That's an aweful lot of gems... Few hundred US dollars actually.
If you like the queen, yes. High level heroes are excellent to use
A simple no will suffice.
Hundreds of dollars for marginal advantage? Yeah, just no.
if you like the game and you plan on playing it for long, and you have the funds.. why not lol.
I would advice against it, that is a lot of money that you could be spending on something better
If u have tons of spare money then if u really like a lvl40 then go for it:rolleyes::o
If u dont gem. From lvl 1 to lvl 40 archer queen it takes 227 days to upgrade if all upgrade times combined :)
it's pretty simple. Will it help your raiding? Yes.
Is it worth it? No one can answer that for you. It's your OWN money, you value it different than anyone giving you advice will value theirs.
You may enjoy this game at a different level than others.
Do the math and price out exactly how much it will cost you. Then decide if that cost is worth it to you, or if you'd rather save that money for other things.
I would 100% say no, not worth the money at all, just slowly farm her up to lvl 40. But that's just how I'd approach it.
Kinda in the same boat here, my AQ 30 and BK 27. I am tempted to GEM the time portion (7DAYS) ONLY for both heroes. If i did the math correctly its about $160.00.
I am not rich and so far i only spent $20.00 on this game that i've been playing for nearly 2 years. $160.00 is not a lot of money if broken into 8 purchases IMO. BUT the cumulative cost i'll be spending on this game will be $180.00.... which does not sit well with me..... i have bought consoles games ($65.00each) without hesitation and played for a couple of months.... but this FREE GAME, i cant seem to pull the trigger and spend another $160.00. I'm pretty sure i WILL STILL BE CLASHING for anther year or so.
Its the grind and small increments in change that keeps people interested in the game.Keep on Clashing!
Yea I treat this game as a marathon, not a sprint.Quote:

The latter is much more gratifying actually, and saves me hundreds of dollars to spend elsewhere.
I can't speak to the strength of the AQ at different levels since I don't even have her yet. But I think if you were to gem, just gem the time and not the DE.
I would start each upgrade before bed and gem her time in the morning, or whenever I started playing the next day if I needed her. 1 lvl per day doesn't sound unbearably slow compared to 1 every week.
One level per day?? And you are suggesting to earn the DE through farming, and only gem the time?Quote:

I don't know how the OP plans on getting DE, but people have suggested never to gem resources and I agree with that. If he/she wants to gem the DE, then 1 lvl per day is still a reasonable option and will save a few bucks.
All I was suggesting is to gem time, and start the upgrade overnight so you can save yourself 6+ hours of gem time each lvl.
If a couple hundred is like an 1-2 hours work, why not. Its all about cost/income. Peaople always think OMG that millionaire dropped 10K on dinner, when thats actually close to them spending $100 on a dinner.
Thats how i think of it..I can save XX hours and make more money by working the time I save.
This depends on the line of work you are in.Quote:

If you do shift work and you plan to use that time to take on extra shifts, or if you own your own business and make your own hours, that's a different story.
There's no cookie-cutter formula that works the same for everyone, and though you can say I'll just use that farming time to work and make more money, well the next argument is "should I use the extra money I just earned working extra hours for Clash of Clans, or should I use it to pay off my mortgage or student loan or groceries or anniversary gift for my gf/wife or other such possibilities that may or may not take precedence over a freemium mobile game.
Impossible to GEM 1 LVL a day if you need to farm DE. The cost of LVL 31 AQ is 130K DE. The only reason to GEM TIME is to be able to USE her while farming for the next upgrade (LVL 32 DE 135K). OP wanted to know is it WORTH it to spend $$$ to instantly have lvl 40 heroes and only way to do that is GEMMING RESOURCES and TIME
my arch queen is level 30, and currently upgrading to level 31.. im only using gems in boosting my drillers, and i farm dark elixir on crystal league. im suggesting you do the same
I have a doubt :confused:
The sign showing that he/she is a TH8 & how is it possible to get a AQ on TH8 :p , ignore me if i miss something :rolleyes: !
It's already been stated, but the bottom line is money is relative... do as you wish.
Many gem lvl 40 heroes (the vast majority of top players I'm sure) and a few others actually grind it out. Either one is acceptable depending if the cost/benefit works for you and your life style.
If asking me personally if It's worth it, I'd say yes. I love CoC so spending a couple hundred dollars on something I enjoy (that will also save me hundred of hours and potential headache's trying to max out) is entirely worth it to me.
Way I see it is it's an entertainment cost. People spend hundreds or thousands, or hundred of thousands on entertainment. Just depends on what you value.... and again it's all relative.
Btw did I mention lvl 40 heroes are ridiculous? Indeed they are :cool:
