Effective Commander Pairings

Pairing Lohar with commanders who complement his strengths can significantly enhance battlefield performance. Notable pairings include:

Aethelflaed: Her area-of-effect damage and debuffs, combined with increased damage to barbarians, make her an excellent primary commander when paired with Lohar.
Boudica: Offers rage restoration and healing, further sustaining troops during prolonged engagements.
Cao Cao: His mobility and additional damage to neutral units make him a formidable partner for swift barbarian hunts.

Strategies for Maximizing Lohar’s Potential

  • Barbarian Farming: Utilize Lohar’s healing abilities and experience bonuses to continuously engage barbarians, reducing the need for frequent returns to the city and accelerating commander leveling.
  • Resource Efficiency: The “Trophy Hunter” talent provides additional resources upon defeating barbarians, aiding in the accumulation of valuable materials.
  • Commander Leveling: Pair Lohar with lower-level commanders to take advantage of his experience boost, expediting their progression.

By strategically employing Lohar in these roles, players can enhance their PvE effectiveness, gather resources efficiently, and develop a robust lineup of commanders in Rise of Kingdoms.
