How to spend Clash of Clans' Gems

Although spending Gems in Clash of Clans is a matter of personal choice, you should use them mindfully and avoid squandering them on items like event souvenirs and decor.

Gems are used to enhance your gameplay as well as add cosmetics to your inventory. However, the best way to use Clash of Clans' Gems is by purchasing Hero Equipment or magic items from the Trader Shop that enhance your attacking and defensive abilities. You can also consider purchasing Hero Books with Gems since these magic items instantly upgrade your Heroes.

If you have enough of these items, you can go for Hero skins, such as League King, Queen, Warden, or Champion skins.
