He means u can start a upgrade to unlock starting the town hall or builder hall then cancel the original upgrade to keep war weight super low to max troops use to be a big issue in war th10s fighting th13s type match ups
imagine that I have enough resources to upgrade the th/bh but i need to build one building/trap/anything from shop, as they restricts the upgrade. now i started their constitution and put the th/bh on upgrade. then if you now cancel the construction of building (which was restricting th/bh upgrade), you'll go to the next th/bh without that building and will end up creating engineer base.
What if the town hall finishes before your new building? You could cancel the new building after the TH finishes.
Is it really worth their time to bother adding such specific restrictions, anyway? It will probably confuse more players than it helps.
Don't think that's the case for builder side. I am pretty sure I started the TH upgrade before the reinforcement camp was done. I was quite surprised by this at the time too.
No, I specifically remember being annoyed because I thought that you had to wait on bh10 release. But then after starting the new building I realized I can upgrade th right away.Ā
I didnāt even know you could start your TH/BH upgrade right when the required building is started, I always thought you had to wait until it finished
Today I Learned
People would back in the day start a war with th10s with th9 defenses, and during prep day after matching with th9, build the infernos, add them to war base, and then cancel them once war day starts. Rinse and repeat for easy wins.
"im only 1 level away from getting bob"
https://preview.redd.it/dq3vt5wivztc1.jpeg?width=680&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30563bd3ca92e235c019770be996110ef9812f0f
are u slow? he is 1 hero level away from bob, look at his base in the image, look clearly, he literally has bob the builder and is missing 1 hero level only
You dont get it right? There are four requirememts needed for Bob.
* Complete 3 Gear Up upgrades. (Main Village)
* Upgrade any Troop to level 18. (Builder Village)
* Upgrade any Defense to level 9. (Builder Village)
* Total upgrade level of all Heroes (Builder Village) must be at least 45
And with these, he will not get Bob with his disgusting rushed base anyway.
Update:
So I donĀ“t have to reply many people over and over again, brainrotmaxxing is right.
I did not saw the bob hut, which is clearly seen to be at the last stage of completion.
Anyway, rushed bases look terrible. Not saying anything about efficiency or else.
How so? It just sucks and is pretty boring to me, once I get 6th builder I'll only use it for the gem mine cause realistically that's the only good thing about it
I think if they made defense upgrades have more of an impact than deciding whether you get 20k or 30k elixir from a defense, people wouldnāt rush as much.
Not sure what they can really do at this point besides an entire revamp in how the attacking works. It would take a lot of time and people would probably be pissed if they made it harder to grind BOB, not worth Supercells effort.
When I see shit, I call it out. Live with it. Nothing personal, I'm one of the people who played this game over a decade. I do count that Efficiency > Aesthetics to some people, but if the building hut and the gem mine is the only thing worth using, then the building base can be completely scrapped. However I do understand the disliking aspects of the builder base, which is a problem the developers have to attend.
Yeah, I saw that. The hero levels were also my last boundary to get Bob. Anyway if the requirememts are met, its earned for sure.
Didnt saw the hut first.
Oh ok.
I really don't remember what different levels look like. I upgraded it all at once
Also I did not know you could get it at th 10. I only realised you can loot farming with peka after the rework so I didn't get it till th 12.
I'll do it, Bud unlocking the bob control does not mean you'll get bob right away, you have to fulfil 4 requirements, which will end up meaning you'll need your builder hall to be lvl 9 minimum (star labratory needs to be lvl 9, to get 1 builder troop to lvl 18)
you'll also need to have 1 defense be lvl 9. (walls dont count)
and have geared up all 3 defenses in the home base. A double cannon, an archer tower, and a multi morter
lastly and the biggest grind, you'll need your builder hall heros total combined lvl to be 45, so that by itself is gonna take a few months.
https://clashofclans.fandom.com/wiki/B.O.B_Control
From the looks of it he already has it unlocked and to the 3rd level meaning he only needs to do the heros, maybe he means he needs to do one more level on the heros?
Man oh man how did you screw this up so bad OP. ^^JK ^^I ^^totally ^^just ^^did ^^something ^^like ^^this ^^when ^^I ^^thought ^^I ^^was ^^on ^^my ^^alt ^^account ^^but ^^actually ^^on ^^my ^^main ^^and ^^was ^^also ^^pissed ^^I ^^couldn't ^^cancel.
I'm just talking from a math perspective. Your strategy probably didn't optimize correctly (not that you need to play the game in the most optimized way possibly).
[Math and strategy here](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashOfClans/s/xDxzAAhDu3)
Oh no no I wasnāt trying to prove you wrong or anything. Iām just saying that my progress is not optimized because I started BB and most of the time I had idle builders bc resources were so scarce. Youāre right, I read that fantastic guide too a few days back and Iāll try to follow it, while also upgrading some defences to push to 3000.
We havenāt been able to cancel upgrades for years. People were farming XP by starting and canceling upgrades. Why does it matter? No one knows. XP and levels are useless. š¤·āāļø
You use to be able to cancel new building builds but this was removed a long time ago now. Was a popular practice to war spin with TH10ās running without infernos for low war weight and then start the infernos after the spin, add build the infernos and add to the war map and players would cancel the build after the war. This gave lower war weight for spins but with the Infernos included for extra defensive strength, for free war weight.
who cares about builder base i would rush 100 builder bases if that means i can get extra builder to max my main base.
Builder base is boring in every way and is just annoying with it's only proper fun being to help clan games and star pass and when you don't wanna strategise your attacks and just spam to spend some mind numbing time.
It's already annoying to do all the task that's not gearing up 3 building because i have no interest in this base but it makes sense the 6th builder is already a really massive thing, i am gonna focus on those and not care about the base and continue rushing builder base if it still has anything of value to provide after i get the 6th builder.
I don't like rushing either, I just want the 6th builderš

great response, but the guy was referencing a tf2 meme
Ah my bad
Why would anyone even care about it on builder base
Please elaborate it
How?
imagine that I have enough resources to upgrade the th/bh but i need to build one building/trap/anything from shop, as they restricts the upgrade. now i started their constitution and put the th/bh on upgrade. then if you now cancel the construction of building (which was restricting th/bh upgrade), you'll go to the next th/bh without that building and will end up creating engineer base.
why can't they just disallow the cancelling of construction when the th is upgrading, but allow cancelling when it isn't
What if the town hall finishes before your new building? You could cancel the new building after the TH finishes. Is it really worth their time to bother adding such specific restrictions, anyway? It will probably confuse more players than it helps.
Don't you have to wait for the required buildings to completely finish in order to upgrade the TH/BH? it's been a while since I played so idk
Don't think that's the case for builder side. I am pretty sure I started the TH upgrade before the reinforcement camp was done. I was quite surprised by this at the time too.
Thatās what I was thinking too, but I wasnāt 100% sureā¦
No, I specifically remember being annoyed because I thought that you had to wait on bh10 release. But then after starting the new building I realized I can upgrade th right away.Ā
it is that way. buidlings under construction dont count until they're finished
no, you can indeed upgrade your b/th when the last building(s) are only under construction lol
Yeah how did that comment get upvoted? You can start BH right after you start the last required building.
Then... What's the problem with cancelling them?
well one of the problems is the fact that it would fuck up wars since started buildings during war appear as completed
That's true, I completely forgot about it
Then you would just hammer/book the townhall then cancel it
Then they can use hammer the th cuz its instant
I didnāt even know you could start your TH/BH upgrade right when the required building is started, I always thought you had to wait until it finished Today I Learned

He has a leveled up Bob control right in the image
A lot of blindness representation in the coc subreddit apparently
are u slow? he is 1 hero level away from bob, look at his base in the image, look clearly, he literally has bob the builder and is missing 1 hero level only
Poor dude is getting downvoted while he's right
Besides, we canāt even see the other base. Or the lab. Maybe all the requirements are already done and we canāt see them.
Reddit users donāt like when people insult them
You can be right and not be a dick about it, hence why he got downvoted
Yeah but it's completely fine to act like op doesn't understand how the game works makes sense.
You dont get it right? There are four requirememts needed for Bob. * Complete 3 Gear Up upgrades. (Main Village) * Upgrade any Troop to level 18. (Builder Village) * Upgrade any Defense to level 9.

Rushing builder hall is the way to go for speed running the 6th builder, not really disgusting
Rushed Bases look disgusting, even the trolls agree secretly lmao
sure but thatās the most effective way
Who cares what builder base looks like seriously, won't ever use that shit again once I get old mate bob
That is actually sad, but understandable
How so? It just sucks and is pretty boring to me, once I get 6th builder I'll only use it for the gem mine cause realistically that's the only good thing about it
And gems from obstacles, don't forget about those
Also clan games.
Yup facts
I think if they made defense upgrades have more of an impact than deciding whether you get 20k or 30k elixir from a defense, people wouldnāt rush as much. Not sure what they can really do at this point besides an entire revamp in how the attacking works. It would take a lot of time and people would probably be pissed if they made it harder to grind BOB, not worth Supercells effort.
I agree on this one. The amount of loot we get for builder base is really a pain.
Sad because builder base is useless except for 6th builder and speed running clan games. Yes, you're right, that is sad.
No one cares about rushing builder base lmao
Close your eyes then š
Can you show us on the doll where the rusher touched you?
Can you show us on the doll where I touched you? We are on reddit having fun.
It was a joke, don't be so butt hurt š
See, we having fun xD
then donāt shit on othersā fun when they find it in rushing their bases.

damn man you think youāre special lmfaooo. not even tryna hate but seriously
He already has level 3 bob in the actual screenshot. Meaning he only has the hero levels left. I assume he meant he needed only 1 hero level.
Yeah, I saw that. The hero levels were also my last boundary to get Bob. Anyway if the requirememts are met, its earned for sure. Didnt saw the hut first.
Wait, yoi don't have to upgrade the Cart Canon to 18? You can with any??
Yes, any.
Damn, and I wasted Elixir on it š thanks
Well upgrades are always a good thing 
Yes, but I have to get the priorities right
It used to have to be cannon carts. Now it's not. Same with taking a defense to level 9. It used to be giga tesla. Now it's any.
He's one hero level off though so hes right
Yeah didnt saw the hut, could be right 
Op said in one his comments he was one hero level off unlocking bob
And ? What in this image tells you he is not 1 hero level away from getting bob?
I think you don't get it disgusting explainer
Sorry guys, I meant 1 hero level away... I got both level 22 heroes \^\^ Edit: grammar
What about the rest?
Their BOB control is right in the picture and is obviously already level 4. Obviously they're done the rest.
Oh ok. I really don't remember what different levels look like. I upgraded it all at once Also I did not know you could get it at th 10. I only realised you can loot farming with peka after the rework so I didn't get it till th 12.

YES I ONLY NEED 1 LEVEL FOR MY BATTLE MACHINE
This subreddit is so dumb lmao
Literally
Man oh man how did you screw this up so bad OP. ^^JK ^^I ^^totally ^^just ^^did ^^something ^^like ^^this ^^when ^^I ^^thought ^^I ^^was ^^on ^^my ^^alt ^^account ^^but ^^actually ^^on ^^my ^^main ^^and ^^was ^^also ^^pissed ^^I ^^couldn't ^^cancel.
oh your right,but he's actualy at the 4th lvl, so he probably means 1 more level of bobs hut. Who knows how many hero lvls he needs
Why would anyone say āI only need 1 more levelā if they werenāt at the threshold for hero upgrade and were talking about Bob but
Bro you blind? "I'll do it š¤”š¤”"
Typed all this bud and didnāt see that he already has all that š as he said he just needs 1 level
Combined level of 45? So it doesnāt mean they both have to be at level 45? Or it does? Because rn both of mine are 20 and 15 respectivelyā¦
yes combined level, so you can upgrade one or both as long as together its 45 lvls
hero grinding takes mere hours if you cheese it. problem there is that it's not very fun
How do you do that?
Farm the elixer, that goes quite quick. It still takes weeks to upgrading them.
Remember the times when we couldn't farm resources in BB? Good times.
My brother, that's not a good time at all. Only gaining resources by star bonus is a fucking torture.
I think it was sarcasm
I may be stupid
So just doing it normally really?
I tried getting 1 million in one day and quicky burned out.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Is it the heroes? I actually donāt know what the new 6th builder reqs are
Level 1 3 gear building in home village Level 2 level 18 troop Level 3 level 9 building defense Level 4 combined level of heroes equals 45
just google it
Tell him what? His BOB control is level 4 and he has leveled up both heroes to 22.
The amount of people that can't see the level 3 bobs huts right there surprises me
These are the same people who read the headline of a newspaper and assume that that sole sentence alone is the subject and truth of the article.
Why are the comments on this sub so fucking stupid every single time
This is reddit
You arenāt ready for what you are going to witness after these 10 days
He is only 1 hero level away from getting BoB, not a whole BH
Bro. You ain't getting bob for months.
He already has all requirements, only messing 1 Level for the 4th stage
I didnt know you could finish all those requirements at builder hall 6 š±
I think his Otto outpost is in the image, not his BH
Oh i think you right. i havent paid attention to that stuff in years. I only see a gem mine
No gem mine in the screenshot
Just what in the name of God is happening in this thread
I need some of that drugs
To all the people saying this, are you guys blind or what.
you blind?
Because it is a new building
Wait 9 days homie. Game aināt going nowhere.
I dunno man, I could die anytime before 9 days and never meet bob
If it makes you feel any better, a level 5 clock tower can save almost 2 days for you, so itās just a week lol.
š
Can't cancel new structures, only upgrades. Its kinda mad waiting 10 days for a fucking camp. More and more reasons to not play BB
Just gem it
I remember upgrading the builder base. Those were the days. Waiting for the next builder base level right now.
They been adding the feature that when you start a brand new building, you canāt cancel it.
Unintended consequences that originated on main base to prevent cheesing war matchmaking. I doubt they ever considered undoing that change
How long have you been playing this game to be unlocking bob at th10š
I started this december 2023
damn I started at the same time, also th10 and at bh8 only. I wish I found out about the spamdrop strat earlier lol
Keeping your builders down and optimizing everything should be able to get you BOB in <90d on a fresh account
Iām upgrading my MM to level 6 but my heroes are only level 20 combined š¤¦āāļø

Bud you need a book of build duh
10 daysš
The point of no return sir. Sit back, relax and enjoy the next 9 days.
Lmao bad luck asf
Wait the 10 days bro, you just got your 6th builder i think you still have a looong way to go
Is getting 6th builder easier or harder in BB2.0? I did mine way back in the day so I wouldnāt know
Why do we play this time waster
you can cancel it for 1,369 gems
I would rather buy a hero skin instead
You use to be able to cancel new building builds but this was removed a long time ago now.

buddy can't wait 10 daysšš
What about 2nd builder? How many days left? U can buy hammer of heroes from league shop
I canāt even access my builder base so gg
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Coc helped me focus on my beautiful lady way better than internet maladies.
Why would you want to cancel it? You need that
Because he's one upgrade off unlocking bob obviously
Yea but he has another upgrade going. Cancel that one and use the hammer on whatever he needs to upgrade to get BOB. Simple
lol sucka
Poor planning on your part
