Okay so I set up my auto clicker so I never have to log out so I can make a trophy push to champs. How is my rig?

If I make an army that is hanging out in my army camps, will they help defend if someone invades me? Something that I think isn't conveyed super well to new players is that if any buildings get razed during a raid they're repaired automatically for free afterward. It's like, 5 seconds of downtime, tops. The only permanent thing you have to lose is resources, and even then they can only steal something like 10% of what you have at the time anyway.

Thanks for the clarification, I was wondering about this too.

I started playing this yesterday and it seems that the defensive options are extremely underpowered compared to the offensive options you have. Does this change later on or should I just keep sniping people's warehouses and instantly spending all the gold on useless walls? Also why am I constantly being attacked by a single barbarian king or 2-3 random units? Are people tanking their ratings for some reason? how me a frog fucked around with this message at 05:57 on Feb 8, 2014 |

People dropping trophy levels will send out a unit to start a fight then surrender.

I don't even think you'd need a full not just an auto click when a box appears so you are only logged out five minutes an hour. Until you get banned for being on 24/7 and are clearly bottling. You could add an 8 hour sleep though so its realistic, but does anyone really care about losing 10%?

Its more of "my trophies are gone  " than resources. Trophy pushing is kinda lame if you aren't th9 or 10. Not enough umph to defenses or troops. The only time Ill stay online is if I am 100-200k away from a multi million upgrade and don't want to take the chance.

Well I finally got to 1250 trophies this morning, TH8. Still haven't attacked anyone yet, but my tower defense blueprint is working well. I got 36 trophies last night while giving up less than 50K in gold and 150K in the purple stuff. I don't understand why people attack if they aren't going to get anything much and give up their trophies.

Just spent 30 minutes looking for someone to hit, nothing. TH5 kind of sucks, you are stuck in the giant rut with no healing. Most bases will just chew through giants with ease between the mortar and the wizard's tower. I have access to Wizards but I'm not really sure if they are worth using at this point.

Yes they are. Especially in your mortar's blind spots.

I think Zotix means the unit Wizards with that last question, but I think Soulex you're referring to the tower in your answer. I would also like to know the answer. Currently I'm going mass goblins and some wall breakers as needed to just gank resources and take the loss. For getting trophies I just used barbs, archers, and wall breakers. I'd like to know if there are better options. I've also found giants underwhelming so far, but maybe I'm using them wrong.

Ah. Yeah, early on barbs and archers are your best bet. Giants really don't come into their own until healing spells. And then its good. Really avoid them until you can heal them.

In lower levels (where I am) giants are great as a distraction while my goblins clean house or my archers destroy them.

I used to use barbs and giants only, but now that I've mixed in archers, I've been winning or looting far more effectively. Giants not only tank well, but they head straight for the nearest defensive building. 4 of them can kill a mortar by themselves, even with a bunch of towers shooting at them. I'm still at TH4, so winning really depends on where the enemy mortar is. If they're dumb enough to put it near a perimeter, then I drop some giants nearby to aggro and then drop archers to kill the mortar. Even against towns that you know you can't win against, you might find a full collector in an unprotected corner. Drop a test archer and see what happens. Always Be Clashing

I mistimed an attack and sent out all my archers on a base I would otherwise have easily taken. A second before the mortar died. One shot and all my archers were gone, and so were thirty of my trophies.

If I receive CC troops, then attack and don't use them during that attack, will they disappear after the battle just like regular unused troops?

Unused troops don't disappear after attacks, whether they're in the CC or not. If you have a full camp + cc, and only drop one archer in an attack, only that archer will disappear.

Some attacks I get just don't make sense. Like one guy who dropped 30 barbarians, 18 archers, 8 giants, 8 wizards, and a lightning spell (all 2-3 stars) to get at my 2k gold and 1k elixir. Or this other guy who dropped 3 giants, 12 wall breakers, 2 goblins, 15 archers, and 13 barbarians to take 5k gold, 700 elixir, and lose the fight. I know for a fact there are much better targets at my rank so I don't know what these people are thinking at all. I don't lose anything I care about and it's pretty funny waking up to those kind of things, but it's also hurts my brain.

I get pretty annoyed at dudes who just hit the DE collector with lightning spells and run away. I almost auto-revenge those guys just because. Hell, I don't even mind when I get full-on attacks and lose DE that way, at least it's ... honorable, I guess.

McSpankWich posted:Thinking ahead to TH8, what do you guys think of these layouts? Are you raiding or trophy farming? Either or, triangles are good (mortars in a triangle, wiz towers etc). Id also recommend putting your clan castle in the middle so your troops wont get baited out and your barb king on sleep. Unless you want him for defense. Ill post mine as soon as I figure out how to do it from my phone.

McSpankWich posted:Thinking ahead to TH8, what do you guys think of this layout? I wasn't going to wall in my TH, but I had like a billion excess walls, so I did. Working on a second option now. That base isn't too bad, but if I came across it I wouldn't hesitate to attack. The Clan Castle and King are out on the edge which means I can easily kite them out to kill using those builders huts in the corners. The wiz towers are fairly near the edge, so they would come down quickly. All the compartments would be a pain in the rear end, but I would still go for it. This is approximately what I've been using, and I've been happy with it.  It's still vulnerable to hogs, but so is everything. Attacks generally go for the DE storage first, and often don't make it past 1 of each storage. Almost nobody attacks me with air based forces. Just as a general rule, don't put builders huts on the edges. It just makes it easier to kite your forces out of the CC.

Back when I was in TH8, I used this setup: In the 3-4 months I was at TH8, I only got three-starred one time, and that was with an all-dragon attack and I only had two Air Defenses available. Other than that, it was intimidating enough to just have the TH taken out and then have the leftover troops fried with the pair of Teslas behind the Barracks.

Upgrading your walls does two things, reduces attacks through intimidation, and causes many (basically all) attacks to peter out prematurely.

Looks like we'll have a few free spots in Dolla in a few days. Also, has anyone raided another goon yet from one of the other two clans? Make sure when that happens you cry about it in this thread so we can all make fun of you.
