Trying to find a decent lvl to farm for Dark Elixir?

While it's easier to farm DE at TH8 (often it comes along with normal raids), it's not very difficult to farm DE at TH7 either as long as you're in the right trophy range. I maxed out my BK at TH7 in a couple of weeks while hanging around 1400-1600 range, but I did have to drop back down to 1100-1300 whenever I needed to farm gold/elixir. One benefit of farming DE at TH7 is that you have loot penalty on your side - you get bonus when you raid TH9 bases for DE, and they won't be able to revenge you for very much at all (50% penalty).

Agreed, active players can get more DE at th7 than th8. But people who can't raid actively can get more DE at th8 mainly because of the drill.

Would 8-10 hrs a day be considered active? ;)
