Fresh th9 from Max th8 (fully maxed), how do I farm with th8 troops?

Been having severe issues with loot finding, basically almost every attack just pays for itself with a few rare collector raids. I use bam and barch, but with the HP increase and barch cost increase I can't farm well.

I am at 1400-1450 cups, next to no collector raids, and the only strong raid I know is gowipe, but that's terrible for farming. I have the queen, upgrading lab, building Tesla, 2 xbows building and last builder on a camp.

Any recommendations on farming strats till I get those op lv6 giants? Really need your help on this, forumers ;P

Every thing is dry after ipdate wait till the frenzy gone
move up to crystal
and when going for long hours make war army(gowipe/gowiwi/loonion)
thats it happy farming

Not sure why so many are having troubles, yes, there are fewer dead bases, but you can still find good 500k+ ones to raid, you just need to use spells to break the base with barch. Im finding good bases using a gibarch healer comp. Im gold 2, and always get snipes so I can log between training.

I have been barching with 2 heal and 1 rage, works fine for th8s but for th9s the queen makes the troops shoot at a Lego or skull and then just get smashed to dust by mortars , not even a heal will save a group of barbarians from 2 simultaneous lv7 mortar shells...

You can always bring a couple lightning to take out pesky mortars.

Just choose the base thats right for your comp, find exposed mortar bases or whatever. Try gibarch also, giants will aggro the mortars and your barch can work the rest.

I farmed Gold II when I went to 9 from a fully maxd 8. Had full storages so my builders went nuts eating the overtime hours :-)

Try this army... It's a cost of about 130 g but if you aim for 200+ elixir loot you'll do fine in gaining the edge.

12 giants
6 wbs
One healer
AQ and BK
9 wizards
6 hogs
2 minions
Rest archers/barbs at 2:1 ratio.

Toss two barbs out to blow up any bombs. Send three giants at a time with a few seconds intervals ( when I dropped a few archers and barbs between giant waves)...open walls for giants with 2 wbs. After giants, drop hogs then healer then wizards. Follow up with minions BK and AQ.

It should take out most of the weaker 9s and any 8.

High elixir cost so aim for 200 elixirs, but you'll gain in DE and gold loot.

I have been barching with TH8 barch ever since I got to TH9 and I have been doing fine. Looting is not really a problem but it gets annoying when you won't get 1-2 mines or pumps out of the 12. You should be fine is all I'm saying.

Go to Gold 1 (1800s).

If you train your army and close, wait for the army and attack, train GiBARCH, Loonion or whatever you know.

If you will boost your barracks and play for one or two hours

Check out clashofclansforecaster.com to know when the loot is good.

Train BARCH or BAM

Upgrade your farming troops.

Farm ON

Also need help with what troops to use.......

At TH8 all my troops were maxed (except healer is l2) and Rage and Healing Spell are l5, Lightning Spell is l4, BK is L10.....

My to go army at th8:

8x Giants l5
10X WBs l5
30 Barbbarians l5
30-40 Archers l5
20 Goblins l5
15-25 Minions L4
2-5 Wiz l5

"""Optional in place of barbs,goblins,minions:

1-5 Hog Riders l4
1-2 Valks l2
1-5 More Wizards l5

CC Troops: Prefer 6x Wiz5+ and 1 Archer, 5x Giants l6, 1 Pekka l3+, or 2 Witches + 1 Archer

Spells: 2 Heal 1 Rage (usually 1 heal others aren't made yet)

BK l10




So this isn't working for th9, I think if have -15 Wizards and more giants to block that will help, this is mainly for Gold and Elixir.......

Also what loot do you guys look for??

At TH8 I wouldn't attack for less than 200k Gold and 200k Elixir if I needed both, 400k minimum.

For th9 I think 250-300k of loot you know you can grab is more realistic, what do you guys thibl?


Need a new army to try out, I boost barracks Kong and spells so np

loot will come back once the update is settled as others have said

I just moved from TH8 to Th9. Just barch in Gold 1. Find dead bases and go.
