Best Troops
If you use her to defend your city you will run mixed units but for defending garrison you should try to get as many archers in as her kit, skill and everything buffs up archers heavily.
Best Commander Pairing for Dido
Henry as secondary commander along Dido as primary commander for defending a garrison with archer troops works exceptionally well and is probably the best pairing right now to defend pretty much anything as you will gain a lot of sustain and skill damage from Henry that Dido improves even further (See full build here).
Heraclius is also a pairing that makes a lot of sense and works well as the primary commander with Dido. I would prefer running Henry overall but if that’s your only option you will still get good results (See full build here).
Yi Sun-Sin (YSS) is more a backup secondary commander if the above are no option you have(for whatever reason) and I would not do it unless you have no other option (See full build here).

Best Talent Tree Builds For Dido
Below you will find the talent tree builds for Dido 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.

The only talent build that makes with Dido as your defensive captain ifor garrison or your city is this one here – there’s literally no other case where you want to run her as primary commander than as garrison captain.
And as you would only do that with her maxed out or upgraded very far there is no talent point order that I recommend – simply get her sweet garrion tree points into Impregnable and Impenetrable Fortifications for a nice reduction in damage you take along her skills. Then get Emergency protection and Rejuvenate as this will let you cycle through her active skill mroe that deals grat damage but also debuffs rallies armies attacking whatever she defends.
The leftover points then are well-spent in the Archery Tree to ramp up the damage output you have with her and she will defend literally anything if you have her maxed.
Best Formation + Armaments
Formation and Armaments are supposed to work perfectly with your commanders kit or you will find yourself very quickly in a disadvantage on the battlefield – and with so many variations it can be tough to stay on top. Here is what the works best in today’s meta:
