In Evony, the “Duty” buttons are located on buildings in the main city and can be unlocked when these buildings reach a certain level. At this point, players can appoint Duty Generals to gain various building benefits. This article introduces the concept of Duty in Evony and summarizes the generals suitable for officer positions, providing valuable insights for players.

Tips and Notes
- The absence of the above generals does not affect the appointment of officers. Buildings can still gain benefits as long as the generals meet the requirements.
- When an officer is upgraded in tier, reappoint the general to activate the new tier’s benefits.
- As Duty Generals ascend, their Special Skills become more effective. Recruiting and ascending generals through the Tavern can enhance city defense.
- Currently, only special equipment (Consul’s Staff, Consul’s Toga) affects Duty Generals. Other equipment does not.
- No Skill Book has been applied to Duty Generals so far.
- Only a few General Specialties take effect when the General assumes Duty. Without special instructions, most specialties do not apply.
- Spiritual Beasts and Dragons do not affect Duty Generals.
These generals are currently the duty generals in Evony. Not all buildings have assigned duty generals yet, suggesting that more will be added in the future. Let’s look forward to these additions together!
