In Rise of Kingdoms, Hector is an Legendary Leadership commander. He has the Leadership, Versatility, and Support talent tree.

Should you invest in Hector?

Hector is a commander that deals a lot of single-target damage. On top of that, he can be paired with various different commanders that have combo and smite, and he can also be used as a garrison commander. If you have extra gold sculptures or you need an additional commander for your troops, then feel free to invest in him.

There is also a high chance that future commanders will work well with Hector. However, if you are free-to-play and don’t have access to the best commanders in the game, then it’s better to skip him.
