[Craze] Farming 102

[BonbeeTyrael]

This thread is REALLY motivating me to work on some walls!!! I still have some of TH9 to max though, and the upgrades are not cheap! Here's the deal: 3 options.

1) Work on maxing TH9, when you are done...WALLS, WALLS, WALLS!
2) Do walls. Now. NOW. Put your defenses on hold.
3) ALWAYS KEEP THE BUILDERS BUSY! Try to fit in a wall or two with any extra gold you have.

If you need, check my base in Bonbee Is A Cat. IGN rsiro.
What is your opinion?
Thanks all

3 is the beat option. Rarely will you not have 3-6m extra for walls each day.

Don't just say archers because some people like myself don't use that many. And about it not holding anymore...if i search for 10min attack for 2 without disconnecting half my army will be done when i get back.

well, okay. i'm not sure why you wouldn't want archers given that we're in a farming thread.

i don't know if you're lying, your memory is faulty, or your perception is off. in 3+ minutes (including however much time you spend admiring your looted resources screen) you could train up to 36 barbs (3 per minute, with four barracks) or even 40 barbs (if you spend another 20 seconds -- enough time for one barb per barrack -- after the fight is over looking at the loot). in fact, because each barrack can "store" one unit, it's possible that you could have 44 barbs trained because the moment you use troops during the attack, those units are credited to your total.

obviously, if you didn't use all of your giants, wallbreakers, etc., it's possible to have roughly half your troops after a raid, especially when you add in 44 additional units. but that doesn't mean you TRAINED half of your army during the raid. you understand the difference, right?

SC is NOT letting you train troops while you search for bases to attack. if you visit your base after looking for bases to attack, you don't have a surplus of troops (aside from the four units that can be trained in reserve).

I'm lucky because I still have pumps and mines with 24 hour build times remaining. My aim is to have a builder free at some point daily. I can normally go close to maxing storages in a day which allows me to do both walls and start another build.

If I didnt have low level pumps and mines I'd be forced to keep a builder free or waste gold, a position i expect to be within a month anyway.

Let's put it this way. Each of my barracks does 3 WB, 2 giant, 7/8 barbs and my highest lvl barracks does 25 archers . Rest goblins. Sometime i come back and all but the goblins are done building...that's alot more than 3 minutes... It's about 12.

Actually, they do. Try searching for 20 mins, attack, then come back to full army camps. Obviously not attacking and revisiting your base resets that timer.

Exactly. I thought this was very well known...

Had an argument with ivanmostdope i believe about this, im happy im right

Or try using all your troops and your army camp won't be totally empty when you come back.

[silentwill]

It is. I think they're the exceptions.

[ivanmostdope]

If your camps are empty yes , but storm was saying that if you leave with a full army that troops will still be training while you search which is false no troops wiill finish until you deploy , but until then the 4 troops that are technically finished will stay in the barracks.
