    How to farm with a net positive gain on elixir in masters? Please help.

    Hi, I am a th9 and I am having a hard time figuring out how to make an elixir profit in masters. No matter how many times I next there never seems to be a base I can find where I could make a profit. Can you guys recommend any specific comps or is there really no solution?
    thanks.

    Ballionian cheap and look for base which have 1.5k+ de not elixer because if you win and get the dark the bonus covers the cost plus however much elixer you steal is extra

    What army are you using?

    I use GiBarch. 8WB's, 12 Giants, 72 Barbs, 72 Archers. Total cost: 103,200

    My king is almost always sleeping, making him useless. Queen is only level 11, but I would not raid without her.

    I also have 5 level 5 wizards in my CC.

    With a league bonus of 100k for Masters III, the base does not have to offer much elixir for me to profit. I my best to not use spells. The ones I carry are: Poison, two heals and the rest lightning.

    Obviously, I'm not zapping dark. The zaps are for killing builder huts, alters or anything else I might need to make sure I get the 50%.

    Maximum usage of spells should only be 1 heal and 1 rage no more

    Ya i was using that but then loonion was easier to get the 2 star for me but I might have to switch back. Do you use spells?

    There's three ways I do this as I sometimes find the same problem...

    1. Replace elixir troops with dark troops, hogs, golems, witches etc along with your royals and a few spells. Look for a base with 100k+ elixir and make sure you get that 50%

    2. Next until you find a 250k+ elixir base. I am currently using 9 healers, 18 hogs and my royals. Get your queen out first stick all healers on her. Then use hogs from opposite side of base to take out as many defenses as possible. I brew 3 heals and one jump or one rage. If the base is 250k and you get 50% you will come out in profit.

    3. Gibarch and do some collector raids.. again making sure you get one star for rhe bonus on top. These bases do crop up quite often even in masters. I tend to still need heal spells to make sure I get the 50% though.

    They all have their pros and cons. Option 2 for example has left me wanting to throw my phone against the wall more times than I can count when people have lvl 6 loons or lvl 6 wizards in their cc.
    Option 1 means your dark elixir depletes very fast and then you need to concentrate on that again. It's a vicious circle.

    It's a balance in masters unfortunately. I definately fins elixir harder to build up than gold.
