Player reviews

They write: Gilgamesh - “slow start, bright ending.” The first seconds of the fight are ordinary, by the end of the minute his skills hit noticeably more painfully. Players are advised to keep it out of focus in order to survive the swing.

Adviсe

Ideal for long battles near objects where marches last for minutes. It doesn’t reveal itself in quick skirmishes - take Xiang Yu or Kir there.
