5 minute TH9 Dark Elixer Farming Army (18 mins no boost) w/ VIDEO

[SachDaImpaler]

I'm a brand new TH9 and I have fast tracked my Archer Queen Upgrades and this is the method I've been using to continually upgrade her!

18 minute Cook Time w/o Barrack Boost
5 minute Cook Time w/ Barrack Boost
0 down time for Archer Queen

This attack strategy works best on weak to mid level TH8's. The goal of this strategy is to first locate and destroy the two DE collectors and then clear a path to the dark elixir storage for your Archer Queen using Tier 1 troops and whatever's donated to your CC (I prefer Giants).

Once you've cleared a path drop the Archer Queen in a location that she keys onto a storage near the DE and put the 4 healers behind her. If there's a AD that your tier 1 troops was not able to destroy the best practice is to drop your AQ directly in front of the AD so the queen destroys it first (there's normally enough distance between the AD and the healers that the healers do not trigger the AD).

The four healers keep the queen at full health until all of the DE is gather. Once the DE is gathered; best practice is to surrender so that the queen will have no recovery-time and is ready to go into the next raid. However if the queen can pick up star without losing health feel free to let her do so.

This tactic works really well for me and if I choose to boost all four barracks I'm able to get around 25k DE in two hours.

Further, your queue is very important... Always put your heavier troops in the queue first in this case queue order will be

Barrack A: 1 Healer, 1 Wall Breaker, 15 Archers and 15 Barbs
Barrack B: 1 Healer, 1 Wall Breaker, 16 Archers and 16 Barbs
Barrack C: 1 Healer, 1 Wall Breaker, 16 Archers and 16 Barbs
Barrack D: 1 Healer, 1 Wall Breaker, 16 Archers and 16 Barbs
Dark Barrack A: 2 Hogs
Dark Barrack B: 2 Hogs

Army composition: 4 healers, 4 hogs, 4 wall breakers, 63 archers, 63 barbarians and giants in the CC. See video for application of army.

Does the link to the video slow down your computer and hinder your day in anyway???

No because that's not virtually nor even physically possible. Although it does tick me off... Because you don't take the time of day just to do things properly. Supercell would not add a YOUTUBERS CORNER for no reason, so please use that specific sub-forum for your YouTube Advertising needs(videos that you want to post, regarding attack strategies, information, etc.).

Obviously no one likes to see a video in a wrong section.

Also, at least give us a summary of the attack strategy in the text, rather than hyping it up.

This is a reasonable request... I've added an attack summary and army composition to the description. Thanks for your comment.

I think Prodigy was meaning that he would rather you explain the content of your video(es) in TEXT rather than having us waste our time watching a video.

Although he didn't say it like that, I'm just saying it as I see and think. Hell, I'm all for what he said. Even if that wasn't what he was meaning, I'm still all for it either way.

Look, if you want to post on these types of sub-forums, don't put a meaningless video in your post, because a majority of the thousands of people who browse this forum daily, will NOT watch it, not even for a second. I'm not saying your videos are bad and I'm not saying they're good, I'm just saying that most people would rather READ an in-depth description of what the attack strategy it is, how its implemented and so on than to listen or watch someones video that probably has no detail of the attack strategy(or whatever the video may be about) or if it has nothing but footage of the attack its self.

Well I said that I wouldn't mind a video being there, but it should include actual text as well.

Anyway, yes, I agree with you.

As always; I'm appreciative of every comment (even if the person commenting woke up this morning and decided to be a jerk). Hell, I'm even greatly appreciative of the fact you took the time to semi-mediate the comments made by Prodigy.

I'm not new to forums, social media or self-entitled internet personalities; in all my years the only thing that's been consistent on the internet is that someone will have a problem with EVERYTHING you do. With that being said, i'll take better care to go into EXTREME DETAIL in my descriptions on any effective CoC strategies that I stumble across (since some people hate YouTube videos) but I'M STILL POSTING MY VIDEOS.

And don't misunderstand this reply Suspect this is no way shape or form a jab at you, you've always been super cool and neutral in your comments. You are appreciated.

I wasn't having a go at you either, the thing is, not everyone HATES watching YouTube videos, I personally like them myself(depending on the type of video), its just the fact that not everyone likes the types of YouTubers who barely know what they're talking about or who don't make YouTube videos for a living(the whole being experienced thing can influence many people to watch your videos), but either way I(this also applies to most people on these forums) just don't like the fact some people ignore the whole separate area of the forum that was made for them, the ones who want to share the videos that they themselves have made or have found on the internet.

Look to be honest, I'm fine with you posting your video(s) in this sub-forum, but just try your best to explain in detail about what the videos content's about(like what attack strategy and how it works or base was used in the video, or something similar to that), in text of course.

The reason on why I say text, is as I said, some people just prefer to read than to listen. Who knows, there might be a player who is deaf and (clearly) cant hear anything you're saying in the video, so having explain the whole thing in text is better for both the community and to those who cant hear as well as others(or even at all).

I truly do thank you for taking what I say into consideration, so just keep what I say in mind, okay? Thanks again.
