Th7 to Th8

[Thien026]

I've been playing alot more recently since I've started a 2-3 months ago. Doing school work while trying to be attacking every time my troops finish (600 attacks so far this season-i think thats a lot no?),spent twenty bucks to get to 5 workers (with all the bonuses and what not) and will not spend more to finish buildings faster.
I got to th7 about 5 days ago and I've finished all my walls and my barb king will finish in 1.5 days. Finished my arch upgrade and 1 day left for barbarians.
I did have max th6 and basically add on top of that 5 days of upgrading in th7. But my defenses are not close to being maxed nor my army upgrades.
However since I play so much is it a wise decision to move on to th8 so I can continue farming for de and gold to max my walls and barb king? (Note: a lot of you will probably say don't go to th8 because when I get hit I'll lose a lot more resources than I do now but I'm on so often I basically only get hit when I go to school or sleep, so maybe two-three max a day. And I'm typically in gold3-2 so I don't normally see or hit th6s) I don't mind losing 500k gold/elixer or about 1-2k de each hit.
I know most people will say stay at th7 to the normal player but I'm pretty sure I play more than average.
If you recommend I should/shouldn't please let me know why, thank you all!

Max out TH7 first -
I did it with no gems and only 4 builders.
What worked for me was training a army of goblins with 5 giants (for distraction) dropping to 1000 - 1100 and farming for Elixir mainly to max out castle and camps.

Then more elixir to research everything, this will help at TH8
I then went back to farm Gold and slowly did defence and then dark for Bark king.
Walls I completed slowly while I practiced raiding with different troop combinations - This will also help you at TH8

What ever you decide - good luck

Just upgrade your townhall if your walls are maxed, no point in having no gold dump since you can farm faster then the casual player.

Though have you maxed your camps, spell factory, farming / war troops yet?

Otherwise I would get that done before or under the townhall upgrade.

That's EXACTLY what I did. Except I used 10 giants and 5 wb

My bad it wasn't five days, 2 days for lab 3 days for archer upgrade and half a day left for barb so lets say a week.
And yes I have finished my army camp and farming troops(basically just barch all day) but I haven't yet done my war troops because my clan does not war often. Everybody tells me to upgrade dragons just in case of war so I'm going to do that for the clan.

Really appreciate the input guys, hopefully some more people have some insight into what I should do. I'm in no rush to go to th8 but if many ppl think I should then I will

Max out TH 7. It's very quick and easy to do... TH8 has two levels of upgrades for each defense and like 12 levels total of Tesla upgrade alone. It is so nice going in, and being able to start on the new upgrades, without worrying about the old TH stuff. You will be very weak if you don't,and it will seem a little overwhelming. Just max it out, you can do it easily.

If i were you i would chill and just experience th 7... You can only be th 7 once you know. Loot is easy, wars are straightforward with mass drags... Best th level ever IMO. But if you wanna be more efficient, and your really on A LOT. Upgrade your farming troops, max walls, camps and storages then go to th 8.

Since u play a lot, your clan doesn't war that often and all of ur walls are maxed..hit the upgrade button!! There's really no point in maxing defenses and letting all that gold from raiding go to waste.

[irmtfan]

Always upgrade your TH when your walls finish.
Walls are not very important for defense purpose but max walls show you are a good farmer in your level so you can live in the higher TH easily.

Upgrade to TH8 ASAP so you can use your gold.

600 wins per season is very high. mine is just about 300. I play 3 hours per day in one session.

thank you so much everyone. I think I'm going to be upgrading within a week. That way I get to experience raiding with my lvl 5 bk a little bit before he goes on the constant upgrade to level ten once I hit th8 and at least finish my mortars/wizard towers/ and some archer towers etc.
