I don't. They are powerful, but only so long as they don't become the target of the defenses. They die easily.

If I want to overrun and win trophies, giants, wallbreakers and archers are my composition.

For loot, I replace most of the archers with goblins.

I know that barbarians are popular, but I don't use them often. And balloons and wizards suck.

But I'm looking forward to getting the Warrior now that I am moving to TH6. Seems whenever someone else has a healer they tend to kick my ###.

 
Still love the healer.

Just got the dragon. Gotta say, I don't think I'll use it too much. The 25k Elixer price tag is just a little too much.

 
Ok, can you guys help me out. TH4 and everything is expensive to upgrade for me at least. I can never get to the amount needed 25K+ gold or elixir. I have 544 trophies from people hitting me all the time. every morning I find i has hit 1 or 2 times and get like 40 to 50 trophies. Gonna stick the TH outside the wall (level 1) and put the mines inside with more protection.

I suck at attacking. All my troops are level 1. trying to upgrade to level 2 troops but i cant get there with resources. Do i need to lose more trophies to get easier targets?

thanks

 
Maxed out archers (lv6) together with a few wall breakers and goblins continue to be my favorite attack group.

It's gotten me to TH10 and Level 95 - and it still works. Just got to pick your battles.

And BTW - maxed out Hogriders (lv5) + follow them around with a couple of healing spells = devastation. Almost impossible to stop.

 
I've started bringing my iPad to work to get in a few moments during the day because I like it so much more than the phone.

The more i play the more I realize that research is the limiting factor here. You have to be researching something at all times. Max out the lab level, then upgrade the lab.

One comment here... realize that for many of the troops, you are multiplying their cost with each upgrade. Giants go 500, 1000, 1500... Barbarians go 25, 40, 60, 80... archers not quite a full increment, 50, 80, 120, 160.

So realize the net effect is if you upgrade everything you are pretty much doubling the cost it takes to rebuild your army, and you're not getting double the troops or double the firepower/hit points out of the upgrades. Up it to level 3 and now it's 3x the cost of your original non-upgraded army.

Not saying don't upgrade. But realize the same size hauls from raiding will give diminishing profits as you do. I hit a spot I got upgrade happy and had problems sustaining my army at the low trophy count I was at. You may want to balance it with bumping up trophies and increasing camp size so you have more troops and can go after bigger scores.

The key as you get higher in the game is that there is nothing to spend elixir on besides troops. dark elixir and gold will be your main targets.

upgrade your defenses and raid a lot

your priority shouldn't be upgrading your troops, but defending your base.

you want people to either take your TH and run (free 12 h shield)

or hit next when they see your walls and towers

Hog riders plus healing spells are awesome. My hogs are only 3 star and will be upgraded next after the healing spell upgrade finishes. I am still at TH9 and waiting to max out more defense.

 
I gave Wizards a try but the long build time was too much for me where I'm at in the game presently.

If I did use them a lot I'd probably use a Healer to keep them going. They do have more HP than archers so the healer has more of a chance to keep them upright.

 
Balloons kind of suck until upgraded. They get pretty badass at higher levels. Supposedly one guy made it to crystal league using only spells, barbs, and balloons.

 
Finally got my 3rd builder last night. Soooo happy.

But now I need to increase my storage so I can pay for all the stuff they need to build and upgrade.

 
had 250k elixer sitting around after a good raid, so I got the rax upgrade to get wizards. not sure if I'll use em or now, but mostly didn't want that much elixer sitting around just yet :)

Now just waiting for a builder to free up... There do seem to be some nice targets in the morning hours - much nicer then in the evening.

ive been finding some good ones while at work

 
Spell factory or save to upgrade archers or goblins? Are spells efficient for resource raiding or should I concentrate on other things first? I'm at TH 5 and my army camps also all need the level 5 upgrade so I guess that's another consideration.

I'm at a similar crossroad.

Should I get a wizard tower or spell factory, or upgrade my lab?

1) wizard tower

2) spell factory

3) upgrade lab

I always build every new building first and then worry about upgrades after.

The first spell is Lightning. It costs 15k elixir to make and builds for 15m. It does 300 damage in a big enough area to hit a building and the walls around it, or 2 buildings at least if between them. A basic cannon or archer tower has 400 hp. So one casting (all you get until later upgrades) won't kill a defensive building on its own. However it is very good at taking out enemies who come out of the castle. I mainly keep it in reserve for that, but sometimes if a battle is on the line I might blast a cannon/tower/mortar with it.

yeah Wizard Tower is separate, that costs gold and the other two are elixer. I do need to get my wizard tower as well though. That's next, my mortar upgrade finishes tonight.

 
You can't just simply gob rush a TH5 setup. At least, not very often. I've been keeping a couple of balloons in my queue just in case I do run across the guy that puts all his towers to the outside of his base and I can clean him out.

Lv3 Barbs are about an hour away. That may change things. also have both camps and the clan site upgrading now to give 15 more troops.

At a certain point archer towers and cannons will be one shoting your wizard or archers. Nice to have that extra power from your wizards. Upgraded they are beastly
 
Forgot about the spell factory when I did my rax upgrade to get wizards. Oh well . Wizard tower was my #1 thing to get upon hitting lvl 5. Tho

 
Weird. I got hit 6 tines last night all within a half hour and all in the last 30 minutes of my wizard tower build. One guy was dumping trophies but the rest were clearly resource hunting. Only lost 12k gold and 11k elixer in total, but it seems weird to get hit that many times within that timeframe.

same happens with me.. ill get 5 times in a row with a 7 minute window inbetween

tends to usually happen at night mostly

 
Had my first TH outside the walls attack, getting the 12 hour shield for only 1000 gold/elixir.

I wish you could have people in your clan do that for you at the end of the night.

was thinking the same, I wonder how often the attack button pairs you up with the same person

:thumbup:

Less than 100 gems to get there... looking forward to it.

 
Finishing up goblin level 5 tonight, then on to hog rider 2. I may put together an all dragon/balloon raid just for the heck of it. Upgrading walls is such a bore.

I had this happen too and while it is technically what I wanted, I was disappointed that the attack's 28% destruction counted as a victory for them. I only lost 2 trophies, but, whatever.
