Clash of Clans Super Wall Breaker

By October 1st, 2026No Comments

Updated for Town Hall 18 (October 2026).

The Super Wall Breaker is the Super Troop version of the Wall Breaker: a sturdier skeleton rolling a barrel bomb that goes off even if he is killed on the way. You can boost him from Town Hall 11 once your Wall Breakers are level 7, and he takes 8 housing space. His level always matches your Wall Breaker level, so the current max is level 14 at Town Hall 18.

How the Super Wall Breaker works

Like the normal version, he ignores everything except Walls and runs straight at the nearest section he can reach, dealing 40 times his listed damage to Wall pieces. His explosion is splash damage over a 1.6-tile radius. The difference is the Mega Bomb ability: his barrel can’t be a dud.

  • If he reaches the Wall, he deals both his normal damage and his death damage at once.
  • If a defense kills him first, the barrel still explodes on the spot and deals his death damage.

He also has far more hitpoints than a Wall Breaker and moves a bit faster (speed 28 against 24), so he survives the walk much more often.

How to get Super Wall Breakers: boosting rules

Super Troops are boosted at the Super Sauna, which appears in your village at Town Hall 11. The current rules:

  • You need Town Hall 11 and level 7 Wall Breakers (a level 9 Laboratory).
  • A boost costs 25,000 Dark Elixir or one Super Potion and lasts 3 days.
  • You can have 2 Super Troops boosted at once. During a Super Troop Spotlight event that goes up to 3, but the extra slot has to be the featured troop.
  • You can cancel a boost at any time to free the slot, but you lose the rest of the 3 days and any Super Wall Breakers already in your army.
  • Training is free and instant like every other troop, so once boosted you can rebuild the army after every attack.

Clanmates can also donate them. Your Clan Castle needs to be level 5 or higher, which means Town Hall 9 and up can receive Super Wall Breakers before they can boost their own.

Super Wall Breaker levels and stats

You never upgrade the Super Wall Breaker directly. Upgrade the regular Wall Breaker in the Laboratory, and an active boost picks up the new level automatically.

Level Damage Damage to Walls Death damage Death damage to Walls Hitpoints Town Hall needed
7 78 3,120 175 7,000 350 11
8 100 4,000 225 9,000 400 12
9 120 4,800 275 11,000 450 13
10 130 5,200 313 12,520 475 14
11 140 5,600 338 13,520 500 15
12 150 6,000 363 14,520 525 16

14 170 6,800 413 16,520 575 18

For comparison, a level 14 Wall Breaker has 170 hitpoints and deals 5,040 to Walls; the Super version has more than three times the health and hits much harder, at the cost of 8 housing space instead of 2. Levels 5 and 6 exist only during the Super Wall Breaker Spotlight event, which lets Town Hall 8 players try him.

How to use Super Wall Breakers

Use them where a Wall has to open: in front of a Queen Charge, to break the first compartment for a ground army, or late in an attack to let your troops into the core. A tank such as a Giant or Golem walking just ahead still helps, but on a lightly defended Wall you can send one in alone and trust the barrel to go off.

Two smaller tricks: his blast can finish low-hitpoint buildings next to a Wall (an unarmed level 1 Builder’s Hut dies to it), so he doubles as a funnel tool. And since October 2020 he uses Jump Spells: Walls under an active jump don’t stop him, the same as for the rest of your ground troops.

How to defend against Super Wall Breakers

  • A Spring Trap can remove him, but his bomb still goes off where he is launched. Put Springs a few tiles away from the Wall, not right next to it.
  • Heavy single hits kill him in one shot: a Scattershot, the Eagle Artillery, or a high-level defending Grand Warden.
  • Several single-target defenses covering the same Wall can stop him, though it takes a few shots each.
  • Arrange compartments so one opened Wall doesn’t expose too much, and use Wall layouts that make him take a longer route.
