Giant Gauntlet: The King of Equipment

The Giant Gauntlet is widely considered the single most powerful Legendary Hero Equipment in the game. It is unlocked during special events or purchased via the Trader using Gems.

Key Mechanics

Upon activation, the Barbarian King grows to giant size, granting him:

  • Splash Damage: Attacks strike all surrounding targets in a 2.5-tile radius.
  • Damage Reduction: Cuts all incoming damage (including Single Inferno beams) by up to 60% at level 27.
  • Self-Healing: Provides a steady passive health recovery pool during activation.

Upgrade Priority

Prioritize spending your Glowy and Starry ores to push the Gauntlet to level 15, and eventually level 27. The leap in damage reduction makes the King virtually unkillable in core base fights.

Max Level by Town Hall

Giant Gauntlet is first available at Town Hall 8 and reaches max level 27 at Town Hall 18.
