Too be honest, both of them are good along with their advantages that compliment them as a good general. For starters Octavian is good but he is costly, atleast his skills compliment his cost somehow, he can be upgraded to 8 archer points. With archer commander skills plus his talent good (additional 10% crit) along his other accuracy and besiege he could be deadly (give him a crit item if you upgraded mobility in your senate -the archer tactics, if not give him mobility because of how slow archers could be, but then again why get octavian when you could get Mithridates? He can be upgraded up to 9 archer points, he has a besiege like octavian and which compliment his scare talent, then he has a terrain bonus which is one of the best terrain skill, then has an advantage skill like Drusus and he cost less than octavian). On the other hand Drusus is also good since his talent (Inspire) compliment with his advantage skill. More over his hide and Rain of arrows is atleast good when defending in urban and when you are attack by archers.
Now I must say that as of the moment of reading thread about them, they are good, what you must think of is how both of the generals compliment your playstyle and what is laking in your team.

Well i have drusus, but i load my state several times because i dont like how my team looks ( my problem is i am a bit perfectionist) , i like drusus moral but i admire Octavian and he is good, i cant decide, probably i choose Octavian because i admire him, but Drusus looks good and he is good. PD: i upgrade the attack of archer units, but when the update come out i will upgrade mobility +2 or 3+ and attack +20, and im waiting for the new items.
My team looks like :
Pompey - Crasus (city destroyer, i like more crasus than vercingetorix because he is more offensive and dont need laurel crown to be good) Cav commander (Cavalry commander, guerrilla , assault and i dont what skill put in the 4th slot) - Probably Antony or Scipio (for 2nd cavalry general) Mithridates - Octavian / Drusus (mithridates with pompeii gladius + oration and octavian/drusus i think crossbow)
PD2: i will change the name of the post

Neither are bad choices. Maybe octavian tho as he can attack twice, but if you want someone who is very hard to kill and deals nice crit damage, get Drusus. Octavian can be encircled and destroyed. Drusus not so much

Drusus not so much Truee, like what happen to my Mithridates and Cleo when they got encircled by enemies 😅

As perfectionist, what you like is the most priority. Both of them are good IMO. Octavian is slightly better (He very very good when command 5 units legion but it's hard to build legion in actual play)

Even my spartacus is debuffed a good amount.

Well, you have a rather unique opportunity. You can buy buy every single general you like or you are interested in, test him in battles and then reload your file. Thus you will have a sound understanding what to do next and how good some of these generals really are.

Sounds like you actually want Octavian but are unsure if you want to give up the inspire talent. I can assure you there is nothing in this game that requires any of the high morale generals or items to complete. Go with the one you really want.
