Evony General Guide and Build: Marcus Agrippa

Marcus Agrippa – “An able Roman general of the age of Augustus, with several works in circulation.”

Marcus Agrippa – Details

Is Marcus Agrippa a good general in Evony?

Marcus Agrippa is a specialist Ranged PvP General due to the huge attack buff that his Special Skill, Governor of Transalpine Gaul, generates for Ranged Troops. It also adds extra durability to Siege Machines with an additional 30% HP when they are attacking. However, you should still look to focus on Ranged marches for this General, as, despite the Siege HP buff, he still ranks low among Siege PvP Generals.

Marcus Agrippa – Builds

The below builds outline which skill books and equipment refines you should use depending on your requirements.

Ranged PvP

This build is ideal for players who are very range heavy. It sacrifices everything in favor of ranged attack whilst also topping up ranged troop HP and Defense via equipment refines. This build will ensure you do maximum damage, especially in the early game when players are quite mounted heavy.

• Skill Books:
• Lvl 4 Ranged Troop Attack – Ranged Attack +25%
• Lvl 4 Ranged Troop Range Bonus – Ranged Troop Range +100
• Lvl 4 March Size – March Size +12%
• Equipment Refines:
• Bow – Ranged Troop Attack % x4
• Armor – Ranged Troop Defense % x4
• Boots – Ranged Troop Defense % x4
• Helmet – Ranged Troop HP % x4
• Leg Armor – Ranged Troop HP % x4
• Ring – Ranged Troop Attack % x4

Siege and Ranged PvP

Due to this general’s buff to both ranged troops and siege machines, it can be a good play to run a mixed march with both troop types in certain scenarios. This build will work well for these situations. Siege range is prioritized over siege attack as siege attack is already very high with the additional range giving you some extra attacks before the enemy has you in their range.

• Skill Books:
• Lvl 4 Ranged Troop Attack – Ranged Attack +25%
• Lvl 4 Ranged Troop Range Bonus – Ranged Troop Range +100
• Lvl 4 Siege Troop Range Bonus – Siege Troop Range +200
• Equipment Refines:
• Bow – Ranged Troop Attack % x4
• Armor – Ranged Troop Defense % x4
• Boots – Ranged Troop Defense % x4
• Helmet – Ranged Troop HP % x4
• Leg Armor – Ranged Troop HP % x4
• Ring – Ranged Troop Attack % x4
