Evony: Zizka

Although you can use Zizka for any activity in Evony, he is a pure Subordinate City PvP General that can fight other players.

As the lord or lady of an empire in this exciting video game, Evony: The King’s Return, you have many responsibilities.

You have to harvest resources, vanquish monsters, explore relics, train troops and construct buildings.

Zizka

To aid you with these tasks, you can purchase a variety of Generals, one of which is Zizka. This Bohemian national hero is considered one of the greatest military commanders in History.

Similarly to other Generals in Evony, Zizka has several abilities that you can use to your advantage. His special skill, Battle of Kutna Hora, reduces ranged troops’ attack by 40 percent.

It also decreases enemy ranged troops and siege machines’ defenses and health points when he is leading the army. Players should note that this special skill is always active and requires no development.

However, you can focus on developing Zizka’s specialities to enhance his capabilities. Every General has 4 unique specialities which can be used on the battlefield.

Zizka’s Siege Machine Defense speciality increases a siege machine’s health points and defense by 10 percent respectively.

Sabotage, on the other hand, decreases enemy troop defense by 10 percent while War God increases all troops’ attack by 6 percent.

His last speciality, Wagenburg Tactics, decreases enemy ranged troop and siege machine attack by 30 percent. However, it also decreases enemy ranged troop defense and health points by 20 percent each.

We therefore recommend that you enhance his specialities to improve his performance on the battlefield. Keep in mind, though, that his statistics also influence  his performance.

Zizka’s statistics

When you recruit Zizka, you will only benefit from his base statistics, but every time you increase his level, his statistics will increase. The amount by which the statistics increase is the growth.

The following table lists Zizka’s statistics:

Statistic	Base rate	Growth rate
Politics	122	8.82 percent
Attack	115	8.82 percent
Defense	109	8.85 percent
Leadership	114	8.89 percent

To increase Zizka’s statistics, you can increase his level, but you can also go through the cultivation process.

Cultivation requires Gold and Gems to increase Zizka’s statistics with a bonus amount. Every statistic can be increased by an additional 500 points if you complete this process.

Is Zizka a good General?

Zizka is one of the best Generals for countering attacks from Ranged Troops, however, he also provides some protection against Siege Machines.

Even though you can use Zika for many activities in Evony, he is a pure Subordinate City PvP General, which means that he should only be used in PvP battles.

Ascended skill buffs

Enhancing is the process of increasing a General’s star level, however, it requires Gold and Medals. if you ascend Zizka, he will unlock bonuses for his special skill.

The following table lists the bonus that he will unlock at every star-level:

Star level	Bonus
1	Enemy ranged troop attack is decreased by 10 percent Enemy Ranged Troop and siege machine defense and health points decreased by 10 percent
