List in order of things to upgrade

I am going to be in TH 8, what should I upgrade first, last, and ect

I am in the same boat as you are, I am upgrading my town hall to level 8. Since I have 4 builders, I plan on using one builder for the dark elixir drill, one builder on the Laboratory, and 2 builders on the new buildings. Once all the new building's levels are equal that of my old buildings I am going to save 1 builder for my walls. Then I will set my priorities to splash damage, then air defenses, then cannons, then archer towers.

Is it okay if I get lvl 5 archer first?

[STLCardinalFan22]

You really need those drill working fast! I would save one of your builders just for your drill and have another working on your lab upgrading

Alright! Jeez i really like the fourms, so many helperful people

I honestly think the advice you have been given is not very good. You only get one drill and can only get it to 3 so it really isnt a huge priority to upgrade, but you should get it. Defensively (after getting all of your new defense to the level of your old) mortar, wizard tower, archer tower, cannon, air defense. Teslas are really great, but they take forever. They should probably be on the front side of the list, but I personally normally upgrade them last. I do this because of the long upgrade times. I could get 1 tesla up a level (I am talking about higher levels not the first few) or I could use that.builder to upgrade three different things in the same time. Having higher defense scares people away, so I get this up then upgrade my teslas which cant be seen anyway when someone is scouting my base.

I myself am going Th8 in a day and a half, and I'm thinking about doing the lab, the cc, and the new defenses first
