Gold 2 Attack strategy??

[15Conor]

So I've just gotten Into gold league 2, and raids have gotten a little harder for me, So I need a new attack strategy. Right now, I use barch, level 5 archers and barbarians, but Its not working well for me anymore.

Please share what attack strategy you use in Gold 2, or any that could be helpful for me, Something with a short amount of training time, nothing with like 3 hours.

Thankyou

What do you mean barch isn't working for you anymore? I use it pretty successfully at Gold II. Just be patient when looking for a base to attack (collector bases are always out there).

One member of my clan (a TH9) turned me on to using pure archers, which he does at TH9. Just ring the base with archers by dragging your finger in a slow circle and you should hit 50% on the right bases. If it makes sense, drop your King and/or CC troops to grab lightly protected DE or storages.

The nice thing about both strategies is it takes no thought to train armies, which are cheap and fast. You don't need to find bases with 200k of each resource to profit.

When I was doing some higher league farming at TH8 I used a different attack strategy to get into the center of bases, looking for storages and dark elixir. I used 16 wizards, 8 wall breakers, 88 barbarians, 12 archers, and 4 giants. I dropped barbs as distractions, then wall breakers and giants, and then a wall of wizards behind them to do the damage. Hope this helped

how long (estimate) does this take to train all the troops?

BARCH works fine in gold 2, just don't expect to break into cores or gain many trophies. It's simply the most quick and easy to train, as well as profitable.

For basic kill everything army comps at TH8…. well, there's two I primarily use: ( All troops/ spells, are max for TH8.)

10 giants
12 wiz
9 breakers
Barb/arch core ( I use around 60 archers, rest barbs or any mix of the two depending)
2 heals
1 rage

Try not to use all the spells if you don't have to as it will cut your training time by quite a bit. Otherwise it's about an hour and a half or more for full army/spells

…and my other one (depending on your hog lvl/dark elixir situation)

15-17 hogs
10 giants
4-5 breakers
around 50 archers or barbs
2 heals
1 rage

This one's quicker to train, but you'll likely need to use all spells (heals especially to keep hogs alive). They both even out around an hour and a half or so due to spell cook times.

Both of those 100% or nearly 100% pretty much any base I've come across in gold 2, aside from near max TH9's/10's that are lingering in gold 2.

For fast farming, nothing beats BARCH.

I sit between 1700-1800 trophy this is what i use for non stop 250k of each raids, i usually next between 25-50 times sometimes more or less.

This strategy is about getting loot and sneeking a 50% win with a 200 unit army


1 Heal spell
18 giants
12 wall breakers
4 wizards
Rest combination of Archers and Gobs...bring a few barbs if you like to partner with BK rage.

30 min build time.

With archer picking and a concentrated main giant and wiz attack you should almost always get 50%.....you just need to next until full collectors or some one is nice enough to vault all there stuff....this build does both nicely.

i can post my complete battle log if you would like to see

A TH3 made it to champions league with barbs and Archers.... so it's not impossible. I plan on Barching to Crystal for DE raids.

Not impossible, but not really probable or advised. One, he would have to get there almost entirely on TH snipes which becomes increasingly harder to do as your league increases. Two, he'd have to be online all the time, probably 12+ hrs a day to avoid being decimated and losing a ♥♥♥♥ load of trophies as anything over silver 3 would decimate a TH3 (probably even a bronze).

True though that Crystal is better for DE raids….but I really wouldn't recommend hanging there as a TH8 either, unless you're near maxed in both base/troops. Nothing beats Gold 2 for gold/elix IMO as a TH8.

BARCH'ing in Crystal isn't really that advised either. Been there done that. Be prepared to spend 100K+ gold searching for bases you can hopefully hit pumps on or full DE drills. You also won't be in crystal long BARCH'ing as you'll probably lose more trophies than you'll gain. Lot's of TH9's/10's are there, and even with proper max lvl 5 armies it's not really easy to farm.

[Radiating]

Barch should be fine up to mid-gold 1, farm or push, where you should switch to a trophy army.

[15Conor]

Barch for me is okay, but I want just more then 1 star. I started using around 16 wizards, 10 giants, a few wallbreakers and the rest barbs and it works very well!
