Is loonian still the best way to get DE? Really?

[irthepirate]

No, I am a th8 and I find it very annoying that my Lv4 DE Storage is full 90% of the time (with lab upgrades running and bk sitting at lv10). There is no reason to even waste your time to get to the DE storage. Every time I zap a storage in crystal 3, I get over 1k dark elixir, and also when doing normal collector farming, I find from 337-3600 (on average 1k) de in the collectors. Barch armies take < 20 minutes to train and IMO is much better than what you are doing.

About how long does your army take? I like wizards but the time on them...

With the archers some where around 23-27 minutes with wizards some where around like 3 wizards per barracks so like 24 minutes for the wizards so you can raid like every 30-35 minutes with barracks boosted probably like 5-9 minutes for both of them!

Zapping tho... 90mins for 3zaps, not to mention being an a-hole.

I'm done reading this thread now you zapper you. I hope you get revenged alot.

Zapping is not okay, but entering someones village and murdering him for his DE is ?? What a sense of false morality. Followimg this dumb logic, you are the a-hole for attacking someone you dont know who hasnt done anything to you.

I just use barch with wallbrkrs.....takes 25ish mins to train(sometimes 15-20mins is they are pre-trained in the barracks). take on bases with 1500 is DE (in gold 1-2) or go to crystal just for DE farming and bonus.make 1 light 1 rage and 2 heal. use spells only when necessary.Collected 85k DE with this method in a week or 8 days .

I think it is easiest to get DE using loonion, but the hour plus wait for the army not to mention spells is off putting to say the least. But what I do is make that army whenever I'm going to be logged off. Then I use the made loonion army to get as much DE as possible, and hit some DE using BARCH in between "big" DE raids. Also, maxing out DE collectors is helpful. That 100 DE an hour helps out, or at least makes it a lil quicker to get back any DE that was taken.

This is not me complaining about loot at all. I'm just wondering. My loonian army takes like 50 minutes and uses 500 DE. Is loonian really still the best way? Having some trouble trying to max these heroes. I was using a giant/barch army but... eh the results are mixed.

All the DE guides say use loonian but none of them are really recent.

how do you get to 500 DE?? my level 4 minions cost 360 (taking 40 of them), and i get 2000-4000 each raid when farming for dark elixir.

here's the guide i made a while ago...hope it helps you..

I'm using Barch + giants + 8 WBs. Relatively new TH10 in C2. The DE is flowing, My AQ is sleeping 3 weeks in a row now and lab just finished Golem 5. Mostly going after collectors, but will go for the storages if the base is not well protected.
