Skill Order

Best Troop Types

Troop types depend, if you use him as a tank outcity of your city or any garrison, use Infantry troops and stick to one of the talent builds I have below. In a garrison you have normally mixed troop types so you don’t have to mind much there.

Best Hero Pairing for Garwood

Nika is a pairing you might want to use if you’re out there in theopen field looking for trouble and Garwood can stay alive a long time while Nika deals great damage and both are about Infantry Units, so they go quite well with each other (See full build here).

Hosk has great universal buffs and can go a long way with Garwood if you exclude the fact here that he is not easy or cheap to obtain (See full build here).

Madeline is along Garwood probably the msot tanky legion pairing you can run – Garwood will heal, Madeline will shield and you use counterattack damage and stay alive as long as possible. This is also the pairing if you#re the main tank in a raid against Behemoths (See full build here).

Bakhar is a great basic pairing if you pull Garwood early as he will increase all damage and Garwood brings the durability and you can even hide your Bakhar es epic behind Garwood to not get a target on your back right away (See full build here).

Eliana is not the first hero that comes in mind but actually with her shielding there is more synergy with Garwood than meets the eye and they are also a great pairing in the earlier stages (See full build here).

Theia is more like a tech pariring as she has shield that helps but you’re missing out on all other synergies (See full build here).

Best Artifacts

Let’s now take a look at the numerous artifacts that you can possible use. We have tested many of them and some have amazing synergy and others are more in for the stats but no matter what artifacts you have possibly available, you will find the one that works best. Please also check out the full tier list of all artifacts here to see which ones are worth the invest in general.

Dragon Scale Armor provides area damage which goes really well with Garwood as you often times are facing several enemy legions hitting you so you can get great value there. Springs of Silence provides area damage which goes really well with Garwood as you often times are facing several enemy legions hitting you so you can get great value there.

Best Builds For Garwood

Below you will find the talent tree builds for Garwood 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.

This is the regular tank build you would use for basically everything outsdie garrison (I have a open field build below for pairing with a damage dealer) when you use Garwood to be the tank. After unlocking his code talent node, move right into the Tank Tree and unlock more defense, less counterattack damage and Encouraging Dance to gain extra rage to be able to not only heal more frequently but also apply the buff from his active skill more often. Then take Unyielding Spirit for less hero skill damage taken. From here take more HP, Steel Sinews which triggers a lot as you will as infantry legion almost always be surrounded and Cloaked Wrath for more rage that helps you staying above 50% health. Then it would be up to you, but I recommend getting Vitality to get extra healing as this triggers other heroes skills like Madelines if you run them together. Running along a hero like Nika I’d think about Hearts of Iron as this helps her build.Now you can spend the last points in the Infantry Tree on reduced skill damage taken and finish with getting Furious that almost always triggers since youre in the front and always get debuffs applied. This is a build that I would only use in the open field if you set Garwood up with a more offensive hero like Nika. After unlocking the core node, go into the Infantry Tree and get the reduced hero skill damage taken more attack damage and Furious which will give you the buff each time your legion gets impacted with an enemy debuff (which happens pretty much all the time with infantry legions).From here take the decreased damage taken, Generalist for a nice general buff and Encouraging Dance for more rage to heal more and apply the active skill buff more. Then I recommend Iron Will as the buff from his active skill is simply so incredibly strong. The last points not go into the Tank Tree with Swift Analysis, All Conquering and finally Unyielding Spirit.
