Chapter 2385 Skill Selection

Chapter 2386 Skill Selection

After pondering for a while, Rhodes opened the properties panel.

There are many special skills related to strategy, the most basic of which is special skills and tactics.

Tactics below the expert level mainly focus on combat deployment. With the blessing of this special skill, the power of each unit under its command can be exerted to its upper limit.

Take the previous undead army as an example. Under Rhodes' transformation, the undead army included some great demon undead, a large group of vampire kings, a few special elites, and a large number of ordinary corpse wizard kings. Not only that, those creatures whose core power is not the Corpse Witch King are also blessed by the power of the Ghost King's cloak, and can release the cloud of death like the Corpse Witch King.

To command rationally and bring out the strength of all legion members, tactics are indispensable special skills. This is why Rhodes appointed Farese as commander.

According to Rhodes' prediction, Farese possesses at least master-level tactics, coupled with his own good leadership skills. Although he is not a hero, he is a natural commander. This is also the first time Rhodes The reason for choosing him.

If Rhodes were to take command, it would not be difficult for the legion members to fight, but they would not be able to formulate sophisticated tactics. Speaking of command, they would only rely on the strength of the legion members to destroy the enemy.

With the special tactical skills, commanding will become extremely easy. All kinds of exquisite tactics that combine the right time and place can appear in Rhodes' mind at any time. However, Rhodes thought about it and finally gave up on improving tactics.

The greatest effect of special skills and tactics is to minimize one's own losses in battle through reasonable formation of troops.

However, for Rhodes, the loss is nothing at all. Under the influence of the Death Domain, if the enemy cannot find a way to restrain it, it will not be possible to completely kill any undead creature in the legion. Because of this, Tactics meant little to him.

Rather than arranging troops, what Rhodes values ​​more is the special bonuses that can be obtained after the tactics are upgraded to the top.

Just as the ability bonus brought by the wisdom spell after it reaches its peak, it not only makes it easier to learn fifth-level magic, but more importantly, the wisdom spell can greatly expand wisdom and detect previously ignored details.

In a sense, top-level wisdom can replace the effectiveness of tactics. Tactics is the use of wisdom, and when it comes to the use of wisdom, what is more appropriate than wisdom?

The additional bonuses brought by high-level tactics no longer involve basic command tactics, but higher-level strategic decisions. No matter what level of tactics, it is impossible to overcome the restrictions of the level and allow ordinary first-level creatures to defeat powerful legendary enemies. This is an impossible task, but it can be achieved through reasonable planning, preparation and operation. The soldiers abandon their sons to win the entire battle.

However, all tactics cannot escape the use of wisdom. Although the wisdom spell cannot cover all the effects of tactics, the legendary wisdom spell in Rhodes is enough to help him face most situations.

There are many treasures that can improve tactics. There is no shortage of commanders related to tactics in Erathia. However, treasures that can improve wisdom are extremely rare. Even long-famous mages may not have mastered the basic wisdom. The legendary wisdom technique is more powerful than Rhodes imagined.

Rhodes thought for a long time about a special skill that could assist Wisdom in strategic planning, and also bring powerful bonuses. Rhodes thought about it for a long time, eliminating wrong options one by one in his mind.

Not good at reconnaissance, not good at Eagle Eye, not good at engineering, not good at mystery... After Rhodes thought about it, it seemed that there was no special skill more suitable than tactics.

In desperation, just when Rhodes was about to improve his tactics, he suddenly seemed to think of something. A special skill that he had always ignored might be able to work wonders at this moment. Information about offensive techniques entered Rhodes' mind.

As a special skill that melee professionals must master, the bonus brought by offensive skills is very simple, that is, it increases the damage caused by melee attacks, and can be superimposed with special skills related to weapons such as swordsmanship.

When Rhodes chose the offensive technique, what he valued was not the damage bonus brought by the offensive technique, but the additional effects brought by high-level offensive techniques.

If ordinary tactics are a balanced use of the troops under your command, attacking while taking into account defense, then when offensive tactics are combined with smart surgery, an offensive that is several times more violent than conventional tactics will be launched. It is a kind of all-out effort that ignores all defenses. A fierce offensive, and only offensive techniques can bring about such an offensive.

Corresponding to the offensive skills, there are also special defensive skills, but blind defense is not a consideration for Rhodes. Compared with defense, Rhodes prefers to take the initiative.

Each special skill has its most unique effect. It is not only when holding weapons and fighting against each other that the effectiveness of offensive skills can be exerted. Whether it is a collision of momentum, a confrontation of words, or even a confrontation between two armies, the offensive technique can demonstrate its capabilities.

A being with top-notch offensive skills, his whole body is like an unsheathed sharp blade. He has nothing but constant attacks. He either cuts off all obstacles in front of him or is broken by something harder.

Rhodes recalled that the hero Tanan in the first expansion pack, his hero specialty was offensive skills. His offensive skills made his barbaric troops invincible in the war. Even the powerful crystal dragon would be split open by his axe. Unwilling to retreat, he insisted on going his own way, trying to completely destroy Brakada, and finally collapsed in the snowy area. , even the corpses were sealed by the mage and were not seen again until recently.

Rhodes had some understanding of the power of offensive skills from Tanan before, and this is what he needs urgently now.

Only with the blessing of offensive skills, his undead army can penetrate deeply into the weak mage empire like a sharp blade, seize the opportunity before the end, and gain the power to compete with the demon army.

Compared with balanced tactics, all-or-nothing offensive techniques are more favored by Rhodes.

In addition, by improving the offensive operation, you can also obtain the effect of the offensive operation itself, that is, a substantial increase in melee damage. For the current Rhodes, that is exactly the damage increase he needs. Rhodes will not be dissatisfied. The damage bonus on the body is too much.

Even if he ends his mercenary mission and fights in his original capacity, he can still receive damage from offensive spells when using Titan Arrows to launch close attacks.

Thinking of this, Rhodes finally made the decision to allocate skill points to offensive techniques.
