Farming Dark Elixir at TH8
Hi guys,
I am a TH8 right now and I am looking for a good way to farm for Dark Elixir. Most of the time I am barching, but that gives me only 200k/200k (at least) and I consider myself lucky if there's a level 2 drill, full (which gives me 225 DE). Couple of days ago I was lucky finding some TH9 bases with full DE drills (lvl 4-5) and I was able to grab 1,5k each raid (but in total I only found 4-5 raids like that).
Also, when I know I am going te be offline for a couple of hours (going to sleep, work etc.) I train a full dragon army. The next attack I look for a base with 2k DE in the core and I raid it (don't really worry about the base, as my dragons will get to the core where the DE is).
Right now I am farming in Gold 3 (my trophy range is between 1500-1600).
However the things aren't really working out the way I want. I still need to do all my dark elixir upgrades (King is level 10 though), so I am looking for an army that is great for looting DE. All elixir upgrades and building are done (except loon and 1 normal barrack), so I don't worry about the cost of the army. I hope you can help me with some tips for looting DE.
Is there a league where I can find some abonded TH9's with more than 1k DE, or should I push to Masters and just snipe for league bonus? Or does someone have an army comp which is perfect for DE farming?
Thanks in advance!
