How to farm with loonion?

[Harrypt63]

I am a casual player. I play at most one hour a day. I have max th9 defenses and troops besides a couple. (I'm actually a new th10. I currently have 220 space but will be upgrading soon).

How do i farm with loonion? I got bored of barch since it took forever to find a good raid that my barch could take.

How many of what?

What spells if any?

Trophies?

What to aim for (loot and base wise)

Thanks!

Depends on your troop capacity. Mid-Th8, and I use 30 loons and 25 minions. 2 heals and 1 rage (for th9, 2 heal 2 rage should be sufficient). AD/Wiz towers/Teslas are your biggest enemies. Archer towers are a nuisance but are not noticeable overall. I like finding bases with under leveled Wiz Towers that are close to the outer layers. that way, my loons can clean them up quickly. Trophy wise, I would stick around gold-Crystal but Im a th8, so what do i know

If your looking for a quick training time I'd go for 16 loons 60 minis. If you want a longer one if your casual I'd go for 20 loons and 50 minis.

Edited to your questions.

I usually bring 32 balloons and 30 minions. But if you want to lure CC troops first then maybe 28 balloons, 30 minions, 20 archers.

For spells I bring 3 healing spells (drop them when the balloons are close to wiz towers) and 1 lightning spell to zap CC troops.

Gold 1 should be a good range for TH9. I would aim for bases with low level wiz tower and AD obviously. Avoid inferno towers.

Also depends on what you are Looting for. My comp is elixir heavy while Squain's comp is DE mild. Gold is irrelevant so you could use both comps and be successful if you need gold

Barracks 1: dragons
Barracks 2: loons
Barracks 3: loons
Barracks 4: loons
De barracks 1: 35 minions
De barracks 2: 35 minions

stay in crystal league for the de loot bonus.

I think it's an overcompensation going too many loons. I was the same way when i just started Loonioning. As I've perfected my own version of the strategy, I found that you can have too many Loons.

Max Loons | Level 5 Minions

If I want more gold or elixir: 20 Loons 60 Minions (faster training time too)
If I want more de: 24-28 Loons 40-50 Minion

If I need more gold or elixir: I avoid using any spells, avoid TH10 with infernos, avoid TH9 with Xbows set to Air.
If I want more de: I hit harder bases with more DE, I use 2 heal spells dropping my Loons into 2 groups towards AD. 2 heal spells and it's pretty clear sailing from there. Still avoid TH10 infernos, don't care about Xbow settings.

Similar advise on the Wiztowers, anything below 5 doesn't hurt the Max Loons very much. Focus on ADs, they can really wreck your raid. Don't be shy with the Loons, you want to win with overwhelming force. Don't hesitate too long to drop minions, they will tear through a base like Locus'. Drop them immediately behind the Loons, which will absorb damage and troop both types of air mines.

Crystal 3 and 2 has been fantastic for Dark Elixir and I get sniped 19 times out of 20.

i agree on the overcompensation part lol. I like making sure i win against early Th9s and max th8s so i go in heavy.

I find the minis more useful than the loons. Just personal preference but if your looking for DE definately use more loons if you aren't worried about training time.
