Can you use troops while upgrading COC?

▶

Yes, you can use troops while upgrading in Clash of Clans (COC), as upgrading a building or a troop does not hinder your ability to use troops for attacks or defenses. The Laboratory, Barracks, Dark Barracks, and Army Camps can all function and be used while they are being upgraded, allowing you to continue playing without significant interruptions.

Frequently Asked Questions

General Upgrading Questions

1. Can you still use Army camps if you upgrade? Upgrading and building more Army Camps lets you store more troops, allowing higher chances of victory in raids. They continue to function even when they are being upgraded, allowing you to keep your armies at full capacity at all times.
2. Can you receive troops while upgrading clan castle? If you request for troops while your Clan Castle is upgrading and the upgrade finishes while your troop request is still pending, your clanmates will still only be able to donate the amount of troops available for your previous level Clan Castle.
3. Can you research troops while upgrading lab? It is possible to upgrade the Laboratory itself while an upgrade is happening within the Laboratory, and research will continue as normal while the Laboratory is being upgraded.

Troop and Spell Upgrading

4. Should I max all troops before upgrading town hall? Some players will insist that everything should be maxed whereas others will suggest play how you want to play and upgrade when you’re bored or fancy new troops/heroes etc. There isn’t a right or wrong answer, but there are a few considerations at each Town Hall level to help you make a decision you don’t later regret.
5. Can I still brew spells while upgrading? If you upgrade the Spell Factory, it can continue brewing spells, but at half the normal rate (i.e. six minutes per housing space).
6. Is it worth upgrading the Clan Castle? If you loot more in the clan war than the Clan Castle can hold, you will not get everything you earned in the war. Each upgrade will increase the amount of resources you can collect in the clan war.

Donation and Gifting

7. Can you donate troops to yourself in clash of clans? Using Raid Medals to self-donate will fill your request with the highest maximum allowed level. You can access this self-donation screen by clicking on a new button when you tap on the Clan Castle or the Clan Banner next to the path that donated Troops travel down next to the Trader.
8. What happens if you destroy Clan Castle before troops come out? If you do so troops in CC will be trapped and won’t come out. But they won’t be killed.

Training and Upgrading Troops

9. Can you train dark troops while upgrading barracks? Dark Barracks train at half the normal rate while being upgraded.
10. Is it worth upgrading the camp? Yes once you buy those two upgrades you get a map at Arthurs tent for fast travel to places you have been to before.
11. Should I upgrade both barracks in clash of clans? It all depends on ur TH level. If you’re small at th5 and less, Barching is good for you.

Special Items and Features

12. Can you use hammer of fighting while upgrading a troop? Hammer of Fighting – Instantly upgrades any Troop to the next level. Works in both Villages.
13. How can I speed up my COC upgrade time? Max out collectors first. If you start to go for other things like walls and defenses first, it is going to take a long time to get!

Strategies and Tips

14. Which troop should I upgrade in COC? Hog Riders are one of the best troops to destroy defenses with, because they can jump over walls and destroy defenses in seconds when in hordes. Upgrading means more damage done, making it a valuable asset in most troop combos.
15. Can I give my COC account to my friend? Donating your account to someone else is not allowed by the Clash of Clans Terms of Service, which you have agreed to upon installing the game, registering an account or playing the game or using their services in any other way.
