[Screenshot] Base Designs TH8

[Pingfao]

Had me worried fopr a minute.



There is still some symmetry left. Red is Archer, blue cannon. For my purposes they are both long range single target therefore "the same".

You can see I must have tweaked my "perfect symmetry" to have two of the wizard towers away from their ideal spot. If you include them with the red/blue squares, voila - we have symmetry.

Sarth.

I do see your intended symmetries with the Point-Defenses. However, splash damage symmetry/coverage is much more important, which you seemed to neglected. Essentially, you want to have 2 equilateral triangular configurations, 1 for your Mortars, 1 for your Wizard Towers. For Point-Defenses, you want to have 2 equilateral pentagonal configurations, 1 for your Archer Towers, 1 for your Cannons.

Here's an example of the mentioned symmetries from a modified replica of my pre-patch TH8 design (I can't find a pic of my original):

i went you a PM about this. Fix the junction on SW/SE where the cannons are so one set of WB can't get to to comparments and then wall off either builders huts or teslas next to teh wizard towers so you dont leave it exposed..

Thanks a lot

Haha I have the same problem as well
First world problem.
1200~1400 is awesome for farming, but not good for defensive replays.

I'm going up to 1500, or even 1600 to check them out.

Tell me how it works out for your!

For those waiting for SpikeFood aka Officer Waffle's update on his base, this is his current base:

Thanks Jun. Any suggestions about my base would be great. And I already know you think it doesn't look pretty. :P

Yes, I see what you are saying.



I did move the wizards and replace them with air defences, everything is slightly compromised I guess. Prior to that I had managed to keep everything sort of balanced.

What I don't quite see is why the two triangle pattern is so important. I understand about having defences covering each other but the two advantages I see in my layout are:

1. I have protected my air defences
2. I have rapid fire splash damage (wizards) extending outside the outer walls.

I am trying to build up some loot and get someone to attack. I have been cup dumping all evening, getting back to 1250 ish only to discover there is next to no loot to be had. Better get back up to 1400 and see if I can tempt someone to raid me.

Until I get tested, I won't know if shuffling around the defences is helping.

I suspect the "fully boxed" layout with nearly all lvl7 is putting people off attacking at all. I'd skip a base like that....

I'm in "DTP" with the rainbow emblem.

Here's my current beta design:

Here's my current beta design:

well excuse me for being so bold but man that is ugly!

Just thought of another benefit for my design: it's pretty and keeps the OCD side of me happy. ;D

Junliang & I offered constructive and logical advices, which you don't seem to value and took as negative criticism. I'll just ignore your retaliative evaluation.

Also, maybe try this out since you like pretty things.

Hey all, here is my base.




Please forgive my under leveled walls from the new update

TY for the help had some teething problems.
