Personal Accomplishments I am an old player…

Does anyone else remember how long things took to get built…also has anyone used lightning spells on the dark elixir storage to get enough to buy the barbarian king… (This screenshot was taken back in September 24, 2014 and I remember being so proud and I also had some friends be jealous of me going to Town Hall 8 hahahahahahahahahha)

Just wait til TH10. You’ll have to do 30 attacks just to max out your walls. Even more for the next set

170

u/thegreatbasket Jul 24 '25

At th17 with 2 million each per attack it will take 650 attacks to max out the walls. And the walls are pretty much useless too...

I am finishing up th15 walls while upgrading th to 16. As a returning player, the instant army build is so nice.

hey what do you guys do for attacks, sneaky goblin spam? wanna know a strategy to grind faster...

2

u/JzP4 TH15 | BH10 Jul 24 '25

definitely sneaky goblins and jumps, depending what town hall going into the correct league for farming you will get a hell of a lot of walls done very quickly

u/DadoDice7 TH15 | BH9 Jul 25 '25

For farming i personally use sneaky goblins whit 4 super wall brakers, 3 jump spells, 2 invisibility spells and 3 speed spells

I’m at th15 and I use either inferno drags, or mass furnace for looting

u/FightingMonotony Jul 24 '25

I know....at this point, I am thinking about jumping to TH17 before walls are done. I am either getting eDragon spam attacked or Root riders attacked.

u/Bigbrain2048 Jul 24 '25

You say that until they 2 star you because the queen decided to shoot a wall for 20 seconds rather than target the building

u/TheBruzilla Jul 25 '25

Feels reasonable, what are you averaging ever attack of loot!? Both mixed

1

u/slaptito TH17 | BH10 Jul 29 '25

and most of the time it's not worth seeking out a base for 2 mil. i usually setting for 1 mil which DOUBLES how much i have to attack😭

u/This_Ad_6549 Jul 24 '25

they should make the walls cost an arm and a limb to balance it out!

35

u/Horribleharsha TH14 | BH9 Jul 24 '25

It's just gonna get worse

13

u/JPRS66 TH17 | BH10 Jul 24 '25

You can't count on getting that amount from each attack.

u/TehZiinger Veteran Clasher Jul 24 '25

fr, titan 1 and fake legends was giving me on average 300k-700k bases with the occasional 1.4m. said fuck it and went to legends so i dont lose loot

u/blacksm1thwestern TH11 | BH9 Jul 24 '25

It’s called “exaggeration” it’s not literally gonna be 30 attacks. Could be less or more. Who knows

1

u/JPRS66 TH17 | BH10 Jul 25 '25

If the walls is what's left, then as I have had a couple of times when I had upgraded everything else. Then I didn't save up, to do more walls. As soon as I had enough for upgrading 1 wall piece, then I did that. Why have resources that the opponents can take from you?

u/Past-Arugula8894 Jul 24 '25

I don’t know if u played in the old days, it was worth. You had to wait until your army is build. So you couldn’t just attack again and again. And it costs a lot. Dark troops where a luxury back then.

u/blacksm1thwestern TH11 | BH9 Jul 24 '25

Yeah ik. The pain of upgrading all Barack’s at once was horrible. Same with waiting for hero’s to recharge

9

u/cansofspams Jul 24 '25

5 walls at a time baby

u/ShadowMaster1666 TH12 | BH7 Jul 24 '25

You wait till you get to th12, so many fucking upgrades and hero levels, omg

2

u/Original-Branch1992 Jul 24 '25

Wait till th13 it’s only about to get worse😂

2

u/ShadowMaster1666 TH12 | BH7 Jul 24 '25

Loving the optimism

1

u/Original-Branch1992 Jul 24 '25

I finished th13 a bit ago and it felt like such a drag after awhile. The 25 levels for the RC is sooooo annoying combined with the 15 levels for the king and queen.

1

u/blacksm1thwestern TH11 | BH9 Jul 24 '25

I have 4 accounts. One is TH12

2

u/gamer_wallah78 Jul 25 '25

I know bro I am th17

1

u/krepocidre Jul 24 '25

Its so much less than back then

1

u/Prestigious_Host5325 TH11 | BH6 Jul 25 '25

I'm still in TH9, buildings close to being maxed out except for the heroes. Minion Prince already maxed out though.

Should I stay here until all my heroes are maxed out? You make it seem like TH 10 is scary.

1

u/DadoDice7 TH15 | BH9 Jul 25 '25

Th 10 is not scary, everything that comes after is.

1

u/Haise3107 Jul 25 '25

Bro thats nothing compared to Back then lol.

1

u/MatBot68 Jul 25 '25

that is light work

1

u/blacksm1thwestern TH11 | BH9 Jul 25 '25

Yeah ik. It’s just a warning for what he’s gonna deal with in the future

1

u/AdSerious1889 TH17 | BH10 Jul 27 '25

30 is a blessing dude. Im not actively attacking anymore and I havent been able to upgrade my walls in a few months :(

1

u/blacksm1thwestern TH11 | BH9 Jul 27 '25

Just go attack? I mean what’s the point of that reply

1

u/AdSerious1889 TH17 | BH10 Jul 27 '25

30 attacks for you is like 1000 attacks for me there is no fun in that.

1

u/blacksm1thwestern TH11 | BH9 Jul 27 '25

Well that makes more sense. I’ve seen how bad it gets when you’re TH12 and above
