Best Troops
Zenobia in general doesn’t care about troop types, however, has an extra buff for infantry troops in her 3rd skill. If you use her to defend your city, well, troop types won’t matter and defending a structure try to get as many infantry in there as possible but there’s no requirement to only bring infantry troops.
Best Commander Pairing for Zenobia
Flavius as the secondary commander for defending a flag or stronghold is a very good fit and you want to run a maxed Zenobia as the primary commander in this setup (See full build here).
Yi Sun-Sin (YSS) as the primary commander with Zenobia secondary bringing in her healing is also a good setup that can also work for your city unless you have something better (See full build here).
Theodora as the secondary commander with Zenobia primary also has a lot of synergies and defensive capabilities but also make sure that your Zenobia is ideally expertised, espcially when using this airing to defend your city (See full build here).
Wu Zetian is an okay pairing but she has been falling off recently so only use it if you have no other option (See full build here).

Best Talent Tree Builds For Zenobia
Below you will find the talent tree builds for Zenobia 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.
There’s multiple way to build Zenobia’s talents but this one is a universal one that you can also use with Zenobia protecting your city – with as little priority to the infantry tree. For defending structures with as many infantry troops as possible, please check out the build below.
The main idea behind this talent build is to generate as much rage as possible with Zenobia as the primary commander so the more damage you get, the more rage you generate and the faster you cycle through your healing skill to make it hard to get you down. This would require Zenobia to be expertised, especially when you run her primary to defend as your city captain so I don’t see recommending any specific order for the talents here as you liteally would need her maxed to make this work or healing will not be high enough to compensate the incoming damage.
This is a more infantry-geared talent build that you would use for defending a structure and bringing in as many infantry troops as possible. You don’t need your Zenobia expertised for that but it will help to make more healing. First go into all the extra rage points in the Garrison Tree. Espcially Nowhere To Turn is a very important talent to have as it will grant you a ton of rage when attacked to spam your healing skill.
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:
