Does my base need any improvements?

Most people laugh at vaults as they are "so easy to break", but from my experience, that is only the case if you really know what you are doing. Low defence levels probably lure people to pick off an "easy" target, but the sheer amount of defences will wreck havock to armies. It's like having many low level xbows :) Yes, the walls go down with only couple of WBs, but you gotta send them in many waves along with enough tanking to stand a chance to breach the last layer. Again, most don't know how to do that. If all forumers know but none of the non-forumers, that's a 0,5% odds of meeting such ;) (I know the number is most likely higher, but just to make a point ;))

It's very premature. Choose another base with AD further inside. Also upgrade.... well.... EVERYTHING! You are a premature TH10, being a premature TH9 is already very bad....

Be honest. You are a high level. If you saw this base in matchmaking and it had a lot of resources, would you not attack it? I know you love the vault design, it it is not viable at all at higher trophy legels.


To OP. again, I can tell you are proud of your design. However, the amount of gold that you have in your storages directly correlates with the quantity and quality of attacks that you receive. The more gold you have, the more high level, experienced farmers that will attack you.

Most people here on the forums who farm don't judge by amount of stars, they judge by resources acquired. Obtaining 10k gold really isn't even marginally close to enough for most high levels. Wait until you acquire over 1m gold, then log off, and check back after 2-4 hours. check the difference in attacks then.

Depends on the army I would be packing. In the current condition, how the defences and walls are, yes, I would attack it if it was carrying 150k or more gold. But that would be regardless of the design. But for an inexperienced attacker, low defences and all eggs in basket is a very "easy" target, but often a recipe for fail. How much do you think such defences would bleed resources, if they were on a cloisterbuild? From my experience, a lot.

And for the vault not viable on higher trophies... That doesn't concern me the least as I'm not in higher trophies nor will I ever be on the design I got. It's not ment for it. Up to 2k it seems to be working just fine anyway. The vault works again perfectly on the really high up, where you care only for trophies. Take a look at almost anyone in top200, they got a variation of the vault. Easy 1*, next to impossible 3*.

I'm not talking about your design, I've seen it before. It requires many wbs to get into the vault, even with
low level walls. However, Even if op had level 9+ walls though, it would only take 9 wallbreakers to reach the core. This is the problem. I can get in there now with 3.

When I talk about higher trophy levels, I am directing it towards the OP, where I mean 1500+, where there is better loot for th9+. I don't mean 2k+.

Gotcha :) WBs sometimes work in mysterious ways so it's not always guaranteed :D Multi layer breach is always bit more tricky as the defence ranges overlap differently. But yea, I agree, with luck, one can get with 3wb through. Another question is, will the units follow there or just roaming around the circle. Skill & luck play a role there.

The way that I would approach this is to first take out the archer towers in each of the corners. This ay, the wallbreakers wouldn't attack those walls whatsoever. Next, Id send in some giants And then wallbreakers to take down the wAlls to breach the center.

The units can roam aroun the circle, if you don't breach the center wall, but if you get to the center though using wallbreakers, the units would go inside there I'm pretty sure. Goblins would be devastating on this base.

If I would breach a base with that level defences, I'd go without WB as the goblins and barbs will gnaw through the walls in seconds. A runaround circle is more effective than it looks, as the units target always the nearest building, which is the one next to it, not the one deeper in.

Yep, it's gonna be bit of a rough ride to get all that working, but I can well understand the reasoning behind the rushed TH :) Most here wouldn't do it, but it's not "wrong" as there is no "right" way either :)

This is exactly right. It's all about what you find fun. And what works for you.

Yes, that is true. I find upgrading to high level defenses and walls fun, while being able to regularly raid high amounts of loot, while others enjoy progressing slowly and being raided for more. It's all about the gameplay style that one wants to experience.
