Farming tactics
We all want to get those upgrades quickly... its all about effective farming.
The best way to farm is using quick & cheap armies.
The best way to farm is using quick & cheap armies.
- Town Hall 3-7: the most efficient is barbs & archers (BARCH). Roughly equal numbers, and bring lightening spells. Look for bases with 100,000 or more in loot, with most in the pumps & mines. Put down a circle of barbs around the base, then follow with most of the archers, also in a circle. Wall breakers can also be used to break into the storages. Save the last few archers to pick of exposed buildings to get the 50% win. The silver leagues are great - but the actual trophy range will vary.
- Town Hall 8 plus: the same tactic can be used, but now heroes can be used in the last part of raid to get the 50%. Lightening spells are great at getting the extra % - look for builders huts & hero plinths.
- The quickest army is barbs, archers & minions (BAM). Same idea, with the minions following the other troops.
- TH10: at this level, farming can be done with same army, but the win bonus is the main source of loot. Masters 3 is great, some easy 1 star bases, and some surprise collector raids!
Farming Base Layout
Arranging your base to keep your loot safe!
- Spread out your storages, into different compartments. With the most valuable resource in the centre
- Cover the storages with splash defence - wiz towers & mortars
- Place the town hall in a corner so it can easily be taken out. Hopefully the attacking player will leave the rest of the base intact - giving you a shield and no resources lost!
- Place all the other buildings close to the base and ideally covered by a defence
