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 baseline setup ensures Goresh is immediately viable as an open-field secondary deputy hero. Maxing his first skill (Wild Blood) secures a massive 50% physical attack boost and a 15% flat reduction to all incoming damage, ensuring his march survives early-game focus fire while multiplying his base damage

Best Troop Types
Goresh is so much about infantry that you want to run him with infantry. There are some experiments to run him with cavalry but that is very specific so I don’t feel you really want to do that.
Best Hero Pairing for Goresh
Skogul as primary commander works really well and you even get the mobility tree to be a lot more flexible in the open field and with the extra counterattack damage she eneables, this is a perfect pairing to run (See full build here).
Garwood helps a lot keeping Goresh alive and enhancing the counterattack he deals and is also a great pairing (See full build here).
Madeline has counterattack damage which goes so well with Goresh’s 3rd skill but the shielding can be in the way here as well. They look great on paper but the reality is you can only have one Physical ATK buff active so Madelines buff will be overwritten by Goresh’s boost so it simply disappears (See full build here).
Bakhar is, just looking at the kit, working pretty much best with him except Skogul as you will bleed out your enemy once your health gets low – but he is an epic commander which also gets you in trouble as well when you want something strong to soak up the damage (See full build here).
Hosk improves stats and can be a good pairing as well buffing each other up but there is not much in terms of counterattack synergy (See full build here).
Nika can work on paper but you have some basic misconception here as you have infantry taking damage with Goresh and infantry dealing damage with Nika that makes it quite funky in the field (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.

Spiritbone Torc is actually an artifact I like with him a lot as you gain DEF and add damage over time when being surrounded by enemy legions this is nice. Fang of Ashkari is actually an artifact I like with him a lot as you gain DEF and add damage over time when being surrounded by enemy legions this is nice.
Best Pet Synergies For Goresh (NEW)
With the new war pet system in Call of Dragons it’s aso important to pair Goresh with the right pet to gain more synergies. Please also check out the full tier list of all war pets in Call of Dragons here to see which ones are worth the invest in general.
Best Builds For Goresh
Below you will find the talent tree builds for Goresh 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.
Goresh makes most use of going all-in with the infantry tree that will help him play his counterattacking kit the best.
