    Obstacles

    Obstacles are random decoration items that spawn on your village. They are fixed and can't be moved, except if you use the Magic Item Shovel of Obstacles.

    Troops can be spawned beside and/or on top of obstacles, so placing obstacles and decoration items on your village will not affect the enemy attack. In fact, they don't even show up on Clan Wars.

    Gem Rewards

    Removing regular obstacles can give you 0 to 6 Gems. On average, you get 2 gems per obstacle. The number of gems you get always comes on the same order, it's a cycle: 6, 0, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2, 0, 0, 5, 1, 0, 3, 4, 0, 0, 5, 0, 1, 0.

    However, there are three independent cycles on your Home Village and Builder Base, but the gems rewarded always follow the exactly same order. The cycles are: obstacles in your Home Village, original obstacles on your Builder Base and spawned obstacles on your Builder Base.

    Obstacle Limit / Respawn rate

    The number of obstacles you can have at the same time on your village is 45. Gem Box and special obstacles do not count.

    Vegetation respawns at a rate of one item per eight hours and rocks don't respawn (think twice before removing them). The only obstacle that will not respawn until you remove is the Gem Box. You can have only one on your village. This is a special obstacle that rewards you 25 gems.

    Vegetation:

    When the game respawns an obstacle, the respawn weight represents the chance of that particular item being the one that appears.
