Need help from TH9 players!!

[SpartaMiner]

Hey guys. Please read everything, I kinda failed at organizing the information.

Here's my base. http://oi60.tinypic.com/2mxnxw9.jpg

As you can see, I have completely maxed out defenses (the rest are upgrading) but not walls.
I know the usual advice is "max everything before upgrading TH" and I know that- everyone does. I need better advice than that!

My lab has 39 days of non dark troop upgrades left. Drags to 3, pekka to 3, gobs to 5, heal to 5 rage to 5. May or may not max out all of these.

WALLS! My goal is to get all walls to lvl7 at LEAST, I am going for all lvl8.

LOOT! I can't find much loot for my walls, though I farmed 9m gold in 3 days (3-5 hours per day). My gold storages are on the edges because I will not be holding any more than 500k gold since walls are my only upgrade with gold, I only need to protect elixir and DE.

Questions:
Are walls to lvl8 worth it?
Do I need to get BK to lvl10?
What else do I need to do before TH?
Once I reach th9, what should my primary upgrades he?
Where is the loot! I need loot for walls.
Is my base good?

ANY SUPPORT WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

1. Walls to level 8 before TH9 is good, but it isn't a necessity. At least get your walls to 7 though.
2. You should be able to get your BK to 10 while you are spending time on upgrading walls, if your BK is 8 or 9 that is fine.
3. I would get all those lab upgrades done, or majority of them. Definitely do goblins to 5, drags to 3 and rage at the least.
4. Xbows then upgrade splash defenses then teslas for gold, and for elixir upgrade your lab, spell factory and drills.
5. Gold 2, maybe 1 if you're trying to get more DE
6. It is pretty good for a TH8, but most TH9s will be able to walk all over your base.

Getting walls to lvl8 at th8 was the best thing i could of done but not because of the increased defense, its mostly a mental thing. Seeing a base with lvl8 walls makes it seem much more formidable than a base with lvl7 or lvl6

Thank you for providing good information. Yeah th9s will wreck me all the time.



As for the post directly above me. Yes, that's a big reason i want to upgrade the walls. The first thing most people see is walls. And a th9 with lvl7 walls looks somewhat weak

An impt thing you missed was upgrading your storages. When you go up many upgrades require 5-7million gold/elixir. You will need to upgrade your 4th storage to do the upgrades that cost 6 million+, the last thing you want to do is have to upgrade your 3rd storage as well.

Golem, BK and hogs worth doing too if you have the ability to farm DE.

Walls to 9
aq to 30
bk to 20
that would be my minimum.. Rest would be 100% max

Have to echo this before going to TH9. Absolutely max your storages and have them full for when you hit TH9. It lets you get the lab and CC upgrading immediately. Get your DE to at least 40,000 also and you can get your AQ right away - if you get 62,500 DE you can get her upgrading to lv2 right away.

Neglected to upgrade storages because I never needed them, and it was hard enough protecting the few that I had. Yes I will max them before moving on.

Any reccomended trophy range for me to fill up my storages in? (WHERE IS LOOT)

[halfbreed]

Regarding the storages, you're looking at it the wrong way in terms of having a harder time protecting your resources. It's actually easier to protect your loot when it's spread out between storages because an attacker has to destroy all three storages to get all your loot. Yes, it might be easier to get to one storage, but the attacker will only get 1/3 of the loot instead of 1/2.

Completely aware of this. Not what I meant though. It's harder to protect three storages because you only have so many walls at your disposal. Yes I know there are some bases that can I plan to use those, actually. Soon.
