Clash of Clans sneak peek: Level 7 Minions

And a reduction in gem cost for boosting

So far, the new Clash of Clans update has been very defense heavy. Yesterday, we learned Town Hall 11 won't just bring upgrades for exisiting buildings, but also the ability to build even more defensive buildings, including another Cannon, Archer Tower, Wizard Tower, and X-Bow.

Well, today Supercell gave us our first look at an offensive boost — the level 7 Minions. With orange wings, the new-look Minions match the upgraded level 11 walls. In terms of effectiveness, we don't have the exact stats of the upgraded minions, but it's safe to assume an increase in DPS and hit points. Check them out in the video below.

Meanwhile, over on the forums, Supercell revealed that the Boost for Heroes, Barracks, and Spell Factories will be reduced from 10 gems for 2 hours to 5 gems for 1 hour. With the reduction of the personal break from 6 hours down to 3, this tweak makes sense.

Clash of Clans' Town Hall 11 update doesn't yet have a release date, but we're expected at least a few more days of sneak peeks. Check out some of the previous announcements below:
