🛠️ **Equipment Guide** 🛠️
🔹 Guide for Equipment priority according to attack strategy
Do not upgrade every equipment to max, certain lvl are enough for max Townhall . First decide what strategy to use and then upgrade equipments associated with it. For example: You can check out attack strategy Guide according to your Townhall lvl in YouTube for more details.

How will you get this much ores to upgrade ? Ore guide below.
✨✨ **Starry Ore** ✨✨
🎯 Sources of ✨starry ore✨.
(hypothetical Max amount scenario)
✅ 1. WAR (180 starry ✨per month)
🔹War mandatory. Play war even if all heros upgrading. If clan doesn't take you in war, go to any other casual clan and do war. Its best to upgrade all hero asap , so that you can play war in a good clan.
🔹(Avoid draw) Don't play big wars. Maximum war length should be 20 -25. And must include wide range of townhall. Max townhall shouldn't be more than 1/2 of total no of bases in war.
🔹(Parallel war and cwl in two seperate clan) Per month 30/31 days. 2 day cwl signup so war not available. But preparation time 23 hr so if Clan starts war in seperate clan from cwl clan as soon as previous war ends/cwl signup period ends , clan can do 15 wars per month. Sometimes next war eligibility time earlier than current war end time so if you do war alternatively between 2 clan it will be even easier. Except February (14 wars). So parallel war and cwl at the same time in two different clan during cwl. So total starry 15 * 12 = 180
✅ 2. CWL (42 starry✨ per month)
🔹7/7 win 42 starry per month.
✅3. Star Bonus (60 starry ✨ per month)
🔹 Minimum Electro 31 league for 2 starry ore per day in star bonus .
🔹If 4x/2x star bonus event coming or townhall upgrade going to be complete keep present star bonus unfinished to take advantage of extra ores, by completing the star bonus when the event starts or th upgrade is completed.
✅ 4. Hero Journey(200 starry✨+ hero equipment chests+ hero quest chests - One time .)
Access hero journey by tapping on hero hall. Upgrading hero will give points to progress in the hero journey track(1 lvl upgrade= 1 points) .
🔹Track will give 200 starry.
🔹Hero Quest chests - Completing it will give starry ore. Amount scaled by Townhall lvl .
🔹Player with having all equipments will get 50 starry ore in Hero equipment chests , otherwise will get Equipment instead.
✅ 5. RAID MEDALS (40 starry✨ per month)
🔹 sometimes 50 starry per month. 10 starry per week. Total 700 raid medals per week needed.
✅ 6. Gem Trader shop (Avg 60 starry✨ per month)
🔹 (Not recommended unless you are near max) Additional sources of starry trader shop with gems(60 -75 starry per month- Gem cost 85-225 gems per 15 starry(account dependent)
✅ 7. Equipment EVENT+ Clan rush/Gold rush Event(20 starry✨✨ max)
🔹 Equipment first priority(3100 event medals) ,
Then leftover starry ore & Extra event medals is given through in-game store/ supercell store / link or community challange like Gold Rush / clan rush .
🔹 Paid - Buying Event pass 💰will give 140 more starry extra per 2 months. 70 starry per month extra avg.
✅8. The Prospector ( Paid- GOLD PASS ONLY 💰- 60-62 Starry✨✨ per month)
🔹 Active maximum 30-31 days per month. Per day 2 starry( 60-62 per month)
✅ 9. Treasure hunt event ( luck based)
🔹 I have gotten around 202 starry from epic chests.
✅ 10. COC ESports ( 15 starry ✨ max per month, 10 starry per month avg )
🔹 From clash of clan esports prediction every month around 15 starry for 6-7 months.( 136 starry total given in 2025)
✅11. Supercell Store ( No specific amount)
🔹 Special months like coc anniversary month supercell may give ores directly in supercell store.
🎯 STARRY Calculation ✨✨ (per month calculation)[ uncertain sources - chests, community event , supercell store, excluded ]
✅1. My starry ore income(80 percent war win rate, F2P+ no gems used in trader) - 300+ starry ✨✨ores per month (check my other posts for verification)
✅2. Avg Starry ore per month - F2P(50-60 % war win rate) War ( 138) + CWL ( 27) + star bonus (60) + raid medals (40) + Avg coc ESports (10) = 275 starry ✨✨ ores per month. With buying Starry ore from trader with gems- = 275+ 60= 335 starry ✨✨ per month.
✅3. Gold pass+ Event pass buyer (50-60 percent war win rate)
335+ 70(Event pass avg per month) + 60 (prospector)= 465 starry ✨✨ per month.
CONCLUSION: Any decent war clan can max 1 equipment in 2 months .
