First, let's break down the stats of the Fireball:

Level	Damage Radius	Total Damage	Damage per Second Increase
1	4 tiles	1,500	21
2	4 tiles	1,500	24
3	4 tiles	1,700	27
4	4 tiles	1,700	30
5	4 tiles	1,800	33
6	4 tiles	1,950	36
7	4 tiles	1,950	40
8	4 tiles	2,050	44
9	5 tiles	2,200	47
10	5 tiles	2,200	51
11	5 tiles	2,350	56
12	5 tiles	2,650	60
13	5 tiles	2,650	63
14	5 tiles	2,750	67
15	5 tiles	3,100	71
16	5 tiles	3,100	74
17	5 tiles	3,250	77
18	6 tiles	3,400	80
19	6 tiles	3,400	82
20	6 tiles	3,500	84
21	6 tiles	3,650	87
22	6 tiles	3,650	89
23	6 tiles	3,750	92
24	6 tiles	3,900	94
25	6 tiles	3,900	96
26	6 tiles	3,950	99
27	6 tiles	4,100	101

The Fireball's DPS scaling is represented in this table, showcasing its incremental power as it upgrades to higher levels. While the scaling may seem impressive, the real intrigue lies in the two significant changes in the damage radius, increasing at level 9 and level 18.

Essentially, the total area of effect damage doubles when the damage radius expands from four at level 8 to six tiles at level 18. This revelation underscores the equipment's potential for widespread destruction, particularly in tightly packed enemy defenses. Hence, upgrades are a necessary part of this equipment, significantly enhancing its damage potential.

Clash of Clans Fireball uses and strategies

Understanding when and how to deploy the Fireball is crucial for maximizing its effectiveness. While the Warden is traditionally viewed as a supporting character, the Fireball allows players to leverage their hero for substantial damage output, especially in situations requiring additional firepower.

Equipping the Grand Warden with the Eternal Tome and Fireball for Hero Dive is one of the strategies suitable for the Grand Warden-based attacks.

Additionally, utilizing the Fireball alongside Archer Queen's Giant Arrow allows players to create devastating combinations capable of destroying every building in the base except the Townhall, which will require an additional three Earthquake spells to destroy. The realm of possibilities will further increase when Clash of Clans Fireball equipment is widely used within the community.

Clash of Clans Fireball drawbacks

The Clash of Clans Fireball's synergy with other Hero Equipment is a topic of concern. While it excels in specific setups and tactics, its compatibility with other Grand Warden equipment is still debated.

As a result, the premier Hero Equipment for the Grand Warden, the Eternal Tome, cannot reach its full potential when paired with the Fireball due to differing strategic approaches. The optimal use of the Eternal Tome is within the core of a base, whereas the Fireball thrives when utilized at a distance from the base's core to maximize its effectiveness.

The recommended upgrade levels for the Clash of Clans Fireball Hero Equipment are 9 and 18. However, reaching these levels requires substantial quantities of Starry, Shiny, and Glowy ores. Not every player possesses such abundant ore reserves in their storage.

Therefore, it is wise to spend these ores for upgrades only when you have amassed enough to reach either level 9 or level 18. Otherwise, avoid targeting intermediate-level upgrades, as they may not justify the investment in the game.

The burning question remains: Should players invest in the Fireball Hero Equipment? The answer is nuanced. While Fireball shows promise and can be a game-changer in specific scenarios, its overall synergy and place in established strategies are still evolving. Additionally, the scarcity of Glowy Ore, a crucial resource for upgrades, adds another layer of consideration.

Until the ores scarcity is reduced or if you possess the essential equipment like Frozen Arrow, Giant Gauntlet, Eternal Tome, Haste Vial, Royal Gem, and Invisibility Vial, it might be prudent to hold off on fully committing to Fireball upgrades.

In conclusion, obtaining the Fireball Hero Equipment during the ongoing event can be a wise choice. However, the decision to upgrade it hinges on personal preference and the availability of your current ore reserves.
