Boosting DE Drills.....

[Loki777]

what would you say about boosting barracks? is it better to just purchase the automatic finish?

or is it better to boost the barracks?

ive been gemming troops so im wondering if gemming the barrack instead would save me some.

Boosting barracks is way better in my opinion....


when when I was hunting for gold and elixir I would sometimes boost my barracks.... I was using barbs and archer. I found after one raid was finished when I got back to my base my army camps were full!

40 gems for non stop armies for two hours seems a fair price.



On the flip side now I'm hunting for DE I'm using balloons.... I do use spells quite a bit in my attacks. So boosting my barracks is pointless. Even with boosting my spell factory i never have enough spells by the time my army is done. So the only think I go gem is my spell factory every now and then for 10 gems.


So as the games progressing I'm being forced to play less and spend less gems... I don't really mind spending 500 or so gems a week on this game (that's why I was looking into boosting drills).... But as it stands nothing is worth me spending it on apart from spell factories... but clearing trees and gem boxes usually pay for a spell boost a day.

It make far more sense to boost barracks than to gem completion times.

Boosting barracks is far better. If you insta-gem your army, 10 gems lets you finish about 30 minutes of build time. With boosting you get 8 hours of army building in 2 hours - i.e. 6 hours of extra army build time for the same 10 gems.

I was bored and thought id work a few things out regarding boosting DE drills....

Drill Data
-My my drills earn 100 DE per hour
-I have three drills (so in total they earn me 300 DE per hour)
-It cost 34 gems to boost a drill and double production


DE earned per day by boosting
- for a day of boosting I earn an extra 300DE x 24 hours = An extra 7200 DE per day
- so to boost all three drills per day it costs me 3 x 34 gems = 102 gems

DE earned per week by boosting
7200DE x 7 days = 50,400 DE earned
102 gems x 7 days = 714 Gems


cost of 100,000k DE in store = 3000 Gems
cost of 108,000k DE by boosting for two weeks = 1,428

For 100 gems I can boost 4 barracks and spell factory for 4 hours.

In 4 hours with those on boost it is possible to make 45 to 60k DE in Crystal III.

Just depends if people have the time to play.

I love the fact that my maxed UNBOOSTED collectors per week earn me around


3,500,000 Gold
3,5000,00 Elixir
50,000 DE

Yeah ah best way mate... But keeping heroes on constant updrade in not really worth the time investment you will put into the game daily to achieve this.... Well it's not for me personally.

Thought boosting drills would be the solution but it's not either....


I can earn around 100k DE per week by playing for fun and not farming or grinding. + 50de from drills.


So to be be honest I'm just going to learn to love the fact that my heroes will only be upgraded one at a time and I will always have one free to play with. Doing them both at the same time costs way to much financially OR for me personally will eat up way to much of my free time to make it justifiable.

That's the beauty of gems, people can use them in so many ways to suit their style.

I think by far it's best to boost barracks/spells, then next probably pumps.

I think buying resources has to be the worst exchange for gems. People should try to avoid that if possible.
