This give you a new insight to the Th 8.5 that I believe to be a huge benefit to the 8.5 and it really helps defend against people attacking your base for the 3 star!
Base Build for Th 8.5 Farming Base and War Base the Anit 3 star war base!!!!

I thought 8.5 doesn't build xbows?
Bahahaa FAILQuote:

nah this is th9. 8.5 is nothing but traps and offense, 8.75 is everything but x-bows, this is just th9Quote:

Th 9.0 8.5????
That I think this is proving to be the most effective use of the air sweeper by far above TH8. Air based strategies without lure and kill of CC and AQ are doomed from TH9 onwards sweeper or not.Quote:

I think you call your base:Quote:

It works really well.Quote:

Yeah you didn't do it right. At this point definitely build the 4th AD at least. You are probably gonna get matched against an early TH9 either way. Your war weight is too high above a TH8 now to do the 8.5 thing. I'd build your new defense and just keep everything at TH8 level except ADs and teslas. You should get easy TH9s.
You're just a bad TH9 with a terrible war weight to effectiveness ratio.
I disagree I see your points and I know u guys think the "War Weight" on my style of base is too high but if u would give it a shot I still am one of the lowers TH9s in the clan it usually soaks up 2-3 attacks for the 2star which is about average. and a higher th9 usually has to attempt to 3 star me. But with the second air sweeper my base pops hounds fast and keeps loons away nicely
It is funny how people hate on the 8.5, 9.5 but it is effective! i promise

Proof is in the pudding
planning to go for the TH8.5 thinking about leaving my cannons at 9 for war weight and get the 4th AD + 2nd Sweeper, anyone experienced how heavy the effect will be? Teslas at 5 now, may get them to 6 before or not?...
edit:
All other defenses maxed.
dont get any defenses other than air sweeper teslas and bombs and traps u cant geet xbows and the war weight isnt huge it u dont get the cannon and ad and wiz tower. i still have yet to touch a defense other than the air sweeper and teslas and bombs. My number in war is if i have 10 th9s my account is number 9. and the number 10 has just gotten his ad the 4th one so it isnt big boostQuote:

The question is if lightly underleveld cannons and maybe a tesla or two can equate the new AD + Sweeper.
Would've tested and compared, but got near TH8.75 or mid 8s around me... I'm the only one with 8.5 possibility at the moment...
Xbows and any other new defenses would work against 8.5 basic idea, so ofc no place for these.
But read about a lot 8.5s working with new tesla OR new AD, so the question about how to include the new Sweeper...
lol didnt see a questions there till now I would finish teslas they destroy pekkas so well so th8s cant 3 star u and th9s that are early into build that still use a weaker gowipe wont be able to 3 star uQuote:

Leaving (5) cannons at level 9 and (3) teslas at level 5 opens some nice possibilites compared to a 'normal' T8.5 from maxed T8...
1: get the 4th AD (level 6) + 4th Tesla (level 5) + 2nd airsweeper
2: get 2 x-bows (level 1! don't upgrade)
3: upgrade 2 mortars OR 2 wiz towers OR 1 each to 7
calculated with new traps, upgrading all air traps and skellies to max, small bombs at level 4, the total base wight is almost the same, may vary about 100 points in all cases. (from about 50.4k (in my case with troops and stuff))
The one interesting point about option 2:
does the matchmaking only include the pure numbers of a X-Bow, or does it also include a 'X-Bow yes/no' thing to balance war wight?
The numbers itself are much higher with maxed T9 splashers and no X-Bows than with T8 splashers and X-Bows at level 3. But a X-Bow makes another change to attacking troops and stuff...
keep in mind, this was pure theory crafting based on spreadsheets linked above.
Honestly it all sounds nice in theory. But when it comes down to it to make it simple.Quote:

If u look at it this way u stay about bottom 1 - 2 th9s and u are able to stop a th9 gowipe and th9 hog attack and thats all that really matters and it buys u time to get troops maxed so u have a fighting chance at th9
Also if a clan has the attack your number. They wont have a max lavaloon attack to take out your base that has 3 ads. so they waste an attack automatically. Also if u spread the walls out far enough and make them travel to get to the ads stack your black air mines 2 on 2 of the ads and that kills 2 hounds right away.Quote:

Just an update to this thread I have had this base for about 2-3 months now and it has only been 3 starred once and we war every day and it usually gets attacks atleast 3 times a war I strongly recommend this base exact set up!!! for war
