6. Other Collectibles & Special Items
- CWL Medals: Earned from Clan War Leagues. Used to buy Hammers, Potions, and Resource packs from the CWL shop.
- Clan Game Points: Not a physical item; earned by completing tasks. Used to claim Magic Items and Decorations.
- Season Pass (Gold Pass) Rewards: Exclusive cosmetic items like Royal Champion Scenery, Hero Skins (e.g., Pixel King, Gladiator Queen), and unique decorations. These are cosmetic and do not affect gameplay.
- Goblin Builder (consumable): Hired from the Trader; speeds up a single builder for a limited time (e.g., 1 day). Obtained via special events.
- Hero Skins: Cosmetic appearances for each hero (e.g., Shadow Queen, Ice Warden). Purchased with Gems or from Season Pass. No stat changes.
- Obstacle Statues: Like the Clash of Clans 10th Anniversary statue, Christmas trees. Can be placed as decorations. Some are rare and tradable between players via special events.
- The Trader's Inventory: The Trader (in Builder Base) offers rotating items like Potions, Books, and Decorations for Elixir or Gems.
- Gems: Prioritize spending Gems on Builder Huts (5th Builder costs 2000 Gems) and Training Boost. Avoid speeding up small timers.
- Magic Items: Use Runes when storage is empty to maximize value. Use Hammers only on the longest and most expensive upgrades (e.g., Inferno Tower, X-Bow, Hero to max). Books are best saved for upgrades that require 14+ days.
- Pets: Upgrade Unicorn first for Archer Queen progression, then Phoenix for any hero.
- Hero Equipment: Prioritize unlocking Giant Gauntlet or Vampstache for Barbarian King, Frozen Arrow for Archer Queen, Fireball for Grand Warden. Electro Boots for Royal Champion.

- Items in your inventory do not expire, but their benefits can be lost if you max out your base (e.g., Books cannot be used on max buildings). Use them wisely.
- Magic Items have a cap: you can hold up to 10 of each (except Runes: 1 each). Overflow from rewards goes to your Treasury (if it has space) or is lost.
- The Gold Pass (Season Pass) is the best value for Gems and Magic Items, costing $6.99 USD. It provides instant items and a 20% discount on upgrades.
- Some items, like Super Potion, are no longer obtainable. Older players may still have them in inventory, but they are not recommended for buying.
