Best way to get DE at end Th9?

Best way for DE is to do exactly what you're doing, farm in masters.

Crystal I've always found to be "meh" period. It's like a wannabe medium for people that want a good mix of gold/elix/and DE but it's not really great in any department.

Gold league is best for high lvl wall farming, but is a little sparse on the DE in comparison to Crystal/Masters.

So really as a late TH9 you have two options depending on your priority.

1) If you want lavas, you should be barch/bam'ing in Gold. (inexpensive and fast army train times)

2) If you want DE/royals, you farm in masters with loons. (expensive and long army train times, or heavily costly in gems to be on constant boost).

DE is easier to come by as you go up. (at TH10 you have 3 max drills, and you will be living off league bonuses and higher leagues where DE is more plentiful).

Walls on the otherhand, are more difficult to do if you go up and you fall behind.

I'd probably be dropping down to Gold and doing walls if I were you, then push back up to masters for some last minute royal farming before you go up to TH10.

Gold league isn't entirely bad for DE either (avg is typcally 500-900 DE/base)... but you also are training your army in 1/5th of the time it takes you to take a full army of loons, spells, and royals into every battle for those 3k+ DE Masters bases.

Also guys, please note : my queen is 15, king is 13 in two days, and i have 149 skulls, 7 lavas, rest legos(90 something?) and i plan on having heros at least 20 each, and full legos before hitting th10 :D

EDIT: what spells/ratio for loonion? I pushed to 3400 with loonion 50%, but i feel like it is too weak to push into cores of th10s and max th9s, AND get 50%.... Help?

Long way to go on walls then....so again, I'd be dropping to gold. By the time you have full legos (and especially lavas) you will have your lvl 20 royals.

Maxing lavas are your call, but if you fail to do them at TH9 just know it's even more hard and tedious to do as a 10.

Any loon comp variation should be at least 3 rage. Rages are going to be far more useful hitting Th10's as a heal has no affect on targeting infernos. The heal is for last minute loon survivability once infernos are taken out if you do decide to bring one.

You could also even bring a light for the CC if you want, and forget heals altogether since you're mainly going to be going up against TH10.

You don't need to be sitting at 3400 or greater, low masters is fine for DE farming. If higher, you are probably going to start needing to bring hounds for laloonian....increasing your train times, cost, DE consumption, and gems which will be defeating the purpose of DE farming to begin with.

Low Masters (below 3K) I'd roll with 60 mins, 20 loons, 3 rage/1 heal or light or all rage.

High Masters (3K+) 4 hounds, 26 loons, 3 rage/1 heal or light or all rage

Quad lava pup though obviously isn't recommended as that eats into your DE gain. But it is necessary if you want to break those strong cores or do anything remotely close to above a basic 50% standard loonian raid at 3K+ cups in a league littered with strong 10's.

Best way is to move to TH10 (and use ringus 10).
Point is you wont be attacked so much and if attacked you might defend.
Oh and yes in master league barching.

Thanks alot man, appreciate your opinions

I'm at 45/250 lava walls and lvl26 AQ and lvl25 BK.

For heroes, I farm in C1 with Balloonion (extra gold/elixir all dumped into walls...completed lego walls this way)
For walls, I farm in G1/C3 with Barch/BAM (I did this after reaching lvl25 heroes, extra DE is now dumped into heroes)

As you can see, my AQ is lvl26, so I just dropped down in trophies and started doing wallsrecently.
My AQ is going to lvl27 now from the DE accumulated from farming for walls.

Lately I have been doing the same thing, though my walls are in bad shape my defenses are basically maxed, aside from 1 xbow and 1 tower.

I find that hovering around c3 (1900-2100) can be nice since you will hit a lot of G3 bases but get the C3 league bonus from 50%s. I have contemplated dropping down to lower gold 1-3 though and focusing on my walls, but figured I didn't want to ignore my DE.... tough spot to be in but one that a lot of TH 9s are in.

One other side note is that I like to stay away from loonion since it is so De and Elixir heavy. The advantage of Barch/bam aside from the train time is that without using much Elixir I can easily dump it into walls, with Loonion armies I never had a spare 1mill elixir around.
