Hi Clan Mates!
Lots of people always comment that I farm pretty good. I don’t gem, and I think I can say with confidence that my base is fairly decent. I started a new farming technique and I want to share it with you all. My current record for one days’ worth of farming is 7,100,000 gold! So without further ado, here is my technique:
ARMY
6 Giants
6-8 Wall Breakers
53-65 Goblins
53-65 Barbarians
53-65 Archers.
So basically I don’t use those Giants or Wall Breakers much, they should last you about 6-10 fights. Next step is to fill one barracks with Barbs, one with Goblins, and two with Archers. You do this so while you search and battle, when you return your army should be somewhat replenished.
CUP RANGE
This is preference but I think the 1200-1300 range works the best for this strategy, but it is somewhat difficult to stay there.
BATTLES
There are only two types of bases you should be attacking. The first is AFK bases where people haven’t collected gold. This is your main target. SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH, you will be doing it a lot. I like to get 100K gold, but sometimes attack 80k or even 60k gold bases. The other, is a base with the TH outside, you attack that TH to win and get cups, since when you attack those collectors on other bases you generally lose. This is so you can stay within your desired cup range.
CUP RANGE
I personally like the 1200 – 1300 range but it is pretty difficult to get there and stay there using this method. I don’t suggest going below 1150. The reason why is because you’re looking for those AFK bases. Think how often they get attacked and win battles because people only take out the gold mines and/or elixir pumps. One of my buddies quit, and his base is exactly what I would look for to attack and he has stayed at a constant 1350-1400 since quitting.
CONCLUSION
The reason I find this an effective farming technique is because you are always searching and playing which increases your chance of finding those awesome 20 troop 300k+ gold raids. If you get kind lucky searching it isn’t uncommon to make upwards of 1m gold an hour. The only downside is that you have to play more, try to keep your cups up, and make sure you have your iPhone/iPad charger close by.
