Talk:Barbarian King/@comment-5720277-20130402113733

Is it worth getting the barbarian king, spending gems to get him?

I have 2100 dark elixir collected and can get the balance by using gems I have not used.

Or should I just stick it out and farm all the required DE?

Reason I ask is because he just looks so useless in defense, easily killed with 5 barbs and 10 archers.
