All Clash of Clans Hero Levels by Town Hall

Clash of Clans has six Home Village heroes and two Builder Base Hero Machines. At Town Hall 18, the current Home Village maximums are level 110 for Barbarian King and Archer Queen, 95 for Minion Prince, 85 for Grand Warden, 55 for Royal Champion and 25 for Dragon Duke. Your Hero Hall—not the Town Hall by itself—sets the upgrade ceiling.

Clash of Clans hero max levels by Town Hall

A dash means that hero is not available at that Town Hall. The table lists permanent Home Village upgrade caps, not the level shown during a temporary Hero Potion, event or preview boost.

The early Barbarian King is a special case. Supercell says he can be used from Town Hall 4, but you cannot upgrade him or equip Hero Equipment until Town Hall 7. His permanent cap remains level 10 across TH4–7.

Hero Hall unlocks and active hero slots

The Hero Hall manages Home Village heroes. Upgrading it can unlock another hero, raise every hero’s cap and increase the number you may select—but owning six heroes does not mean deploying all six in one attack.

*At TH4–6, the early Barbarian King slot is for attacking rather than defending.

What each hero row means

• Barbarian King and Archer Queen: both now reach level 110 at TH18. The June 2026 additions account for the jump from the earlier level-100 cap.
• Minion Prince: unlocks at Hero Hall 3/TH9 and caps at 95. If you are approaching that unlock, the separate Minion Prince unlock guide covers the building path.
• Grand Warden: uses Elixir rather than Dark Elixir for upgrades and reaches 85 at TH18.
• Royal Champion: arrives at Hero Hall 7/TH13 and reaches 55 at TH18.
• Dragon Duke: Supercell introduced the sixth Home Village hero in 2026. He unlocks at Hero Hall 9/TH15, starts at level 1 and reaches 25 at TH18.

Hero level and Hero Equipment level are separate progression systems. Upgrading a hero improves its base statistics; equipment changes or strengthens its abilities. Use the current Clash of Clans Hero Equipment guide when deciding where to spend Ores.

Builder Base hero max levels

Battle Machine and Battle Copter belong to Builder Base, so putting them in the Town Hall table creates a false comparison. Their caps follow Builder Hall progress.

Supercell’s current Builder Base documentation confirms that Battle Copter unlocks at BH8 and begins at level 15. If you need the rest of that roster, the Builder Base troop list keeps troop progression separate from Hero Machines.

How to plan hero upgrades without stalling

1. Upgrade the Hero Hall early at a new Town Hall. A hero cannot pass the cap for the current Hero Hall, even if your resources are full.
2. Keep at least one preferred attack core usable. With six owned heroes but four active slots, rotate upgrades around the army you use for farming, War or Ranked.
3. Spend Books and Hammers on the longest waits. Costs and times can be reduced in balance updates, so compare the live upgrade screen instead of following an old fixed chart.
4. Do not neglect equipment. A high hero level does not automatically upgrade the two equipment pieces selected for that hero.
5. Upgrade the Town Hall for a reason, not just another cap. Review the broader Town Hall progression guide before moving up with an underdeveloped offense.

FAQ

What is the highest hero level in Clash of Clans?

The highest numerical hero level is 110, shared by Barbarian King and Archer Queen at TH18. Different heroes use different scales, so a level-55 Royal Champion is at her TH18 cap rather than half-finished.

How many heroes can you use at once?

The current maximum is four active Home Village heroes. Hero Hall levels 7–12 provide four slots even though the game now has six Home Village heroes.

Does a Hero Potion permanently raise levels?

No. Supercell describes the Hero Potion as a temporary attack boost to the maximum allowed by your current Town Hall. The actual upgrade level and Hero Hall cap do not change.

Why can’t I upgrade a hero to the number in the table?

Check the Hero Hall level first. The Town Hall allows the next Hero Hall, but that building must be completed before its higher caps apply. You also need a free Builder and enough of the required resource.

Bottom line

Use the Town Hall table for Home Village heroes and the Builder Hall table for Hero Machines. At the current endgame, TH18 supports six owned heroes, four active slots and caps of 110/110/95/85/55/25. The most reliable in-game check is still the Hero Hall upgrade screen, especially after a balance update.
