Honda Tadakatsu RoK . Story and Profile

Honda Tadakatsu (1548 – 1610), also known as Honda Heihachiro, was one of the most prominent samurai, generals, and daimyo of the late Sengoku and early Edo periods.

He is sometimes called one of the “Four Heavenly Kings of the Tokugawa” or the “Seven Great Spears of Japan.” Honda spent his youth serving the Tokugawa clan and first distinguished himself on the battlefield at the age of 15. Later, he played an important role in the battles of Atsukidzake, Anegawa, Nagashino, and many others.

For his bravery, Honda Tadakatsu won praise from many tough opponents. Oda Nobunaga called him “Japanese Zhang Fei” and “best samurai”, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi called Japan’s best warrior “Honda Tadakatsu in the east and Tachibana Muneshige in the west”. At the age of 42, Honda Tadakatsu took over the Otaki kingdom, became its daimyo, and lived the rest of his life in exile.

Despite participating in 57 major battles, Honda Tadakatsu was never injured, earning him the nickname “Soldier, Before Death”. On the battlefield, he is famous for his famous helmet with horns and spears which is called “Slashing Dragonfly”. His unusual clothes made him even more famous among his contemporaries and descendants.

Honda is the first RoK commander with Leadership – Versatility – Skill skills. So the best Honda Tadakatsu RoK talent is only for war in the open field and not good for Rally.

The Direct Damage factor that Honda Tadakatsu gives to enemies is very high up to 2500 but requires a lot of Rage around 1350. He has AOE that can hit 3 enemy troops at once in a fan-shapped area.
