My TH10 account is starting to really hum in terms of moving further up the chain. From getting a variety of defensive upgrades as well as nailing the final seasonal rewards, I feel that I’m in a pretty decent position with it. Tonight, I managed to execute a triple hitter in terms of Dark Elixir upgrades where I took my Archer Queen from 38 to 40, Barbarian King to 32 and started on an Earthquake upgrade. Part of that was due to the Practice Game rewards.
With the season coming to a close and Clash Games’ rewards being ho hum, I figured it was time to start doing a final resource push to fill up my seasonal bank on my TH10. I’m probably halfway there and am using the old Goblin Knife tactic of attempting to find big time resource bases, especially dead ones and aiming for the exterior collectors for gathering as much as I can for cheap. Just with a few attacks, I managed to make enough to get more great upgrades and some Dark Elixir.
But sometimes getting that 15k Dark Elixir can be annoying where most players might put their Drills inside their walls. In those cases, I might not get anything at all. That’s where the Practice Game came into play. And with that I managed to get the 80k necessary for the level 39 Archer Queen, popped my Book of Heroes, followed up by using my Dark Elixir Rune and started upgrading her to 40 and the other stuff as mentioned. That felt super rewarding.
What’s nice at this stage is that getting resources for Cannons and Archer Towers is pretty trivial. I’m going to run out of upgrades for normal Elixir which will allow me to dump the remaining amount all into Walls. I could do a few traps along the way, but I prefer just getting the main defenses out of the way as fast as possible.
But that does make me think that I probably will end up doing the TH11 upgrade at the end of the season. I still have an extra Rune of Gold and a Book of Building so with the right timing, I could just pop that off, get my TH11 and start working on stuff like my Laboratory, Army Camps, Barracks and especially grabbing the Grand Warden asap. Plus, now that I’ve gotten decent at using Electro Dragons, I’ll probably switch my troops over to that while I work on my other TH11.
For my main TH11, I’ve still just got too much to go before pushing into TH12. Even with 6 Builders working around the clock, the timing factor makes upgrades annoying and slow, even if I have the resources. Not to mention there’s the issue of getting more of my Walls upgraded but I think that’s only worthwhile if I don’t have anything important to upgrade. And right now, there’s just too much on my list.
On the bright side, with my Grand Warden being level 20 finally, I can focus my Elixir on other things like Troops and Spells. Walls are out of the question unless I’ve got nothing else going on and I really don’t feel like farming resources just to upgrade walls.
But I think it’ll just take me at least one more season before I’m ready for that TH12 push. It kinda sucks because I badly want the Workshop for the Siege Machines. I feel those are going to make a huge difference in a variety of attacks.
At any rate, pretty happy right now. Don’t really care about Clan Games. If I can get the rewards, great. If not, whatever. There’s just bigger fish to fry.
