In clash of clones, why does my clone grow bigger after attacking about 5 times and suddenly do way more damage? and how am I able to get around this? I am using the simple sword, steel striker, crude spike, obsidian breastplate, and painted steel helmet.

Minus the steel striker. That was a typo.

The clone grows because a shaman casts the grow spell and makes the clone have more health. If you need help with your code, can you show us your code formated as it is described below so we will be able to help you?

Honestly I’m not the best at coding lol.

```python
def bash(enemy):
    while enemy and enemy.health > 0:
        hero.shield()
        if hero.isReady("bash"):
            hero.bash(enemy)
while True:
    enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()
    if enemy:
        bash(enemy)

```

Is there an enemy type of a shaman so I can target it first before the clone maybe?

The shaman’s type is “shaman”.

You should try using the Long Sword with all of the other equipments. And I strongly suggest to read all of the other topics about Clash of Clones.

</div>

I’m using the basic sword so that the clone won’t be able to attack that well, and then the crude spike has bash.

</div>

Yes, I’m suggesting to use the Long Sword because it has the cleave function. In this level, you will need to use the worst armor and the swords and shield with special abilities, like “cleave” and “bash”.

What is the enemy type of a sand yak, and how do I not attack it if I see one?

Sand yak would be a “sand-yak” and you would use something like

```python
if enemy and enemy.type != "sand-yak"

```

Also I have 53 gems, so I can’t really buy anything.

I have a lot more stuff than that though. It’s just to lessen the strength of the clone and be able to bash and cleave. Also I am using electrocute ring.
