Hey Chief! Launched on May 1, 2022, for Clash of Clans' tenth anniversary, the Clash of Clans Clan Capital serves as a fully cooperative third game mode alongside the Home Village and Builder Base, unlocking when your clan hits Level 2 and your account reaches Town Hall 6. This mountainside stronghold packs its own Capital Hall, a fresh currency pair of Capital Gold and Raid Medals, themed Clan Capital districts loaded with troops, spells, and defenses found nowhere else, plus weekly Raid Weekends that drive the entire economy through destruction-persistent combat. What makes this CoC Clan Capital guide essential is the sheer layering of systems - from Clan Capital districts unlock order and base layout planning to the rotating CoC Raid Medals rewards inside the Trader Shop - so understanding how Capital Gold flows differently from Raid Medals, which Capital Hall upgrades actually pay back, and how to sync Raid Weekends with your Home Village goals will shape clan progression for months.
For anyone hoping to bypass the slow capital construction phase, especially when chasing later unlocks like Skeleton Park and Golem Quarry, LootBar stands out as a trusted and affordable platform for Gem top-ups, trimming serious time off the most upgrade-heavy patches of the journey.

What Is the Clan Capital in Clash of Clans?
The Clash of Clans Clan Capital occupies its own mountain that any clan ranked Level 2 or higher can enter (provided the individual member is at least Town Hall 6), running as a completely independent progression path from both the Home Village and the Builder Base. At the summit sits the Capital Peak, the founding district that hosts the Capital Hall - essentially the Town Hall analogue for this mode. The Capital Hall caps how high every other Clan Capital district can be upgraded. Once it reaches level 2, it picks up a built-in Eagle Artillery-style weapon that automatically engages attackers during Raid Weekends. One thing that sets this mode apart entirely is that upgrades have no timer attached to them - instead, every clan member pours Capital Gold into a shared pool. The project finishes the instant the contribution target is met. There's also no cap on how many builds can run at once, so ten clanmates can have ten upgrades chipping away simultaneously.
Clan Capital Districts and New Buildings
Clash of Clans Capital Districts
Every themed district becomes accessible at a fixed Capital Hall level and arrives with its own troops, spells, and defensive specialties. Mapping out the Clan Capital districts unlock sequence helps clans funnel Capital Gold into the right buildings for the biggest payoff during Raid Weekends:

Clan Capital Defenses
Defenses are where the mode really stretches its legs. The Clash of Clans Clan Capital throws in some completely fresh structures next to familiar standbys, and layers in terrain quirks like water (which blocks ground troops unless a Frost Spell freezes it solid), cliffs (which flyers simply glide over while ground units must walk around), and bridges (which form natural chokepoints) - all of which reshape base building and Raid Weekends outcomes in dramatic ways.
Defense | Target | Notes |
Cannon | Ground | Standard ground-only defense |
Air Defense | Air | Anti-air specialist |
Super Giant Post | Ground | Spawns defensive Super Giants that break free to chase you if the hut is destroyed first |
Super Dragon Post | Air/Ground | Spawns defensive Super Dragons that rain fire from above |
Super Wizard Tower | Air/Ground | Splash damage tower equipped with Super Wizards |
Giant Cannon | Ground | High-damage single-target devastation |
Rocket Artillery | Air/Ground | Long-range Eagle Artillery variant firing rockets |
Inferno Tower | Air/Ground | Ramping single-target damage |
Mega Tesla | Air/Ground | High-damage electrical defense hits both targets |
Capital Hall Artillery | Air/Ground | Built-in defense from Capital Hall, level 2 onward |
Troops and Spells You Won't Find Anywhere Else
The Clan Capital lineup combines amped-up takes on Home Village classics with a handful of genuinely one-off additions that only show up inside this CoC Clan Capital guide territory. Player level has zero influence on troop power here - your damage output is tied entirely to whatever level your clan has unlocked across the various Clan Capital districts, and there's no Laboratory or cooking time to worry about either, since troops upgrade automatically when the related barracks get pushed up. This is exactly why coordinated Capital Gold investment carries so much weight.
Category | Units |
Troops | Super Barbarian, Sneaky Archer, Super Wizard, Skeleton Barrel, Rocket Balloon, Flying Fortress, Raid Cart, Power P.E.K.K.A, Super Dragon, Hog Raider, Mountain Golem, Battle Ram, Sparky |
Spells | Healing Spell, Jump Spell, Lightning Spell, Frost Spell, Rage Spell, Graveyard Spell |
Capital Gold and Raid Medals Explained
Clash of Clans Capital Gold
The Clash of Clans Clan Capital is driven by two currencies. Capital Gold handles all the construction. You collect it from two sources: attacking enemy districts during Raid Weekends, and The Forge, a Home Village building tucked next to the airship that quietly produces a free daily Capital Gold batch for you to scoop up. Once your Builder Hall reaches level 8, the Forge also opens up four conversion slots that let you trade Gold, Elixir, Dark Elixir, Builder Gold, or Builder Elixir into Capital Gold using a Builder, just like any standard upgrade - and yes, you can speed those conversions with gems or a Builder Potion. Capital Gold stacks up to 35,000 per player and stays completely safe from defense; anything the enemy walks away with after raiding you is newly minted by the game itself, so there's never any pressure about being looted.
Clash of Clans Capital Currencies
Raid Medals are the personal payout currency. They land in your inventory once a Raid Weekend wraps, and the total depends on how many Clan Capital districts your clan tore down plus the housing space your defenses managed to wipe out (roughly one medal for every 25 housing spaces destroyed on defense). The cap sits at 5,000, with anything beyond getting converted to Gems at 1 Gem per 100 medals - a rate basically every veteran calls a waste.
Clash of Clans Trader's Shop
The savvier route is funneling CoC Raid Medals rewards into the revamped Trader's Shop - which now refreshes weekly instead of daily - for Research Potions (200 medals), Starry Ores (350 medals per 5), Wall Rings, Training Potions, Builder Star Jars, and the rotating decorations you simply can't grab anywhere else in the game. Raid Medals also double as a quick-fill currency for your Clan Castle: you can summon donated-quality reinforcement troops directly through the medal system without spending any other resource or waiting on a clanmate to fulfill the request.
Raid Weekends: How They Actually Work
Clash of Clans Clan Capital Raid Medal Rewards
Raid Weekends kick off every Friday at 7 am UTC and wrap up at the same hour the following Monday. To even take part, your Capital Hall must be sitting at level 2 or above, and someone with a leader, co-leader, or elder rank has to officially opt the clan in. Each player starts with 5 attacks for the entire Raid Weekend, with one extra attack awarded as a bonus to whichever clanmate lands the final 3-star on a district. The mode departs from Clan Wars in a key way: the clan getting attacked never strikes back - every Clash of Clans Clan Capital raid is strictly one-way traffic. On average, a single district takes three to five attacks to fully clear, which is exactly why coordination matters more here than anywhere else in the game.
Attacking itself plays out very differently from a standard Home Village three-star run. Your starting deployment zone is tiny - typically about four tiles from any standing building - and it dynamically expands as you knock down structures, break open walls, or Jump Spell across water terrain. Air troops can technically fly to distant pockets of the base, but they don't expand the deployment area for follow-up ground units, so ground access is what really opens up new pathing. Defensive structures like Super Giant Posts and Super Dragon Posts add another wrinkle: if you destroy the hut while the troops inside are still alive, those units break loose to hunt your army down. Damage also lingers between attacks, meaning if you chip a Mega Tesla down to 60%, the very next teammate picks up right where you left off until the district crumbles. Most spells (Lightning being the lone exception) keep their effects active across multiple attacks, too, opening up some genuinely inventive coordination and bigger Capital Gold returns. Leaders and co-leaders can also post friendly challenges on any district layout, letting the whole clan rehearse attack lines before the real Raid Weekend pressure kicks in. The Clan Capital even comes with its own separate XP and reputation tracker that follows your account across clan changes, so the Capital Gold you contribute always counts toward your personal profile.
Conclusion
From the persistent damage system to the rotating CoC Raid Medals rewards in the Trader Shop, Supercell has consistently used the Clash of Clans Clan Capital to push both attack creativity and defense planning forward - each new Clan Capital district adds fresh strategic considerations, whether timing Raid Weekends around carryover spells, planning around defensive Super Giant Posts, or coordinating Capital Gold contributions across the whole clan. Understanding this Capital Hall progression makes you a sharper attacker and a more prepared defender at every stage of the game. Ready to push your Clan Capital further without the wait?
