Best Troops
Edward is all about Archers and you see that as 3 of his 4 skills do directly affect archer units. Also, talent builds with him only make sense when spending a nice bunch of talent points into the Archer Tree. With Edward just take full archer marches, everything else is not worth it and you do even neglect the 3rd skill if you don’t.
Best Commander Pairing for Edward of Woodstock

Tomyris is a great choice as she will synergize really well with Edward in many ways and how their skills work together (no surprise as they are released along each other). Yi-Seong Gye (YSG) who will also boost the skill damage that Edward will deal, all this will be an insane amount so they form a great pairing along each other as well. Ramesses is another interesting pairing here as you will gain more survivability as this is what the above pairings lack a little. El Cid will provide you with healing factor or resistance that will also suit Edward really well. – –.

Best Builds For Edward of Woodstock
Below you will find the talent tree builds for Edward of Woodstock 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.So, with that 1,350 rage requirement, you really want to make sure to pop that skill as fast and often as possible – it will deal rampage damage that is insane and Edwards biggest strengths – and for that reason, this talent build is all about generating or restoring rage for him. The talent build itself is the same you would see on commanders like Yi-Seong Gye or El Cid as they share the same talent trees.So let’s have a look at the best order to make this build happen (you probably don’t have Edward of Woodstock maxed out, I guess):First of all make your way in the Skill Tree towards Rejuvenate. This will restore 60 rage once you used a skill and contributes heavily towards getting Edwards first skill rolling over and over again. Then you want to unlock Feral Nature at any costs as fast as possible without wasting any talent points left or right that are not required to unlock Feral Nature. I know it looks like chances are quite low but in the long run, you will get 10 additional rage for every attack (statistically) and that’s a lot!Clarity itself isn’t that exciting but if you can keep Edwards skill rolling it contributes and you need it to get Feral Nature so no second-guessing required.In the Archery Tree you want to make your way over to Razor Sharp which grants you also some additional rage and then make your way up to Venomous Sting.
