Skill Order

Best Troops

Wo Zetian buffs and affects all troop types at the same way so there’s no reason to think about troop type when you use her, no matter for structures or your city.

Best Commander Pairing for Wu Zetian

JadwigaPerfect pairingis probably the most recent commander you can use WU Zetian as secondary commander with. Again, the times where Wu Zetian was an amazing defense commander are simply in the pastJadwiga build

Yi Sun-Sin (YSS)Perfect pairingworks well with Wu Zetian as their defensive kit work well along each other. Debatable which one should be the primary commander, thoughYi Sun-Sin (YSS) build

Yi-Seong Gye (YSG)Perfect pairingis a great secondary commander for defense with Wu Zetian as he provides a lof rage and with his area of effect damage he works well against getting swarmedYi-Seong Gye (YSG) build

Charles MartelPerfect pairingmakes it really hard to take down something you defend with Wu Zetian as he provides so much sustain. This, however, was more a viable combo back in the days when Attila and Takeda were a thing. Today thes still work but there have been so many new commanders released that this is far off meta to useCharles Martel build

TheodoraPerfect pairingis also a commander pairing that works but from the g'old Attila Takeda timesTheodora build

Best Talent Tree Builds For Wu Zetian

Below you will find the talent tree builds for Wu Zetian 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.

So, here’s the talent build you want to use with her that really makes her stand out and give the attacker a hard time. So, let’s take a deeper look at why I’ve chosen those talents and also at the order in which you should spend your talent points on Wu Zetian

The first step will be going into the Garrison Tree and pick up Nowhere to Turn for some extra rage with every attack you will get and you will pick up Inpenetratable Fortifications which will buff your defense when defending your city.

Next up is Impregnable which will significantly reduce the skill damage you take when defending your city. Along the way you will pick up Empty Fortress Strategem for a nice damage buff that you will deal. This is all we get in the Garrison Tree for Wu Zetian.

Next you will go to the Support Tree and get Rejuvenate as quickly as possible for that nice extra 150 rage whenever Wu Zetian or the secondary commander will use a skill. This is incredibly strong and will effectively reduce the time you need to use the skill from something like 10 seconds (before using it the first time) to somewhat around 5-6 seconds after skills start being used. There’s no stronger skill here to get!

After that it makes sense to go over to get Loose Formation for a reduction of skill damage you will get, especially when your city getting double-rallied or swarmed you will love the fact that you picked up that talent for Wu Zetian. Next make your way to Emergency Protection. On the way you also need to pick up Elixir which will increase the healing of her primary skill which is also nice, no talent point wasted here.

Now you go into the Leadership Tree and there are some nice things that will complete this build.

Remember, with Rejuvenate we have started to get a rage engine rolling and the more additional rage we produce, the faster this extra rage from Rejuvenate will come. So, picking up Hidden Wrath here first is a great choice.

You ultimately want to make your way to Strategic Prowess, so getting healing herbs is mandatory and the additional healing is nice because you do some healing with Wu Zetian’s first skill anyway. Now get over to get Strategic Prowess, although you will need to dump some points for march speed, it’s absolutely worth it.

You will get 20% additional defense from Strategic Prowess for 2 seconds after having used a skill. This will, thanks to your rage engine with Rejuvenate, Hidden Wrath and Nowhere to Turn, keep being active a lot and makes it total worth it. It will work also for your secondary commander so you can imagine with 5-6 seconds until the next round of skills come how much this will be active.

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:
