Doctrines
Highest level you can.
Mandatory

Sword Cavalry Battle DoctrineEpicWhile the Sprint skill is active on this unit, it will deal an extra attack that deals double damage.This extra attack cannot be triggered when using active skills.If this unit does not have the Sprint skill, this doctrine has no effect unless another Doctrine that adds this skill is applied first.
Filler
- Generic DMG doctrines (alt if you don’t have the Sprint extra-attack + Sword Cav Speed combo)
Mobility Doctrine VEpicIncreases movement speed by 7% Unlocks Sprint: increases movement speed by 15% for 12 seconds.
The X-move + Sprint extra-attack synergy is insanely strong. The Sword Cavalry Battle Doctrine + Gallop Doctrine V combo is the build’s core value. Without those, swap to generic DMG doctrines.
