Nice guide, but there are a few flaws. You do not need to max collectors /mines to progress and only important/ regularly used troops (these are differ for everyone based on their play style) need to be maxed. Why waste DE on valks and golems if will never use them (I upgraded them but am yet to use them) or lab time on PEKKAs?

Troll post, so you want every one to go gaga over you ?Originally Posted by Gendel
BTW my collectors were lvl 5 until 4 weeks back. now i have reached lvl 7, yipeee
Level 104, TH9, 600+ mil gold grab, Donations: 65k +, Highest Trophies : 2669
Walls: 147 level 9(Legos). AQ 11, BK 12.
you're right. however I found myself upgrading them as I had an open builder but not enough gold for defenses. it gave me enough time to farm while not letting my builders be idle.
that said, I have some friends who leave them at lv1-2 because they think people wont attack them as often... their logic not mine but just felt like throwing that out there
Premature is a matter of opinion, but the basic point is why level up your TH of you aren't going to take some sort of advantage of it. Why go to TH9 for X-bow or TH10 for infernos when you don;t have the other cheaper easier just as effective defenses.
That said if you don't actually do that much defending you mostly attack then as soon as your lab is done with what you need it's time to move up, up, up, and have more fun, fun, fun.
I don't agree on the collectors.
I have to work all day so I can't play for 8 hours.
So why would I upgrade my collectors? For giving loot for other players?
if you can't play all day wouldn't you want something to give you income while youre at work? keep your th outside then a noob will snipe it... then free 12 hrs for your collectors!
I'm not a troll poster, just thought I'd point out how the guide is in my opinion flawed, but do it in a visually clear yet very slightly amusing way.Seems like a well thought out thread, hmmm let me see am I a premie Th9?
5 Things make up a a "Pre-Mature" Base:
- 1 Player level does not accurately portray where the player is at.✅ level 109 seems ok
- EX: Lvl 57 at TH 9
- Walls are not upgraded closely, or to max potential of current townhall.✅ done over half my lego
- EX: Lvl 6 Walls at TH 9
- Troop level is sufficiently lower than current townhall can support.❌ Oh dear
- EX: Lvl 4 Archers at TH 9
- Defenses are not close to what current townhall can support.✅ yup maxed Th8's def
- EX: Lvl 7 Cannons at TH 9
- Collectors are not at highest level for current townhall❌ Opsy thought overflow of elix was enough
- EX: Lvl 6 Collectors (Gold or Elixir) at TH 9
Oh nooooo level 1 valks, hogs and level 9 collectors. I am premie Th9 so will delete and start again, sobs.
Joking aside nice thread but I'm thinking that my definition and your definition of pre-mature are a little out of touch with each other.
All I can say is, sorry if I offended you or anyone else and I ashore you it was unintentional.
I hate to be a kicker,I always long for peace,But the wheel that does the squeaking,Is the one that gets the grease.
I think this is pretty good, but I'd probably question the points above.
I'm not sure low level collectors make you premmie. I did mine, but I don't really see a huge issue with players that don't do them because they keep builders busy on other defs funded purely by the gold from raiding, although those players probably aren't the premmie ones.
I don't think walls are the backbone of the game - I would say defs are more important. In my view the minimum safe wall requirement is so they can't be one-shotted by the wbs from the TH level immediately above your level.
I also don't see the intimidation factor. If I found a base with lvl 11 walls and lvl one defs and sufficient loot I'd attack. A wall is not intimidating, it doesn't hit back. Bases with high level walls generally have high level defences, but it is the base as a whole that should be considered not just the walls. Or are the people that say walls are intimidating just scared of walls? Also, how many people are using mass drag, loonians and hogs these days?
On def upgrades, yes they are important, but I would say attack upgrades, lab/troops/camps/spell factory should be a priority. That said I'm not sure if I will do the lab first at TH10 as there isn't a buff to any troops I use.
Defs and attack upgrades tend to be not too be mutually exclusive though as defs need gold and attack needs elixir, so you can do both. The constraint is mostly builders and the efficiency of farming the resources.

Lol, I don't want to give ANYTHING to other players (except for my clanmates).
My TH is outside, but usually they take the collectors as well when sniping my TH...
I'm upgrading them now though because I want to completely max my TH8.
That collectors give to other players is a myth, even if you work 8 hours a day, as I am sure many do. People who lose their collector loot are just doing it wrong.
You are welcome to play it which ever you fancy, and honestly the only reason you should level anything is for you, the argument that says upgrade your collectors for the good of the community is not going to convince anyone to level up collectors, do it for you or don't do for you. Your call, your life, our fun.
