About the Witch in Clash of Clans Dark Elixir Troops
The Witch is a Clash of Clans dark elixir troop, trained in the Dark Barracks. It can attack both. Because it deals splash damage, the Witch is strongest against groups of buildings and swarms of defending troops rather than a single tough target. Each Witch costs 12 housing space in your army camps.
The Witch first becomes available at Town Hall 9. At level 1 it has 300 hitpoints, growing to 650 hitpoints once fully upgraded to level 8. At its maximum level it deals 260 damage per second. Taking the Witch all the way to level 8 costs roughly 841,500 Dark Elixir and about 40d 18h of upgrade time.
With a movement speed of 12 and a range of 4 tiles, the Witch fits armies that need ranged support from a safe distance.
Among all Dark Elixir Troops in Clash of Clans, the Witch deals the highest damage per second at maximum level.
Witch strengths and weaknesses
Strengths
- Its splash damage clears tight groups of buildings and swarms of defending troops in one hit.
- It deals the most damage per second of any unit in the Dark Elixir Troops category.
Weaknesses
- Its modest hitpoints leave it exposed to splash defences such as Wizard Towers, Mortars and Bomb Towers.
- At 12 housing space it is expensive to field in numbers, so it is usually brought as a small core of an army.
