So if you are in a warring clan when is the best time to upgrade your heroes?
I am thinking TH8.5 is the best time to get them to level 15? I do not know...

Thats a difficult question.
IMHO it is a fundamental problem in this game that it is almost pointless to war at TH9+ when both heroes are upgrading. It takes a lot away from the fun.
I think the earlier you get it done the better.
My heroes have been upgrading non stop for the last 3 months which for me have meant no wars at all which sucks big time.

I don't think there is such a time lol. I just accepted I have only one hero. One hero down all time.
I'm facing the same problem, I'm a th 9 and I want lvl 30 Heros in a lvl 6 war clan so I've just sadly been sitting out of wars.Currently lvl 14 king and 12 queen, many months of upgrading ahead
That's why the smart rusher never bother maxing at th8. Because want high level heroes as possible while working on defenses. You th8 maxers will usually end up maxed th9 defenses with skull and lego walls and around 15 both heroes while your defenses already maxed.
Either gem some time off them or get used to warring/raiding without them. We war twice a week. I start the upgrade after my last attack and gem whatever time is left before my attack in the next war. Just depends if your clan is serious or not. But I would never war without both heroes, that's just riding your clan.
Without gemming time, you won't hit level 30 heroes for a year easy. I don't see any way of not gemming time, if you want to war.
Just do a th8.5 and keep both heroes upgrading.As a th8.5 you wont need heroes to hit premie th9/max th8.
If you're in a back to back warring clan, its best to keep 1 hero down rather than 2 all the time. Otherwise getting 3 stars might be very difficult.
We don't war with either hero down, so many of us are doing them both at the same time. Just a week off war makes you rusty. In my option supercell would make more gem $ if they let you boost sleeping heroes for a certain amount of gems. 20? 30? 40? Not only will a lot more ppl gem smaller amounts at one time, but I would personally boost barracks more often if I knew all my farming wouldn't keep me out of war for a week.
so 2 heroes down, then no warring, nothing to do that week.
It sucks lol, I've been upgrading heroes non-stop for ages and I haven't warred for so long I can't remember the last time I did. I believe Supercell should change this, and I think the other hundred million clashers out there probably believe the same. Once you have them maxed out you could just do wars until you max out your walls too. I would say to prioritise Heroes over Walls, as they make much of a difference in war. Level 30 heroes with a good attack strategy should crush any TH9, and will make your life so much easier. Also farming gold with max heroes would also be easier, so max them out ASAP both at a time, then you can have fun with them :~~). Good luck!
I usually drop hero's after my second attack and normally I get about 2 days in before I decide to gem or not depending on next opponent
easy..go join farm clan not war clan..so can max ur hero in peace
no best time if u join non stop war lol
You should save enough dark elixir until you can upgrade both heroes at the same time. There will be a slight overlap because of the upgrade cost for heroes that are level 20+. It is unlikely that you will be able to get three-star attacks against comparable bases without both heroes, so it is inefficient to upgrade them separately. While the heroes are being upgraded, you can either opt out of wars or you can use strategies (GoWiWi / LavaLoon) that will get you two stars without the need for heroes.
Not sure what kind of answer you were looking for.
Either gem the time or sit out wars.
I maxed at th8, walls, defences and bk (not all research but the stuff I used) and I think I would have been better off rushing to th9. AQ is the best tool you have to farming and warring, if you want to max your AQ start early and smash as much de as you can. Prioritise your Hero's over defences always. I've been hitting it hard and got both my hero's on the way to 19 as we speak. I make the odd appearance in wars if I can plan it for when one hero is up but I don't take more then a 12 hour break from upgrading them.
I've got alternated the upgrades to 3.5 days apart as well to give me time to farm the de between upgrades. This will become more important soon when the cost of upgrade goes above 100k de ( obviously you can only hold 200k).
So to recap, start ASAP and drop out of wars while your upgrading both hero's at the same time. You won't regret it when your sporting 30/30 hero's. Good luck.
Upgrade as soon as you can get dark elixir and have a free builder. U can easily get 2 star on th9 with 1 hero, which is sufficient most of the time. At TH10, even 1 starring can be difficult without one of the heroes. So, upgrade as much as u can in TH9 itself.
Upgrading heroes isn't a new phenomenon. A good war clan is used to it. Sitting out and not enjoying the game while grinding out upgrades is a great way to burn yourself out. Upgrade them 1 at a time and just attack lower in war.
Warring without heroes has become such a disadvantage recently my clan has imposed a no heroes no war policy and it's working well we are winning a lot more but it sucks that we should have to. Unfortunately as stated previously it's not a new thing so you either sit out, put your clan at a disadvantage or gem. The more people that do the latter the more likely it becomes that warring with heroes while upgrading will never happen. Now seasons are monthly to get the big wars back we do one mandatory all in clan war both heroes required at the start of every season. I'm not saying the way we are doing it is right for everyone but it works for us and I hope it gives you some ideas.
Quickest way to tell you are going to win the war is seeing the other side lets their ppl war with 1 hero sleeping.
supercell designed the game for each th lvl needing the heroes for good attacks. Have seen th8s 2 star dragoning because of not having bk on the attack.
at some point supercell needs to decide that since they designed the game this way, they need to give ppl a boost "wake up" option . I understand them not wanting to let sleeping heroes war for free. But upgrade time is ridiculous & to have that many ppl not playing the game because they have no other option is ludicrous .
Don't bother, Supercell are bound to add use your heroes while they are upgrading. They'll obviously do this because of the amount of people that would LOVE this idea. Just like zapping. If you make enough forum posts about it, Supercell will change their mind (they ruled out zapping) and do it for the greater good!
I war with 1 hero and upgrade 1,warring 24/7 as of right now.We as a clan war to win but we also want progress so we allow people to war with 1 hero down
I do mine as soon as I finish my second war attack.
I spent 5 months keeping them both asleep non-stop and learned to war without them. You won't be as powerful as you are with them, but if you don't take the time to upgrade you will always be weak. I love raiding as a TH9 with both heroes at level 30 and it never would have been possible had I followed the example of most CoC players and neglected them because I wanted to war. It is better to take a short term hit to your power and put them to sleep than to have a weaker army for the long term because you don't upgrade them (or upgrade them much more slowly than you could).
Worst case scenario you have to find a farming clan that wars non-stop to join in the meantime (though this will only be necessary if your current clan chooses to give you a hard time about thinking about the long-term instead of being shortsighted). If that happens, I recommend finding a better clan when your heroes are done as you are probably currently in a clan of people that will be much weaker than they need to be for a very long time because they are not planning long-term.
You can't expect your clan to carry you in war for months, that's kind of selfish. Either opt out, gem the time or join a clan that doesn't care about war.
Unfortunately, this is simply not true.
Just look at the number of people here saying to gem them. Which is what makes SC money, so do you really think it likely they will cut off that supply of money.
I would like to think so, because I have no intention of gemming them, but they certainly aren't "bound to" :( .
I've solved this problem for myself by running multiple accounts. When I've got enough dark to put both heroes down, bye bye to that base see you next week. I keep the raiding workload reasonable by following a th8.5 plan on all but the main account, skipping a ton of defensive/offensive upgrades, farming with lazy loons in low masters without boosting.
I'd say either keep one hero up at all times OR just war without heroes. See if your clan will accommodate you by letting you change your targets. A lot of my battles I don't need heroes but I deploy them at the end just to speed up the clean up.
I used to upgrade both heroes at the same time and then war the entire next week.
i'd rather play 50% of the wars full strength than 100% with a handicap...
Create a no war clan with ur members pushing heroes however keep warring in that clan. Just dont attack with DE troops. Dragloon gibarch giant healer giwiz whatever..
Have top half of you be TH9s and bottom half be TH7 or below. Ensure your TH9s can 3 star bottom half n 2 star upper half. Not evading tough wars but you guys have no heroes thats already tough. The mission now is to keep getting DE every way possible and winning clan wars this way helps a tonne apart from farming.
