Tips and Tricks for Beginners to Set Up Your Base

These are part of your Base; Headquarters, Resource Buildings, Defensive Structures and Statue Workshop.

How to set up Headquarters (HQ)

As it is, the most important part of your base design is how you place your headquarters. This is because your main goal is to protect it at all cost. Though there are different base types that call for different placements, however, there are general rules of thumb that need to be followed:

• Ensure that 70 to 80% of your defenses are within the boundary of the headquarters. This helps to prevent you from manipulating your troops into a spot that makes them vulnerable to attack easily
• Ensure you do not place your Rocket Launcher very close to the Headquarter. This makes it possible for your Rocket Launcher’s unseen spot to cover the entirety of the HQ there by rendering them worthless against Warriors coming for an attack.
• Additionally, Flamethrowers should be within the range of the HQ always. Ofcourse, there are no better places to put them. A quick tip that I have experienced: if they are just beside the HQ such that they are in contact, they can go against Warriors on all sides.

Keys for Resource Building

Resources are currencies that are used to buy and upgrade all you need as a Boom Beach Player. You can take a look at how many and types of resources you have by looking at the top right side of your screen. Here is it

Resources are mainly obtained by raiding enemy bases. Destroying headquarters earns valuable rewards. Aim for achievements like Timber Takeover, Quarry Raid, Iron Will, and Spoils of War to earn up to 240 diamonds by collecting 40,000,000 of each resource.

• Gold - this is obtained by clearing the bases of enemy, completing events. You can use it to replenish your troop, submarine and upgrade armory as well as as to purchase items from traders.
• Wood - You can get this by finding trees on the map. You could also spend gold in order to turn them into wood. You can get Wood through conquest, raiding the bases of other players. Primarily, wood is used to make upgrades, especially in the early part of the game. A tip - prioritize Sawmill upgrade
• stone - stone is gotten also by raiding other players’ bases, clearing computer-generated bases as well as completing operations. Stone is used primarily to upgrade structures in your base camp.
• Diamond - Generally, Diamonds are obtained by completing a particular operation and when you raid enemy bases. You may find Diamond in chests, warships, and Mega Crab. Diamonds are used to speed up upgrades, quickly train troops or buy resources from other traders

How to Train and Upgrading Troops Efficiently

There are different troops that can be deployed while playing Boom Beach. This Boom Beach Beginner Guide comes with Defense and Offense Troops setting that aid your defending and attacking. These are the Defense

Offense

On a general note, there is no certainty for best upgrading order, but you are at liberty to make an upgrade at your terms. To upgrade multiple troops simultaneously looks overwhelming, but on the long run, it pays off -

Warriors

This has been known to be a very powerful army in Boom Beach: War Strategy Game

Order of upgrade:

• Gunboat, for additional GBE, which could be the deciding factor between deploying an extra Shock Bomb or a Critter Box.
• For the Landing Crafts, ensure you get them to level 8 first, after which you take it to level 11, next 14, 17 and then 20. Try to do 3 upgrades on a Landing Craft, as soon as they get to the levels already stated here, then begin working on the next Landing Craft.
• The Gunboat weaponry which remains. It is recommended that you upgrade at least two, or all the three if possible; Flare, Medkit and Smoke Screen.

Hooka 

This is the medics you need for this game - Heavies and Zookas

Order of upgrade:

• Upgrade your Landing Crafts strategically, aiming for even-numbered levels, as these provide space for an additional Heavy or Zooka. Prioritize upgrading your Zooka-carrying crafts first, as they benefit more from the extra space. Level them up in pairs before moving on to the next craft.
• Heavies and Zookas—what else would you expect? If you prefer a tankier Hooka composition, prioritize upgrading Heavies first. For higher DPS, focus on Zookas instead. Always upgrade them alongside your Landing Crafts rather than waiting until all LCs are maxed out.

Defenses

In this article, it is shared that neglecting defense means your base will become an easy target for almost anyone who comes across it. that This not only increases the risk of frequent raids but also reduces your chances of earning Intel and Diamonds from successful defenses or holding off Hammerman’s attacks. Defenses like Stock Launcher, Boom Cannon, Rocket Launcher, Flamethrower, morta etc

• Shock Launcher

Upgrading Shock Launchers is a smart investment, as they can stun multiple troops simultaneously, rendering them immobile for up to three seconds. With a fire rate of five seconds per shot, they effectively disrupt enemy advances. Your base can support up to two Shock Launchers, making them a crucial part of your defense.

• Boom Cannon

·Boom Cannons are a major threat to high-health troops like Scorchers and Tanks, delivering massive damage per shot. They can eliminate lower-level Heavies or Tanks instantly and significantly weaken a Scorcher. With a maximum of five Boom Cannons on your base, their combined firepower averages more than one devastating shot per second when fully operational.
