Traps: Game changers

Hi All,

Many times during my Clash lifetime, traps were the deciding factor in a successful win or a saddened loss during an attack.

I have also watched many replay's shared by clan mates winning and losing battles due to trap placements dictating the battle. Whether that is giant bombs killing mass wizards, skeleton traps diverting the heroes attention from the Town Hall or watching air bombs diminish a group of minions, I am sure we all have encountered a similar situation.

However, I am guilty of not spending any builder time on upgrading my traps. Nearing a max Town Hall 10 (just cannons left to level 13 as a defensive building), my traps are not upgraded to a high standard.

Giant bombs all level 2
Air bombs all level 2
Seeking air mines all level 1
Skeleton traps all level 1
Bombs all level 3
Spring traps - no level

Question is, do I take a break from defensive buildings and upgrade traps?

What level are your traps? Do you neglect them or are you waiting till all defensive buildings are maxed?

I max as I go along but traps are fairly big priorities for me, mine sre maxed for th9 already. The reason is just what you said, my personal biggest fails have recolved around traps.

The only trap I upgrade as soon as I get a new one is the big bomb, all the traps are nice to have but I don't usually do them until I am upgrading walls.

I upgrade them as I go in no particular order. Sometimes I have a free builder and traps don't take long to upgrade so I just get it done.

Ah I definitely need to start upgrading my traps. Sometimes I feel like I could have defended an attack better if my traps were upgraded. :rolleyes:

These giant bombs have killed off many of my archers and barbs when barching. :(

But I do have a laugh when my base is under attack with GoWiPe... seeing those Wizards blow up is always a nice sight.

Gotta love when the troops all see the bomb activated but they continue to stay on their path to certain doom lol XD

I tend to upgrade mine as I go along. I have found that they are very useful for I want to space things out a bit so that all my builders don't complete at the same time.

Get those spring traps going ASAP !

I have OCD and cannot up a Town Hall level until everything is maxxed to the fullest and my resources are full.... I know I know it's terrible and I'm gonna seek help lol.... Yes, mine are maxxed for my TH level.
