Th8 to TH9 in 2 days - Need suggestions

http://cs625216.vk.me/v625216241/16bf9/X9uYRYdANhU.jpg

So, I finally maxed out and 2 days away from TH9. As you can see I didn't max out those bombs, which I think are too expensive at 2.5 million each from level 3 to level 5. King is also maxed.

I am planing to start building the X bows as soon as I reach Th9 and upgrade Lab, Archer Queen and a Army Camps.
1) Is it recommended to go for the two X bows at once or build a New Wizard and Archer Towers? I know raiding will be hard because of the loot penalty and initial weak troops to get to the storages. This is why I want to build the Xbows.
2) Which troop should I upgrade first. I Barch a lot with giants and WBs. Should I go for giants as level 6 giants are OP?
3) Do Th10s stomp into Th9s? Which is the best and safest trophy league to farm as a Th9?

1) I'd say both xbows because they're available for clan war as soon as you buy them :) the other buildings can wait and they require more time comparing it vs. what gives a lvl 1xbox
2) Id say Archers - Barbs - Giants. First things first I'm the realest :P
3) Ofc. But that only happens at higher leagues. I'd recommend you to stay there in gold III or silver I for a while. Then push a little for the DE :D Edit: Your gold storages are too close. I would attack you through the left side and smash those 3 storages plus a TH 9 with his queen would probably get the DE, but don't worry it's just temporary. Spread them more like a triangle, move one storage to the right

Thank you so muchmuch :) Yes, I do get hit a lot from the left . This is just a temparory setup to protect DE. I put my Eloxir storages outside as it was overflowing and thought most people would leave after getting the Elixir. It really worked. Most of the th9s didn't bother getting towards gold or DE :D

Prepped the same as you. With five builders I went
1) xbow
2) xbow
3) SF( brew 3 spells prior to upgrade)
4) Lab
5) new walls (can't remember what level though), new defenses , storages, then raided with the AQ for a bit. Before logging off put her down for lvl2 upgrade.

I chose barbs first in the lab. Cheapest upgrade plus they provide a little better tanking for the archers. I just don't see the wow factor in lvl6 archers. 6m cost for a couple dps/hp increase? I believe they may survive a higher level mortar hit, but man it just don't look good on paper. Anyway, I have giants in the oven now and will probably go balloons next.

I slowly climbed up into crystal III. The league bonus almost covers your barch plus there's plenty of TH8s in G1 you'll still prey on. Loot penalty is minimal and honestly haven't been affected by it. You may want to watch the nexting costs now since we're spending 750 a click. I'm for one that likes to keep 1m in the bank for a rainy day.

Get the queen quickly. she helps out so much. upgrade barch and giants first as well. get the newest wizard tower up to level 6 ASAP otherwise you have a weak side. Then upgrade mortars, those are pretty cheap and are a big help

aarrgggggg

I suggest archer queen asap, lab and then lvl 6 giants asap, both xbows asap, and then catch up all the new things u get like the additional cannon and archer tower........ work on your xbows to level 3 as much as you can as they are the most expensive and time consuming defensive upgrades at th9. Another top priority should be maxing both dark elixir drills to level 6 asap as you will have MANY dark elixir upgrades at town hall 9, archer queen, troops etc and those drills help huge.....2 maxed de drills give 4800 de per day. I always like to do the most expensive upgrades first to get them out of the way, and then work my way towards the cheapest ones.

One very important factor to remember at town hall 9 is to almost always have one builder designated to heros.....you should basiclly have one builder working on heros at all times, the goal would be level 20 or higher heros before moving to town hall 10.

Level 9 is my favorite town hall level so far despite the very expensive and time consuming upgrades, this is when your troops get really good and your heros can steamroll peoples bases.

Archer queen is a real game changer
Enjoy

You should be alright. Bombs are a 1.1 million to upgrade from level 3 to 5, instead of 2.5 million. It's not a big deal to not upgrade them, though.

I chose barbs first in the lab.

That's pretty much what I did on day 1.

There are several "TH9 upgrade progression" posts that google will find for you, they're all variants on the theme. Get the lab and spells up, get the new xbows, get the cheap instant new stuff, then put a builder on each class of thing and grind it along. Like every level splash and range first on def buildings. Everything takes forever. The AD7 looks impressive but honestly AD6 is pretty good, so no real rush getting all those done.

One powerful thing you get is 20 more troops - upgrade camps.
Another is another DE drill, and DE drills to 6 is nearly 5K de/day for doing nothing - do those. And max the DE store to annoy zappers...

There are so many upgrades. So many. But before you know it, you'll be wrapping up the last building (I started my last one yesterday... go me!)

Just grind it out. It's gonna suck for a couple weeks until your troops get better and your AQ is to 5 and you have full army camps. But after that it's pretty smooth sailing. Oh, wars suck for a while too :) Gol4/Witch2/Hound2... those help but are a ways off...

LAB
SPELL FACTORY
CAMP
XBOW #1
AQ to lvl2/3/4 as DE is gathered.

(5builders)

I then gemmed the spell factory upgrade and started another camp.
The Next builders were set aside for new walls and defense after offense was kick started.

This is my opinion only, however, offense > defense

Once the lab upgrade was completed, I started Giants to Lvl6.

Good luck and clash on!

Thanks for all the insight. You guys really rock for giving such in depth suggestions.
Achers to level 5 asap is my first preference. And X bows too. But I am quite stuck between Army Camps or defences. Which one should be the first preference?

Surprising enough I was able to get akk this DE in SIlver 1 to Gold 3. I pushed to crystal back in th7 for fun. In Th8 I always farmed at Silver 1 and only recently I started finding nice DE loot there. I think I got somewhere around 120k in a span of 15 days. After that I stopped raiding much. I found lot of inactive Th9 and rare Th10 bases with 2000+ DE

1- one builder for Queen to lvl5
2- one builder for 2 xbows (IMO 2 builder will slow your offensive progress)
3- one builder for camps
4- one builder for LAB
5- one builder for SF

You should push to crystal 3 and stay in 1900 - 2000 range.
Higher leagues is not just for 100DE bonus but there you can find many rich TH7 and TH8 and regularly you will find TH9 and TH10 with full DE drills and/or expose DE storage.

I enter to TH8 15 days ago and could upgrade my BK non stop (Now upgrading to lvl9)
Just you need to next a lot (50 in average) so you should sacrifice gold for DE. (35K gold bonus will cover nexting)

I am in the same situation, I got 1 day 5 hours till I reach TH9, I'm fully maxed there is nothing at all to upgrade.

I was thinking about the 2 xbows first, and I also thought that lvl6 giants for a first lab upgrade is the good deal here, but I found this on youtube, he is so talented and successful guy.
