Can't decide if I should rush to th9 Help me rushers!

[SinOfDusk]

I have never quite understood why people rush to fast. The game is more or less intended to be maxed then move of so you are not behind. I have maxed every th with a minimal of troop upgrade and walls left. Easily fixed. When I finally start a mini will likely do the same. Most rushers seem to pay for it in the end...the higher you get the harder it gets to collect the vast amounts you require.

We play to reach the end game. While you maxers reach TH9 at 9 months, we reach there within our first half year. As many people already said, TH9 is the best TH (not for me), and there's no harm reaching there early and staying in TH9 for extended periods of time.

The "vast" amounts required is only applicable if you maxed, lvl 8 cannons cost the same whether you do it in TH7 or TH10. But getting offense up to speed does take a vast amount, but after it is done, it is totally worth it

Max WT and Mortairs are necessary to survive at TH9.

Rush those Xbows for the sake of your village.

I am confused between the idea of rushing to th9 or not. I came in th8 as a maxed th7(walls included).
I am 1.5 months into th8 now and this is my position.
Barbarians and archers to level 5 done.
Pekka will be level 3 in 3 days.
Wizard is level 5

All other troops are townhall 7 level.

For Defences and others-
2 Mortars level 6 and 2 going to level 6
1 Wizard tower level 5, 1 level 4 and 1 going to 5
Air defencea are level 5, 5 and 6.
Barbarian King is level 10.
3 level 9 Barracks and 1 level 10.
1 Dark barracks level 4 other not built.
New Elixir storage maxed and new gold storage not built.

42 Skulls all other level 7

All other things Th7 level.

Here are some reasons I wanna Skip th8 and the reasons I am hesistant to.

1 Since I started Pekka 3 my DE is sitting at 25k+ and I lose 1.5k Everytime.
I wud have invested a lot in my queen by now if i was th9.

2 I wanna try new war armies and Jump spell. Specially witches. I am a hardcore GoWiper and invested a lot in it. I want jump spellfor my gowipe.

3 I am overflowing on Elixir. Would have invested in Walls or Lab upgrade or Army camps etc.

I am a hardcore farmer 3-4 hours daily so I can farm a lot more than I give away

I dont wanna be a liability in war So I wont build xbows or new defences. So ultimately I will be maxing th8 with Th9 war capabilities and farming capabilities in some time.

Here is what I am afraid of
Loot problems. I dont want to be stuck trying to get 3million elixir for an upgrade

Thats all.

Should I rush? Is it extremely hard to get loot at th9? Is there sonething imp I should get done at th8 and then rush? Please help.

Build all new buildings and get them to a working lvl, max ur farming army's and if u war ur war army's.

I'd also reccomend maxing WB, goblins, hogs (if u war), giants and loons. This will save u tones of time with upgrading our troops to the best th9 farming comps (balloonian, gibarch/gigarch.

Edit: I'd reccomend searching sinofdusks guide to rushing, its an awesome guide that has helped me a lot with rushing.

Exactly this

[Jatindevnani123]

If you're going to have Hogs 4 at TH8, I'd probably switch the War upgrade order I listed earlier to favor Hogs over LaLoon. So something like Hogs, Jump, Heal, Balloon, Hound, Golem for the war upgrades. (don't forget your farming troops too, those are just the key war upgrades)

I will get Golems to 2 at th8 too then. With so many upgrades I may skip it to very last. I will get it done too

I never use goblins ao Im gonna skip them I will definitely get Wbs, Giants, loons and gogs up before going up and may be heal spell too.

Rush, the sooner you start working on queen, the better.

[MikeSteele]

Sure you can! Only risk I know is that every person on global who spends their entire weekend criticizing other people's base nailing you with insults since they take the game too seriously.

(On a serious note, do what you feel is right)

Says who ?

I rushed every TH (some more than others) all the way to my current TH of 10, when am I going to start paying for it??

I'm going to have to disagree here. I didn't upgrade any mortars to lvl7 until my second half of TH9, and right now my TH level is 10 and I still only have two lvl7 mortars with the other two at level 6, and I'm surviving just fine (granted, I maxed my wizard towers, archer towers, xbows, air defenses, and 3/4 teslas plus almost all legos and strong heroes, but still, I really don't think the mortars are essential)

The lvl7 wizard towers are very useful though. Once I had a couple purple wiz towers and at least one lvl2 xbow (as well as most walls including new ones to skull) I started to get sniped a lot more, and barch attacks against me became much less successful.

But IME mortars don't really make an impact to anything other than barch. Wizards towers on the other hand are a legitimate threat to giants. Loons too.
