Key Takeaways

  • The Archer Queen unlocks at Town Hall 8 and maxes at level 110 at Town Hall 18 with Hero Hall 12.
  • Level 1 to 110 costs 15,161,500 Dark Elixir and 403 days of builder time, before boosts.
  • The TH18 step (level 100 to 110) is the biggest: 4,490,000 Dark Elixir and 80 days, more than the TH16 and TH17 steps combined.
  • From level 96 every upgrade takes 8 days, so at the top end Dark Elixir, not time, is what holds you back.
  • A 20% Gold Pass with Hammer Jam brings any upgrade down to 40% of the base cost and time.

Archer Queen Max Level by Town Hall

Each Town Hall raises the Queen's cap, and each cap needs a matching Hero Hall level. The table shows the Dark Elixir and time to climb from one cap to the next, so you can see what a new Town Hall will ask of you before you upgrade it.

Archer Queen max level by Town Hall: TH8 10, TH9 30, TH10 40, TH11 50, TH12 65, TH13 75, TH14 85, TH15 90, TH16 95, TH17 100, TH18 110.

Where the Dark Elixir Goes

The early levels are cheap. Everything up to level 50 (TH11) costs 1,626,500 Dark Elixir in total, about a tenth of the full climb. Levels 50 to 110 take the other 13.5 million and 320 of the 403 days.

The TH12 jump

Levels 50 to 65 cost 1,490,000 Dark Elixir and 50 days, the first step that is clearly bigger than the ones before it.

The TH18 wall

Levels 100 to 110 add ten levels at once instead of five, and each one costs between 400,000 and 490,000 Dark Elixir. Start saving before you hit TH18, or the Queen will sit idle while your storage fills. With Town Hall 19 expected in late November, now is the time to finish her TH18 levels.

Time levels out, cost does not

Upgrade time stops rising at 8 days from level 96. The cost keeps going up by 5,000 to 20,000 Dark Elixir per level all the way to 110.

How Much Boosts Save

Here is the TH18 climb, level 100 to 110, with the boosts the calculator supports. Gold Pass and Hammer Jam cut both cost and time. Builder Potions only cut time, by 9 hours each.

BoostsDark ElixirTime
None4,490,00080 days
Gold Pass 10%4,041,00072 days
Gold Pass 20%3,592,00064 days
Gold Pass 20% + Hammer Jam1,796,00032 days

Boosts multiply: 20% off, then half off, leaves 40% of the base. Enter your own levels in the calculator above to add potions.

Before You Start an Upgrade

  • Time it around wars. An upgrading Queen can't attack in Clan War or CWL, so start long upgrades right after a war ends.
  • Have the full cost ready. Dark Elixir is paid when the upgrade starts, not as it runs.
  • Check the Hero Hall first. Every level needs a minimum Hero Hall level; the table below lists it.
  • Time big upgrades for Hammer Jam. Starting a 490,000 Dark Elixir upgrade during Hammer Jam saves far more than using it on an early level.

On my TH18 account, MoonLight #9280QPL8G (31 October 2026), my Queen is at level 110, maxed. I upgraded her right after CWL ended. My King is at 106, Warden 84, Champion maxed at 55 and Prince 90, while my Duke is at level 17 and I’m waiting for the next Hammer Jam before the next Town Hall update.
