Don't forget that building takes 1:30 to regen fully. And the extra attacks are weak as hell so pretty useless in pvp in ways. But it is still very effective for growth. Xtal trains as well.
That's not in attack builds favour as it plunders extremely low, both builds have access to that. Again the spy trick is the same, extremely low plunder. Useful in pvp blitzes though. A skimming hansel will ALWAYS beat a skimming troop build of same building levels
Attack builds doing 2 hits then 5 min regen does make you more plunder. But do you not have a life and do this? What I have not seen mentioned is that hansels make 30-35% of their gold from eb end bonus. Their spy actions (scout/assn) is what adds to this, as attack builds end bonus is only based off their plunder. So my other attack acct I do half unloads to save me time and lessen potential gold loss. On the matter of HTE, I see huge attack accounts (very little spy att) unload full bar of assn's. Not only does this kill eb quicker, it is taking gold away from others to make. My att alt tested only 10 assn actions on HTE. End result was you only make less than 1m an action. Others could have made 250-450 M for every 1 of those assn's. And let's not forget that hansels do a hell of a better job at knocking out scout/assn bars than att builds who tend to keep low spy att. That reminds me. A large number of att builds put up massive sdt's because they know the harm a small hansel can do them, and never get caught if they are good. This does not reduce plunder gold, just reduces the potential plunder gained if had put up att buildings (pure EB fairy build). A hansel used to be called that as had 1 att building, and all the rest spy. In lat few years, it's been defined as less than 25% att buildings (adt don't count). This calling nowadays as PS1 is crap.
Actually an equal build hansel doing 2 Att 3 assn would EASILY make more every 5 mins (when eb bonus is factored in)
Go shygirl Hansels ftw. Hansels all the way. Edit: nice 2nd forum post. Spies need not skim,useful for war and pvp and who doesnt love a spy build
In order to max plunder attack builds need to skim troops as well as spies although spies aren't as big a deal for attack builds. Hansels see very little difference skimming troops but see a huge difference skimming spies.
Don't listen to this tool Bad-Advice. His name applies to everything that they type on forums. Most likely in RL also. Sad, very sad
Wow, another 'vet' that knows nothing. You realize that at that point in the game, you should have a sturdy set of equipment and an abundance of allies, right? That means static strength. Not to mention that attack pots overpower defense pots by a handsome amount. So with all that extra power on your side, you should be able to defeat quite a bit of opponents in your league with those final 13 attacks assuming you've already weakened them, if not, your attacks are basically just as strong as your final 25% would be without those 13 attacks. Sacrificing 1 building space for that purpose is damn well worth it, in any style of game play. Whether that be player vs player or player vs epic battle or player vs mission.
Unless you have huge static stats compared to your overall stats having those extra attacks can be a huge issue in wars unless you are quick. More times you can be attacked and more leaking. 39 attacks are great for ebs however.
