Leveling Up – Every champion, regardless of rarity, can be leveled up to boost base stats like Attack, Defense, and Health. Take champions into battles to earn experience, or use EXP potions of varying rarities for instant leveling. Leveling enhances both champion strength and your account’s overall Combat Power (CP).

Upgrading Star Count – Each champion in DC: Dark Legion™ starts with a base star count determining their rarity, such as 5-stars for legendary champions. Increase star counts by collecting duplicate champion shards, a luck-based process. This costly method, which unlocks new abilities and boosts stats, is not advised for free-to-play beginners.

Gearing Up – Enhance your heroes’ performance by equipping powerful gear. Early on, obtain gear by clearing hideouts. Once crafting is unlocked at your base, you can create custom gear. Gear pieces and sets vary in rarity, with higher-rarity items offering more sub-stats alongside main stats from the start.

Enjoy DC: Dark Legion™ on a larger PC or laptop screen using BlueStacks, with full keyboard and mouse support.
