Best Troops

Genghis Khan is all about cavalry. I mean I can’t tell any other commander in Rise of Kingdoms who is more demanding a certain troop type.

You have cavalry only in his 3rd AND 4th skill, his 2nd skill only buffs cavalry units. Also his talent builds below will put half of the talent points into the cavalry tree, so running him on all-cavalry marches is something you have to do.

Best Commander Pairing for Genghis Khan

Minamoto

Cao Cao

Yi-Seong Gye (YSG)

Takeda Shingen

Saladin

Minamoto is a excellent rage engine to have along Khan to cycle through his active skill more frequently. Cao Cao is also a commander that can create a ton of extra rage that Khan can make really good use of. Yi-Seong Gye (YSG) also fits perfectly with Genghis Khan as a rage engine and has good skill damage as well. The archery-synergy also helps a lot. Takeda Shingen provides a ton of survivability as seconday commander which can be useful in Sunset Canyon as well as open field combat. Saladin adds a lot of survivability to the march if you plan on rally with Khan.

Best Equipment Forge Order

In terms of equipment, here’s what I recommend to use as the route for Genghis Khan. 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 nicely with Genghis Khan as it has a chance to generate additional rage with each normal attack that will help him go through his active skill faster.Ring of Doom increases basically all damage that he does and is a great scaling damage-increasing accessory without any requirements.

Best Builds For Genghis Khan

Below you will find the talent tree builds for Genghis Khan 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.

As I said this is the build that I recommend to use with Genghis Khan and here’s how to re-build it with the order of points:Skill Tree is obviously the first step when creating this build and Rejuvenate is your first goal here because it will give such a nice extra rage that Genghis can use so much. After that use all the points needed to get Feral Nature without wasting any additional point on the way there.Cavalry Tree will now be your go-to and Undying Fury will give you additional rage with every attack and is a no-brainer to get first.Next, I’d recommend Emblazoned Shield to reduce the skill damage Genghis Khan gets because this is really useful, no matter if rallying or on the open field.If you do open field a lot with him you also want to get Charge because this can be very useful in several situations as well.You can potentially change one thing about this build and that would be swapping out Helberg (dealing additional damage to archer units) and get Naked Rage instead. In my opinon that’s a good deal because you will deal 2% extra skill damage but also get 2% extra skill damage but as you’re one of the commanders with the highest skill damage against a single target you probably be the one that benefits more from that and you can ignore the 2% extra damage you take.Also, you have Emblazoned Shield that will reduce the skill damage you get so it’s a smart move.

Conclusion

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