Would like an alternative to Barch

[Bulldog241]

Hello all. I'm TH8 and I've been using Barch pretty successfully for the past few weeks, but it's been mostly by picking on poorly defended bases I come across or doing collector raids. I routinely have to skip over resource rich bases that are well defended because my army simply doesn't pack enough punch to get past a base that is even moderately well defended.

So basically I am looking for advice on a more powerful army composition that would be able to take on some stronger bases. Here are my stats:

200 army camp space (still upgrading this)
Barracks lvl 9,7,6,6
Dark barracks lvl 1

Research is at:
Barb, archer 5
goblin, giant, wallbreaker 4
balloon, wizard, healer, lightning, heal spell 3
rage, minion 2
everything else at 1

I'm sure I'll need to upgrade some things to get a more effective army, what I'm asking for is what I should be focusing on upgrading. I'll be using Barch until then, but what would a good TH8 army composition be that has the potential to punch through a solid defense? This is mostly for farming btw. Thanks!

Hm.. You would really need to get your minions and balloons up to level 4 and 5 respectively, to do balloonion. Other then that I used a farming army that consisted of 10 giants, 10 WBS, 48 gobs and rest arch

I would upgrade wbs next, then giants, goblins...

Try barbs, archers and like 8wbs. With spells you can raid almost anything. Otherwise, giants, goblins, archers, wbs. Balloons last in anticipation of th9.

You should use BAM then

Barbs, Archers, and Wallbreakers are a NICE combo... Use the WBs to break into layers of walls if you need to

I use 100 archers, 64 goblins, 20 barbarians and 8 wallbreakers it works really well.

Since your barbs and archers are your most upgraded troop i would stick with them. Upgrade giants next. That opens a strong giant based army. Which is much more able to hit stores.

You should use BAM then

If you are going to use BAM upgrade your minions.

I'm a th 8 as well and IMO balloonions are a lot of fun (you need lvl 5 loons). I use them when I farm DE. For farming gold though I prefer using barch/bam.

Barch should be able to get you into storages against town hall 8 and 7. Yes, you might not be able to hit th9s - you'll just have to wait until you go up and get bigger army camps and lvl 6 troops.
If Barch isn't getting you into the heart of a town hall 8, start watching some YouTube vids on attacking with Barch.
