Best Generals (& Combinations) | Evony: The King's Return GUIDE WIKI (2024)

First of all, the basics are:

• Only the golden historic general should be hired.
• Most historic general who come to tavern are useless.
• If tavern level is over 21 (24 or higher recommended), it is relatively easy for a gold historic general to appear.
• “Great General Chest” must be opened every day. (It’ s in the upper left corner of the store and in the tavern.)

Who you hire depends a lot on how much you charge. (There are generals who can’t be obtained without charging.)

A) If you pay no money

A-10) Duty Officer

• Barracks – Abd al-Rahman I
• Workshop – Gwon Ryul
• Archer Tower – Ban Chao
• Trap Factory – Askia Muhammad I
• Hospital – Skanderbeg
• Rally Spot – Toyotomi Hideyoshi
• Academy – Eulji Mundeok

A-11) Methods and Priorities of Acquisition

In the early stages of the game, I recommend that you first give top priority to the following

• Get Cleopatra (for double drop) and Yukimura Sanada (for boss hunting) at the beginning of the puzzle.
• Go to the relics to collect slate fragments and get Roland or Hannibal (for boss hunting and mounted troops PvP), Elektra (for ranged troops PvP), and Constance I (for resource gathering).

The above is the fastest and most reliable way to obtain these generals, and if you have these generals first, you will not be in trouble for the time being.

In parallel, open the “great general chest” in the store and tavern every day to get Shajal Ah-Dur, George Dewey (old name: Joseph E. Johnston), and various duty officers.

Refresh the tavern at least 10 times daily when the level of the tavern level reaches about 24, and target Baibars, the Queen jindeok, Arminius, Andrew Jackson, the Empress Dowager Cixi, and various duty officers.

B-6) Defense General

Defense General (PvP)

• Quick Guide
  • In defense, the attack of ranged troops and siege machines and the defense and HP of ground and mounted troops are important.
    • Until about keep level 33, ranged troops and siege machines are important. (Mounted troops are ghosted)
    • Around keep level 35, in addition to the above, ground troops is important. (Mounted troops are ghosted)
    • Eventually, mounted troops also become important. (Too many mounted troops will not be able to ghost)
  • The main generals listed below all have high durability of ground and mounted troops (when trained to the maximum). (Exception: only George has weak ground troops) (details on buff values)
  • The weak points of each general can be compensated for by their assistants (details of buff values). Therefore, no matter which one you use, you will not be at an extreme disadvantage (when trained to maximum).

    • Weakness enhancement: Godfrey of Bouillon, Mason Weaver, Yodo-dono (Ranged)

Defense General (Production)

B-7) Boss / Monster Hunter

Main Pair

Something that can kill the strongest boss possible and also have a good double drop.
The main unit used by boss-hunt.

• Combo A: Balanced Double Drop & Attack 1
  • Main: Maria Theresa
  • Assistant: Baibars
  • Key Buffs:
    • Double Drop 45-61% (depending on specialty of Baibars).
    • Mounted attack 200% (using Mounted attack and against-monster Mounted attack skill book Lv4)
    • Monster Defense Debuff 0%.
  • Remarks:
    • If you want to prioritize stamina over double drop, make the assistant Nathaniel Green (Stamina cost -25%) and attach the Luck Lv4 Skill Book. However, Double Drop will be reduced by 7%.

• Combo B: Balanced Double Drop & Attack 2
  • Main: Theodora
  • Assistant: Mounted PvP General with high attack
  • Key Buffs:
    • Double Drop 43% (using Luck skill book Lv4).
    • Mounted attack 170% or more. (depending on assistant) (using Mounted attack and against-monster Mounted attack skill book Lv4)
    • Monster Defense Debuff -10%.
  • Remarks:
    • Cannot be paired with Baibars.
    • The maximum double drop is 43%, but there is room to increase the attack by an assistant.
    • If you want to prioritize stamina over attack, make the assistant Nathaniel Green (Stamina cost -25%).

• Combo C: Balanced Double Drop & Attack 3
  • Main: Caesar
  • Assistant: Baibars
  • Key Buffs:
    • Double Drop 40-56% (depending on specialty of Baibars)
    • Mounted Attack 161% (using Mounted Attack Skill Book Lv4)
    • Monster Defense Debuff -30%
  • Remarks:
    • Looking at Attack alone, it is inferior to others, but at maximum development, it can defeat surprisingly strong bosses due to its top-class monster debuff.
    • If you want to prioritize stamina over double-drops, you can choose Nathaniel Green (Stamina cost -25%) as your assistant and add a Luck Lv4 skill book. However, the double drop will be reduced by 7%.
• Combo D: Attack Oriented
  • Main:
    • Mounted PvP General with high attack
    • (Napoleon Prime, Hestier, Jayabalman II, Beowulf, etc)
  • Assistant:
    • Mounted PvP general with high attack, with a Luck Skill Book Lv4.
    • Or Baibars.
  • Key Buffs:
    • Double Drop 18%. (If Luck skill book is attached )
    • Double Drop 25-41%. (If the assistant is a Baibars. Depending on specialty of Baibars)
    • Mounted attack 250-300% approx. (use skill book Lv4 for Mounted attack and against monster Mounted attack)
  • Remarks:
    • It will allow you to defeat stronger bosses, but the double drop rate is not high, so the efficiency of gaining rewards is not good. Not strongly recommended.

Sub-Pairs (for rally participation and sub boss killers)

Make 5 sets of the following sub-pairs to participate in boss-hunts and rally with all 6 marches.

Considering the cost of development, the following would be realistic for most people.

• For the main general in the sub-pair, make the purple general 10 stars instead of making the gold generals red stars
• Not raising the specialty.

The recommendation also depends on whether priority is given to double drop or stamina.

• Combo A: Focus on Double Drop and Attack (= both rally participation and boss killer)
  • Main: Sanada Yukimura (10 stars)
  • Assistant: Baibars
  • Key Buffs:
    • Double Drop 35%
    • Mounted attack 150% (using Mounted attack and against monster Mounted attack skill book Lv4)
    • Monster defense Debuff -5%
    • Stamina cost -10%
• Combo B: Focus on Stamina ( = specializing in rally participation)
  • Main: Sanada Yukimura (8 stars), Spartacus (8 stars), Theodora (5 stars)
  • Assistant: Nathaniel Green
  • Key Buffs:
    • Stamina cost -35%.
    • Double Drop-28% (using Skill Book of Luck Lv4)
  • Remarks:
    • For the main general, I recommend Sanada (10 stars) if possible. He has the highest attack among the 3 above, so that way he can be used as a boss killer. (Mounted attack 150%, Monster defense -5%) (Use the skill book Lv4 for Mounted attack and against monster Mounted attack) Also, since it provides monster defense -5%, it may reduce injuries to the rally setters when participating in rally.

Reference: Best of Boss General / Monster Hunter

B-8) Subordinate City

• Subordinate City (Debuff : Attack)
  • Simple Guide
    • The basic recommendation is to use a ranged attack debuff general.
    • The siege attack debuff can be maximized only with Achaemenidae equipment, so the mayor skill is less of a priority.
    • If you can shoot and kill the enemy ground & mounted troops before they get close, you don’t need the ground & mounted attack debuff. (Reference: )
  • Ranged
    • Zizka – Ranged -40%
    • Hojo Ujiyasu – Ranged -35%
    • Mark Antony – Ranged -35%
    • Nordic Barbarian King – Ranged -30%
    • cnu*t the Great – Ranged -25%
    • Andrew Jackson – Ranged -20%

    • Pachacuti – All -15%
    • Jester – All -15%
    • Harald – All -10%
    • Mansa Musa – All -10%

• Subordinate City (Debuff : Defense, HP)
  • Simple Guide
    • Priority is given to ground defense, mounted HP, and mounted defense debuffs.
    • The ground HP debuff can be maximized only with Achaemenidae equipment, so the mayor skill is less of a priority.
    • Toward the end of the game (around K38), when siege machines’ rally and reinforcements become commonplace, siege machine HP and defense debuffs also become important.
  • Ground, Mounted
    • Empress Dowager Cixi – Ground Defense -15% / All Types Defense -15%
    • Hojo Ujiyasu – Mounted HP -35%

If you get a general not on this list

If you get any other golden historic generals other than these early in the game, you may want to raise them as your “temporary” main generals.

Once you have the general you want, you can use him/her in the following ways, so it won’t go to waste.

• Use as a duty officer for buildings not listed above.
  • List of buildings to which an officer can be assigned, etc. -> Duty Officer Guide
  • How much should we develop them if we plan to eventually make them duty officers? -> Duty Officer – Required General Level, Star, etc

• Use as a general for resource gathering.
  • A developed golden historical general has high politics. In other words, they gather resources faster, making them superior to undeveloped Lucy (develope = Leveling up, Enhance, Cultivate). You can check the percentage of gathering speed on the cultivate screen.
  • Ultimately, you should gather resources with the 6 Queen Jindeok, so you can use them as a temporary solution until then.
