Best Troops

Her important scaler is that infantry normal attacks get buffed up like crazy, so it makes no sense to run her with anything else than full infantry marches.

Best Commander Pairing for Gorgo

Liu Che

Flavius

Heraclius

Scipio Africanus (Prime)

Phyrrus

Liu Che is, all the theoretical and possible pairings aside, the one and only pairing to use with her seriously for the reason their interaction and smite damage works. The other pairings work, yes, but the only impactsful pairing is them together and it is one that will be extremely dangerous to almost everything. But also here this comes with a little downside and that is that you need to bring at least two or even better more infantry marches so her debuff will scale. Flavius is the best pairing with Gorgo if you plan to run her for garrison and even stronger than other Falvius garrison pairs and although getting shredded by some meta rally pairs, still the best option you have here. Heraclius is also a valid garrison pairing and espcially against archers you can do well here. Scipio Africanus (Prime) looks very promising but as soon as you’re against archers you will get shredded like there’s no tomorrow in the open field. Phyrrus with normal attacks and Gorgo with her insane debuff was something I did look forward testing but they got literally destroyed so heavily by archers.

Best Equipment Forge Order

In terms of equipment, here’s what I recommend to use as the route for Gorgo. 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:

Iron Helm is the first gear piece to forge and equip and has good attack stats for the invest

Cloth Gloves is like the Iron Helmet a really low-hanging fruit with solud stats for the investment

Blessed Blade is an amazing piece with massive additional health for infantry and a must-gear piece at this point

Infantry Breastplate has some decent defense for infantry and is a solid next gear item especially as you can use any defensive stats that you can get at this point and they deliver just that

Ranger Trousers are the only gear piece that you can use here that have infantry stats, although it's attack

Boots of Reverence is like the Ranger Trousers the only green option with infantry stats but the attack it offers is in general not that important but rather have it than leaving this slot without anything

Windswept Bracers are the first blue gear to equip and it changes the defense to health, which is great. As I mentioned in so many other spots, health is the strongest stat in Rise of Kingdoms so this is a switch that makes absolutely sense

Windswept War Helm is the next item to use. It will make the set bonus for the Windswept set with additional attack and has more attack than the Iron Helm you had here so it's definitely an improvement

Windswept Boots is not the most obvious next step as most players tend to rather choose The Scarlet Hounds but hear me out. Your previous gear here had attack and the Scarlet Hounds looks very juicy with the 4% health, but with infantry at this point you struggle so much with march speed that the additional march speed in the Windswept Boots is more than worth it and you NEED this gear item to get the second Windswept Set Bonus of 4 items (as there is no Windswept leg gear), and this set bonus will give you additional 4% march speed. For that reason take the hit and skip the health and take the Windswept Boots here

Windswept Breastplate has solid defense and gives you the 2nd Windswept Bonus with 4% march speed so that should be your next step here

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):

Greatest Glory

Ring of Doom

Horn of Fury

Vengeance

Scolas Lucky Coin

Concealed Dagger

Wind Scars

Moras Web

Call of the Loyal

Greatest Glory is designed for her as normal attack damage get buffed and literally everything in her kit is about normal attack damage, even her active skill.Ring of Doom is probably the other best choice to increase the damage as you will gain more damage without requirements.

Best Builds For Gorgo

Below you will find the talent tree builds for Gorgo 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.

If you’re running Gorgo for anything else than garrison (and that is realistically open field), this is the talent tree build you want to follow through to make best use of her kit.

This is the talent skill build with Gorgo if you use her as the garrison defender and there is literally no other way around it that makes sense. I would give you a priority but the reality is if you run her as garrison commander before having her maxed out you’re up for a huge mistake so making up a priority here will rather motivate people to do that and that is the reason you will not get a priority here.

Conclusion

I hope this guide for building Gorgo helped you investing without wasting much time and resources. If you liked it or you further questions (or maybe also annnotations that you believe should be added here in this guide), please don’t hesitate to post them below in the commen section. Thanks for reading and have a great day and see you out in the kingdoms.
