Are you keeping your builders busy by just 'Milking?'

[JJL66]

Just wondering, I have only one builder busy and my lab upgrading my P.E.K.K.A Gibarching.

So I wonder if you milkers have more than 2 builders busy by just milking, I'm thinking about trying it but don't know yet nor I'm sure how...

I'm farming walls with milking, so technically no. But I am using it.

Nope 4 free builders sleeping. 1 upgrading AD to level 7 being ready in a day. And giants upgrading to lvl6 be ready in 1 day too. Got raiding 5 times today under 30% lost about 1m each and 5kDE. 😪

Im doing 2 lvl10 walls 3 mil a piece and keeping both hero's sleeping at 100k each. But my builders couldn't be working if I had 100% full storages as wall and hero's all my th9 have left

Shhhhhhhhh....what is milking? It doesn't work! Move it along, nothing to see here! SC just focus on nerfing War Armies...they are wrecking my farming base!

5 builders busy on TH11 upgrades. Warden on way to 13. De capped, elixir capped. Phat stacks.

Yes. Th9 in silver3.

Tried doing it SC's way, then gave up and dropped. Been milking the last couple weeks.

Pre-update I was in champs using war armies and sniping when I ran into them. I kept all builders and lab busy 24/7.

Just after the update, I was able to maintain trophy count, but progress halted. Builders and lab went idle for the first time ever.

Admittedly, part of the problem was I played a lot less, but that was because it didn't feel like it was worth the effort - 2 steps forward, 1 step back. Then one day I decided to just go for it, and made an honest effort to get resources - boosted barracks, spells, and heroes for a few hours. End result? I made gold and de, but then flat out ran dry on elixir. It was a low point where I just gave up and purposely dropped just to seen how low I could go (I stopped when I got kicked out of bronze3).

Inadvertently, I ended up in silver and started milking. I'm making more resources than before the update - builders all busy (except 1 that is saved for dumping on walls and aq upgrades), lab running, even made major progress in walls. Also, upgraded my aq a ton (farmed the de, but gemmed a lot of the time down due to both war and not knowing when they will nerf milking).

However, this progress has come at a price. It's not fun and it takes a lot of playing in spurts (because if you stop with a lot of stored resources, you get hammered). I'm getting burnt out. At this point I'm just trying to get as many of the big upgrades out of the way, because unlike before the update, there is now a sense of urgency - I don't know when they will change things again and take this option away.

This is more of a personal issue/problem, but how I've been playing is totally not healthy. Good news is that break is almost over, so I couldn't continue this pattern even if I wanted to (which I don't).

So to answer your question, yes it is possible to keep everything busy by dropping and milking like crazy. But again, there is a price. Also, I have noticed that the loot isn't as good (overall - you still run into good stuff every once in a while) lately compared to what it was when I first started milking a couple weeks ago. Still is okay though, if you don't mind playing constantly.

I see that for casual players this will not work.

Thank you for taking your time explaining your milking experience. ....
