The Barbarian. An icon of COC, and the 1st troop many will get to use. Its the most basic of them all, but even using something basic or easy can be used wrong.
Today ill guide you on the best ways to use the Barbarian! How to use him while attacking, farming, during war etc.
Description
"This fearless warrior relies on his bulging muscles and striking mustache to wreak havoc in enemy villages. Release a horde of Barbarians and enjoy the mayhem!"
Stats
The Barbarian is the cheapest troop in the game (elixir-wise). Only costing 25 Elixir to train at Level 1, and being the cheapest to upgrade in the lab, you would think the Barbarian is weak, but oh he isnt.
Barbarian has a good amount of HP and Damage, allowing him to absorb a bit of damage and throw it back.
The Barbarian is a ground troop, and uses a melee attack. He moves at a normal speed. Not slow, but not Sonic the Hedgehog speed either. He takes up 1 spot per troop.
Usage (General)
Barbarian is great as a cheaper alternative to the Giant. Having less health but in exchange you can bring more. He is great to soak up damage for a small amount of time. He is also alright for cleaning up once you are done with an attack, but generally Archers can do a better job.
Whenever you deploy them, dont deploy them in a huge group, because Mortars and Wizard Towers can make quick work of them like that, same with all types of Bombs and the bomb tower.
They can be used to activate Traps or the Clan Castle troops as well, saving your other more important troops.
Usage (Farming)
Barbarians are great for farming thanks to their cheap cost. They are good alone, but its best you also bring some Archers to help out in cleaning, also known as the "Barcher" strategy.
Generally, Barbarians are used for tanking while Archers destroy everything. Its a cost effective strategy that is really effective against dead bases or bases with alot of loot, but not in bases where most of the loot is in Storages.
Usage (War)
There are better troops for War than Barbarians, but that doesnt mean hes useless. Barbarians are great for cleaning up leftover buildings like Builder Huts, or to activate the Clan Castle, Teslas or Traps.
They are best used when using a Ground attack. If you are doing an Aerial Attack, then Barbarians arent recommended, since you wont be activating most traps with air attacks, and other stuff will get triggered the same way with air troops.
Veredict
Barbarians are best used as mini-tanks to soak up damage when doing Ground Attacks. Their cheap cost and quick training makes them great for Farming, but a little unreliable on War. Either way, the Barbarian is a great Troop for those who want something cheap, but powerful.
