Guardians

Town Hall 18 sees the weapon removed from the Town Hall and it is now defended by a Guardian. You can pick which Guardian defends your Town Hall. They are purely defensive and can’t be used in attacks. As the Town Hall is no longer weaponised, it won’t be targeted by defense targeting Troops/Heroes.

Two Guardians will be available on release:

Longshot

A ranged Guardian that does splash damage and explodes when defeated.

Smasher

A melee Guardian that does splash damage and when defeated, drops Rage onto the battlefield. Becomes enraged if the Town Hall is destroyed.

New Defense: Revenge Tower

As buildings in the village get destroyed, the Revenge Tower becomes stronger:

• 0 destroyed: Doesn’t attack
• 5 destroyed:Single target, high damage slow attack
• 20 destroyed: Attack speed increase and attack bounces to second target
• 40 destroyed: Attack speed is very high and attacks bounce to 3 targets

New Merged Defense: Super Wizard Tower

Take 2 of your max level Wizard Towers and merge them into a super defense. Attacks one troop that chains to up to fifteen nearby enemies. Chained targets take less damage.

New Troop: Meteor Golem

Available at Town Hall 17 once the Barracks has been upgraded to level 19. This is an event troop from the Cosmic Rock event that has now been boosted and is permanent.

These Meteormites throw themselves at their target. When separate, they will attack nearby targets or find a friend to form a Meteor Golem.

New Spell: Totem Spell

A new Elixir Spell that is unlocked with Spell Factory level 9 (TH16). This spell distracts ground and air defenses by dropping a Totem. It damages and stuns the area in which it lands.

Crafted Defenses: Season 2

Season 1 has ended, season 2 (lasting 4 months) has started bringing 3 new crafted defenses to TH18:

• Hero Bell: Boosts defending Hero damage and HP
• Bomb Hive: Launches bombs in 4 directions
• Light Beam: A single target beam that has damage falloff over distance

Fancy Shop

A new shop tab is being added along with a new Sparky Stones currency.

Earn Sparky Stones by:

• Complete Supercharge Upgrades: 10 Sparky Stones each
• Complete Crafted Defense Module Upgrades: 8 Sparky Stones each

All previously completed Supercharge/Module upgrades will count towards this

Initial shop items are:

• Meteorite Builder Skin (3,200)

Cost and Time Reductions for TH16/17

This update sees some cost and time reductions, primarily affecting TH17 but there are a couple of TH16 lab levels affected also.
