New to coc and still a hot mess !!!

[Exodious]

From a former PM answering her question since she got some rude comments.

[BigPapiSolis]

for starters douche bag im not talking im texting, i thought this was a forum to ask questions for new players and people give advice on how to improve instead of being rude how about you just skip over and dont respond, and to the other people thank you very much.

In this forum you will get a lot of helpful answers and a lot of not helpful answers. I started out bright eyed and bushy tailed like you as well until posting a couple threads and discovering this myself.

For answers to your question look at J's response.

For now I would edit your post from your computer and add paragraphs and try to reduce the caps spelling. It will just make it easier for forumers to read and to think about an answer instead of sarcastic/rude remarks.

I think people are bashing on her based on the fact the she seems unable to form a simple sentence. It is much easier to help when you know exactly what it is someone needs help with. I made it halfway through the wall of text before I gave up.

All it took for me was the attention seeking avatar...

Here's what I would place a priority on based on your current description of your base...

1) clan castle: max at th8 holds 25 but just as important can hold 700k e and g of war loot. This upgrade will improve your war effort both offense and defense and your potential war win reward.

2) Air defense: I would commit a single worker to upgrading these one at a time until level 5 or even level 6. You don't want more than one worker because you still want two active air defense to protect your base however air defense is crucial to defending against the all dragon war attack which is so prevalent in wars these days.

3) Teslas: These take a looong time to upgrade. I figured that if I committed one worker to teslas when my TH8 upgrade finished he could be working non stop for 1.5 months.

4) wizard towers / mortars. These are super important base defense but like air defense you don't want to be working on too many of these at once or your base is too vulnerable to being raided.

5) archer towers / cannons. This is lowest on the priority from defense standpoint in my opinion so work on these when you have an available worker who's not busy doing one of the above tasks.

6) barb king. Getting him to level 5 is a big help in raiding but is expensive on DE. how much DE you spend on your king vs how much you spend on upgrading minions and hogs is my current internal debate.

6) Barracks / storage. Having more than one dragon factory for example can be a big help when prepping for a war attack. Having more than two storage can reduce the amount you lose when you are raided. DE storage is necessary to upgrade your DE troops past a certain point.

The 'max base' advice you are hearing basically just means you want to finish all of your base defenses and troop upgrades before advancing your town hall to the next level. It appears that you are in the process of doing this.

This is a good list of priorities, however, before you start on it, I would focus on upgrading all of your walls to level 6(pink). You should have no gold walls at all at this point. Once you have all walls at pink, start on this list... However, keep 1 builder free at all times so that while you're upgrading buildings, you can start upgrading those pink walls to level 7(purple). If you complete all of your purple walls before you finish all of your building upgrades, start on your level 8 walls (skulls). The walls are just as important as your other defenses. They will be broken, but how fast they are broken can mean the difference between losing a little resources, or a lot, when you get raided.

Also, it may be a good idea to look up various farming bases to find one that will work for you. They help protect your resources and they leave the TH on the outside of the walls so that trophy farmers can attack it, effectively giving you a 12 hour shield in between play sessions.

Are you implying that that is not really her in the picture? You do know that you are not allowed to lie on the Internet, right?

You're smarter than your leader. Max it all before upgrading.

p.s. You're a hot mess I agree.. It's cute, find a better clan

I concur.

Ok I found game about 2 months ago cause broke my femar and can't move, I had no idea what I was doing so I rushed and jumped up th way to fast I posted about it and yall gave me great advice and taught me to farm and stuff wich has helped me tremendously so I have been able to upgrade defenses and stuff SLOWLY BUT STEADY, here's what I'm confused about and clan is no help at all my leader is th10 but some his stuff lower then me and when I ask things were a non talking clan Idk why but I want to fix my stuff b4 I go else were SO HERE'S WHAT I NEED TO KNOW I HAVE ALL TROOPS AT LVL5, EXCEPT PEKKA DRAGON HEALER MINIONS AND HOGS , CAN HOLD 200 TROOPS AND CASTLE HOLDS 20 MY CANNONS LVL 7 AND 8 MY ARCHER TOWERS 7, MORTERS ARE 5 AIR DEFENSE 3'S WALLS SUCK AND ARE GOLD AND PINK WHAT SHOULD I BE DOING BECAUSE I READ ALOT ABOUT MAX BASE BUT IDK WHAT THAT MEANS ANY ADVICE PLEASE I LOVE THIS GAME BUT STRUGGLING BIG TIME TO GET OUT THIS MESS I MADE.

I would have to agree with mostly everyone else here that you need to max your buildings before moving up again, could you possibly post a picture of your base so we can help out a little more too? I see everyone talking about TH8 but I didn't see that in your post (might have just missed it) but what townhall are you exactly?

Hoping we can all help you find what you need.

It was assumed because she stated she has troops at level 5.
