Your Ultimate Guide to Minamoto no Yoshitsune in Evony

Best Role: Ranged

Best Paired With: Ragnar, Sigurd, Algernon Sidney

Special Skill: The attack of the ranged troops that are led by the General increases by 25%, and if the General brings any dragon, the ranged troops’ attack will additionally increase by 15%.


Would you say Minamoto no Yoshitsune is a skilled general in Evony?


Once he reaches his maximum level and all his specialties are unlocked, Minamoto no Yoshitsune becomes an incredibly strong commander with impressive ranged HP and attack stats. This means his troops can withstand a lot of damage while dealing out a significant amount of damage themselves.


However, it's important to keep in mind that 46% of his ranged troop attack power comes from his final specialty, which may be difficult to achieve without spending a lot of money. Also, it's worth noting that Minamoto is solely focused on ranged warfare, so he may not be the best choice for players looking to lead a mixed siege and ranged PvP army.
