There is not much to say about Day 4 regarding my village progress. After last war that we
won, I just continue with upgrades. Frankly, TH4 is not that significant as I
cant upgrade Barbarian, Archer or Goblin. I still can upgrade Giant, Wall
Breaker and Balloon though. So, I decide to go for TH5 immediately. Not that
immediately. I will having some war experience at TH4 and upgrade all storages
and troop level available so it could be handy when I reach TH5 later. I also
decide to clear my village from obstacles or rubbish that appeared as trees,
mushrooms and stones apparently. This will enable me to get my 3rd
builder. So, my mission 5 will be getting the 3rd builder.
Mission 5: Getting 3rd Builder.
The Facts
According to clashofclans.wikia.com, each obstacle that is
removed will yield 0-6 Gems. The distribution is not random and follows the
following repeating sequence of 6, 0, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2, 0, 0, 5, 1, 0, 3, 4, 0, 0,
5, 0, 1, 0.
This of course not include Gem Box that give us 25 gems.
Wikia also notes that vegetation respawn at a rate of one
item per eight hours, except if all the spaces in your village are totally
filled. Furthermore, an obstacle will only spawn if there is a 1-tile buffer
zone between the spaces in which it will spawn and another building or
obstacle.
Third point to note is you can only have 1 gem box at any
time in a village. Fourth, your village can have a maximum of 40 obstacles at
one time. These 4 points are very important because knowing these facts you
should;
i. Clear all obstacle as soon as possible as there is no
benefit of waiting and there are many harms too. If you clear early, you get
gems early thus the 3rd builder early. Some more, you can utilise
all village spaces that were blocking your buildings placement before. If you
keep these obstacles, the new one will not respawn easily. If you having 40
obstacle, new obstacle will not respawn at all. In theory, if you don’t have
1-tile space between buildings or obstacles, new obstacle will not respawn
either. So, you could have less than 40 obstacles but new obstacle will not
respawn.
ii. Gems Box should not be a decorative or any other
function. You need to remove it as soon it appears because only 1 Gems Box will
appear at one time. The longer you keep, the longer the next Gems Box appears
thus reduce the rate you will get that extra 25 gems.
My Mistake
I actually did mistake on this. The first thing I should do
is to clear obstacles. I actually know these facts before but I just too focus on upgrading buildings. Also, clearing obstacle need you to having resources which considered very significant considering your storages' capacity. Be that as it may, I think upgrading buildings are much more important, less raid demanding and require less time playing. So, at that time, my decision is the best. Only today when I think back, and admitted that I did mistake. I should just removing obstacles, get gems and get my 3rd builder. Having my 3rd builder is incredibly advantaging me outweigh the undesirables situation I mention earlier.
Past memories...
During my first year of
playing COC, I have theory that I should only remove few obstacles a day. The
idea is I thought removing the preceding obstacle will reduce the chance of
having gems. If I remove the first one, I might get 5 gems. If I remove the 2nd,
the chance of getting 5 gems will reduce. The chance will continue to decrease
as I remove the preceding obstacles. Well, my theory is half true actually as
according the real mechanic if I get 5 gems, I will only get the next 5 gems
after removing 6 obstacles after the first 5 gems. My actions however does not
affecting much as long I remove obstacles each day as they will respwan again
and I steadily get gems. Point taken here, learning these facts, you should
remove obstacles including gems to get more gems and increasingly at higher
rate.
