Naughty Whip

Purpose: Combat Attack

This item has boosts for Cavalry Attack, Infantry Attack and March Speed, all of which are great for combat. The presence of March Speed makes this better suited to attack instead of defense.

Boosts:

These are superb overall boosts. Not only is this the best item for Cavalry Attack currently available but it also offers the 3rd best Infantry Attack on the same item.

Usefulness:

The boosts compliment each other well and are all useful for combat attacking. The one negative is that would prefer to see a focus on one troop-type rather than two (although this does mean it is useful for defending as well). Hard to complain though when even without the infantry attack it is currently the best cavalry attack item available.

Cost:

Silver Cost: 57,113,000

At over 50 million this falls into the moderately expensive category.

Materials:

Leather

Wax

Demon Ears

Demon Tail

Not particularly easy to build requiring 2 rare materials and 1 seasonal. It is only the presence of leather that makes it a little more manageable. However, this still represents excellent value considering the strength of the boosts. Wax is currently harder to come by then the other Winter materials that the other items use.

Conclusion

A great attacking item that is useful for defense as well. Currently one of the best attacking items available. Consider the Helheim Armor if you’d prefer a ranged boost rather than infantry.
