This talent build focuses on reducing the incoming damage as well as skill damage from the invaders. It also increases the rage restoration, which will let Theodora uses her active skill as many as possible during the fight.
Second Garrison Talent Build
This alternative version of garrison talent build gives slightly more defense than the first one.

She also can empower Theodora’s fighting capabilities as the primary garrison Commander. They are an excellent combination that can be a significant threat to the enemies in PvP battles.
Yi Sun-Sin: He is another fantastic garrison Commander that is a perfect match to Theodora. He gives lots of defensive stats as well as a shield that can abord a certain amount of damage. Although his abilities are lack of dealing AoE damage, he and Theodora are still a fearful force on the battlefield.
Sun Tzu: He is one of the best epic Commander in the game. He can pair well with Theodora since he has an active skill that deals AoE damage. Additionally, he has a useful passive skill that can increase the active skill damage; this will further improve the overall damage to invaders.
