Clash of Clans Update – The Bat Spell and January Changes

Clash of Clans will be seven years old this year but the game has remained popular among many smartphone users around the world.

The hit game offers a slick mixture of strategy and online interaction that makes it easy to play but hard to master. With a wealth of units available, there are several combinations that will help you to raise your starting kingdom to a glorious destiny.

Unlike other companies, Supercell is constantly improving the game by releasing consistent updates that add new and exciting features.

Below you can find the changes brought by the latest balance update and more information about the new content that was added in the December update.

The January update

It seems that the January update will be quite minimalistic. While the Bat Spell was nerfed by the previous update many players continued to say that it is overpowered. Supercell decided to nerf the spell again in order to satisfy the community.

The spell will now spawn a smaller number of bats per each level. The delay until the first attack takes place has been increased to 1.5 seconds, up by 0.5 seconds. The damage has remained unchanged for now. Below you can see how the number of bats was changed:

Level 1: 7 (initially 10)

Level 2: 9 (initially12)

Level 3: 11 (initially 14)

Level 4: 16 (initially18)

Level 5: 21 (initially22)

December changes

The spell was also changed in December when the number of bats was decreased for the first time.

The Stone Slammer was also changed during the same update. While the damage multiplayer was increased to 25x (it was 15x at first) the splash damage would decrease on par with the distance at which the target is situated (more damage if the target is closer). The HP of the unit was also nerfed in order to make it easier to kill.

The Ice Golem was also introduced in this update but the unit has remained unchanged for now.
