stop "nexting" so much

[Underrated1]

Noob question incoming, brace yourself.

Is it possible to farm loot off the Masters league loot bonus? I mean, if 100K loot is good for you, then you can get almost that much off of ANY BASE just by getting one star, and if you can get one or two storages that happen to be poorly protected, the raid would be worth even more.

Or are the bases just so strong up there that they're unbeatable outside of spending impractical amounts of elixir or dark elixir?

You can BARCH your way to champions and there are many threads on the topic, so a simple "win" with the loot bonus is possible to do cheaply. However, it's counter to this thread because you have to "next" quite a bit when barching to find a base you can hit successfully.

As for your more traditional attacks such as balloons/minions, hogs and such they cost a good amount of resources and more importantly time. You generally have to burn at least a couple spells and your heroes to get that 1 star.

When I push to masters, I use balloons/minions and it takes approx 43 minutes per attack if I'm boosting my spell factory, heroes, and one barracks.
I haven't tried BARCH higher than Crystal II, so I'm not sure how much nexting you have to do or not, but I'm guessing it's going to reduce the loot bonus substantially.

As the title says, this thread is about "Nexting".

i see alot of "loot is terrible thread".

Most of these threads say they search 50-100 times to find something decent (around 200k)

you just wasted 100k gold (assuming th 10) to find a 200k base.........

i dont see any logic in that, it only makes more sense to search 5-10 times and take the 100-120 k raids.

This way, more loot will start circulating the game becausae 100K gold isnt vanishing into the search button, but rather stays in storages (assuming people dont instantly dump into walls)

SOO... if u didnt get any of that, what im trying to say is if everyone lowers their expectations and stops nexting so much, their WILL eventually be more loot in the game

I agree. I only spend 20k, usually no more than 30k searching for easy collector raids. But then, ... I'm th8. Is that bad, or not? I can only seem to get 3mil gold per day without boosts while doing my daily homework and school routine...

If you're a high level TH10, then you can log out for 30 minutes and farm/live in Masters. Sure, that's an option.
However, if you're a TH9 farming for upgrades or a newbie TH10, that's not a practical strategy in my opinion.
I would say rule number 1 of any "build army/log off/raid when army completes strategy" is you have to stay in a range where you don't get smoked 30 seconds after you log off.

btw, it's whatever floats your boat. There's no question there is good loot up in Masters and sure you don't have to "next" as much. So, I guess technically it's a solution to the OP. ;-)

i win defenses in low masters as a th9 more than i lose

Just out of curiosity do you have lvl 6 barb/arch? I'm a TH9 and mostly farm at 1800-2000 range with BAM and I'd say 8 out of 10 attacks are against TH9/TH10 bases. Sure, you lose the TH8's when you're a TH10 so there will be a loot drop off, but unless you're still rocking TH8 troops I can't imagine it being quite as dire as you say it is.

Now, if you preemied and don't have TH9/10 level troops then yes I can see your point.

personally most of my loot came from kinf of premmie th8 with like 150-250k gold, since i have upgraded to th 10, these have become 75k raids with occasional 100k that i take...

generally when i lonion, i raid every 40 mins with a 20-60 loon minion ratio, either a drag or loons in my cc, most raids i usually get 50-60% and heroes are not ever needed. if they are it will be to get 1-4% wich will maybe damage the hero slightly. i do not see why boosting heroes are necessary. nor do i see why you are boosting 1 barack

The 1 barrack is because my ratio is 28/40 loon/minion. I usually end up using about 3 spells on most attacks, so the boosted spell factory puts me at around 40 minutes as well. I don't "have to" boost heroes, but with the trophy penalty of losing, makes me want to have them for insurance.
If I didn't boost the one barracks and used the same ratio, it would take 56 minutes to build the loons.
