What Are the Best AoW4 Tomes?
While you are still able to employ the overpowering tomes listed above in the S+ tier, there are a few AoW4 tomes that you absolutely must have. These tomes can be used during matches for significant power-ups or buffs rather than being situationally useful.
The top books in Age of Wonders 4 are as follows:
The Eternal Lord’s Tomb (Tier 5)
It can take some time to obtain the Tome of Eternal Lord in AoW 4, but the effort is worthwhile. This Tome gives you the ability to transform into the Night King using the Battlefield Reanimation. You can raise an army of the undead using the affinity tier 5 Book of the Eternal Lord and then resurrect your soldiers. It also brings back to life the slain members of your adversaries’ army, but they only have half their full health. This book also contains potent spells like Real Death Magic and Withering Mist.
The God Emperor’s Tome (Tier 5)
This affinity tier 5 tome is mainly concerned with energizing your soldiers and enhancing your different units. Using the Mass Revive ability, which restores all the units in your army to 50% health, you can alter the direction of the battle. This book also contains spells like Divine Protection, Exalted Champion, and the Wrath of the Emperor in addition to defense and support. In relation to it, the Wrath of the Emperor ability deals 20 additional spirit damage on top of the 50% damage it deals to your adversaries.
Teleportation tome (Tier 3)
The Tome of Teleportation rapidly and tactically repositions your units, as its name suggests. It is a book that focuses on mobility and can be used to move your forces around the map. You can teleport your different forces when you cast the Emergency Teleportation spell to ambush your opponents. Moreover, a number of spells are available in this affinity tier 3 tome. This comprises the Phasing Enchantment, Astral Trade Relay, Mass Recall, and Summon Phase Beast.
You can experiment and explore other Tomes in AoW4 in addition to the ones mentioned above. We’ll leave the rest up to you since it all relies on your build, playstyle, class, and experience.
