My Dex didn't go up.... 2nd attack got more off it. I had in access of 2,000 available. Not sure how much exactly just know it was a good amount. Maybe 2,400 or something.
As an experiment, I made a trophy base for my wife's village too...
She has gone up 254 trophies since changing the base 18 hours ago. Went up 211 of those trophies in the last 5 hours!
11 hits. 8 were trophy drops. 3 attacks... highest percentage done was 44% the others were 33% and 31% and she still has no shield. Hasn't had a shield for over 17.5 hours now. Oddly, there was a lapse of around 13 hours when no one attacked or trophy dropped.
My own clan's raiding army now largely consists of GiWiBarch with wb in various configurations and some bring goblins. We all use the same spells... 2 heal, rage, 1 jump. Smash th8s, as a 9. Punch into th9s to get at dex and depending, gets up to low 70% destruction. Half hour train time on troops, spells longer and heroes too.
This reflects what we are seeing in attacks against us too. Yeah, the occasional war type army, which we view as someone practicing as we do it too. But for the most part, some form of gibarch, usually with some wiz.
The saving grace with getting wrecked in the new update is getting a 16 hour shield. That basically means you can get about one more attack while shielded (ie 3 hours). 16 hour shields will mean a lot more post update as we typically would break shields moreso today in order to raid at our convenience.
I don't like getting wrecked but if I wanted to get a good session in without having to stay online letting my troops cook, I allow myself to get raided and I basically have 3/4 attacks with a shield. I just hope there are bad attackers out there lol! Either that or I go for a raid with tier 1 troops for faster cook times. barch and gibarch of course but I'm liking gibam or hogibam so that I can utilize the dark barracks. 20 giants, 30 barbs, 24 archers, 8 hogs, 11 minions will take 20 minutes to cook. 3 raids per hour isn't too bad if you heroes stay at full health. Only use 1 spell per raid would be the only budgeted amount to maintain this clip
Don't forget the 5 minute waiting period for those that are logging off. It will take 5 minutes before you get in the queue to be raided. This was in the latest update last week.
So here is a quick update:
Currently I am stuck at 3175 trophies. It is going really slow now, because there are not many trophy droppers and bunnies any more. The whole day I had one player dropping trophies on me giving me +25, but I lost my first defense. A guy around 3400 thought it was worth attacking me with max heroes and Laloonion because my ads are quite far outside and xbows are on ground. In the end he got a 54% one star. My 4 archer towers and max seeking air mines saved the day. No chance of getting the th because of one inferno still up eating all minions. Maybe he expected a bit more than that.
So I think the next day will decide if I will get to champion or not.

Walks outside and gives himself an uppercut - Duh!
So, since posting, she has gone up another 80 trophies... an idiotic failed giwiva attack that totally failed not even getting 30%, and 2 trophy droppers.
My base, I have it set to snipe mode. I've been on five/six times today. Raid, then log off while troops cook. Come back some time later, break shield, raid, log off. I see no reason to change this once the new system comes in - the log of and on thing, not my th position.

I've got a nice trollbase that takes me to 3200 with defence only... Do you guys think trollbases are useless after the update? Or do you think people try harder to get the TH because of the loot it will hold?
TH10 lvl 136 BBK 24 AQ 25 max def 50 lava's
TH8 max
