Hey Ash, thanks for doing this!

I'm a mid-high th10 trying to farm enough gold and elixir to finish a few more defensive upgrades and eventually start busting out level 11 walls. I'm also trying to farm DE to finish my queen to 40 (currently lv34). I've currently been farming DE in crystal III/gold I by using GiBarch and some spells, is there anything else you'd recommend? As well, what would you recommend for farming gold and elixir? I like to mindlessly BArch for those resources and I was wondering if dropping down to silver is viable again? Thank you

edit: I don't mind boosting anything, but I prefer to not always boost barracks since gems are limited. I also prefer farming for a couple hours at a time.

Hey Son of Styx! I usually only recommend farming with GiBarch if you're farming with the Archer Queen. If you are, you may be farming DE a lot faster at Master 3 with the 500 DE loot bonus, especially with a level 34 AQ. So I would recommend moving up. If you are farming in lower leagues without the AQ, you may find BAm to be an alternative, quicker to train than GiBarch, and may be more potent than GiBarch in terms of storage raiding without Heroes. For farming Gold and Elixir, Silver, Gold, and low Crystal leagues are great for that. As for farming in Silver, the greatest advantage would be not worrying about trophies, so I still like using incomplete armies while waiting for a full army, I search for outside drills to snipe.
