Hermann is epic archer commander in Rise of Kingdoms with Archer, Garrison and Skill talent tree. His main strengths include generating rage and reducing the rage of the enemies. His rage engine is extremely strong compared to other commanders, which makes him a powerful choice.

Hermann Talent Tree Builds

Here, I will talk about a few talent builds that I recommend while using Hermann as a Primary Commander. Out of the Skill Tree, Archer Tree and City Defense Builds, the most useful build is by far the Skill Tree build.

However, these builds are just suggestions and it depends on your personal preference what kind of builds you want to use. 

Hermann Garrison Talent Tree Build

The main purpose of this build is to make sure that your city defense is strong. So if you want to ensure that your city is secure from being robbed, this build is the one for you. 

When using this build, remember that your best bet for Garrison defense is a peace shield. The garrison tree will also provide defense.

This build is most recommended for players with a bit more experience. This is because it can only be optimized if you have a full archer march. It is rather powerful if you are able to optimize it. However if you do not have a full archer march, this will give you negative value.

Hermann Skill Talent Tree

This is the most recommended build, especially for beginners. It focuses on Hermann’s rage potential and is applicable to all kinds of troops. It by far is the most effective one we have come across. Below are some talents in the build and how we think you should use them. 

As I mentioned above, this is the most recommended build. This is because it places emphasis on Hermann’s rage potential and tries to enhance that with these talents.

Talents like Rejuvenate, Feral Nature and Razor Sharp generate additional rage. Since Hermann has significant rage potential, using this build will make him a formidable opponent.

Hermann Guide

There aren’t many Epic archer commanders in Rise of Kingdoms. For the time being, Hermann is the best we have.

Hermann is so powerful that he can defeat legendary commander El Cid in a one-on-one battle, and he is a special commander who can silence for 2 seconds and reduce rage by 100 points. Hermann excels in both PVP and PVE combat.

The only issue with Hermann is that he can be killed quickly. As a result, you must exercise extreme caution with him at all times or your hospital will quickly fill up.

Archers in Rise of Kingdoms can be easily killed, so be careful with all archer commanders. Especially with commanders like Hermann, who lacks skills that will allow him to survive.

His main goal is to find and silence the nuking commander. Furthermore, he will reduce target rage by 100 points. You check Rise Of Kingdoms Talent tree to see how well Hermann is performing.

Is investing in this commander a worthwhile decision in 2024? 

Although it’s likely that Hermann is not your go-to choice when you are thinking of investing in a commander, you should still consider it because he has a lot of valuable skills. His high rage engine makes him an optimal choice for both new and experienced players.

Furthermore, he has a high utility and damage, as well as the ability to silence his enemies. I believe that this makes him a worthwhile investment. If you are considering investing in Hermann, this article will give you some clarity and helps you make your decision.

Hermann Pairings

It is clear that Hermann being paired with a commander with high rage potential would be an ideal choice. I have listed some epic pairings below and talked about whether they are a good rise of kingdoms pairing or not.

However, these are just suggestions and can depend on your personal preference and experience of the game.

Keira iconKeira: Just like Kusunoki, Kiera too, is an archer and commander. Her skills focus on damage, she increases damage to enemies and reduces damage to her own troops. They make a considerably strong pair.

Sun-tzu iconSun Tzu: Sun Tzu and Hermann make a strong pair because they both have a high level of rage generation. Use Sun Tzu talent tree if you are planning to use infantry.

Boudica iconBoudica: Boudica’s skills too, focus on generating and reducing rage. Since Hermann’s skills are mostly rage generation, using these two would be a rage powerhouse. If you will use this pair for fighting barbarians use Boudica’s talent tree build.

Osman iconOsman: Osman’s skills involve very high damage factors. His 800 damage factor per active skill makes him and Hermann a strong pair. He has a strong nuking ability and can also increase troop capacity. Do not use Osman talent tree build for field fighting.

Kusunoki-Masashige iconKusunoki– Hermann and Kusunoki are an ideal pair. Although Kusunoki’s nuking ability is not as good as Hermann’s he makes up for it with his unmatchable AOE nuking ability. They do a lot of damage with their combined set of skills and are a formidable pair.

Great choice if you do not have YSG and Ramesses. They will buff Archer damage and provide some nice nuking. Kusunoki will provide 15% more defense. It’s not much but it will give you some survivability.

Joan-of-Arc iconJoan Of Arc: It is a useful pair if you want to maximize utility and rage.

Legendary Pairings 

Next, I will talk about some legendary pairings. Just like for the epic pairing, it is ideal to pair Hermann with commanders with high rage potential. Here are some pairings to consider. 

Yi-Seong-gye iconYi Seong Gye: is Great pairing for Hermann. They will provide so much nuke damage. Because Hermann haves a 10% chance to generate 100 rage points, that will provide for YSG faster usage of skills. yi-seong gye talent tree and skills have high rage generation which makes the two of them a formidable pair because Hermann’s skills will be maximized with a secondary that has high rage too.

El-Cid iconEl Cid: Well El Cid is ok pair but it not worth getting El Cid on max skills. It’s better to use Kusunoki instead of wasting golden sculptures on the commander that is in same as Hermann. Just like for the epic pairing, it is ideal to pair Hermann with commanders with high rage potential. Here are some pairings to consider.

Frederick iconFrederick :- This is not the best choice because Fredrick does not contribute a lot to the rage. However, he does considerable damage, so although it is not the optimal choice it is still pretty strong.

Mehmed iconMehmed: Mehmed gains more from Hermann’s skills than the other way around. Since he does a lot of damage, Hermann’s rage allows him to do considerable damage. This is the pair for you if you want to create a lot of damage. It is best to use the Mehmed talent tree build if you want to hide your Herman so enemy players do have a hard time seeing your Hermann.

Lu-Bu iconLu Bu: Lu Bu’s being paired with Hermann will generate a considerable amount of rage and will also reduce the rage of the enemy. This pairing is highly recommended if you are in the initial stage of the game. It will provide a strong defense to your city.

Skill Unlock Order

If you decide to invest in Hermann, here is a guide on the order in which you should unlock his skills. Since Hermann has a huge rage engine, I recommend maximizing the skills that involve increasing the rage (ambush, military genius and national hero).

In this way you will have as little points as possible on the legend of Teutoburger skill. Although it is a powerful skill to have, it’s more efficient to have your points in places that are most relevant to Hermann.

Hermann Skills

Hermann has four main skills. Here I will talk about what each of these skills do and why they are so useful. 

Hermann guide Ambush Ambush

Hermann’s active skill is this. It has a damage factor of 1150. This skill is useful because it reduces the enemy’s rage by 100 and silences them for two seconds each time it is used.

Lore

Arminius, also known by his German name Hermann, was a Germanic Cherusci tribe chieftain who famously led an allied coalition of Germanic tribes to a decisive victory against three Roman legions in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest in 9 AD.

Arminius, an auxiliary lieutenant to the Roman general Publius Quinctilius Varus, ambushed and destroyed the legions using his knowledge of Roman tactics.

The Roman Empire’s permanent strategic withdrawal from Magna Germania was precipitated by the defeat at Teutoburg, and the Romans made no further concerted attempts to conquer and hold Germania beyond the Rhine river. Arminius’ victory is regarded by modern historians as “Rome’s greatest defeat” and one of history’s most decisive battles.
