I slowed down a bit on both my accounts as things grew busier for me and I wanted to focus on my novel. But I managed to get through some nice upgrades and figured it was time to write about my current situation in this game.
My main account made some great progress recently. I executed my plan to get my Grand Warden to level 20 so now I can focus all my Elixir on research upgrades. And there’s a lot especially with spells that are behind and a few troops that are costly. I figure once my Lava Hounds are done I’ll probably dunk my Elixir into Balloons since I use them in both accounts’ armies as well as donated troops.
In addition, some of the big upgrades like Bomb Towers and Inferno Towers all finished up. So I started both Air Sweepers which will be great because I won’t have to worry about them again (or at least until there’s a new TH level that possibly might grant more levels). Also, I started up a Hidden Tesla upgrade and the Multi Mortar. My next target is another Mortar. Since Hidden Teslas take a good chunk of time, I didn’t want to leave my Town Hall too vulnerable. So the plan is to do one Hidden Tesla at a time then move in a circle to upgrade other key defenses like Archer Towers and Cannons since those require more than one upgrade at this Town Hall level.
I’m thinking with the right timing, I should have a ton of Builders ready once the season ends and I’ll gain access to my season bank. Then from there I’ll see what’s left. I might use 5 builders for various defense upgrades that take time and my remaining resources (gold, elixir) for Walls. I might try for a spell or troop. Also, I need to factor in my Archer Queen and Barbarian King.
In addition, I’m slowly building up my Dark Elixir for another Archer Queen level. I could always pop off my Rune of Dark Elixir to start my Archer Queen but I’m waiting a little while so I can get at least a second builder available to do both Heroes at the same time. It will mean I can’t do an Archer Queen walk but if I use all my resources simultaneously and drain what I have, I won’t have to worry for the rest of the season.
My old account is doing decently too but the hard part is just getting enough time to grab all the upgrades. Meaning it takes a while. The big thing is that a lot of the big defenses are done and I’m left with traps, walls, cannons and Archer Towers. None of them cost particularly much so I’m not concerned about those. Instead, I am trying to farm up Dark Elixir as my Archer Queen now is level 38. Since there’s a big Book of Heroes that’s looking delicious at the end of the season rewards, I’m trying to get my cards lined up where I can upgrade her to level 39 with Dark Elixir that I collect, pop the book for the instant complete, pop the Rune and have two builders available for both heroes. After that, all my Dark Elixir will go into upgrading my Barbarian King and some into Dark Elixir troops that I may consider using for TH11.
But the one thing I need to do beforehand is start using the Goblin Knife technique. I can’t use Super Troops just yet but I would like to use a Training Potion to farm out resources to build up my season bank. Then once the season ends, I should have enough resources to do a big round of wall upgrades. Whatever is left over, I might consider pushing a TH11 depending on how much I have left to upgrade or I might wait until the next season just to get the building cost down.
Tonight, the next major event is Clash Games. The rewards for these events aren’t great compared to the season gold pass but having two accounts will make getting access to these rewards really good. At the very least, I hope to get something useful like a rune because I get gem starved easily.
Also, the last leg of the season achievements will open up soon. My main account is done outside of getting some gems for the achievement. But my secondary account needs a small boost to get the skin and rune at the end of the journey.
Regardless, I hope to get one account to TH12 soonish just because those Siege Machines seem invaluable. I can’t do a lot of the advanced attacks without at least a Wall Wrecker and I think once my old account hits TH11, I will eventually need a Dark Elixir army like Ice Golems + Bowlers + Witches to take on certain bases. Without the Wall Wrecker, I’m just going to get my ass whooped and be forced to use an unpredictable Wallbreaker.
But the grind for TH12 is going to feel terrible I can sense. The cost just keeps getting larger and I have to wonder how long it’ll take to get upgrades once I reach that stage. That’s why I think sticking with TH11 for a bit longer is critical. I can’t say if I’ll leave my walls as is but at the very least I think one more season might be needed before I can make that jump. And less I can use Sneaky Goblins to farm up resources but that just feels terrible.
