I'll be starting my th8 to th9 upgrade later today or tomorrow and am just wondering what strategy everyone uses when a new th is reached. I'm maxed out with everything at th8 except walls.
What do you do right after an update?
Start new researches? If so, spells, units, etc?
Get new buildings and upgrade them quickly?
Upgrade Defenses?
Just curious.
EDIT: I have 5 builders.
Thanks.
for a th9 the 1st thing should be to build your xbows (2 builders) , upgrade lab and upgrade spell factory. use your 5th builder for new buildings.
for th10 2 builders on infernols, one on lab, one on spell factory and 1 for new buildings.
Offense first always. If you build your new defense too quickly, in war you will face opponents that you won't be able to very well against, because you have the previous ths offense still. Once you get camps, sf, cc and some troops leveled up, then slowly start adding and upgrading your defense. If you don't war, then start building defense right away, as it will help defend your loot.Quote:

If you have 5 builders...
Above all. And especially as a new th9. Max your gold and elixir and get 400k in your cc. Get minimum 40k de. THESE ARE ESSENTIAL TRUST ME. For reference. You make 500k each every 24 hrs from max mines/collectors.
So once you have done that do these things...
1st builder: cc
2nd builder: spell factory
3rd builder: lab
4th builder: lvl 7 camp
5th builder: AQ then new traps then all new walls to lvl 5 then all new buildings.
After this immediately start farming elixir and elixir alone. You need a staggering amount of elixir soon. DO NOT STOP FARMING ELIXIR UNTIL CAMPS AND GIBARCH IS MAXED. That alone costs about 30 mil elixir... you will get gold and de as byproducts. Drop xbows when you can but not a huge priority. Lvl 1 are puny. Upgrade queen to lvl 5 asap.
Hope this helps :)
My plan: Switch over to my TH8 alt and ride shields on TH9 main. XD
Well, maybe I'll raid a few times with it to upgrade AQ and keep lab going.
Thankfully the collector boost event landed at just the right time, so that also helps. ;)
Priorities are different depending on how you play the game.
For instance, one previous poster had CC upgrade as first priority, while I wouldn't bother until much later.
For me, highest priority is army camps. one builder should be on those constantly until all upgraded.
2nd - lab (and as soon as that is done, start upgrading troops - again order depnds on your priorities)
3rd - Spell bowl
4th - AQ and new walls (instant, so doesn't tie up builder)
4th & 5th, new defence buildings (i.e. 4th tesla, 6th AT, 4th AD etc, plus the 2 XBows - though you may want to delay the XBows a bit if you war most of the time). New storages will be useful to do pretty quickly too.
Then I would keep at least 2 defences upgrading all the time until all the new ones are at max TH8 level. Probably 3 builders on this once spell bowl and lab are done.
But all the above are my priorities. Yours may be different.
it depends on which are your priorities. If your priority is to participate in war, at th 9, first get your queen (no time involved "only" 40k DE), your lab and spell factory (if you participate in war, make sure your spell factory is fully loaded for at least one succesful attack:) ), clan castle and then some defense buildings (better wait till after the start of war with these defense buildings, so they won't add to the determination of the enemy (little profit, but still, it can make a difference).
I moved to TH 9 with full storages so started both xbows and got the AQ the very next second my upgrade finished. Started lab upgrade with elixir and researched my barch first.. built new defenses, walls.. upgraded army camps/SF and all defenses to max TH 8 levels then started upgrading splash defenses, mortars/WT, then AT and cannons.
Offense > Collectors > Defense, always.
Dump loot into walls and heroes, that way you'll never need defenses
Wonder where the decimal-clans are with their replies ?
Depends on the path you want to go... 9.0, or 8.5, 8.9, 8.1 :smirk:
