In this guide, we'll give you all the key details you need to know about the Spiky Ball's abilities and stats in Clash of Clans. We'll also explain how you can unlock this special Hero Equipment.
The Spiky Ball is an Epic-rarity Hero Equipment that was introduced to Clash of Clans as part of the special 'Clash with Haaland' event.
This piece of equipment works amazingly well when paired with the Barbarian King. The Barbarian King and Spiky Ball combo presents you with an incredibly potent option should you need to clear Walls or Defenses to funnel your troops in. Thanks to its devastating active ability, the Spiky Ball allows this Hero to act as a spear to pierce through enemy bases with ease.
Simply put, the Spiky Ball is a destructive force that's not to be reckoned with especially if you're on the receiving end of its abilities.
Spiky Ball Abilities And Stats
The Spiky Ball has an active ability that, when activated, sends the ball forward toward enemy targets. The ball will then bounce between a set number of targets – the number of which depends on the Spiky Ball's level – and deal damage in the process.
There are currently 27 levels that you can upgrade the Spiky Ball to. Like other Hero Equipment, you will need to use Shiny Ore, Glowy Ore, and Starry Ore to level it up.
