Clash of Clans – Strategies for Leaving Gold and Elixir Uncollected to Prevent Loss During Raids

clash-of-clans

In Clash of the Clans, to minimize loss of resources when your base is attacked is it better to store loot in clan castle and not collect it? Also is it better to leave resources in elixir collectors/mines for as long as possible before collecting it (at what point is it necessary)?

Best Answer

It's better to collect. You can defend your stores much easier than you can all your collectors.

And of course, spend it as soon as possible. Queue up troops etc.

Also, an advantage of having a side town hall ( in a corner with no defenses ) is quite often it will get sniped ( someone will just drop a few archers and destroy just the town hall ) and you will get a shield for 12 hours which will protect your resources.

Clash-of-clans – the most effective raiding strategy/loadout to earn resources

A strategy that works for me is the standard giant-healer attack. Find and take out the air defense close to you by distracting the defenses with a couple troops, use a few wall-breakers to break the wall. Then send as many giants as needed to take out the air defense. Then you can deploy the healer and the giants will destroy most of the defenses with nearly no trouble, provided no air defenses. However, problems can often arise with this strategy. The wall breakers could die, the giants could switch to a different target. In the event of this, I find a healing spell as a good way to keep the giants alive until it is safe to deploy the healer. Place it in the spot the giants will go, or in the center of them if there attacking. For clan castle troops, a few troops will do the job. Usually a lightning spell can quickly kill a mob of archers/barbarians. Even if the air defense is still there, deploy the healer as far from it as possible. YOU NEED THOSE GIANTS! Anyway, once the defenses somewhere are taken out, deploy archers or barbs to take out some stuff. If something is out of range of a defense, shoot it down. I have used this strategy for a month, and it is very effective. I have not lost one battle since I started doing this. Understand this works differently for everyone. Hope this helps.

Clash of Clans – How Much Gold and Elixir Can Be Stolen in Raids?

Until you reach Town Hall 5, 20% from your gold/elixir can be stolen from the storages. The cap for this is 200k. From TH6 and onwards, this percentage drops by 2% for each TH level. From TH7 and above the cap increases with 50k for each TH level.

So for clarity and completeness (and no calculations):

TH Level    % Available to be Stolen    Cap    Storage Amount to Reach Cap
1-5         20%                         200k   1.000M
6           18%                         200k   1.1111M
7           16%                         250k   1.5625M
8           14%                         300k   2.1428M
9           12%                         350k   2.9167M
10          10%                         400k   4.0000M
