The March Update is here! New Troop: Furnace, New Equipment – Noble Iron, New pet: Sneezy, New building levels for TH17, New Achievements, Balance Changes, Bug Fixes, and more!
New Dark Elixir Troop: Furnace
Furnace is a “troop” that doesn’t move and doesn’t attack, instead, it spawns over time a number of Firemites which are tiny quick troops that shoot themselves at the nearest buildings, doing damage over time. Mechanically this is how they work:
- Furnace
- Has no move speed, attack speed, target type, preference, etc, just “exists”!
- Spawns Firemites over 60 seconds (~1 Firemite every 3 seconds).
- Can spawn a maximum number of Firemites. This number and the level of Firemites spawned increases with the Furnace level.
- Damages itself over time. If destroyed before spawning all Firemites, those Firemites are not spawned and are “lost”.
- If healed, eventually the Furnace will stop spawning Firemites even if still alive.
- It can move very slowly in the village context, for example, to go from barrack to army camps.
- Firemite
- Has fast move speed, attack speed, targets anything, and low hp
- When it attacks a building, it shoots themselves at the building doing a small instant damage and creating fire under the building.
- The fire does area damage over time to the building
- Multiple pools of fire in the same place do not stack up damage.
- Details
- Unlocks at TH15
- Has 4 levels at launch, 2 in TH15, 1 in TH16 and 1 in TH17
New Common Equipment – Noble Iron
- Common equipment for the Minion Prince
- Passive: When MP is deployed, his first few attack projectiles deal more damage, fly faster, and have longer range (similar to Super Minion ability)
- Equipment levels increase: number of boosted shots, their damage and range, and his general attack speed in the battle
- Releases together with the Update. Unlocked by Blacksmith level 5 (Town Hall 12).
