Skill Order

Upgrading the skills of your hero is probably the part where you can gain the most value – or optimize value – since higher skill level upgrade their abilities linear (for example gain 5% of stats per level) but the costs are getting higher and higher. We have designed ideal upgrade sweetspots for every player that will help you pick how far you should upgrade your hero without overspending. That means you can use resources for other heroes that you might have invested in skills not really needed for your cause.

This is the ultimate budget/entry-level build. Testing shows Elio is surprisingly effective here because his massive 1st Skill (Backup Plan / Cloud Rider) deals an exceptional 2,400 single-target damage factor while preventing your legion from being obstructed.

Best Troop Types

He can work with all flying units so that is great but in reality flying marksman are barely used and with his kit he work sbest with celestials just because how he can boost their damage scaler but the main message here for you is that you don’t have to mind troop types because of him but because of who to pair with

Best Hero Pairing for Elio

Seluna
Seluna
Urag
Urag

Seluna is the best pairing as they hae the most universal and flexible troop types as well and just overall work best together (See full build here).

Urag for a hybrid setup wotks as well with a lot of damage and HP bypass for open field (See full build here).

is alterntively also working with mage pairings
Night Roc
when paired with marksman

Best Builds For Elio

Below you will find the talent tree builds for Elio that make sense when running as the primary commander in any legion in Call of Dragons. 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.If we do ignore the theorycrafting mobility tree that I don#t see much use-case for and the weird cavalry tree with him, I honestly thing the most reasonable talnt tree is this, balanced and universal as he is that works with everything well

Conclusion

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