Just when the mobile gaming industry seemed to hit a lull, FunPlus International shook things up last week with the release of DC: Dark Legion™, a DC-themed action-strategy RPG that's taken the scene by storm. Launched to positive reviews, the game strikes a balance between being friendly to free-to-play (F2P) gamers and offering advantages to those willing to spend. In this comprehensive guide, we'll delve into strategies for F2P players to make the most of their spending in the game's various currency stores, alongside tips for paying players to ensure they get the best value from their microtransactions. Let's dive in!
Source Energy Gems – The Premium and Freemium Currency
In DC: Dark Legion™, Source Energy Gems, or simply "Gems," serve as the game's premium and freemium currency. This means that both F2P and paying players can earn and use Gems, without any currency being exclusive to paid users—a refreshing change from similar titles. Here's how players can acquire these valuable Gems:
Empowered Legacy – This is the paid version of the battle pass known as "Legacy" within the game. Players can engage in special challenges and daily missions to gain experience and level up their Legacy. Each level offers both a free and a premium reward. Opting for the premium version, which costs about $10, unlocks enticing rewards such as World Anvil fragments, Legacy pieces supply, AC/DC shards, and, of course, Gems.
Gift of the Source – A one-time purchase that permanently unlocks a second construction queue, the Gift of the Source is a steal at just $2. It also immediately grants you 120 Gems upon purchase, making it an excellent deal for players looking to enhance their gameplay experience.
Growth Funds – Another one-time offer, the Growth Funds cost around $20 and reward players based on in-game achievements. The level of your War room is key to determining the rewards you receive, which can include Gems, drones, intel, World Anvil fragments, cash, and more.
For those looking to enjoy DC: Dark Legion™ on a larger screen, consider playing on your PC or laptop with BlueStacks. This setup not only enhances your gaming experience with a bigger display but also allows for more precise control with your keyboard and mouse.
