In need of a TH8 farming base, as well as war base... Lacking 3rd Tesla and P.E.K.K.A

[zOmBiEaMeRiCa]

Hi all, I've been doing a ton of searching for bases now that I am finally at TH8. I've found some good ones, but here are my two problems. One, I'm pretty terrible at the game, so TH8 or not, I'm still a newb. Two, when searching for bases, they of course come up with bases that have every available resource/building for that town hall level. I do not have my third tesla tower, or barbarian king yet. With any and all of these bases that I've found, they of course have these built into the base. Not really sure what to do. I need both a farming and war base, but when it comes down to it I have no idea what to substitute the 3rd tesla, or barbarian king placements with. Any help, base suggestions, or just advice would be greatly appreciated.

What do you mean by PEKKA? Its not a building... You could put a giant bomb where the teslas are..

Yeah, sorry. I know it's not a building, but it still takes up necessary space. If I'm not mistaken, depending on the placement of the pekka in the base, a giant bomb would leave a hole for raiders to spawn in.

Edit: Misread your post. But depending on the tesla placement, it would still have the same issue correct?

Currently I am using a base I found on YouTube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF-uWEV1rCE

I have been using it for about 3 weeks now, and I have only been seriously attacked twice. And I won both of those attacks. Try it out!

PEKKA is a troop, not a structure.

Just start building your third tesla, so you can have a complete base! I always start all new structures immediately at each new TH level.

Lacking the funds for the tesla. I understand that pekka is a troop, but he still takes up space on the board.

Like the base. Thanks

She only takes up space in army camps.. Teslas only take up 2x2 space, so nothing could spawn in a space where one is supposed to go. Teslas don't stop stuff from spawning anyway..

I use this base. Take a look on YouTube:

Skip to 1:11 for base!

It successfully protected my loot most of the time. Only once or twice someone got 2 stars but he/she only managed to steal 50k gold out of the 200k gold available. Nice spread out key defences (AD, mortars, wizard towers) and separated storages.

try it out!

Hes in a barrack, he can't take up more space.
