Clash of Clans Defense DPS Calculator

This calculator sums the damage output of Clash of Clans defenses so you can see exactly how much firepower is pointed at a single spot on the map. Select the defensive buildings, guardians, and defending heroes covering a tile and the tool reports combined DPS and damage per hit. Values are TH18 maximums verified against the game wiki, including the Season 4 defenses.

The practical use is troop survival planning. Knowing that a pocket is covered by 1,400 combined DPS rather than 800 changes whether an Ice Golem soak is enough, how long a Freeze needs to land, and whether your Queen can walk in without a Rage. The Rage Tower buff (+60%) is a single toggle, so you can compare the same pocket with and without it before committing.

Competitive play runs on different numbers, so Esports Mode is a toggle too. Turning it on applies the tournament battle modifiers to every card: defensive buildings and defending heroes gain +25% DPS, guardians gain +20%, and hero equipment is capped three levels lower for Common pieces. On the healing side, the Grand Warden's Rage Gem can be switched on with its own level selector — the aura does not speed Healers up, it multiplies how much each heal lands for, which is exactly what decides whether a Queen Walk or Warden Walk survives a pocket.

What the calculator covers

Frequently asked questions

Which Town Hall level are the numbers based on?

TH18 maximum levels, verified against the Clash of Clans wiki including the Season 4 defenses.

Why does damage per hit matter separately from DPS?

Burst defenses can one-shot a unit that a higher-DPS but faster-firing defense would not, so DPH decides survival against single hits.

Does it account for the Rage Tower?

Yes. The +60% Rage Tower buff can be toggled on and off to compare both cases.

Does it support Esports Mode?

Yes. Esports Mode applies +25% DPS to defensive buildings and defending heroes, +20% to guardians, and caps Common hero equipment three levels lower, matching the current tournament battle modifiers.

Does the Warden's Rage Gem affect Healers?

Yes. The Rage Gem aura increases Healer output by the same percentage it increases damage, from +15% at level 1 up to +50% at level 18. It does not increase attack speed and does not stack with Rage Spells.

Are Builder Base defenses included?

No. The calculator covers Home Village defenses only.
