Ok so I'm at TH8 itching to hit the upgrade... I still got loons giants wb and golems to upgrade.. (I have goblins and valks and hogs but don't plan on upgrading those yet..) By the time those lab upgrades are done I should have all defnse except air defense and teslas. Once I finish those upgrades can I hit the button.. I want that AQ. IK th7 are dead to me but is loot still good?

Who knows.
Loot varies, some days it good. Other days it isn't. I found I could keep 4 builders busy. To be honest with the current boost its hard to tell what the loot is going to be like afterwards
I'm asking if I need to max everything I guessQuote:

I would certainly max your defenses before upgrading. Do all the DE troops that you use and all the Elixir upgrades. There's no harm in waiting. I encourage all of my TH8's to max out. I rushed to TH9 and regretted it. I mean really rushed! If you want to do your walls to skulls I would try to do them at TH8. If you find yourself getting bored then hit the upgrade button.Quote:

The elixir shortage people were discussing on the forum seems to have reverted to normal and TH8's are now hoarding elixir again so that shouldn't be too much of a problem for you. Also they are collecting DE too... I stuck in gold 2 / 1 for most of my TH9 upgrades. Barching will bring in the elixir and gold quickly.
About DE troops. The upgrades to your drills at TH9 will help and will your newly upgraded troops to bring the DE in for the other upgrades. It's more important to get 40K together to get your AQ the moment you turn TH9.
My brother maxed everything except his walls and said he regretted not doing them when he moved up. But The economy has changed so much over the last few months.
Loot does drop going to TH9 - but how much you will be affected only time will tell.
Go ahead and upgrade to TH 9. I've been TH 9 for a month now and loot isn't a problem. Get them two DE drills maxed asap, then drop down to silver league. Even with the 50% penalty, I've been taking 100k + of each from inactive TH7's down here. Not to mention a ton of preemie TH8 collector raids. You'll be fine.Quote:

I am thankful for rushing because I can do cheap th8 upgrades in between heavy th9 upgrades. I can also complete my legos very quickly by moving up. If you're rushing, you can do skulls and legos at the same time, so that you would not waste elixir. DE is also overflowing at th9
Loot us good at th9 but it varies. Some days its amazing others i have to force not to try to find a raid. I advise maxing all defenses, walls, and lab elixr upgrades before upgrading to th9
TH9 is the best loot in the game. With AQ you can smash through any TH8 with ease.
Don't worry about it and hit that upgrade!
MAX EVEYTHING dont listen to these this is not boom beech there are penalties for rushing as soon as you move up to th9 you are fair game to th10 wrecking you because they have everything maxxed and your rockin out with your premie th 9Quote:

The question of should you upgrade or not, does not depend on the forums opinion, however it begins with asking yourself if you think you're ready
