Hermann Prime Pairings

Zhuge Liang

Zhuge Liang is a great commander that you can pair with Hemann Prime. Zhuge Liang skill also deals AOE damage and they will provide a lot of bonuses, health, damage, etc. Together, they work really well. For this pairing, you will use Hemann as the primary commander.

Yi Seong Gye

Hermann Prime paired with Yi Seong Gye is one of the best pairings in the game for open field. The reason is that they will output an insane amount of AOE damage. Also what is great about YSG is that he has a lot of rage generation so Hemrann will also be able to use his skills more often. Now you can use the Yi Seong Gye talent tree but we recommend that you max out Hermann Prime and use his talent tree to get the most out of this pairing.

Tomyris

You can pair Hermann Prime with Tomyris but this pairing needs testing.
