Clash of Clans has stayed relevant even after years of its release due to its village-building mechanic, a feature that has also helped the title garner an immense fan base across the globe. Keeping a village in COC up-to-date requires frequent visits to the game and upgrading different buildings, which costs a certain amount of in-game currencies, such as Gold, Elixir, or Dark Elixirs.

As you progress in Clash of Clans and near TH10 or TH11, upgrading a Town Hall becomes one of the most arduous tasks, as it not only costs a colossal amount of resources but, if properly done, needs you to upgrade other structures of your base, including Walls.

Leveling up TH is a double-edged sword, as it pits you against tougher competition; hence, you should also upgrade other buildings in your base to cope with increasing competition.

This article will further discuss the five best tips and tricks to make your Town Hall great in Clash of Clans.


Top 5 tips for beginners to quickly enhance their Clash of Clans townhall

1) Save the gems

This is probably the most important tip for beginners, as many are tempted to use gems to instantly finish upgrades that would otherwise take hours or even days. However, gems are quite rare, making them an incredibly important resource for Clash of Clans players.

Gems help players get builder huts. At the start of the game, one builder will be enough. However, if players reach TH5 without more builders, it will take forever to upgrade anything, as there will be a lot of things to upgrade. So, no matter how tempting it is, always save the gems, at least until you get your fifth builder hut.


2) Improve your attack and defense strategies

To construct a great village, you must incorporate the best attacking and defense strategy into your gameplay, as this translates into an immense amount of loot and keeps it safe from raiders. Moreover, enhancing your gameplay becomes all the more important when you're looking forward to upgrading your TH level.

To constantly improve your attack and defense strategy, follow COC content creators, as these experts frequently upload useful guides that can be immensely helpful in honing your skills. Moreover, experiment with different troops, add them to your army composition and observe which set of troops effectively contributes to your attack strategies.

As for the defense skills, look for the best-fortified base structures and reconstruct your village accordingly. Make sure to construct your base in a way that hinders enemies from using Queen Charge or Funelling in Clash of Clans.


3) Increase the gold and elixir reserves

Maximize your gold and elixir reserves and increase the extractors and mines as often as possible. These are important buildings in Clash of Clans, and upgrading them will keep the resources flowing for beginners even when they are on a bad run in raiding other players’ villages in Clash of Clans.

You can always attack Goblin villages for practice, where it is easy to break bases. Play these, get loot in the early days, and upgrade your storage and mines with them.


4) How to win battles

You have to get at least one star to win an attack. Stars are earned by damaging 50% of the enemy base, breaking the Town Hall, and doing 100% damage to the base. So when your troops are not ready to do 50% damage to the raided base, attacking the Town Hall can be a great option to secure wins from these early raids. As a beginner, you can always try training modes to perfect your attacking combination.

Keep using the training mode of Clash of Clans to learn new types of attack combinations. This way, whenever you are at a new level and some new troops are unlocked, you will be prepared to use them in different raids.


5) Always check the Clan Castle before attacking

A beginner should always remember to empty the Clan Castles of the enemy base, especially in wars. If the clan members have helped you with reinforcements, the opposing players probably have those too. So, deploy one troop to check for reinforcements in the Clan Castle before deploying the others. This is probably the most important trick to consider before attacking villages from other clans in Clan Wars.

Beginners often misjudge the power of the opponent they are attacking in wars and even normal attacks and deploy all their troops for a full-fledged attack. Then, once the troops come out of the opponent's Clan Castle, they do considerable damage to the player's army. Not only will you miss stars by attacking villages that are sure-shot three-star bases, but you might also lose in these attacks just because you forgot to clear the Clan Castle.
