Players can acquire General Eleanor by participating in Evony’s event, Victory Praise, though you need to procure Gold Laurel Leaves for this.
Evony: The King’s Return is a thrilling mobile game that invites gamers to assume the role of a lord or lady in medieval times.
You have to expand your empire by training troops, constructing buildings, recruiting Generals, harvesting resources and defeating enemies. There are numerous Generals that you can get, one of which is Eleanor.
What is the purpose of Generals?
Generals are a key component in Evony, as you use them in everything you do. Players need Generals to do research, construct buildings, craft gear and fight foes.
There are also different rarities of Generals. The better and rarer a General is, the more effective he or she is in each of these duties.
Every General in the game has a specific role to fulfill. For instance, a Duty General can be assigned to a building to increase the building’s statistics, while a ranged player-versus-player General should only be used when attacking other players from a distance.
It is crucial that you know each of your Generals’ roles to ensure maximum efficiency.
Evony: General Eleanor
There are more than 50 Generals in Evony, with additional Generals released frequently. One of the Generals that you can acquire is Eleanor – the eldest daughter of the Rain family in the southern empire. She made great contributions in the Battle of Siren Island.
Eleanor was introduced to Evony with the Triumphal Celebration event. Gamers cannot recruit Eleanor from the tavern, they have to participate in the event to add her to their arsenal.
This event has several sub-events you can enjoy. In order to get Eleanor, you have to participate in Victory Praise.
During this event, you must consume Golden Laurel Leaves to win rewards. Players have a chance of obtaining a Sea and Night General Chest.
If you do not receive a Sea and Night General Chest after opening one 149 times, it is guaranteed that you will receive one the 150th time.
If you open the Sea and Night General Chest, there is a chance that you could obtain either Eleanor or Elise. This means that you may have to open the chest several times before you get Eleanor, however, you can also obtain her from the first Sea and Night General Chest you open.
Players can acquire a Golden Laurel Leaf by defeating monsters. However, you can also obtain the Leaf by harvesting resources or purchasing an Event Package.
It is essential to note that the Golden Laurel Leaves will disappear from Evony when the event concludes, so you should use them in time.
Reward chances
The rewards you can earn from the Victory Praise event have certain drop rates, which are indicated below:
| Reward | Drop rate |
| Sea and Night General Chest | 0.5 percent |
| 5 Blood of Ares | 5 percent |
| 50 Tactic Scrolls | 3.3 percent |
| 100 Source of Life | 1.6 percent |
| 100 Refining Stones | 10 percent |
| 50 1-hour Speedups | 26 percent |
| 100 Research Stones | 1.5 percent |
| 25 Stone Boxes | 4.2 percent |
| 40 General Experience | 4.1 percent |
The chances that you will acquire a Sea and Night General Chest are extremely slim, thus, players may not attempt to obtain a chest. We recommend that you try and collect a chest for a chance at procuring Eleanor.
Eleanor’s statistics
Similarly to other Generals in Evony, Eleanor has 4 statistics that influence her efficiency. The table below lists her base statistics and the growth rate:
