What Units gain when Level Up – Conqueror’s Blade

Posted in Conqueror's Blade, Games Blog

Something I didn’t know when I started playing Conqueror’s Blade is that the stats which you see in the Unit Tree for different units are actually for level 1 and do not contain neither improvements nor level up gains nor special features gained via the Veteran system.

In this blog post I focus on the gains per level as I was curious how much better units become versus what is “advertised” and also because someone told me that units gain health and damage and all stats improve and I wanted to check if this is true.

To do this I simply took a picture of my Spear Sergeants and Pike Militia before they leveled up and here I show you the result:

Spear Sergeants Level 11 to Level 12

On the picture below you see my Spear Sergeants leveling up to Level 12 and, to my surprise, the only change I could see was an increase in Health from 8531 to 8699, which is an increase of 168 or exactly 2%.

I don’t observe any other change in stats purely from the level up.

Pike Militia Level 12 to Level 13

To get further confirmation I did the same for my Pike Militia unit going from level 12 to level 13. Here I saw also only Health improvement from 6863 to 7015 which is an increase of 152 or 2.2%.

Improvement From Level 1 to Level 12 (Spear Sergeants)

Finally, as one level may not seem impressive I wanted to compare the unit I have versus the “advertised” level 1 stats and this is what I saw:

• Health 6659 to 8699, which is an increase of 2040 or 31% (or about 185 per level). This is the most significant change. Note: 3% comes from the first Veteran skill.
• Piercing Armor Penetration from 1336 to 1411 (+75 or +5.6%). Not a very significant change. This is not due to level up – it is due to Uncommon Piercing Doctrine that I have.
• Piercing Damage from 978 to 1036 (+58 or +5.9%). This is not due to level up – it is due to Veteran skill Cold Blood.
• Blunt Defense from 420 to 485 (+65 or +15.5%). This is not due to level up – it is due to Uncommon Blunt Defense Doctrine that I have.

Conclusion

So to conclude, based on the data I have so far I can safely say that the only change in the Conqueror’s Blade units when leveling up is an increase in health.

Obviously other things come on top such as Veteran skills (a.k.a. Veterancy) and Doctrines, but levels add only health.
