The most noticeable change in TH 17 is the combination of the Town Hall and Eagle Artillery into a single super building called the Inferno Artillery. Its main features include:

  • Four-Directional Attack: Targets up to four troops simultaneously. If fewer than four targets are present, it focuses attacks on the available ones.
  • Area Damage Effect: After attacking, it leaves behind an area that deals continuous damage to both ground and air troops.
  • Loss of Death Bomb: TH 17 no longer explodes when destroyed, prompting players to adjust their defensive strategies.

2. Giga Bomb: A Lethal Trap

This new trap offers:

  • Massive Explosion: Deals heavy damage across a wide area.
  • Pushback Effect: Causes enemy troops to be knocked back, making it ideal for breaking up large clusters of troops.

3. Firespitter: High-Accuracy Defense

  • Conical Attack Area: Players can choose the direction of the attack, which covers a specific area.
