Your Ultimate Guide to Alfred the Great in Evony

Best Paired With: Sigurd, Algernon Sidney, Franz Joseph I
Special Skill: Increases ranged troops’ attack by 30% and siege machines’ attack by 20% when General is leading the army to attack.
Is Alfred the Great a top general in Evony?
Well, when fully levelled and with maxed out specialties, he has the second-highest ranged attack in the game, just behind Simeon the Great. But, keep in mind that a big chunk of this attack power comes from the pricey final specialty.
To unlock Alfred's full potential, you'll need to invest a lot of Gems and Runestones. If you're not looking to splurge, Elektra might be a better choice as she has a higher ranged attack without maxing out the final specialty and also boasts superior ranged troop HP.
And don't forget about Alfred's Special Skill – it's always active and doesn't require any development. Make sure to carefully read the description to understand its impact on your gameplay.
Plus, you can even ascend Alfred through the Evony General Ascending feature to unlock additional buffs to his Special Skill at each ascended star level.
The Great King Boosts Attack Power
