With the summer coming up in full blast, Clash of Clans latest season journey offers at the end the Archer Queen in a 50s type of beach outfit with sunglasses. Some people over on reddit had criticized this skin as being one of the worst and would not be purchasing the Season Pass. For me, I honestly don’t care and just see it as a bonus since I’m all about the other benefits from the Season Pass.
Right now, I took a quick peek at the rewards and the most noticeable thing is that once again, we have two Books of Heroes and no Book of Building. For me at this stage, I actually value this more than the Book of Building just because both my accounts currently are more focused on leveling up my Heroes rather than the building themselves. Already, I took advantage of an offer and pushed my Grand Warden on my TH13 to level 42 and my Royal Champion to a full level 10. I think my TH12’s Grand Warden moved up to level 26 and I started my Archer Queen there to level 62.
With that said and seeing the two Books of Heroes rewards down the line, I’m thinking that my TH13 will focus on getting my Grand Warden to level 45 this season. It’s either that or pushing my Barbarian King to level 60. But my Royal Champion won’t get anymore levels and more than likely I’ll funnel my Dark Elixir on that account towards trying to level up my Bowlers. My TH12 account also will see a focus on trying to get the Grand Warden to level 30. In my mind, the goal is to get the Grand Warden eventually to the point where I can start Warden walking, which I believe can start from level 40 but does well around level 45.
The other major aspect is that for the Builder Base, the big Rune for this season is the Rune of Builder Gold. I think this is fine since both accounts have managed to train up their key troops and are trying to advance their defenses. My older account will probably upgrade either the Guard Hall or Crusher to max level while my main account tries to push one of the Archer Towers or Double Cannon. Not that it really matters but I do hope to make some major strides this season on my Builder Bases.
Something I’ve been thinking about more and more lately is starting one more account. Without a doubt, having a third account will take me a significant amount of time before getting it into a spot to really contribute towards stuff like Clan Games. But I think getting a third one might be okay just because having access to at least three tiers of the Clan Games rewards would be good. Also, with the elimination of training cost for troops, I feel that along with the variety of quality of life changes over the years make starting up a new account much easier. I think once you can get an account to level 8 or 9, they can begin contributing to some degree.
However, I don’t see myself putting money into a 3rd account for a while. With all the reduction of costs, I think spending money isn’t worth it until at least TH12. These days it’s quite easy to accumulate resources, especially now that troop costs zero. So the only problem is the time it takes to upgrade a building. In that situation, the time aspect only begins to hurt around TH12. So even the Season Pass does not feel worth purchasing until perhaps TH11.
But one thought here is that having that third account especially now that I have a TH13 with a maxed out Log Launcher would make lower level Town Hall fights so much easier. In some way, maybe even a fourth or fifth account might be worth while just because of the need to do wars to help build up the Clan’s experience and gradually get the Clan Capitol rolling.
I am a little timid about doing this because how I’m fearful of disconnecting my accounts. But if I try this, I might do it on my iPad. The only mortifying thought here is going through the Builder Base one more time. Somethings like getting a 5th Builder, etc. will be awful but I might just treat this situation as completely free to play and just grind slowly. It won’t be as cool but I eventually want to accomplish more in the game. I do see a lot of people on Twitch swapping accounts quite frequently so this isn’t exactly an abnormal occurrence and some YouTubers demonstrate how one can easily create new accounts. So I might try this in a day or two. If anything having a 3rd account might be fun while my other two accounts are waiting around trying to get their upgrades done. And again if this is easy, I might consider doing 1-2 more just to be able to participate in Clan Wars.
