I tAke lightning spells to zap only for TH trappers. I never use spells when just farming though. Kinda defeatsbthe purpose of farming.
when I take my cheap fast BAM,Barch,BAG armies (and any of the Giant variants of those compos..)
TH8. 1 Rage 2 Heal, most typically. (or 1 Thor, 1 Rage, 1 Heal)
TH9. 2 Rage 2 Heal, (or 1 Thor 1 Rage 2 Heal)
TH10. 2 Rage 2 Heal 1 Thor.
I'm in that camp with the others who rarely use spells when farming. (don't need a spell to farm some collectors) However, if a spell will net me a more positive gain on better protected storage runs, I will opt for Heal first; as its cheaper to make and faster to build than Rage.. which in the end is more 'farm friendly'. But, if I know the turrets will one shot my troops then Ill rage on those storages for greater success potential.
obviously it will reduce your net gain if you spam a spell every raid (if you boost SF you can typically do this) but if you do more than collector farm, then surely you must be using some spells.. if the cost of the spell can be recouped in the raid gain, then why the heck not? not every drop of loot is in the collectors; well at least not for how I raid.
I use lightning to hit de storages (and I'm hated for it:cool:)
I use Barch so tend to use lightning when needed but i try not to use any spells.
I make sure I don't create any spells so I don't get tempted. If you use even one Lv4/5 spell you have lost at least 20-25% of your profit...That normally means you need to take down all storage to make any decent moolah and if your farming decent bases that's unlikely with barching.
It's very easy to see that 2nd star within reach with an easy rage drop and next thing you know you have 5 trophies and a loss of 30K pink.
hahhaha its funny how alot of the guys use lightning :) DE Farming? haahah joke.
i always have 2 heal spell and 2 rage spell. normally i only use a rage spell when attacking but the occasional "storages in the core" i have to use heal spell.
Keep wizards in cc and when necessary (need that extra percent/storage) drop cc in a healing spell. Wizards can take out several buildings before dying. Better than lightning for the purpose of getting some extra percent imo.
That's how I roll. :cool:
EDIT: I'm at th9 now. At th7/early th8 i used lightning to get that extra percent. Oh, and i BARCH/BAM
I'm at TH7 and I use 3 lightning spell. I use lightning on those pesky mortars. Sometimes I do DE zap when DE is high.
I use barch for farming.
