Based on the comparison above, each hospital officer in Evony brings unique strengths to the table. Skanderbeg excels in boosting ranged troops and siege machines within the city. Pericles offers a versatile mix of buffs, supporting the entire army while also enhancing specific troop types. Blanche, on the other hand, shines with her well-rounded buffs for all troops and a strong debuff that weakens enemy forces.

The best choice ultimately depends on your gameplay needs. If you prioritize a balanced approach with debuff capabilities, Blanche is an excellent pick. For specialized city defense, Skanderbeg is a solid option. And for an all-army boost, Pericles is your go-to.
