Best Skill Choices for Mulan
Skill work in Age of Empires Mobile a little different compared to other city-building war games where you have a set of skills on a hero that you can level up – in Age of Empires Mobile, you have:
- Commander Skill: this is the left skill and this skill is only actively used if your hero is the commander (the primary) hero of your legion
- Signature Skill: this skill is unique to the hero and can only be used by this hero and is autoamtically leveld up with the hero. Unlike the commander skill, this skill is always used no matter if your hero is the primary commander or not
- Flexible Skill: you have 6 available skills here where you can pick 2 that your hero will use. Picking the right ones will save you a ton of resources as you simply can’t level up all of them for all heroes to see which ones work best
But here is the good news – we did exactly that (level up all skills and tested them) to tell you which ones are worth leveling or not:
Best Talent Tree Setup for Mulan
Resetting talent trees looks easy but it gets gradually more expensive, so make sure to only use talent trees from trusted sources or this can quickly become a resourse graveyard. We gradually test and do our talent trees before recommending them, so here we go:

Conclusion

not related to mulan but sometimes you suggest very weird setup and push purple skill instead of legendary. can you details the testing process because so far, its hard to tell if the purple truly outperform legendary, i was thinking of tribuwhana for example
all of the skill trees are the same I’ve checked at least 3 characters
There is 66 heroes and counting in the game and, yes, some trees right now are the same, especially for heroes that have the similar tags. It’s by game design. I mean don’t kill the messenger here, we tested which one works best and if the game devs set this up like that right now there is nothing we can do about it 🙂
PS: saying “all talent trees are the same” when you checked less than 5% of the heroes (3 out of 66 is 4.5% to be precise) is not correct and might people mislead that we are scamming here. That is why I am pointing that out since we spend a ton of hours testing but also a lot of money unlocking everything so we can test and give profound guides other than many other sources out there.
