===Druid Balance Changes! - Oct 2, 2024===
Hello Chief! We wanted to give you a heads-up that we are planning on making some Balance Changes to Druid. We're aiming to implement those changes as fast as possible in a future game maintenance.
We know that Clan War Leagues are starting this week so we are trying as much as possible to get this done either before CWL starts or right at the beginning, in order to avoid impacting your Clan's performance during CWL. Also with this, we want to give you as much time as we can for you to prepare and be aware that we are implementing those changes soon. You can see below the planned list of changes for the Druid!
====List of Balance Changes====
Troop	Troop Level	Healing per second	Healing per second NEW	Evolve time sec	Evolve time sec NEW	HP 	HP NEW
Druid	1 	110 	65 	30 	25 	- 	-
Druid	2 	120 	70 	30 	25 	- 	-
Druid	3 	130 	75 	30 	25 	- 	-
Druid	4 	140 	80 	30 	25 	- 	-
Bear 	1 	- 	- 	- 	- 	3800	1900
Bear 	2 	- 	- 	- 	- 	4000	2000
Bear 	3 	- 	- 	- 	- 	4200	2100
Bear 	4 	- 	- 	- 	- 	4400	2200
====Why are we making these changes?====
We've noticed an amazing trend in how players are using the Druid. Mass Druid attacks have become incredibly powerful, outperforming other strategies. This was brought to our attention through player feedback and confirmed by our battle balance data. The Druid's ability to enable these overpowered tactics is the main factor, so we’re making adjustments to keep the Druid balanced but still viable.
We'll continue monitoring game data and appreciate your feedback as we consider further balance changes if needed.
===September Update: Full Patch Notes - Sep 9, 2024===
====Clan Notice Board and Search!====
Have you ever dreamed of a better way to recruit new members for your Clan or find a perfect Clan that feels just like home? Worry no more, Chief! Clans can now post on the Notice Board, which will be a much more detailed and fun way to browse Clans. Here are the details:
*The Clan Leader and Co-leaders can write a custom message on the Notice Board or use Clan Description as the text of the Notice. In addition, the background image of the notice can be customized.
*Players looking for Clans will be presented with Notices from the Clans that fit them the most, including criteria of other Clan members' activity and other various aspects that the game will take into consideration automatically.
*Changing Language or Family-Friendly Clan Settings will unpublish the Clan Notice, and the Notice will have to be re-published. There will be a confirmation dialog before settings are changed and the Notice gets unpublished.
*Players can still search for Clans with their name or Clan Tag and with Advanced Options.
====Magic Snacks Are Here!====
*Available during the September Treasure Hunt Event, we are introducing a new, more fun way to reward players with temporary boosts to their builders, heroes, troops, equipment, and research!
*Magic Snacks will only be available during the Treasure Hunt Event for now, and can only be won through the Event's Chests. During this Event, players can win up to 3 Magic Snacks every 48 hours.
*Magic Snacks expire within 24 hours and cannot be accumulated or sold like magic items, so you better use them fast!
*They are stored in their own dedicated storage, which will become available when the very first Magic Snack is obtained.
*There will be a total of six Magic Snacks in this update: Builder Bite, Study Soup, Mighty Morsel, Power Pancakes, Training Treat, and Clan Castle Cake.
====Treasure Hunt: Coming on September 11-30!====
*There is a new, fun way to obtain more rewards from your Multiplayer attacks!
*In the upcoming Treasure Hunt, we will introduce players to a new concept of looking for Chests in their attacks and obtaining those for extra rewards!
*Players will be hunting down Chests, which, after attacking, can be opened up for extra rewards containing Resources, Decorations, Skins, Hero Equipment, Magic Snacks, and Magic Items, including Hammers!
*Players can encounter four different types of Chests while trying to open them: Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary.
*However, not all highlighted treasure locations will contain a Chest! Some will contain a decoy, and players must search for the real one.
*Up to three Chests will be available at the event's start and will refresh every 48 hours.
====It is time to SUPERCHARGE!====
Are you done with all your building upgrades? Then it's time to SUPERCHARGE! Push your buildings to the limit by upgrading them further to reach their maximum level!
*Starting in Town Hall 16, Supercharges are new optional extra buffs for some buildings. They differ from normal upgrades in a few ways:
**Small - They are shorter, cost less, and give smaller stat buffs.
**Max Level Only - They can only be done when the building has reached its maximum level.
**Temporary - When a new level for a building is released, all previous supercharges made at that level are depleted, and those buildings lose their buffs.
*Each building can be Supercharged up to three times, each time buffing a different stat adding a more powerful lightning visual effect to your building!
*To Supercharge your buildings you need to employ one of your Builders and spend a few resources.
*There's a currently an known bug with Supercharges: When you start a Supercharge upgrade, the building is not disabled. This mean that the upgrading Defense will still defend while upgrading and both Collectors & Mines will still generate Resources We will be releasing in the future an optional update to fix this.
Enjoy the extra power and become a Supercharger!
====Introducing Legendary Scenery: Clash of Dragons!====
*This scenery will feature incredibly detailed large-scale regions and elements that have never been seen before in Clash of Clans. Some additional details and visual features are transition animations, and cut scenes that are hand-made for these sceneries to make them extra special and unique. We will also roll out a behind-the-scenes video explaining the process of creating such detailed and elaborate cosmetic content.
*These kinds of scenery will only come out occasionally as they take an order of magnitude more time than the regular-size Sceneries that players have come to expect in the game. In terms of the physical size of Legendary Sceneries, they are over six times the size of the previous sceneries that we released in the game.
====Hard Mode Changes====
*Common Hero Equipment levels are now capped at level 15.
*Epic Hero Equipment levels are now capped at level 21.
*Attacking Hero DPS -5% (from -15%).
*Attacking Hero HP -5% (from -10%).
*Defense building DPS +5% (no change).
====Quality of Life improvements====
*Tactical Overview is now enabled in Village Edit Mode, as well as while scouting in Wars.
*All Puppet Equipment now has a button to see the troop that will be summoned.
*When trying to purchase something for gems, the pop-up prompting you to purchase gems will now detail how many gems you were missing.
*The War Map will now display the donated amount and total capacity of each player's Clan Castle troops instead of the word “Donate“.
*The Single Player and Practice tabs will now display your progress on the tab itself.
*A pop-up will now ask you to confirm your signing up for the Legend League.
*Seasonal Obstacles are now bundled by the corresponding season in the layout editor inventory.
*A confirmation popup is now shown if trying to exit Clan settings with unsaved changes.
*The Clan popup is no longer closed after editing settings. ‘My Clan' tab is shown instead with updated settings.
*ZZZ playing from Worker Huts is now consistent with whether or not that builder is actively working.
====Balance Changes====
*As previously noted in our notice post, the September Balance Changes are now here, along with the update! If you forgot what they were, you can find them right HERE.
====Economy Balance Changes====
*We would like to give players more rewards for battling! So, to do that, we increased the Dark Elixir rewards in the League bonus for most Leagues, and we increased the percentage of resources that players can loot from storages! This means that you can steal more from Storages from others, but be careful - this also applies to your own Storages!
====Bug Fixes====
*Magic Mirror Clones no longer receive damage boost from Invisibility vials or any equipment.
*Clones from Magic Mirror no longer affect the re-deployment time of Archer Queen.
*Clones from Magic Mirror no longer receive passive DPS buffs from equipment.
*Fixed an issue where some player names could contain invisible characters. These characters are no longer allowed to be used.
*Fixed an issue where performing an attack that completes the Star Bonus consumes Shield twice.
*Google Play Games PC: Clan Castle and Siege Machines now share the same shortcut key.
===June Update: Full Patch Notes - Jun 18, 2024===
====Welcome the Builder's Apprentice!====
*Builder's Apprentice is a brand-new character found in Town Hall 10 and above, costing 500 Gems to recruit permanently. Once Builder's Apprentice arrives in your Village, he will wait patiently for your orders at the Town Hall.
*The Builder's Apprentice is able to speed up Builder Upgrades of the player's choosing for 1 hour every 23 hours.
*Once the Builder's Apprentice has been assigned to help, the 23-hour cooldown begins.
*Upgrading the Apprentice (up to Level 8) makes him more efficient in that one hour and the upgrade progresses further in that hour.
* does not affect Builder's Apprentice.
*Builder's Apprentice can only be used in the Home Village and cannot be assigned to help Builders in the Forge.
====Introducing New Troop: Druid!====
*The Druid is the very first unique new troop that starts off as a ground healer. However, after a few seconds, or if knocked out, the Druid will shapeshift into a Bear!
*Healing details: Ground, Jumps.
**Healing - Long-range projectile that bounces to other friendly troops nearby. The healing hits up to 5 troops but will not bounce to Siege Machines. It can target both ground and air troops, and the projectile can bounce between air and ground troops.
*Bear details: Ground, slow movement speed, does not Jump, and has high HP.
**Melee Attack - Melee range, targets defenses.
*Only after the shapeshifted form loses all HP will the Druid be permanently knocked out.
*The Druid is unlocked in Town Hall 14, requires Dark Elixir Barracks level 11, and comes with 4 levels: 2 at Town Hall 14 and 1 for Town Hall 15 and 16 each.
====Attack Preparation: Tactical Overview!====
*You can now select the defender's buildings before deploying your first troop, spell, or Hero.
*Selecting a building will also highlight all other buildings of the same type.
**Selecting a single Archer Tower will select and highlight all Archer Towers in the village.
**In addition, selecting a single Hero Altar will select all Hero Altars.
*Defensive buildings will show the range as well as their configuration if they have any. For example:
**Inferno Towers will specify if they are set to multi or single-target.
**Mortars will show their minimum and maximum range.
**Builder Huts will show their healing range.
**Spell Towers will show their spell range.
*Selected buildings will also show their current level!
**Resource Storage and Resource Production buildings will show the amount of loot they contain! If there are no resources that can be looted from these, they will show their level instead.
*The Clan Castle will also show how much defending troop housing it will spawn.
*Town Halls level 12 and higher will also show what level the Town Hall weapon is.
====Hard Mode with Friends!====
Are you in for a true test of the strength of your army, Chief? Hard Mode is a new opt-in, more challenging version of the Friendly Challenges and Friendly Wars. This feature is still a work in progress and will be evolving over the next few updates based on feedback.
*Players can use the check box to initiate Hard Mode when creating Friendly Challenges and Friendly Wars.
*In Hard Mode, Defenses deal +5% more damage, and attacking Heroes have -10% less HP and -15% less DPS.
====Time & Cost Reductions====
*Reduced the resource upgrade costs and upgrade times for a large variety of upgrades across many Town Hall levels, including defenses, troops, spells, heroes, and pets.
====Quality of Life Changes====
*If any of your Equipment Ore storage is full, the Blacksmith will display a bubble “Full!”, and will cycle thorough the icons of the Ore types that are full.
*The Clan Castle will now start in Sleep mode rather than Guard mode when rebuilt.
*Changed equipment's initial target selection so it takes building size into account instead of targeting the building middle point. This reduces the likelihood of targeting the wrong building with Fireball and also affects Seeking Shield and Spiky Ball.
*Added a reminder for obstructed defensive layout in Builder Base when attacking in case defensive layout was selected but blocked by obstacles.
*Players can now reorder their list of Supercell ID profiles when switching between multiple accounts.
====Bug Fixes and Improvements====
*Previously, Yetis would spawn 1 yetimite when they took accumulated damage of 600, but if they took 1800 damage in one single attack, it would still spawn only 1 yetimite. We changed it so that when taking damage, it spawns 1 yetimite per 600 damage taken; for example, if a yeti takes 1800 damage, it will spawn 3 yetimites at once.
*Fixed error stating “Gold is not a valid reward type” or “Elixir is not a valid reward type” - which would occasionally happen when the game is loading.
*The duration of Jump and Freeze Spells in the spell info screen is shown even if the spell has no upgrade levels.
===June Balance Changes! - Jun 3, 2024===

===Temperamental Tentacles Update! - Apr 17, 2024===
Hello Chief! The Temperamental Tentacles update is LIVE and below you'll find everything you need to know about what's new in the game!
====Introducing a Brand-New Pet: Angry Jelly!====
Angry Jelly is a flying Pet with a long-range attack.
*It's ability is called Brainwash and it forces the Hero to whom is "attached" to target Defenses only.
*While “attached” to your Hero of choice, Angry Jelly cannot be targeted or damaged and won't trigger traps.
*Once the "attached" Hero is eliminated or when its ability (Brainwash) ends, Angry Jelly becomes a normal troop and can be targeted and trigger traps.
*Angry Jelly will be available to the players at Town Hall 16 and Level 10 Pet House.
And now, here are the launch stats of Angry Jelly:
Level	Upgrade Cost	Upgrade Duration (hours)	TH Required 	Ability Duration (seconds)

====Streak Event is here! START DATE: APRIL 18, 0800 UTC====
Welcome to the Streak Event!
From April 18th, each day, your daily attacks will fill in the Destruction % and indicate the required Stars for this challenge!
*Complete challenges each day, collect rewards, and gain additional League Bonus boosts
*Should you fail challenges in the given time frame, your Streak is lost, and you cannot continue
*However, you can spend Gems to continue the streak or reset your Streak to the beginning
*You will also be able to Rush your Streaks by opening the following-day challenges ahead of time via Gems
The Streak Event will be available to all players from Town Hall 8 and above.
====Clan Chat Tagging!====
Clan members can now tag others! Tag your Clan Leaders and everyone in the Clan to attract their attention.
*@clan notifies everyone in the Clan
*@leaders notifies all Co-Leaders and the Leader
*@player_name notifies specific player
Players can disable receiving notifications in Settings > More Settings > Notification Settings > Clan Chat Tagging. It is worth noting that this setting is not based on device but player avatar, so if a player has multiple accounts they each have a different setting. This setting is enabled by default.
====Clan Castle with 2 Siege Machine donations====
The new Clan Castle level will allow players to ask for 2 Siege Machine upgrades. This is how it works:
*Players may ask for up to two siege machines, and can ask for 2 of the same or 2 different ones
*A single clan mate may donate up to two siege machines depending on the Clan Perks they have
**2 clan mates can also each donate one
*During battle, both siege machines donated will show up as options to be picked, even if they are the same machine
====Defensive Layout for Builder Base!====
Just like in Clan Capital, it's now possible to select separate Defensive Layout in Builder Base!
*You can decorate the active layout without disadvantaging yourself in defense
*You can prevent others from copying your defensive layout simply by visiting
The Defensive Layout must contain all buildings and traps that are placed in the active layout. Defensive Layout is unselected when:
*Editing Defensive Layout directly and saving it without placing all buildings and traps
*Placing an unplaced building or trap in the active layout
*Buying a building or trap from Shop
Note that Defensive Layout is temporarily disabled but not automatically unselected if obstacles that grow to the active layout block some buildings and traps. In such a case, you can re-enable the layout simply by removing the offending obstacles.
====Clan Games====
*Selection weight of certain Builder Base tasks has been reduced when randomizing tasks which increases the likelihood of showing more Home Village tasks.
====Quality of life improvements====
*Applied Star Bonus multipliers from events and Town Hall upgrades to Ore as well
*Grand Warden is less likely to follow Headhunters now
*The Barbarian Puppet Hero Equipment now displays the Rage duration and damage increase gained by Barbarians spawned
*The Laboratory shows a second progress bar for the Goblin Researcher
====Clan Perks====
Considerably buffed the clan perks to allow each individual player to donate more troops:
Clan Level 	Troop Donation Limit	Spell Donation Limit	Siege Machine Donation Limit
1-2 	6 	1 	1
3 	8 	1 	1
4-5 	10 	2 	1
6-7 	20 	2 	2
8 	30 	3 	2
9-all others	50 	3 	2
====Bug Fixes====
*Fix bug which caused spawning of obstacles with smaller gem amounts than normal
*Fireball should now damage both ground and air, whatever it is aiming at. It was previously only damaging ground buildings and troops if it targeted anything on the ground, and if it targeted an air troop, it would only damage air
*Fix for a visual bug when Overgrowth and Invisibility spells are applied at the same time
*Fix for traps remaining invisible when Freeze or Overgrowth spells are applied in the area
*Fix building base to match scenery in Builder Base after canceling layout editing
*Flying 3D characters' health bar is slightly higher
*Flying Warden does not jump over walls anymore
*Fix villager shadow being on top of buildings
*Royal Champion's attacks doing less damage when the Haste Vial ability is active
====Clan Capital====
*Increase loot limit per attack from 5333 to 6100 in Capital trophy calculations
*Scale defensive bonus based on remaining hitpoints for deployed units
====Clan Wars Changes====
*Almost maxed Town Hall 16 Villages now receive 6 Starry Ore instead 5 Starry Ore
*Clan Wars rewards for losing from 43% to 50% and rewards for a tie from 50% to 57% apply to both resources and ore gains
*35 vs 35 and 45 vs 45 Wars are now enabled
*Hero Equipment is now taken into account in attacks when matchmaking in addition to Town Hall levels
*War roster selection screen now displays each clan member's last seen online time
*Clan War signup changes:
**Clan Leaders and Co-Leaders can post a Clan War sign-up in Clan Chat. You can do so from the War Map, next to the “Start war” button
**There can be only one sign-up item in the chat at the same time

===February 2024 Update - Patch Notes===
The first major update of 2024 for Clash of Clans is here! We're introducing a brand new Spell, new levels, balance changes, QoL improvements, and much more in this update. Dive in below for the full details of what's in this update!
====New Spell: Overgrowth Spell====
With the thawing of winter comes the sudden verdant bloom of spring, and Overgrowth Spell is here to usher in warmer weather…and your Troops into the enemy's base.
Unlocked at Town Hall level 12 when you upgrade your Dark Spell Factory to level 6, this Dark Elixir Spell opens up whole new paths of strategies (literally)! When used, Overgrowth Spell renders enemy Defenses invisible, invulnerable, and frozen for the duration of its effect. This means attacking Troops will completely ignore Buildings and Defenses affected by Overgrowth Spell, allowing new ways for you to funnel and path your Troops!
However, Overgrowth Spell will not affect Heroes or Troops in the Clan Castle, nor does it prevent Clan Castle Troops from emerging! One additional detail is that Overgrowth Spell leaves tiny bits of debris that can be cleared by defending players when you tap them, like tombstones left behind by destroyed units. 
*Effect type: Area Splash
*Targets: Ground & Air
*House space: 2
*Brewing time: 6m
