If he's not attacking anyone then he won't get any revenge attacks; most of the attacks on me are revenge attacks. Also since he's only using collectors, he's not going to have that many resources, so if his base comes up in a search it'd probably get skipped.Quote:

one other thought. There will come a day when you will eventually have to raid (or quit). While everyone else has gotten much practice in raiding and finding out what combinations of troops they like to raid with, you will be a total noob at it. This puts you at a pretty big disadvantage I would think.
Quit CoC bro, consider playing Hay Day instead.
Here are my two cents on why i think your strategy is not such a good idea
Firstly some math, mines collectors can be upgraded to lv11 which is unlocked at th7 and u can build six each. Each has a production rate of 3000 per hour and a capacity of 150k so it would take around two days approx to get 150x6=900k. Seems okay if say you wanna upgrade the th to 8 which requires 2mil so u get all the resources in say about a week. Congrats, this i believe is the max extent where i believe u will use this strategy because after this u may have to wait weeks to upgrade just ur th forget the defences and walls !! I don't think so. On the other hand if you raid... An average raid at th7 gets at least 200k each. Now mostly it depends on different troop compositions but i use a standard arch gob which is fast to make and cheap - it takes around 25 min to train assuming 200 troop capacity and 4 barracks so in a couple of hours i have roughly the same amount of resources it took you two days to get. And now lets say somebody steam rolls me, he will not get all my resources just a percentage of it and i get a shield. So attacking is effective and efficient and it NOT boring
Secondly and this is just my personal opinion though any one i have ever talked to in regard to this game pretty much think along the same line, multiplayer attacking is extremely enjoyable. I downloaded this game last summer but i got bored of it because i never explored the multiplayer aspects of the game- i didn't even rebuild the clan castle and i only ever attacked in single player missions. Later when i rediscovered the game, i found a god clan with some great guys in it and you simply can not outdo the thrill of raiding 500k+ from a player whose a couple th levels ahead of you. I have been hooked ever since
Finally, if you are not a gemmer then multiplayer achievements get you a lot of gems especially the 1250 trophies one where you get 450 gems. Use these to get a third builder before you hit th7 otherwise again things are pretty slow.
All that said its just a game you should try to enjoy it any way you can. I don't believe you could continue this for much longer without ditching the game, but if you do ... Well i commend your patience and perseverance. Cheers !!!

Interesting strategy, but have you ever considered your clan when using this method? I'm sure it brings them down:p
so slow. most people raid .5-1 million gold an hour. being attacked means 30k-200k loss depending on level. silly to not attack
Can you show us your achievements to prove you have not attacked, especially the gold stolen one.
Ya don't get it, do you. When you get to the higher TH's you MUST raid. Beleive me, I've used that method before, and it was not helpful. It took forever to get the required resources, and was TERRIBLY boring. Attacking bases reward you with not only exponential amounts of resources, but entertainment. It would have taken forever to get my hidden teslas, if I hadn't raided.Quote:

Try to fully max your teslas just by using Gold Mines.
I've noticed most of your walls are only level 4. While it is possible to upgrade all of your walls at that stage using only collectors, it will become almost impossible to upgrade even ONE wall later on in the game with that strategy. At level 7 ONE wall costs 500k to upgrade. Even having level 11 collectors yields ONE wall a day, and that's not even taking into account all the other things you have to pay for. May I also ask why you upgrade your troops and keep a full level 3 army when you don't want to 'waste' elixir training troops? I believe you are a very ignorant person who doesn't deserve to play COC and be in the forums. Like someone's already said, get off Clash of Clans and go play Hay Day. Full stop. Goodbye. Go.
