Druid in Clash of Clans (Image via Reddit/r/ClashofClansLeaks)

Druid is the latest addition to the vast roster of troops in Clash of Clans. This Dark Troop, when deployed, acts as a Healer, healing up to five allies nearby at the same time. However, once it transforms into the Bear, they become the destroyer of enemy bases. The second COC update Sneak Peek talked about this new unit. Per the official Clash of Clans June update patch notes:

• The Druid is the very first unique new troop that starts off as a ground healer. However, after a few seconds, or if knocked out, the Druid will shapeshift into a Bear!
• Healing details: Ground, Jumps.
• Healing: Long-range projectile that bounces to other friendly troops nearby. The healing hits up to 5 troops but will not bounce to Siege Machines. It can target both ground and air troops, and the projectile can bounce between air and ground troops.
• Bear details: Ground, slow movement speed, does not Jump, and has high HP.
• Melee Attack: Melee range, targets defenses.
• Only after the shapeshifted form loses all HP will the Druid be permanently knocked out.
• The Druid is unlocked in Town Hall 14, requires Dark Elixir Barracks level 11, and comes with 4 levels: 2 at Town Hall 14 and 1 for Town Hall 15 and 16 each.

Hard Mode is another great inclusion in the game in this update. When you attack your in-game friends' or Clanmates' bases in the friendly challenges and friendly wars, you can select Hard Mode to check the full strength of the troops.

Clash of Clans June Update patch notes: Quality of Life Changes

• If any of your Equipment Ore storage is full, the Blacksmith will display a bubble “Full!”, and will cycle thorough the icons of the Ore types that are full.

Clash of Clans June Update patch notes: Bug fixes

The Clash of Clans June Update patch notes has also promised some bug fixes such as:

• Previously, Yetis would spawn 1 yetimite when they took accumulated damage of 600, but if they took 1800 damage in one single attack, it would still spawn only 1 yetimite. We changed it so that when taking damage, it spawns 1 yetimite per 600 damage taken; for example, if a yeti takes 1800 damage, it will spawn 3 yetimites at once.
• Fixed error stating “Gold is not a valid reward type” or “Elixir is not a valid reward type” - which would occasionally happen when the game was loading.
• The duration of Jump and Freeze Spells in the spell info screen is shown even if the spell has no upgrade levels.
