Core Stats at Max Level
Pro Tips & Strategy
Hog Riders ignore walls completely — deploy them to target defenses directly without worrying about wall breakers or jump spells.
Always bring Heal Spells when using mass Hog attacks. Drop heals pre-emptively where you expect Giant Bombs or clusters of defenses.
Look for suspicious gaps in bases — they often hide double Giant Bombs that can wipe out your Hogs instantly. Scout carefully before deploying.
Pair with Queen Walk to eliminate heroes and Clan Castle troops before deploying Hogs. Clean kills lead to clean three-stars.
Combine with Golems (GoHo) — Golems tank the core while Hogs sweep from the sides, creating devastating pincer attacks.
Deploy Hogs in small groups (2-4) targeting specific defenses rather than mass dumping. Spreads risk and improves precision.
Unlock & Upgrade Path
Unlock Hog Rider by upgrading Dark Barracks to Level 2. This is when the wall-jumping revolution begins.
Max Hogs early at TH9-10 for war dominance. They define the meta at these levels and enable GoHo and mass Hog strategies.
Final upgrade at TH16 reaches 1,500 HP and 225 DPS — making them viable even in late-game surgical strikes.
