where th7 can find black elixir?

[Sladjan]

Okay i just finally maxxed my town hall 7 base. I maxxed all lab (well baloon in progress), so ... I have few problems/questions.

1. I hard find loot. But I still have 4,000 000 both. When someone crushed me I just back from few attacks on bad th7/8

2. I dont maxxed King. He is only level 2. I also maxxed all barrack, but I dont maxed minions and hogs to level 2.

So for king I need maybe ~40 000 dark elix and for hogs 20000 and 10000 for minion level 2.

Where to find all that black elixir ? I take 300 per attack. Bcs nobody have more. Town halls 8 are untouchable for me. I mean. They have centralized black storage. I cant beat strong th8 even with 22 level 4 giants and 2 healers.

- I dont have time to destroy base (level 4 wallbreakers dont help so much against skull walls... )

- I dont want to light spell storages... so lame

- which army composition to use ? I am not sure how other players find DE. Town hall 8 easy catch me with strong troops.

- to click upgrade town hall 8 ? Or continue to try ?

3. In town hall 8 how much drills help ? Maybe I am not good attacker :-) I find elix/gold somehow but black.... even in reach 10000 DE (lose elixir), town hall 8 kill me...

4. So to wait and upgrade collectors or move finally to Th8 ?

5. What is best trophey range for DE loot ? I am not sure how I will find all that DE

Btw I seen loot th8/7 without heroes or with only level 1 king. But also I am attacked with pretty well upgraded king (level 5-9)

At this point your best bet is to go as high as you can and barch full drills.

One lvl 3 drill will not help much at all. Lots of ppl rush to TH8 for a drill and it is almost always a mistake.

Okay. I am now gold 3. I tryed also gold 2 but there are almost all upgraded th8... Have I any chance in crystal or gold 1 ? I really want to upgrade DE troops and king.

Your best bet might be sniping th in crystal with light spells. People whine about DE zappers, but who cares about them, do your thing! You'll get crushed when you log out so try to play on huge amount of time at once before logging off.

Is it so dark that its black now?

There is a guide for farming DE created by Newbie that I used. Got my BK in one day by following his guide. Will try and track it down for you.

I found it easier to skip DE upgrades, and do them at TH8; as it's easier to find DE. I just focused on the BK at TH7, but whatever is clever.
