How Long Does Town Hall 11 Take?

Published in Clash of Clans Upgrades 3 mins read

To fully complete all upgrades at Town Hall 11 (TH11) in Clash of Clans, it typically takes 3 months and 27 days. This duration accounts for simultaneously upgrading your buildings, defenses, and laboratory research, with the longer laboratory research time determining the overall completion period.

Detailed Breakdown of Town Hall 11 Upgrades

Upgrading your Town Hall 11 involves two primary tracks: structures (buildings, defenses, traps) and laboratory research (troops, spells, heroes). To maximize efficiency, players usually aim to keep both upgrade paths continuously busy.

Here's a breakdown of the time and resource investment required for Town Hall 11-specific upgrades:

Upgrade Category Resource Cost (Gold/Elixir Total) Dark Elixir Cost Time Duration
Structures 255.48 Million 68 Million 1 month 22 days
Laboratory 75.2 Million (Elixir) 540 Thousand 3 months 27 days

As you can see, the laboratory upgrades for troops, spells, and heroes take significantly longer than constructing or upgrading buildings. Therefore, the 3 months and 27 days required for laboratory research is the key determinant for the overall time to max out your Town Hall 11 base, assuming you are consistently upgrading both areas.

Comprehensive Progression from Town Hall 10 to Town Hall 11

While the question specifically asks about Town Hall 11, it's worth noting that the total journey from a non-maxed Town Hall 10 to a fully maxed Town Hall 11 encompasses both the remaining upgrades from TH10 and all new upgrades introduced at TH11. If considering this full progression, the total time required extends further.

Here's the combined total for upgrading from Town Hall 10 through to a maxed Town Hall 11:

Upgrade Category Resource Cost (Gold/Elixir Total) Dark Elixir Cost Time Duration
Total Structures 406.18 Million 111 Million 3 months 0 days
Total Laboratory 134.4 Million (Elixir) 851.5 Thousand 6 months 17 days

For the entire progression from Town Hall 10 to a maxed Town Hall 11, the overall time would be 6 months and 17 days, again dictated by the longer laboratory upgrade path.

Optimizing Your Upgrade Time

To reduce the time it takes to complete upgrades, consider these strategies:

  • Utilize All Builders: Keep all your builders constantly working to progress structural upgrades simultaneously. A common goal is to never have a builder idle.
  • Strategic Use of Magic Items:
    • Books of Building/Fighting/Spells: Instantly complete an ongoing upgrade, saving significant time.
    • Hammers of Building/Fighting/Spells: Instantly complete an upgrade without requiring resources, which is ideal for expensive or time-consuming upgrades.
    • Runes: Instantly fill your storages, providing immediate resources for expensive upgrades without needing to farm.
  • Gold Pass Benefits: The monthly Gold Pass offers various perks, including Builder Boosts (reducing upgrade times), Research Boosts (speeding up lab upgrades), and a larger Seasonal Bank, which significantly boosts resource collection.
  • Clan Games and League Medals: Actively participate in Clan Games and Clan War Leagues to earn valuable magic items and resources from their respective shops. These can dramatically accelerate your progress.

By effectively managing your resources and utilizing available boosts, you can streamline your progress through Town Hall 11.
