DC: Dark Legion Gear Guide (From Alloy to Mythic Sets)

If you want to keep scaling in DC: Dark Legion, you can't ignore gear. It’s one of the biggest power boosts available to your heroes, and once you hit the mid to late game, gearing the right way can make or break your squad.

‍

Gear is one of the biggest late-game power spikes in the entire system. Whether you’re pushing Checkmate PvP, climbing Campaign stages, or prepping for Supreme Commander, your gear setup matters more than most players realize.

‍

But if you enhance blindly or waste Mirror Cells on the wrong piece? You could lose out on major stats, rare resources, or even faction bonuses.

‍

This guide covers it all: how to get hero gear, what makes Mythic gear special, and how enhancement and transmutation actually work.

‍

Let’s start with why gear plays such a crucial role in DC: Dark Legion.

‍

Why Gear Matters in DC: Dark Legion

‍

Gear in DC: Dark Legion isn’t just about flat stats, it influences your champions' effectiveness across PvE, PvP, and competitive events like Supreme Commander. Once your champions hit max level (currently 580), gear becomes the main factor in power scaling.

‍

Each gear piece offers different bonuses depending on the slot and class. On top of that, transmuted gear with faction synergy can give major passive boosts.

‍

If you’re not gearing smart, you’re leaving a lot of potential on the table.

‍

How to Get Gear (and What Alloy Is For)

‍

You can start crafting gear through the Armory fairly early, using a resource called Alloy. As you progress, Alloy becomes a key material alongside Chips for gear creation and upgrades.

‍

The system encourages repetition: craft gear, deconstruct unwanted pieces, and use the materials to level up your Armory. As you do, you unlock access to higher rarity gear, including Epic, Legendary, and eventually Mythic.

‍

Gear ranges include:

• Uncommon

• Rare

• Rare+

• Epic

• Epic+

• Legendary

• Mythic (max level 500)

‍

Getting your first level 500 Mythic piece opens up a new system entirely: transmutation.

‍

‍

What Is Gear Transmutation (and Why It’s Late Game)

‍

Once you own or craft a level 500 Mythic gear piece, you unlock the ability to transmute gear. This lets you customize stats and unlock powerful faction-based bonuses, but it’s resource-intensive.

‍

Transmutation uses Mirror Cells, which can be earned by:

‍

• Reaching level 35 in the Armory (lets you craft them)

• Progressing in Realm of Fate (Training Simulator mode)

• Advancing to Phase 2 in the Combat Cycle

‍

Each transmutation level requires more Mirror Cells to unlock, and higher-level rolls need a second rare currency called Intertrons (used to lock preferred stats).

‍

It’s costly and grind-heavy so save it for gear with tag synergy.

‍

‍

Faction Tag Gear: Why Synergy Matters

‍

Some Mythic gear comes with a faction tag like Justice League Dark, Superman Family, or Legion of Doom. If you equip that gear on a hero from the same faction, you’ll get a +20% stat bonus on top of the base stats.

‍

You can still equip that gear to any hero, but matching the faction gives a significant edge. Prioritize transmuting these tag-synergy pieces first, especially if they’re on core heroes like Superman, Wonder Woman, or Constantine.

‍

Transmutation Tips for Smarter Upgrades

‍

Transmutation lets you re-roll gear attributes, but once you start, that gear can’t be sold or reset. It’s permanent, so plan ahead. A few key tips:

‍

• Don’t transmute early. Wait until Armory level 35+ and focus on faction-tagged Mythic gear.

• Always check which attributes roll best for your champion’s role (e.g., ATK for DPS, HP/DEF for tanks).

• Only lock stats with Intertrons if they’re Mythic-level (or very high Legendary). They're extremely limited.

• Remember: locking a stat adds to the cost of each future transmute. Be selective.

‍

DC: Dark Legion Gear Enhancement Explained

‍

Outside of transmutation, you’ll enhance gear normally by feeding it Alloy and other materials. Gear XP scales with rarity, so don’t waste resources upgrading lower-tier items you’ll outgrow soon.

‍

Enhancing gives flat boosts, but doesn’t unlock special effects. Save heavy investments for gear that’s:

‍

• Already transmuted with solid stats

• Matched to a high-level, high-impact hero

• Going to be kept long term

‍

How to Get Mythic Gear (The Endgame Grind)

‍

Mythic gear starts at level 500 and sits at the top of the power curve. It takes significant resources to acquire and upgrade, but it’s where your late-game strength will come from.

‍

With proper enhancement and transmutation, Mythic gear provides:

‍

• Stronger base stats

• Faction synergy bonuses

• Access to multi-layered attributes

‍

Just be aware: pushing through multiple transmute levels can cost thousands of Mirror Cells, and Intertrons are even rarer. Use these tools wisely.
