HERO EQUIPMENT Changes CoC Forever | EVERYTHING You Need to Know TH16 Clash of Clans Sneak Peek #5

▶️ This update is HUUUUGE! Not only focused on Town Hall 16 but this sneak peek today affects 95% of the player base. Today we introduce hero equipment, a revolutionary way to customise your hero abilities just to your liking!

HERO EQUIPMENT!

Hero Equipment is a groundbreaking feature that empowers you to customize your Heroes and select the abilities they bring to the battlefield. It's not just about choosing existing abilities – we're unveiling brand new, formidable powers your Heroes have never experienced!

Imagine outfitting your Archer Queen with a colossal arrow that pierces through the entire battlefield.

Or perhaps you want to equip your Barbarian King with Earthquake Boots, enabling him to smash through Walls with every stomp.

Your go-to Hero abilities, like the Barbarian King's Iron Fist, are now diversified into various Hero Equipment pieces that can be upgraded and interchanged. For instance, attaching the Barbarian Puppet lets your Barbarian King summon a horde of Raged Barbarians. Swap it with another item, like Vampstache, and the ability to summon Raged Barbarians is replaced with the Barbarian King healing himself with each attack!

Or what if the Grand Warden can increase the DPS of nearby heroes and troops with his Life Gem and Rage Gem equipments or heal troops within his aura range using his Healing Tome? Sounds marvelours, isn't it?

The Royal Champion on the other hand, with her Royal Gem ability, doesn't just throw off her shield but deals extra damage like the King and Queen do under his their ability.

Hold on tight, Chief! It's time to revolutionize your Clash of Clans attacks!

Brand New Building: Blacksmith

Unlocked at Town Hall level 8 and above, the Blacksmith is your go-to hub for all things related to Hero Equipment. Just like the Pet House is crucial for leveling up Hero Pets and assigning them to Heroes, the Blacksmith is where you'll enhance your Hero Equipment and fine-tune your Heroes' abilities.

Introducing a new resource: Ores!

Exciting news – Hero Equipment is upgradeable! That means you can enhance your favorite Equipment to be even more potent than before. To upgrade your Equipment, you'll need these new resources: Shiny Ore, Glowy Ore, and Starry Ore.

Here's the breakdown:

1. Shiny Ore: The most common of Ores, suitable for all levels of Common and Epic Equipment.

2. Glowy Ore: A rarer Ore used for upgrading key levels of both Common and Epic Hero Equipment.

3. Starry Ore: The rarest Ore required to elevate your Epic Equipment beyond specific levels.

Earn Ores through various means. Collect them from:

• Home Village Star Bonus
• Clan Wars
• The Trader
• The in-game Shop

If you find yourself short on Ores to complete an Equipment upgrade, fret not! You can also use Gems as an alternative. Keep those Ores coming and level up your Hero Equipment!

Star Bonus Ore Rewards

Curious about how much Ore you'll earn from Clan Wars?

However, keep in mind that these figures may vary based on factors like war weight.

Once you've amassed the necessary resources, you're ready to take that Equipment to the next level!

Elevating Heroes to New Heights

Each Hero can don TWO pieces of Hero Equipment simultaneously. It's as simple as dragging the Hero Equipment from your inventory onto your Hero in the Blacksmith Equipment UI. Equipments come with either Active or Passive abilities. Active abilities need manual activation during battle, like triggering Barbarian King's Iron Gauntlet ability. Passive abilities, on the other hand, remain active permanently without any player input – an example being the Grand Warden's aura.

• Common Equipment can reach level 18 and are accessible by upgrading your Blacksmith.
• Epic Equipment, on the other hand, can reach level 27 and are unlockable during special events.
• Some Equipment also feature secondary effects such as boosting DPS, HP recovery, increased movement speed, and more.
• Stay tuned for an upcoming update, where Epic Hero Equipment will be unveiled during special events. Get ready for an epic upgrade! 

Absolutely, we're definitely going to bring in more equipments down the road. This means your Heroes will become even more versatile, stronger, and easier to customize than they've ever been!

And that concludes this colossal Update! We understand the wait can be tough. Hey, Chief, you've shown patience all along, upgrading your village one step at a time. You've got this!
