If you watched Rage Forest tournament you would see how in almost any game that Persians were used players were simply teching and massing Savars, even when there were several games when Savars weren’t that worth as massed Arbalests weren’t that common, and is just sad how is wayy too easy to upgrade into Savars while lit 0% of the games ever saw a War Elephant despite being massively buffed in TMR release.
Upgrading Cavalier + Savar is 2200 resources and 240 seconds, which is just absurd for a cavalry UU massed from stables that not only hard counter most ranged units and are better raiders than Paladins but also are able to win vs generic Paladins.
Obvious changes that should be considered is increasing the savar upgrade, at least 1100f 650g so isn’t that much of a no-brainer upgrade, also, War Elephants deserve more respect as UU, Battle Elephant speed was buffed so after Husbandry they can outrun Arbalests, why War Elephants now needs to be slower, buff the speed from 0.8 to 0.9, also increase the base attack of non elite from 15 to 16 so Players have enough reason to use them in late-game without expecting the 1350f 850g elite upgrade that soon.
