Is El Cid a top-notch general in Evony?
Well, he's more of a backup option. While he can hold his own in Mounted and Ground PvP, there are definitely better choices out there. It's probably a good idea to focus on developing other generals instead of putting all your resources into El Cid.
It's important to keep in mind that El Cid isn't the best choice for defence, as most of his skill boosts only kick in when he's on the attack.
Don't forget about El Cid's Special Skill - it's always active and doesn't require any extra work on your part. Make sure you understand the description so you can maximize its impact.
And hey, you can always level up El Cid through the Evony General Ascending feature. Each ascended star level will give him an extra buff to his Special Skill.
Plus, with his National Warrior ability, El Cid can increase Troop Attack by 10% when leading the army on the attack. And if he's got a dragon by his side, ground and mounted troops get a 15% attack boost. Pretty cool, right?
