      Yeah it almost feels like mutually assured destruction, you deal a lot of damage but take a lot of it as well 😅. It's definitely still a solid option even though she's the oldest of the meta commanders 🙂

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      In order I would say Gorgo Hera then Eleanor Hera then Jan Hera, but Gorgo and Eleanor are fairly close trade quality wise so if you are significantly better in cavs you can roll with Eleanor and still get good trades 🙂, Hera is just really solid overall with that 30% normal damage reduction 🙂

      Thanks for the support and Great question! Both would work, Eleanor would probably be the better option but if you already have Jan maxed and don't plan on building Eleanor you probably don't need to build her for city defense only 🙂, but if you're already working on garrisons or starting from scratch Eleanor will have the longer shelf life in theory so is the better option 🙂

    During our KVK, Zeno+Gorgo is only good on paper against Ashurbanipal, and is not that strong unless you swarm/counter rally to get those debuff, Gorgo+Constatine - maintains that attack debuff and damage mitigation.

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's interesting, even then I wonder if it still warrants Constantine being built now just because of the sheer gold head investment or if its only for those who have them built already. If you have it, sure it's terrific, but if not, it almost feels like you're better off with Zeno, or saving, or with Hera even, if not for today then for months in the future, it's a weird situation for sure in the infantry side 😅

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Full infantry with Gorgo Hera is interesting, so ditch the normal damage reduction of 3 troops for hera with hold the line on Gorgo, interesting conceptually but hinges on accurate reinforcement, either way it works 🙂, daily chest builds are rough because you almost have to slow build and then you're stuck with a half built commander as the heads trickle in, which is tough for anything you plan on throwing in garrison 😅

    im running Zenobia/Gorgo for garrison in ark and often Gorgo/Attila in kvk (if we do one that has a relic).
    Do you think its worth investing in Hera?
    In ark would Gorgo/Hera be better than Zenobia/Gorgo and would Gorgo/Hera be useful in kvk that doesnt have a relic?
    thanks

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's a terrific question! Zeno Gorgo is incredibly solid, but needs all infantry to be really effective, so Hera is ideal for situations where you can't guarantee perfectly infantry fill like forts or passes that can be chaotic because that 30% normal damage reduction is also just so insane on his expertise especially with the infantry rallies being normal damage based now.
      I would say he's worth the investment, we use Gorgo Hera a ton and it's very good both 1v1 and against swarm, but if you wanted to work on him slowly and ride with Zeno Gorgo for a bit longer you have that luxury now with the daily chests as well 🙂

      Glad you enjoyed it! If you're looking for the commanders skills reviewed slill by skill I usually focus on that in detail for each commanders review video on the channel, so when I go over the meta I try to gloss over that unless there's a specific benefit or drawback of a pair based on a skill (like Dido and Hera conflicting on troop type requirements). But I'd be happy to expand a little more in detail in the future as well 🙂

    Is counter damage for garrison better than skill damage?

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  15 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Great question! Counterattack damage is better versus swarm and skill damage is better 1v1 generally, the heavier the swarm the more counterattack damage becomes the better option, but if you have field or limited swarmers like in a pass skill damage tends to be the better option 🙂

      Yeah it's a great archer option, the only thing you lose out on is normal damage reduction from Dido and some skill damage from Liang, but sheer numbers in city defense will cover that shortfall well I'd say 🙂

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah as a mixed city defense (as long as you have the leadership gear) lapu hera is the best since both have city defense specific boosts to their skills, the downside of the pair there is to maximize potential you need the leadership gear as well, but as far as archers in city defense Dido Liang does do a nice chunk of damage at the cost of not really having to divert off of the archer build path much if at all 🙂

      @commodoreboris  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Theo/YSS was not included here as it is just not very good in the current meta, meta has come a long way so they've fallen very behind as a pair. I would use Theo/YSS only as a city defense if you don't have Hera or Lapu or in extreme emergencies where you have no other garrisons available for objectives, it breaks my heart to say that, believe me, but just not as strong as they once were and it shows 😅

    I’m trying to build a city garrison but I don’t know what garrison commanders to invest in. I wanted to max dido and pair her with ysg or ZL but I have very mixed troops in my city. What garrison commander would be my best bet to invest in??

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Awesome question! Archers definitely have it rough because of the archer only type defense that's meta for them. If you are absolutely committed to building a city defense, you can use Dido, but it should be with Hera, since his normal damage reduction offsets the losses Dido gets. It's not the best pairing in the world, but it's the best for archer mixed Defenses and hera gives some nice boosts for city defense. That pair also does solid in objective defense which is a nice bonus 🙂.

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I guess it depends, Hera is the better option but if your YSS is already 5551 it frees up those sculptures for other things, is this for city defense against a rally or more for shadow legion use?
      For Shadow legion- that's 100% fine, will do work and get you to the end fairly easily.
      For city defense- it's up to you, if you get rallied in kvk chances aren't great for you to come out okay in either case, so the best policy is to avoid getting rallied in either case 😅. If you also have potential to help defend objectives I'd go hera but if not YSS will do okay just suboptimal especially against heavy swarm and new rally

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It should work along the avenue of Jan Nevsky but with less swarm resist and more 1v1 damage, you'd probably want Eleanor primary but it's definitely an option, but with the stacked mixed unit and cav garrison roster its probably not super long term. If you do decide to run Eleanor nevsky, just make sure no infantry or archers slip into that defense 🙂

    I am in an open MGE at the moment and I will place Top 10 it seems. I am only 40m power but i want to build my Garrisson for the long run. Options are: Eleanor, Justinian, Jan, Jadwiga, Bertrand, Chandragupta, Attila, GKhan. I would like to go for Jan. I cant really tell if Eleanor would be better for me or Jadwiga. I know they are all pretty good but i feel like Jan is so cool. Any help?

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Of the 3 you mentioned Jan and Eleanor are the 2 best. I personally prefer Jan for defense, and Eleanor will do well with Jan as well if you end up building more into garrisons later on, Jan is a good choice, good talents that at a minimum will make him great for shadow legion even if he falls out of the meta, Eleanor will probably be Meta for longer but even if next cav gen is garrisons that's 4 months away before a potential threat to Jan.
      So if you prefer Jan, I'd go with him. Jan with Eleanor is incredibly solid, Jan Nevsky is good as well and Jan Hera is still good too 🙂. I would avoid Jadwiga though, as she has just fallen off significantly in the current meta

      For city defense exclusively, lapu is the best option, but you'd need leadership gear to make it truly shine.

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Anything with hera will naturally do very well since he has mixed unit bonuses and increased abilities in city defense, so for the likes of shadow legion either of those could work, but both are fairly heavy on field specific skills, so it might be a dangerous option there if you are getting rallied by an enemy. Generally speaking, it's better than no city defense and better if all you need to worry about is swarming but versus a traditional rally it won't do as well as a regular garrison pair 🙂

    • @commodoreboris
      @commodoreboris  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Jan/Hera is another one that is super solid, one of my favorite mixed Defenses, and a more traditional option that I would use for city defense (and still do), Eleanor is more field reliant is what I'd say, the more field control or presence in general you have, the better, what really hurts her ultimately is poor talent tree with the defense tree, but she is surprisingly pretty good versus what was expected, had a couple of major defensive runs with her in flags during KvK fighting on both sides so she's definitely not a pushover by any means 🙂
      Lapu is.... interesting, for objectives he is a little fragile versus swarm but has great damage output, I feel like he's a victim of the swarm meta more than outright weak, just a ton of swarm out there right now making it hard to not run anti swarm garrisons 😅

      @commodoreboris  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Good question! With Gorgo/YSS it just doesn't translate as well as Gorgo Hera so you're just better off using that. The only situation where you would use Gorgo YSS is if you're still building Hera in most cases. That 30% normal damage reduction for Hera is massive, especially right now with the release of scipio aemilianus, it negates essentially 30% of his damage output which is totally massive. YSS can be used in certain situations, mostly in ark for second and third defenses, but most of the time you're just better off rolling with Hera

      No problem! If you have YSS expertised already you can use him with Gorgo, but if not it's just generally worth waiting if you can manage to, if you use sculptures on YSS you can run the risk of putting yourself behind on future releases. Luckily Hera is on Leadership MGE so a much less competitive MGE overall. In the meantime Constantine or Zenobia works well, or Liu Che in a pinch if you have him expertised already as well
