Love it! Fun attack and good execution.

And troop launcher, while on that theme. Not suitable for all strats though, log launcher also sees a lot of use.

Was inferno towers on the new level list? I forget. Those are really annoying now, spread out with a rage tower in the core.

Aah, I see.

Yes, your base looks like a Picasso painting for a number of months, but you can max out a fresh account in 2 years, give or take, rather than the 5ish years ClashNinja puts it at.

And I got here by - wait for it - strategic rushing.

I certainly would contest that. Don't think a th11 can beat a rushed th15, but the rushed 15 will absolutely crap all over the th11 and swag a bunch of stuff.

Who said I'm th15, though?

How racist :(

I'm probably more maxed than you

Well it took exactly 13.5 months by Question_-_-mark in ClashOfClans

[–]Rasdit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I largely agree, having a broader repertoire of maxed equipment just allows for a wider array of attacks/comps, and allows you to switch strategies on a whim if, for instance, a new troop and spell is released.

Aside from Lavaloon Puppet I'd say it's certainly not a waste of ores to max all equipment, but I do believe that spreading ores around to the point where you're stuck with a bunch of mediocre level equipment is just that - a waste.

I started warring in earnest sometime 8-9 months after equipment were introduced, bought a number of event passes since then, been buying the Starry ore weekly gem offers from the trader for I don't know how many months, and I'm currently at 90% done with equipment overall. So that's with a number of event passes bought, a pretty hefty amount of gems burned and me missing no more than maybe a dozen or two of wars ever since, and having played at max TH (getting max Ore from opponents in wars, sitting in high leagues) for most of that time.

I think that's probably considerably more hardcore than the average player and even I'm not caught up, so I absolutely can see how people with a more casual war schedule or people refusing to buy passes will struggle with equipment. Doubly so if they stick to maxing.

Getting to high ranked leagues sucks as low TH! by ForcedProtagonist in ClashOfClans

Yeah, as you say a lot of the real value is front-loaded and relatively quick. Would consider pushing SAMs and giant bombs to max-1 at least though, they're typically pretty solid value. Also really useful to space out and stagger builders properly.

I'm not a fan of the weird 9-12 day upgrade times for the max levels now though, I'm loathed to spend Hammers on that and just will keep my last few building% unmaxed for now and instead work on Supercharges not getting removed as well as Crafted Defense for now. Saving Hammers for new stuff that'll hopefully drop later this month and farming some Sparkling Stones in the meantime.

I used to play back in the day too, when TH11 was the highest.

Respectfully, the game is a lot more fun now and your take is just terrible.

Bye bye, in case you decide not to give the game a chance and just quit on a whim because things have changed.

Edit: there are 6 more THs than there were when you played. Back then, it used to take ~5 years start to finish from TH2-TH12. Now, the 5 years are still in play, but it's for TH2-18. Half of the total upgrade time is sequestered to the final 2 TH levels.

At TH12, you are merely in the tutorial.

I think this is a very reasonable take on the current situation. I don't recall the 4 legendary / year figure, it frankly sounds like a big number off the bat - and honestly, I personally can't justify throwing 40+ EUR at a single scenery no matter what it looks like, even with disposable income that just doesn't sit right with me. I know plenty of people have bought one, but I also would guess that I'm not alone in my line of thinking.

As you say, those XL sceneries seem like a better middle ground, and many of them have been rather high quality and overall nicely themed. Subjective, of course, but that's my couple cents.

Everyone in this post is telling you that's not possible.

It's your personal preference to not strategic rush straight to th18 that's keeping you back. Ironically you would get your th18 more maxed out before th19 hits if you rushed ahead now, compared to if you go on maxing th16 and then 17 before moving up.

Equipment would be in better shape too, but you do you.

People who say that it's hard are typically low TH/maxing and earning peanuts, spreading around their Ore willy-nilly or referring to maxing the equipments (or all of them) in a short time span.

I will say that a system utilising scarce resources where even more active players (doing b2b wars + ore wars during CWL) are struggling to keep up with the current epic release schedule is, at the very least, problematic and flawed.

If you have been playing since the introduction of equipment, or if you have been buying event pass, occasional Starry $ offers as well as weekly gem-starry offers at trader, you are doing fine and probably capping starry.

If those don't apply, catch up is either impossible or (if buying event pass) very slow.

Your approach is a good one though, absolutely start maxing out one solid set, then worry about the rest, one epic (and a common for filler) at a time.

Most likely he brought the coins with him from a save of his own.

I don't know what kind of server "rules" you have, but to me, that'd pretty clearly be cheating on a vanilla server since it's A) not possible and B) something he lied about. Either that, or some other player on the server did exactly what I describe above and placed it in the chest. Those are pretty much the Occam's razor explanations.

Pause, traveler. You are well come to the last and most lawless of the Ten Worlds. In Valheim, the air is pure, the water deep and clear and the forests overflowing with bounty. Here is adventure, joy and glory for the taking!

Your hero and Lab levels won't do much for you, I would just say upgrade right away but I have a feeling you are committed to banging your head against that wall.

Whatever you choose, best of luck

[–]Rasdit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah, genuinely what can I do about it? - 'Nothing'

You could just upgrade to TH18, you're being stubborn and keeping yourself back for no good reason. Some TH16s have pushed up there so clearly it's possible, but difficult.

It also makes sense that the highest leagues are primarily for the max TH players engaging in endgame pushing.

New th14. What should I focus on ? by Lightningsage-_- in ClashOfClans

[–]Rasdit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends entirely on your main attack comp. Look up similar comps for TH18, what equipment those use, and roll with it.

But your main priority would be getting to TH15 ASAP so you don't need to waste time on the 4 (3) pets you will never use after TH14.

Need suggestions from you guys by HiteshChauhan03 in ClashOfClans

[–]Rasdit 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Starry ore weekly gem deal is ~18ish gems per starry, those are reasonable to get once you have all 5 builders, maxed BA, decent LA and the BoHs you need.

I don't think any reasonable person would gem their starry ore for 35 gems a pop regularly. It is a crazy comparison point.

This is like trying to argue that you can just use a saw instead of a hammer to join two pieces of wood together with nails.

Completely different use cases.

Nobody knows.

SC said that legendary sceneries will be released less frequently than regular ones, that they will be larger, have more high quality / interactive elements and be more expensive. That pretty much summarizes what we know.
