Had a friend on my server who had her as his wall genny way before ascending. We all brushed him off until he was the first to fully awake a genny and have kickass reports.
I've got Leo III but because of the ascension problem I've been using Dewey and Boudica exactly for the reasons you've outlined here. I was so unsure about the decision and was worried I was making a mistake. This video has given me peace of mind.
I wouldn't scrap Marshal. Evony changes stuff so much, I wouldn't doubt that Double Ascended generals becomes a thing( where assistants' ascensions start counting towards stats). Also Dewey's ascension is pretty good imo, just for the siege HP. He could also end up becoming a tavern general in the future, just like Boudicca went from being a premium gen to a tavern gen.
I also ascend the duty generals for workshop and barracks and stuff like the archer tower cause you really can get extra with trap factory, barracks and stables generals ascended for horse hp
my alt account got 15 boudica from the tavern before it got it's 4th martinus. Also, this video shows perfectly the flaws of the assistant general mechanic. Marshal and Dewey's gold skill are the same, except Dewey's HP is 5% less. Marshall doesn't work, Dewey does, for that reason. So you have to literally destroy the slightly better general to pay for the one that is slightly worse because it's compatible with Boudicca. Actually ridiculous, and a gigantic waste of resources.
and i just want to add that dewey is actually harder to get than marshal. Marshal at least comes up as a trial of knights reward, and from the general invitation event. Dewey can takes months of collecting fragments to get just one. But if he's assistant, I guess it doesn't matter.
@@gamingaddictswithgenghisIs she better than Kusunoki? Evony screwed up and have me 5, 6 star Kununokis, so I used them to level him up. Now 9 star. He worth keeping? Same happened for Boudicca. Is there a good assistant for Kusunoki if he's worth it?
If you really want to go all-out on cav hp for your wall, you can pair Boudica with li Naomasa who brings another 95% cav hp fully spec'd =] I'd do that if I didn't also need the siege stats from Leo
I have William Marshal as my main and Basil II as my assistant. Like you mentioned, a big issue is getting fragments + ares.... I. refuse to get rid of Marshal only because I know the moment I get rid of him, EVONY will do something to make getting his fragments easier.
It's funny you say that at the end I use my Leonidas as main with 2 piece koryo 2 piece Abbas and 2 ach and all flat refines with Boudica as assistant and it's a great pair
I thought if Boudica and I have a bunch of copies but the problem with Marshall was a current problem for me. So I went Jadwiga with Marshall, because I am fairly strong seige to pound while you are hitting my horse/ground. And I thought the combo was less specialized to more handle whatever comes. One question which I haven’t been able to answer is what does HP do in battlefield. Because I hear defense to stay out of hospital, HP not to die, but nothing dies in battlefield. So I am thinking defense to stay in battle longer and I really do not know what HP does in battlefield so I was a bit leery of Boudica for battlefield with a great HP increase.
But if you have more hp. The troops w live longer. Imagine this. You have 10m horse. And the first 500k are in the battle while others wait their turn to defend. Hp will allow those first 500k who are fighting to their death to last longer before the others start fighting
it should be noted this really only applies to your top tier mounts, Low tiers go by flat numbers not percentages so boudica would really only be to protect your upper layers if you can't ghost your t10-15. from what I've seen they are still the first to die from a range rally attack, maybe not all in one go, but they still die off pretty easily
Sure. But if you’re playing the flat game. It’s a completely different everything. Your wall gens would then go off which upper troops you decide to keep
If you're stacked with over 10M T15 cav those % will stop just about anything being high enough. But a proper mixing of % and flats is crucial if you've layered your entire base like I have. 5M of each troop type minimum
@@Rizzatar 10M t15 holy f*** 😳 i'm currently at 2M-3M each type, so i'm getting there. do you focus on stacking all mount buffs (attack/hp/defense) for in-city whether they're flats or %? really didn't want to switch my marshal after being close to 9 stars for boudica, but might have to consider it
@@dennisrodriguez3689 I have dewey at 6 star I have 1 leo no frags for him have 1 leo no frags for him and I got boudicca and frags for her what should I do?
To be honest, if you have the money it should be easy to ascend William Marshal. He's almost always in the General's invitation event. Most of the coiners on my server have him and well ascended too.
I have a serious question about t1 meat trap so far nobody answered right yet. Why Boudica? Her % skill on mount only work on top tier mount which are obviously should be ghosted. So why her? I was thinking about Tran Dau as main for siege% and Teach as assistant for another siege%. Are they both good to support t1 traps?
I have Leonidas 8 stars right now almost to 9 with mixed of ground and mounted flats with Kroyo set… and William Marshall as my assistant… I did my flat refines mixed because I wanted to see if t1 ground will be effective for defense since there health and defense is already so high… with siege attack % refines
I don't think this is a wise idea - the fact that building 400,000,000 T1 cav can be theoretically done with grinding and low spending, and likewise for ascending Boudica one or two stars, leads me to think that Evony will nerf the hell out of this strategy in the near future.
It was my understanding, that blooded generals when a 2nd doesn't work.. that was tested.. I wouldn't use her as a Main one.. but that's me.. good video
I Am getting 3 to 4 fragments of George a week but I brought the monthly pack that gives you more keys so I can 8 star George and I have another 15 fragments to go towards the ninth star
We have the exact same wall generals. We also have the same problem with getting fragments. It's so frustrating. Mine are ascended to the same stars as yours too. Although, I have 5 Dewey scrolls. But I'm not a fan of him. I have heaps of Boudica too. But do you think she would work as assistant to Marshall??
Love the video....building mine now even though I am only a keep 30...my biggest troop count is mounted so this will help in PVP and BoC/BoG. The discord link is invalid...anyway to get another link to discord?
It's been a few weeks now, any updates on the move to keep her as a main, especially for non to occasional coiners? I can buy William Marshal with my invitations right now, but not sure what my move should be. Right now I run Zachary Taylor and Dewey. But I have Leonidas and wanted to buy Marshal to replace Taylor and keep Dewey. So hard to choose!
@Gaming Addicts With Genghis You don't neglect Siege attack with Thebes as your wall Dragon. And you can always mix and match the refines. Plenty of seige attack from Koryo Set also.
What about using non wall specific generals, like Li Naomasa who has Mounted attack 25% and mounted HP 40% while leading the army. I. Tested it and got and extra 10% HP boost when replaced with my Leonidas.
Then your stuck wishing and praying to the pack Gods or hopefully they are rewards again somewhere smh...just like I can't get 1 yeon for gen hall 2 smfh
For someone new and learning I wish you could’ve edited that 4:21 parts where you messed up because I’m not understanding. And unsure you still meant what you said. Clarification anyone?
Interesting, I tend to ghost around 20 million top end horse on 4 or 5 marches, but this is someone I might look at 👍. Also when you ascend a general do they actually work as an assistant as I’ve looked and when you click on the main book it only shows the basic buffs and not the ascended extra star buffs 🤔. Also learnt something today, did not release you get blood of ares back when you sell an ascended general, thanks for that 👍
Doesn't matter who you have .. evony will still kill you. Ascending generals was a poor upgrade in the game ...its forcing you to buy top packs ×10 for a chance to get what you want and it still gives you someone you don't want ...games fixed for growing administration just to kill and out rank you ....getting fed up of chasing ranking ...money pit ...
Really gangus ? I sold boudica last week .i am very good at choosing generals. I am a low coiner so I can’t switch and change like you do …sometimes you don’t give good information…. If you say she is good or bad people will run with that .
