...well you could always start your boost within the first hour of your PBtimer, but if you fail to do that, then yes,you will loose out a few minutes of your boost, every time your PBtimer runs out. This you can only prevent by buying 2hrs worth of VG which will not only add 2hrs to your PBtimer, but also prevent your base from being attacked during that period.
It will also mean, that you can safely log off between raids for the duration of army build time as long as the VG is not used up, this will then doubly prolong your PBtimer, as this timer will be on hold while you're off.

The probably best strategy for the longest possible session would therefor be to boost late into your PBtimer, then buy a VG for 2hrs even later, and start logging off during army build time. Your boost might run out during your VG, but once that is the case, army build time is longer and you can stay off line longer too, allowing for more on-line time after VG ends, because after VG runs out, you will still have time left on your PBtimer.
In short:
Log on and stay on,
then boost,
then buy VG and log off between raids,
then come back on and stay on once Vg is used up until PBtimer runs out
-
then put your TH out and hope for a snipe
come back on for 15 minutes
-
(repeat this proceedure two more times)
-
you're back to 3hrs PBtimer either after three snipes, or if you get a shield (regardless of winning ondefence or loosing).

Have Fun

no fun. i spend 70 gems boosting 4 rax, heros and spells. i use barch, it is ready while i'm browsing and attacking, i don't wait for 4 spells or both heros ready, because heros lv 25 even with boosts take time to recover, so i go with barch, 2 boosts and 1 or 2 or without heros. depends on what is ready. i try to make more raids possible in 2h. so you say to do all those calculations, log out, log in, buy guard, count time...no fun really

Does attacking while in a shield count toward the PBT?

So if the attacker deploys one troop then ends the battle to drop trophies, does the defender still end up with one of those village guards?

I think so, it's like a 15 minute one probably

Actually no. If you don't get a shield, be it at 30% damage done to your village, then no Village Guard either.

You get extra time as "Village Guard" of 15 minutes if you are in Champions 1 and below, 1 hour if you are in Titan 3, 2 hours if in Titan 2 and 3 hours if you are in Titan I or Legend league ONLY after your shield expires.

With this not only they force people to get attacked at least once every 3 hours (or 5 if extended with gems), but they also force people to go higher leagues for the more "Village Guard" time, thus giving something to attack to all those that got up top into Titan leagues. I bet the changes in loot bonuses will also encourage this.

So much for casual playing in whatever league you feel comfortable and don't have to worry about getting steamrolled by people that can afford to gem or boost barracks and be online almost the entire day. :facepalm:

Again, there will be more loot cos those with decent defenses and a decent layout won't get attacked as often would get with a simple TH snipe in order to save the over night resources production, so will most likely be available to be attacked by stronger attackers.

Actually, yes, I believe. I think you get the 15 min. VG after any attack that results in no shield. I could be wrong though.

Do you realize what you say ???

Let's explain:
1. Log in the game
2. Play 3 hours
3. Kick out 6 minutes (first kick-out)

a) th outside: you have a chance to minim 6 th snipes in a row: NO SHIELD
b) th inside: no defense no shield; wake defense no shield; defense 30% and 50% army then shield

4. After 6 minutes back to game for 15 minutes
5. kick out for 6 minutes (second kick-out)
again you have a chance to minim 6 th snipes in a row: NO SHIELD

6. after 6 minutes back to game for 15 minutes
7. kick out for 6 minutes (third kick-out)
again you have a chance to minim 6 th snipes in a row: NO SHIELD

8. after 6 minutes back to game for 3 hours

so you have a chance to lose minim 30 - 40 cups during theese 18 minutes if th outside


Repeat these steps again and again and in one day you go down to 0 cups ....


Resuming: put th inside to keep cups

This update has took a lot of work and I believe it will make the game better. I think more attacking will be encouraged and strong defences will be rewarded. I look forward to the update.
