A TH7/TH8/TH9 Premie Journey ...

[N8n8]

yep... as very early TH9, we have to press more 'next' to find inactives
sometimes they will be very hard to find, but sometimes they will be easy to find.

no need to worry of the next price because it costs gold, we focus and take big profit on elixir first to max out offence asap. gold will add up as we farm elixir and should be more than enough to cover the 'next' cost...

after we have maxed camps and get lv.6 troops then it will easy journey (less 'next')...

Yeah, I am aiming for level 6 troops ATM. Got my barb done first. I am saving in that 10 days for my archer which should go well.

Sharon,

Your argument definitely appears to be logical and your progress is a testament to that. How did your base hold up in Clan Wars throughout your rise to LVL10 TH? My clan participates in 1-2 wars a week and I'm afraid of getting my a$$ kicked in wars if I upgrade to TH9.

Here's my progress thus far for TH8:

Mortars- Maxed
Wizard T- One maxed, One will be finished being maxed on Wednesday, and the last one will be started Monday night
Teslas- One 4, one 3, one 2... all three are being upgraded as I type.
Archer T- All 9 but one
Air Defense- One 5 the other two are 4
Cannons- One 10, the rest are 9

Archers- maxed for this level
Barbs- lvl 4, but I don't use them for farming or war
Wiz's- maxed for this level
Balloons- maxed for this level
wall breakers- lvl4... like barbs I don't use them
dragon- lvl1, will be my next upgrade later today
minions and hogs are both still lvl1

Is loonion better for farming rather than with giants?

Loons, very strong units to farm decent th8/th9 base that usually have more DE.
BARCH, best for farming inactive that have Gold
Giants for balanced farming

same with what I did...
I get barbs first and then archers

my base holds up very well, I've joined about 30x wars... about half when I'm a TH9, about half when I'm TH10
most of the times (about 20x), I defended / not touched
about 5x, they got 1 star
about 5x, they managed to get 2 stars with full lv.4 dragons raid / gowiwi.

I never been 3 starred except on normal map where I upgrade 3-4 def, both heroes are down, cc/traps also unarmed.

what troops you're using and planning to use on th9, that's the troops you should max before making a jump to th9.
I would recommend to max at least rage spells too

Hey sharon, I saw and always knew the level 6 giants get a huge boost. I rarely use giants as I use barch. But how would you use them? I always got hit with them at th8 so any tips to use them when I get them?

[Defiant]

post your th9 base design!!!

[JoePanther2001]

Sorry for leaving that out... I've maxed out lightning and healer. For farming I knock out mines, collectors, and drills with archers and for wars I use balloons, dragons, and wizards. Will knock out last raged upgrade after the dragon is done.

yep, they got very huge boost like loons... lv.5 and lv.6 giants is totally different
I never use giants before, I barch from tutorial until first month of TH9. but It changed when I got lv.6 Giants, they're excellent to break into any TH8. Only well placed spring traps can stop them.

I just trade barbs and some archers in my BARCH with Giants...
I queue 1 barrack for Giants, 1 for barbs, 1 for archers and 1 for wb+archers

post your th9 base design!!!

that's great, so just max your drags then rage...
I would advise to max your Giants and Minions too...

Add some giants lv.6 to your farming troops, you will able to break into more decent base
having stronger minions also good if you use Loons, few minions can be used for cleaning up buildings when dragon is too slow.

yow sir, ive been following your thread. bad news im already maxed out defensively when i saw your thread. good news is i followed it and was able to max all my walls from pink to violet. better news is i was able to do it in total of 5 days..

4th day Progress: 30M+
140walls x 200k = 28M
Town Hall 7 - 8 = 2M
Elixir Storages = 800K
Barb King = 10k DE

On the 5th Day
I maxed all the walls and was able to Upgrade Tesla Tower and buy a second one.. and maxing my 2nd Wiz tower
So a total of 40M i think in 5days
by doing the Barching..
and i gotta give all the credits to u.

All towers are maxed now except for 2nd Tesla and AD's 4/2..

Oh, tomorrow my TH will be finished upgrading

[zeerosales]

I'm excited to get the Lv 5 Barch.

And also, my base right now, do i also have to consider building new Defense Buildings?? I'm more into offense, following your thread, my GG from 28M went up to 82M in just a week..

What should I upgrade?? thank you very much sharon, youre my idol..

Hello, sharon. I just wanted to stop by and say great job! Also, thank you for helping me fix my mistakes. I skipped TH 7 and went straight for 8. Which was a mistake. Once I stumbled upon here I fixed everything. I'm now growing in to a more respectable TH8 and I can't wait to start farming those skull walls. Thanks for spreading the knowledge and hope you the best at TH10.
