DC: Dark Legion Reroll Guide and F2P Tips

Starting your journey in DC: Dark Legion can feel overwhelming with all its systems and characters. As a free-to-play player, you need to be smart about your resources to progress efficiently. The game offers plenty of opportunities to collect powerful heroes and build strong teams without spending money, but you need to know where to focus your efforts.

In this guide, I'll walk you through everything you need to know about playing DC: Dark Legion as a F2P player, including whether rerolling is worth it, how to get free summons, and how to make the most of your early game experience.

Getting Started in DC Dark Legion

When you first start DC: Dark Legion, you'll be introduced to the Batcave, which serves as your main base. The War Room is the most important building here - it's like your town hall that determines the maximum level of other rooms and unlocks new features as you upgrade it.

Keep in mind that you won't be able to access your pre-registration rewards until you reach a specific War Room level. These rewards include your choice of a Champion (from Batman, Harley Quinn, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, or Flash). You'll need to claim these from your mail first and then go to your inventory to open the yellow box called "Dark Legion Welcome Bundle."

For free players, I recommend choosing Green Lantern as your Champion. He's currently the best healer in the game with unmatched healing capabilities and a valuable second stun ability. If you're planning to spend a little, Batman would be a good second choice since you can get his shards through affordable starter packs.

DC Dark Legion F2P Progression Strategy

Free Heroes You Can Get Right Now

While every hero in DC Dark Legion is technically obtainable through motherboxes, there are several heroes that you can get for free through specific events, rewards, and game progression. These guaranteed heroes form a solid foundation for your team without requiring any summons or gem spending.

Here are the heroes you can get for free right now:

• Green Arrow
• Harley Quinn: Obtained from the 7-day login reward
• Champion Choice: From pre-registration rewards, you can choose one from Green Lantern, Batman, Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, or Flash.
• Path of Justice: Get a free champion.
• Red Hood: Special event character available through the Royal Rankings event, where you get his shards just by increasing your overall power.

Smart Resource Management

The most important currency for F2P players is your Source Energy Gems. You need to be very careful with how you spend these.

The best way to use your gems is through the Interstellar Visitor event that happens every weekend. Instead of spending gems on daily summons in the Mystery Store, save them for this event. This is by far the best value for your gems.

Optimize Your Base

For your Bas, focus on these priorities:

1. War Room - Always prioritize upgrading this room since it unlocks new features and determines the level cap of other rooms.
2. Drone Room - This generates drones that can speed up building timers.
3. Construction Centers - When upgrading your shelter, choose the Construction Center option (which reduces building timers) before the Commerce Sector (which increases dollar production). You can change this later, but it costs 100 gems, so plan carefully.

To get enough reputation to upgrade your War Room, focus on completing main missions rather than patrols, as they give much more reputation (1,000-2,000 vs just 10-12 from patrols).

When doing story missions, be careful to collect all resources you see on the map. Your character won't automatically collect them unless they walk directly through them, so make sure to manually click on resources to collect them.

How to Get Free Summons in DC Dark Legion

As a free-to-play player in DC Dark Legion, understanding the summon system is vital to efficiently building your roster. The game offers two main types of summoning: the standard motherbox summons and the limited banner summons using World Anvil Fragments.

The motherbox system is your primary source of heroes as a F2P player. Motherboxes come in different colors - green, blue, purple, yellow, and red - with higher tiers giving better rewards and chances for rare heroes. When you open these motherboxes, you'll get various resources and potential hero shards. The green boxes might give you legendary hero shards, while purple, yellow, and red boxes have increasing chances to give you mythic hero shards or even complete heroes.

You'll accumulate motherboxes naturally by playing the game. The main sources include map exploration, bat signals, the main mission, and Store. As you progress, you'll notice your collection of motherboxes growing steadily. The key is to save them for the Supreme Commander event then open any remaining ones on Day 5.

For the premium banner summons, you'll need World Anvil Fragments. These are used for limited banners featuring specific heroes like Superman. As an F2P player, these are harder to come by, but you can still obtain them through events, some purchases in the Mystery Store using gems, and redeeming codes. It's crucial to be selective about which banners you pull on - save up for heroes that will significantly improve your team.

Best F2P Characters to Invest In

As a free-to-play player, your resources are limited, so it's important to focus on characters that give you the most value and are readily available. Fortunately, DC Dark Legion provides several strong heroes that are accessible without spending.

• Wonder Woman is one of the best investments for F2P players. You receive her for free at the start of the game, and she performs excellently as a tank. Her ability to provide shields and stun enemies makes her valuable in almost all content. She also fits into multiple team compositions with tags like Justice League and Metahuman, giving her great long-term value.
• Green Arrow is another free starter character worth investing in. As a solid damage dealer, he excels at single-target damage and can help you clear early content.
• Mera is an excellent healer that F2P players should prioritize. While Green Lantern might be the top-tier healer, Mera is more accessible and provides reliable healing that will keep your team alive through difficult content. Her healing circle creates a sustained area of effect that can turn the tide of battle.
• Harley Quinn, who you'll receive from the 7-day login reward, is definitely worth building. She offers excellent self-healing through damage dealt, making her surprisingly durable.
• For F2P players with a bit of luck who manage to pull Superman from the current banner, he's absolutely worth investing in. As one of the strongest characters in the game, his freeze ability and defense reduction make him a cornerstone for any team. Even at low star levels, he provides significant value.

Game Modes to Focus On

To progress efficiently, make sure to prioritize these game modes:

1. Meta Brawl
2. Anti-Crime Network
3. Training Simulator
4. Combat Cycle
5. Darkest Timeline
6. Main Story

Should You Reroll in DC Dark Legion?

Rerolling in DC Dark Legion means starting a new account to try and get better starting heroes, particularly Mythic ones like Superman from the current banner.

Is it worth it? For most players, I'd say no. Here's why:

1. The game gives you enough strong characters to progress through early content, including Wonder Woman and Green Arrow right from the start.
2. You get a free hero from pre-registration rewards.
3. The rates for Superman are quite low (around 3-4%), so you might waste a lot of time rerolling.
4. You'd miss out on the pre-registration rewards if you start after the promotion ends.

However, if you really want to reroll for Superman, here's how:

1. Create a new account
2. Progress to War Room level 5-6 (takes about 100-120 minutes)
3. Do your summons on the Superman banner
4. If you don't get Superman, start over

While Superman is a very strong character with his freeze ability and defense reduction, remember that team composition and synergy often matter more than individual power.

Conclusion

Being a free-to-play player in DC Dark Legion is totally viable if you manage your resources wisely. Take advantage of all the ways to get free summons - from motherboxes to event rewards. Be strategic about when you use your resources to get the most value from the game's weekly events.

Remember that team composition and synergy matter more than individual character power - even A-tier characters in the right team can outperform higher-ranked heroes in a less synergistic setup. Building around tags like Justice League, Legion of Doom, or Birds of Prey can provide significant bonuses to your team.

With proper planning and resource management, you'll be able to enjoy everything DC Dark Legion has to offer without spending a dime. Good luck building your team of heroes and villains!
