barch or giants wiz effectively to be honest... infernos just wreck havoc on your troops...

I hate to say this but it looks like the best and easiest way to do DE farming in masters is lightning on the DE... i dont do it myself but this is the easiest way... if you dont want to do it like me then i think balloons and minion is the easiest, you just need to do enough nexting to find the appropriate base... the other option would be to push higher master 1 or champions to get higher league bonus....

how are you cooking loons in a way that youre not getting multiples of 4...

I'm mainly using 144 arch, 84 barb and 6 minions in m3 or m2. As long as you keep the army price down just go for 50% and the loot bonus. Any extra loot you pick up in the raid is a bonus. Elxior growth is still fairly slow, gold great as you dont have to next too much to find a 1 starable base, swimming in de. usually use 4 light and 1 rage, light to pick up the last few % and the rage on the cc if I deploy it and need the extra.

Often will go loonions 20 and 70 minions just cook rage and heal rarely have to use them all. Bk has been upgrading constantly so most attacks with 1 hero. You have to try and conserve the heros as much as possible and spells. going into a raid without heros, spells or cc is at best an ifiy proposition.

220 camp space would be the answer. Minions would finish cooking first. Interesting idea since you would have 2 balloons ready made for the next attack so the build time would average out at 4 minutes less than a 24 balloon army.

Barch or Bam:cool:

If you practice enough and select the right base it can be easy to maintain trophies in m3
