Best Troops

Chandragupta is all about cavalry and although the only skill part that requires having only cavalry is the 3rd skill – and that’s JUST a higher chance to apply the Exhaust effect, not the full skill. Overall you can run him with a mixed army, but bring as many cavarly as possible to gain the maximum effect out of his buffs.

Best Commander Pairing for Chandragupta

Genghis Khan

Saladin

Takeda Shingen

William I

Genghis Khan makes a really great pairing with Chandragupta secondary and they can do savage work the way they interact, epscially if you run them with a full cavarly march. But also keep in mind that they have nothing they can do against getting swarmed so they will have an issue as soon as that happens. Saladin paired with Chandragupta as the secondary commander is a graet rally setup because both see a lot of extra rage and you gain a ton of tankiness from it. This makes Chandragupta a little less glass-cannon, which is always a big issue for him. Takeda Shingen is also a good secondary commander to run along Chandragupta as he does care so much that you do normal attack damage to apply his debuff – and Chanragupta’s mechancis are all about doing extactly that. William I is also a good pairing as you gain the area of effect buffings and damage but it has the restriction that you want to get swarmed (which is the opposite of using Khan), but for that use-case a very powerful commander pairing. – -.

Best Equipment Forge Order

In terms of equipment, here’s what I recommend to use as the route for Chandragupta. I have tailored this priority order that you can follow step-by-step to prevent forging and running equipment that is not useful or only provides a very small improvement. Follow the equipment path step-by-step and you will have the best and most economical gear:

Sharp Longsword is a great and super easy to get piece of equipment and the +5% defense for cavalry optimal

Coarse Breeches also a super low-hanging fruit here with extra attack for cavalry units

Milanese Plate is the very first chest piece as there is nothing prior that makes sense equipping for cavalry

Bronze Bracers are not the greatest equip gear overall but they give some cavalry defense and are the first viable option for this slot

Helm of Fear is the first helm piece to craft now. It has attack, which is not the best to have that early and you rather want defense but you can at least get some attack bonus from it

Edged Boots are the last open equipment slot and should be the last equipment piece to equip since the small attack bonus is the least benefit here, but it gives a litte extra attack on cavalry so it's worth it

Vanguard Halberd should now replace your white weapon and it is incredible good for a green equipment offering a good defense boost that you really need at this point

Vanguard Greaves are your choice here and with the Vanguard Helbred in place you will also get the additional set bonus so you have all green equipment now with a nice bonus and good amount of total stats

Windswept Boots are the first blue gear you should equip after you have all equipment above equipped and it's an incredible gear piece where every stat is on point

Windswept Bracers is the next equipment to replace the Bronze Bracers and it will give you great stats with health and march speed that is quite perfect + you will get the small attack buff as you now have two Windswept gear pieces active

How to unlock

And for the artifacts I have tested the different ones here so you can see which ones perform the best (of course I only tested/list the ones that make sense):

Horn of Fury

Ring of Doom

Moras Web

Pendant of Eternal Night

Concealed Dagger

Silent Trial

Delanes Amulet

Call of the Loyal

Horn of Fury works good here as it has a chance to generate additional rage with each normal attack that will help him go through his active skill faster. I’m actually not a big fan of using Chandragupty primary so this is a little theory-crafty for me, tbh.Ring of Doom increases basically all damage that he does and is a great scaling damage-increasing accessory without any requirements.

Best Builds For Chandragupta

Below you will find the talent tree builds for Chandragupta that make sense when running as the primary commander in any march in Rise of Kingdoms. Please also refer to the description below each talent tree as I explain a general route on how you should spend your talents there + some additional background for each talent build that I very likely will appreciate.

There’s, in my opinion, not too many options you have building Chandragupta’s talent tree. He’s a lot about cavalry and as you really want to run him in a full calvary march, investing all the points into the Cavalry Tree is no mistake. I’d go first into the Skill Tree, though and pick up Rejuvenate for the extra rage so you cycle faster through his active skill that makes normal troops deal much more damage and trigger his 4th skill more frequently. Some players prefer Heraldic Shield but i prefer Latent Power as this will affect his hugeh direct damage factor from his 4th skill + making him more durable is not worth it as he is such a glass-cannon that you need to run him with a commander that helps out with durability. Then go all-inn with the Cavalry Tree and see some crazy results happening.

Conclusion

I hope this guide for building Chandragupta helped you investing without wasting much time and resources.

Thanks for reading and have a great day and see you out in the kingdoms.
