Best Troops

Gilgamesh is about archers. Some commanders have a certain unit type favored but the skill tree plus most skills of Gilgamesh favor archer units so you should run as many of them as possible.

Nebuchadnezzar is the perfect rally pairing to be honest. Their synergy is simply amazing, their synergy is just on point. Also viable to run them along each other in the open field (See full build here).

Ramesses as well but I see some counter-synergies here that won’t make it as perfect (See full build here).

Cyrus the Great will gain a crazy rage engine and instant procc damage and AoE damage that works really well with Gilgamesh, also with the extra march speed (See full build here).

Yi-Seong Gye (YSG) is just a great legendary commander and as their both Archery commanders there’s no reason to not pair them together (See full build here).

Best Talent Tree Builds For Gilgamesh

Below you will find the talent tree builds for Gilgamesh 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.

For using Gilgamesh in the open field I recommend you to run this talent build here. Here’s the best order how to build this setup:

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 Gilgamesh can use so much. I think that’s the biggest bang for your buck early.

Archery Tree will now be your next step and there you should go after Venomous Sting as you will pick up several useful boosts for your army, but the primary thing here is to pick up the 18% extra march speed that will be really useful for open field.

From here go to Whistling Arrows in the Archery Tree at the minimal invest. Conquering Tree will be your last points with going after Buckler Shield to decrease the counterattack damage before spending the last points into Heraldic Shield and Tactical Mastery in the Skill Tree and Full Quiver in the Archery Tree.

This setup will apply the maximum extra rage to keep your primary skill rolling all the time and keep the health debuff active on the enemy.

Here’s the best order how to build this setup:

Skill Tree is obviously the first step when creating this build and Rejuvenate is your first goal here because it will give Gilgamesh a rage engine. You’ll get extra rage when any skill is used, makes skills roll faster and give more of that extra rage faster.

Archery Tree is the next step with Venomous Sting. It just gives many general benefits that you shouldn’t neglect for the extra rage now as the skill tree is all about skill damage (what Gilgamesh doesn’t have that much) and extra rage.

Back to the Skill Tree you can now go for Feral Nature and the rage engine is ON, you will roll your primary skill so much that there’s no way the enemy will be one second without that debuff anymore (basically 30% of his power is gone).

Last picks are then Razor Sharp and Full Quiver for some extra stats and you’re done with this build. Really fun, but I still think the above one is better for open field with the tankiness of the Conquering Tree.

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:
