Welcome to the thrilling world of DC: Dark Legion, an action-packed strategy game set in the iconic DC Universe. Developed by KingsGroup, this mobile game seamlessly blends real-time strategy with RPG elements, allowing you to recruit and lead your favorite heroes and villains in epic battles against formidable threats. Although the game is still in development, it has conducted multiple open beta tests across various regions, giving eager players a chance to dive into its mechanics. This beginner's guide aims to break down these core mechanics in simple terms, ensuring you're ready to jump in when the game is released.
Levelling Up
In DC: Dark Legion, every champion, regardless of their rarity, can be leveled up to boost their base stats like Attack, Defense, and Health. You can level up your champions by taking them into battles, where they earn experience points. Alternatively, you can use EXP potions of different rarities to level them up directly. As your champions grow stronger, not only does their individual power increase, but your overall account's Combat Power (CP) also rises, making you a more formidable force in the game.
Upgrading Star Count
Every champion in DC: Dark Legion™ starts with a base star count, which determines their rarity. For instance, legendary champions begin at 5-stars. To increase this star count, you'll need to use shards of the same champion. This process can be a bit of a gamble, as you'll need to acquire duplicate copies of the champion, making it a costly endeavor. While it's not the most budget-friendly option for new, free-to-play players, upgrading your star count is a powerful way to unlock new abilities and enhance your hero's stats.
Gearing Up
Beyond leveling up, you can further enhance your heroes by equipping them with robust gear. In the early stages, you can acquire gear by clearing out hideouts. Once you unlock the crafting feature at your base, you can start creating your own gear. Gear pieces and sets vary in rarity, and depending on their rarity, they offer main stats and additional sub-stats. Higher rarity gear comes with more sub-stats right from the start, making your heroes even more powerful.
For an enhanced gaming experience, consider playing DC: Dark Legion™ on a larger screen using your PC or Laptop with BlueStacks, along with your keyboard and mouse. This setup provides smoother gameplay and more precise control, making your journey through the DC Universe even more enjoyable.
