Why don't the Hokages use their clones?

Chakra reserves. Even Edo's still have to be cautious of their chakra usage.

It has been noted by Tobirama that the clones are too slow and inefficient (hence Minato using his body for the FTG switch move.

However, Tobirams did use a clone to suicide bomb Obito.

Finally someone else knows it was a clone, thank you KGB.

Dividing their chakra would make them weaker and would be a waste of time against someone as OP as Obito right now.

SO we know that the hokages can't regenerate cause of Obito's magic. But why can't they just use shadow clones to get close to Obito?

because they dont need bunshins
