What is Clan Gold Used For?

Published in Clash of Clans Currency 2 mins read

Clan gold, specifically known as Capital Gold in Clash of Clans, is a unique currency primarily used by clan members to develop and upgrade their shared Clan Capital. It serves as the backbone for communal progression, allowing clans to build formidable defenses, enhance district layouts, and expand their capital city.

How Capital Gold is Obtained and Utilized

Capital Gold is not earned through traditional battles or resource collectors in your Home Village. Instead, clan members actively contribute to its accumulation and spending in a collaborative effort.

  • Acquiring Capital Gold: Clan members convert their personal resources (Gold, Elixir, Dark Elixir) into Capital Gold within the Forge located in their Home Village. This conversion process contributes directly to the clan's shared pool of Capital Gold.
  • Contributing to Buildings: Once obtained, Capital Gold is then used to "Contribute to Buildings" in the Clan Capital. This is a collective effort, where each contribution pushes the progress of a building towards its next upgrade level.

Primary Uses of Capital Gold

The main purpose of Capital Gold revolves around the construction and improvement of the Clan Capital. This includes:

  • Building Up Ruins: In newly unlocked districts, many structures start as ruins. Capital Gold is essential for transforming these ruins into functional buildings, such as defensive structures (Cannons, Archer Towers), resource generators, or other unique capital buildings.
  • Upgrading Existing Buildings: To strengthen the Clan Capital's defenses and boost its offensive capabilities during Capital Raids, existing buildings must be upgraded. Each upgrade requires a specific amount of Capital Gold, accumulated through clan members' contributions.

Here's a summary of its core functions:

Function Description
Acquisition Converted from clan members' personal resources in the Forge.
Primary Use Contributes to the construction and upgrade of buildings in the Clan Capital.
Impact Strengthens clan defenses, unlocks new features, and improves raid performance.
Nature of Use Collective effort by all clan members.

Capital Gold empowers clans to collectively build a powerful and strategically robust Clan Capital, enhancing their performance in Capital Raids and fostering a strong sense of community and shared accomplishment.
