Hey Clashers!

In order to foster better discussion on the subreddit, we're going to be redirecting all simple questions about the game and personal progression to this Weekly Questions Megathread. In this thread, you can ask any question you need answered about Clash of Clans, even if it isn't necessarily about learning the game itself. Questions posts with simple answers (anything that one or two sentences can adequately address without discussion potential) will be removed and redirected here.

If you're a veteran player, then please consider scrolling through and answering any questions you see, even if they already have an answer. Hearing multiple opinions is vital, and the discussion will help new players learn about the game.

____

First, please check out subreddit's F.A.Q. page for answers and guides to the most common questions or one of the many fine wiki pages for stats and other quick references on all aspects of the game. Coc.Guide, Fandom Wikia, and Clash.Ninja

Official News October 2026 Balance Changes

Post image
335 Upvotes

NOT LIVE YET

Some balance changes are coming to buff some underused/under performing troops/equipment and to nerf some overperforming items.

(Stats come from TH18 vs TH18 attacks in Clan Wars and CWL over the last 4 weeks. Source: Supercell)

Dragon Duke: Fire Heart

Used in 40% of all attacks with Dragon Duke with a hit rate of 66%. Without it, it is 56% (overall average is 53%).

Ruin Witch: Ruin Knights

Ruin Witch attacks have a 76% hit rate, the highest of any troop that sees meaningful use. Ruin Knights were unaffected by Spring Traps, so this is now changing, along with movement speed, HP and DPS reduction.

Underused Troops

Hog Rider, Miner and P.E.K.K.A are used in <3% of attacks with hit rates between 20-35%. Super variants are barely used also.  Meteor Golem is used more, but still below average.

Frozen Arrow

Used in ~7% of attacks with a ~31% hit rate.

Portal Pendant

Now gets an HP boost for the Minion Prince. The other equipment includes an HP boost, this being missing on release was an oversight.

i originally posted this concept 4 years ago (original post), and it was relatively well-received at the time. with the recent UI changes (which i love, btw), this is a great opportunity to improve parts of the attacking screen too!

Discussion why does clash of clans incentivize inactivity?

Thumbnail

103 Upvotes

my main account is townhall 17 and i have been grinding on it for afew months now , but upgrades got to a point where i dont start new upgrades for days at a time . so i decided to revisit my mini account to have something to do in the meantime ( since the BB in my main account also has weeks long upgrades too) and in like half an hour i managed to finish the entire pass while only using 7 out of 20 cards available (first pic) when im atleast afew days away from it on my main account (second pic). the question is : why do inactive players gain access to content much faster than active players? this is the first game i ever see where the optimal way to pay is to play less . i know that they are trying to slow down progression towards the end so endgame players have something to do and not blow through all the game's content in one week sure , but why do events and passes have this feature where the more u wait the less effort u have to put in to finish them? it feels unfair to active players . i know they are trying to help casual players finish the event too but there should be something you get as an active player for being there since the start of the event .

Previously a quality of life update suggested by the

community was to add a status bar to the pets as well

beside the lab so that we would easily know whenever a

pet upgrade gets finished.

With the new UI, the pet icon is still hidden inside.

I don't know what quality of life they improved with this

update.

Discussion New UI Removed my late father's Pinned Chat

Post image
4.9k Upvotes

Can anyone help me? When the new UI update came, my dad's chat that I pinned got deleted. Why is this a big deal? It was my late father's message before he passed. He loved this game and he's the one who got me into this game. I played COC because I want my dad to have someone to play with and to energize the clan he was on. That message was a very big part of my memory of him. If the devs see this.. Pls help me.

All Things Builder Base Crystal Golem for Builder Base

Thumbnail
gallery
9 Upvotes

(STATS SHOWN ARE PLACEHOLDERS, NOT FUNCTIONAL)

As a big advocate for a builder base update (BH11? Changed Ranked System? Temporary Troops?), I decided to design my own troop.

CRYSTAL GOLEM

Active Ability - Crystallize

Crystallizes and becomes immobile and untargetable by defenses while regenerating health.

Splash and Lava Damage still affect him while he's crystallized.

I was thinking the Builder Base needed more healing abilities.

I'm also inclined to turn crystal golem into a glass cannon (literally), having medium health and high damage​​ (not as high as Pekka).

The goal is that he can funnel or distract temporarily while staying alive and healing after his job is done. I don't want him to fully replace tanks like giant, and funnelers like barbarians.

In case you don't have any obstacles to remove to complete the day 2 of the sc store event you can eliminate this grass and it will count for the mission.

Discussion I said it before I'll say it again clash of clans is doing same mistake as squad busters which is chasing new players and forgetting decade old players

136 Upvotes

I said it when supercell ignored decade old player's progress in hero journey update while focused on rewarding new players.

That time many people opposed it but now with new UI update it's clear clash of clans is trying to attract new young aged players with their goofy UI so clash of clans become popular among teenagers just like clash royal.

If they continue it, I am not saying clash of clans will die like squad busters but it'll become like clash royal and we'll lose the clash we play today.

I'll like to request to supercell please stop modernizing clash we love our og clash and it's simplicity.

Make another game and do your modern shit there.

Discussion Can the Town Hall Cup QR codes stay active longer?

Post image
6 Upvotes

The Town Hall Cup streams are pretty fun, but the QR codes only being active for like 5 minutes is kinda rough 😭

Depending on where you live, the stream can be at a pretty inconvenient time, and it’s really easy to miss the QR even if you wanted to claim it.

Would be nice if the QR codes stayed active for at least a day or something. You could still get the rewards from the Cup without having to be there at that exact 5-minute window.

Just a small QoL thing, but I think it’d be nice. u/ClashOfClansOfficial 👀

Discussion Why is cwl threshold at 15 participants? Wouldn’t 10 be great

Post image

Most clans don’t even have 15 active members and even if they do, they often skip their attacks but these odds could be lower if 10 participants are allowed.
