Hey guys, as we all know, at high level play your heroes and dark troops make a huge difference. With that said we have a special treat for you today:
Here are some great tips from Kev on Dark Elixir Farming to save you time and make your raids most efficient. With max level 40 heroes and almost 6.5 million DE raided in his Heroic Heist achievement he is a master thief when it comes to DE. So heed his advice along with some hard work and you'll be well on your way to keeping that DE storage full and heroes upgraded.

Golgon asked for a guide on DE raiding, but
this is not a simple thing to do as every base is different and we are all at
different levels. However, here's some things I use to do and can be used as
things to consider
1. Use a cheap and quick army to raid with,
for example 8 Giants, 8 Wallbreakers, 24 Goblins, 60 Archers and 60 Barbs uses
200 spaces and takes about 20 mins to make, so you can raid more often in the
time you have.
2. Base selection, don't be afraid to use
next button to get the right base. I looked for a minimum of 1000 DE and
without xbows where possible.
3. Check where the DE is, as often the DE
store will be in the centre of the base and the DE drills in separate
compartments. Don't target the DE Store if there are empty xbows, as the store
is likely to be empty too. The collectors have a glass container on the top to
show how full they are, target your forces appropriately.
4. Check what you are raiding for, you cant
go for Gold, Elix , DE
5. The attack, as per all attacks, try to
draw CC and kill them in a corner with few archers. They probably know you're
after their DE, so check for Giant Bombs and traps, drop just 1/few Barbs to
test way is clear. Deploy Giants and couple of Wallbreakers at a time to break
a path way in with some Archers and Barbs behind. Don't bunch them up too much
as Mortars can kill a pile of weak armies with the splash damage. Once the DE
store pathway is there, then drop the Goblins, just a couple to start with to
ensure no further bombs on route.
6. With the latest update, the Town Hall
now also stores DE, so if it's on the outside or on route to the DE store, its
worth taking out (especially as it will also help in keeping your trophies up)
7. Save your Hero's to the end of the
attack and use them briefly to maybe take out a drill, boost it and end the
game saving as much life as possible. It will take 20 minutes to rebuild the
army, so if you don't use it all, you'll have him for the next attack. However,
if the DE Store has over 2k DE then it may be worth sending him in earlier to
help ensure you get the loot.
8. Remember to keep your camps building the
next set of armies before you raid, so by the time you've finished raiding, you'll
saved a few minutes and maybe get an extra attack in.
You can also get DE in your Loot Bonus if
you in Crystal league, not sure if this is worth it with the new update as
you'll need to get 50%+ to get a portion of the bonus.
With my TH10 base, I was collecting up to
200k DE before the previous AQ/BK had finished (7 days), so it is possible to
have your hero on constant upgrade (but I never used DE troops) and I also
opted out of War as I had a hero on upgrade.
