How many Commander Sculptures do you need to level up all skills of a Commander to maximum level (5), or to gain the Legendary/Epic Commander’s expertise?
For a start, the maximum level of a skill for a commander of any rarity, is five (5), and every skill starts at level one (1). This means you will need to level up a skill four (4) times in order to reach its maximum level of five (5).

All Commanders have four (4) basic skills. This means you can level up the commander’s skills for a maximum of 4 x 4 = 16 times. Once a Legendary/Epic Commander has leveled up all his skills, you will gain the “Commander Expertise“, which is a new skill or an upgrade to one of the four basic skills. The “Commander Expertise” is the skill on the right-most corner with a silver frame.

Note that once your Commander reaches a Commander Level of 40, all four (4) skills are unlocked and you can choose to level up the Commander’s skills in any order. For some Legendary Commanders, it is recommended that you level up certain skills first (and skip leveling up a specific skill) in order to conserve your precious resource (Legendary Commander Sculptures). For example, it is recommended that for Guan Yu, you skip leveling up his second skill and focus on his other skills first (5155). Doing so will save you 310 Legendary Commander Sculptures (spending only 380 Legendary Commanders to achieve 5155). Check out my Commanders page for more details.
