How to farm with loonion?

[victort]

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.

If you are looning - try to kill the cc with a loon, and its splash damage --- especially usefull against archers......
Its a nice trick to have in your arsenal

Looning a CC deployment is kinda difficult because they have to positioned next/near a defense for the splash to kill em. Minions will target them so you have to drop them right behind the loons, otherwise ground wizards/archers/dragons will wreck your loons in a heartbeat

I didn't imply you rely on it... its just usefull to know, ... realy usefull and easy against archers - one of the most common cc troops, and can be used on whiz as well.......


(no need to be near defense ... lure as normal to corner etc.. then drop loon --- the archers/whizz take it out, the splash kills em when it lands on top of them........ practice to get timing right, and you can sometimes save a zap....

Dear lord that's a lot of loons! And 4 spells? Is this war or farming!? That's 230,000 elixir!!!

Are your minions low level? Max those babies out, I'm telling ya, level 5-6 Minions are amazing. You won't be disappointed and you'll be able to reduce your dependency of so many loons and even spells.

OOOOOOOOH i see what you mean now, i thought you meant in the middle of a raid if you forgot to lure the cc cause god know i've done that so many times.
I forgot about the Dead-Splash that loons have silly me lol

Right now I'm using looning in Crystal, TH10, maxed camps.

24 loons
45 minions
1 lava hound.

Works pretty well.

Through all your comments I think i will do:
22 loons
55 minions (until max camps)

Farm at masters 3
Go for bases with over 3,000 de (when de farming)
Go for bases with over 200k gold (when gold farming)

Try to avoid infernos, wts, ad, and air xbows

Do not rely on loons
Try to clear cc with loons if possible

Anything else I should be aware of?

If you are def going to avoid infernos, spellwise consider trying heal, as its faster to cook and cheaper than rage, and quite effective ... I always used to insist on rage, but these days, i go with 1 zap, 1 rage for when/ if necessary, but 2 heal for the loons..... worth a try ... (i only tried it after someone showed me some replays)


obviously - try not to use too many spells .......but worth having along...

That sounds good. Finding 3000 de may require a bit of nexting, but it's out there in masters. Biggest issue may be making sure to grab enough elixir to either break even or profit depending on your elixir goals. Assuming you have top level loons, 22 loons is 99K elixir build cost.

Infernos - can be trouble, especially the multibeam variety at level 2 and 3. air defenses are the biggest issue of course. Pick camps that you can get to the ADs quickly. Xbows - not too hard to find camps with bows pointing down. And pointing up - not too bad if level 1. Level 3 and 4 are tough!

Im a half way th9 and when I bloonion which I have done only once for a longer time, I prefere to have spell factory boosted or use it as very casual gameplay mix. That way it's the perfect mix for master league where most targets are pretty much maxed th9 or decent to maxed th10s! If you boost spell factory and play in sessions then go on with 16 bloons 70minions to raid almost any target and get one or two stars and usually DE storage + two of each gold and elixir storage, yummie. Those rage btw makes it a quick job to kill the inferno towers aswell but preferably make it 20bloons and 50minions if you go against those bases. Plus you get 100k each gold and lix and 500 dark as a sweet minimi bonus when you win in masters!

If you are offline a while you don't need to boost spells ofcourse and you can try out even more of bloons to take on stronger targets but mostly it's all about where the wizard towers, inferno towers, cc (usually wizards in the master league due to high use of bloonion) and ofcourse those airlines that sometimes are bunched together in four to kill bloons so don't spam them on the same tower

Ps: be sure to have your hero/S alive, preferably archer queen if you want to be sure to get one star atleast or maybe just to get the dark elixir storage which is quite usual to get with the queen when the path is cleared by bloons. Right troops in ur cc to either help your army or clear last buildings or maybe kill cc is also quite important for many targets!

DS: i realise i have a long post already but the post above mine tells about a few more great points that I forgot to write
Have a good time bloonion raiding!
