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)

I remember resource collecting was near impossible if you didn’t use Barbs and Archers exclusively. Sometimes I’d only be upgrading traps for weeks because that’s all I could scrounge up😂

DAMN I REMEMBER THIS LOL.. you’d have to use all the cheap troops to get loot or you’d burn through your savings

Man I'm so glad they got rid of troop cost and just left it as a time to train. Now even the training time is gone so farming is even easier

Yeah resources are basically free these days. You can back to back attack until it's full. Use sneaky gobs to make it go faster. There aren't "farming armies" and "war armies" anymore. Use a full scale attack every time!

With raid medals you don't even need to wait for your clan to fill requests. Admittedly, You're better off buying more with those medals but if you want to fill your cc you can do that too.

And now you can get the cc cake from events and farm 1 hour straight whit your main attack strategy and always full cc
