    None taken!

    You mean that will lock in any troops, forcing them inwards? See what you mean by that, my logic was that it would act like a shield, but that seems broken indeed

    You wasted so much walls to protect useless building like spells factory, barrack!

    Yes, I currently use gold storages as a distraction, as I'm upgrading walls so the balance is never high. And I use the elixir to upgrade remaining troops to max under th8.

    My Th8 farming base

    Hey, here is my new updated farming base.



    Tried to centralize CC as much as possible. This is what I came up with. Any thoughts please?

Replace that with the lvl 9 cannon outside and you're good to go....
    If you wanna entice enemies to attack from another side then place your barb king at your side that you don't want attacked (tip works for me usually)
    thanks a bunch bro.
    cover it up with what? wall? but im out of wall, lemme figure something out.

    by "drill/mines inside", u mean in front of the drill in north section? ok will try that.
    Thanks.

Those skull walls really do bring home the saying "X marks the spot" ^^ A well coordinated attack and 6-10 wb will open it up, but I wouldn't worry too much. Clearing compartments to get my wbs into the center of a base is still a daily struggle (still having daily hair pulling moments). Your base definitely presents a challenge, so you'd have to have a lot for me to consider going after you^^ But at 1600+ trophies, I'm thinking fewer and fewer people would hesitate. How have your battle logs been? Curious, because if you are getting good results, maybe I will switch
    you're right!I have been getting quite alot of attacks on my base at this trophy level and most of them start from the south..so far some real good farmers managed to get to 160/160 from me...the weak point of this base is obviously the bottom part and also the position of the air defenses,they're too far apart,once the attacker take down one of my air defense they can just deploy dragons to take all my resources...I just swapped 2 of my gold storage at the bottom with the wiz towers and I think it works better now,I'm considering moving 2 builder huts to the bottom to delay attackers with wbs,what do you think?

    I liked the previous position of the wiz towers, since it provided better coverage, but I believe someone suggested switching the wiz towers in a previous post and I thought it was a decent suggestion. I look at stacked wiz towers as I would a two-bishop advantage with an open board; not to be missed or messed with ^^ I like your extra compartments with the builder huts in 'em. Since the wb AI update, I've played around with it myself, even checking out Daddy's stand alone builder hut decoys, but haven't had a ton of success to be honest. Not entirely sure if the benefit is worth the walls ultimately, but I think your base (or wherever it was inspired from..not sure) does a great job of working them in efficiently.

    About the drags, I'm guessing that might have to do with either you being revenged, having a ♥♥♥♥ ton of available resources, or just being too high in terms of trophies. I was bragging about my base not getting attacked and being an unattractive target, but today got stomped on by a premature TH9 I thrashed when he revenged me. 3 lightning spells, AC, BK, CC troops, 3 maxed pekkas, and an assortment of other troops thrown into the mix got two gold storages and my de storage. But hey, what can ya do? ^^ I do think if you upgraded your air def., it would be less inviting to ppl farming with drags. But seriously, who in their right mind farms with drags? O.o
