QUICK ANSWERS
TH10 Upgrade Priority FAQ
What Should I Upgrade First at TH10?
Start with Laboratory, Army Camp, Clan Castle, Inferno Tower. Then follow the Town Hall-specific order shown above instead of trying to upgrade everything at once.
Should Offense or Defense Come First at TH10?
For most players, offense should come first because stronger farming and war attacks fund every later upgrade. Build the offensive foundation, then improve the strongest defenses.
Should I Max Everything Before Leaving TH10?
You do not need every collector, trap, or wall completed before moving on, but your main army, key buildings, and Hero progression should be strong enough to farm and attack reliably at the next Town Hall.
Is This the Only Correct Upgrade Order?
No. This is a balanced recommendation. Builders, Magic Items, preferred armies, war schedule, and available resources can justify changing the order.
