Budica for the loss? Siege point in SVS. Talent Line? Ebony Kings Return - Defense like a Jedi

[@Thranduil606]

There are a few things you probably don't really understand correctly. First of all with the siege. You don't have a lot of siege. It's honestly quite surprising that you get hit by siege at all, especially from bigger players, but that's besides the point. To properly defend against siege, you also need a good number of siege, which you don't. You can have amazing siege buffs, but if you only have 2m siege per layers, or less, it's not going to take a super strong march to wipe all of them. I don't think you have nearly enough siege to be defending properly against siege, but you are not really big enough (in terms of buffs), to be building a lot of siege. Not the way you play, anyway. You won't be able to drop bubble in SvS at all. You'd most likely need to be k40 or k41 minimum, with like 3k siege attack and a lot (and i do mean A LOT) more siege to be defending against these 3500-4000% siege solos. When it comes to rallies, the fact that you don't have a lot of siege sort of works in your favour. Simply put, there isn't enough siege or archers in your keep for a big enough siege rally to go positive against you. Well, they go positive if the rally is big enough, but it's not going to be super positive. I've commented this before, but you're still a very small keep and you seem to be hyper focused on taking siege hits when you should not be (yet). With Boudica, the reason she is so popular with traps is purely just because there are no better alternatives. For traps (pure traps) your t1 cav does everything. It defends, it attacks. Buffing your Archers or your Ground by using a different wall general will have no effect other than making your buffs look a bit prettier on a battle report. Even though the buffs Boudica adds when you convert those percentages to flats is marginal increases, it's still better than using a general that offers you even less (which would be the case if you used any other general). Your options are basically to use Boudica for slight increased (probably the equivalent of 1 and a half gold Flats) or you might as well go to the tavern and buy yourself a green general because any other general would have the same effect. In your case, for 1.5m T14s, Boudica would also not make the slightest difference. Anyone with a ranged buff over 1800 will most likely still eat up all those t14s when they hit you. Again, for Boudica to be any amount of useful if you're not a trap, you're going to need a lot more top tier cav (which you don't want till you're 10x your current size).

You did bubble a few rallies. Good SVS

[@josephhaaa]

@Jedi-Temple so per your explanation of the Boudica issue, for those that do have high numbers of cav (especially high tier) would she be more useful than someone like William Marshall?

Dope intro.

Do you have a how to video on bots?

[@samueld5418]

that guy had +800% attack, better defense and hp, and better debuffs. for all that, you didn't do too bad in the solo attack. playing siege requires you to warp your entire keep build to support it. these guys are awakening sub generals like zizka and jan to max out their siege debuffs.

[@psyarmy22]

Im just about finished with my 3rd fully ascended Jan. To go with Nero and Gilgamesh, both fully ascended. I'm pushing about 1200 siege hp reduction and 1100% siege defense debuff. It makes a huge difference on defense if you build for it.

[@nickrowe151]

Hey, I’m surprised you’re trying to debuff siege defence and HP. You don’t have enough high tier siege for that to make much difference?

[@BigD4ddy847]

Oh shiet, you are from birdlovers server haha. I am pretty sure while back we fought you on my old server 1188

[@mariusconstantinescu8261]

flat refinement + higher % hp helps! because the enemy applies only 50% debuff on you! two situations: (1) flat + 1500%hp -50% = 750% hp. (2) flat +2000% hp - 50% = 1000% hp! so yes, I think it also helps %

[@kshuburner]

boudica on the wall, with mounted troops is very powerful versus anything but range. my mounted does a lot of killing vs. ground and mounted. I think good players no this. so she is a strong deterrent from facing anything but ranged. imo. I'm not gonna get rid of her yet. she helps build that strong ground wall for high tier. not sure you'll find much better ground buffs on another general. $0.02 for free. thanks man.

[@natenewsome5470]

When they send seige ghost your seige 😅

[@unclerawn4017]

i got hit with a small 45 rally, twice and won handily. i can't ghost all my cavs but cleaned out their t15 archers. boudica is great in my opinion. i only have a few flat refines because i don't want to look like a t1 trap (even though i have well over 1bil t1 cavs)

[@zalfgamer2]

Richard The Lionheart > Boudica

[@Evony-ky3js]

Also you need more siege bro stop the t-1 defense bro and start training some siege build t-13 siege wall your never going to win a siege defense with those buffs against k44 unless you have t-13 siege wall and you need at least 1 siege reinforcement
