Hero catch-up calculator
How long until every hero is maxed for your Town Hall — one at a time, or with all your builders on heroes.
Heroes use builders
Heroes are upgraded by your builders, so every hero upgrade takes a builder away from your buildings. The calculator shows two answers: one hero at a time (you can always attack) and every builder on heroes (the fastest possible).
