Ore & equipment FAQ
How do you get ore in Clash of Clans?
Ore comes from winning attacks with your daily star bonus, the weekly raid-medal trader offers, equipment events, and monthly trader deals. Shiny ore is the most common, Glowy is scarcer, and Starry is the rarest. The calculator models each income source so you can see your real monthly rate.
How much does it cost to max hero equipment?
Common equipment maxes at level 18 and epic equipment at level 27, with costs rising steeply at higher levels. Epics also need Starry ore at every third level from level 9 up. The calculator shows the exact remaining ore cost for every equipment at once.
Which hero equipment should I upgrade first?
Prioritize the equipment you actually attack with. A maxed piece you use every war beats spreading ore thin across everything. Load your player tag and the calculator shows the cost and time-to-earn for each piece, so you can compare upgrades before committing rare Glowy and Starry ore.
Is the ore calculator free?
Yes! ClashRecord is completely free as well as ad-free, with no download. You only need an account if you want to save villages and track progress over time.
