Haven't played since 2012. Coming back. It's going to be like a brand new game after not playing so long, and so much has changed. Thx for the video and information. You rock!
As someone who’s struggled to understand anything more than basic combat in this game , those video was super helpful and well put together thanks a lot.
If everyone made content this thorough and well articulated for the games they play there would be a lot less confusion in general. I no-lifed this game for a long time and took a long, long break and finding this video made it super easy to seemlessly kind of slide back into my grove. This is super well done man.

Have seen and almost tried this game several times over the years. Just now finally pulled the trigger and played a bunch today. Got to level 16 or something. This game is so dope! I appreciate this guide a ton! Very well put together and concise. Made having a direction to move towards a breeze. Thank you much!
I stopped playing 5 years ago but it seems like the game has grown to be more f2p friendly from what I've seen. Starting over soon so this will be a helpful refresh.
Man I played and bought this for my PS3 at launch and played about 2-3 years straight. I still have my physical edition of this game. It was my first MMO and met a lot of my friends through this game. I just logged back in and shit has changed so much than back in 2012 its insane
Thank you for this information, iEddy. I'm a returning player after being gone since 2013 when I left the game after 2 years of play. Nice to see DCUO is still around. :D
Thanks for this I used to be a veteran player back when Sony owned the rights to the game, and when Daybreak first started pushing out content when they took over. I was on PC (a very low tech one sadly) and was a rage tank/dps with a side villain character. Finally decided after all these years to rejoin this crazy world on the Xbox side this time (maybe now I won't have lag and other issues). And I must say I'm surprised to see all the new changes the game has undergone both visually and gameplay wise. But the one thing I see that hasn't changed is the crazy prices in the broker let me tell you that place has always been money hungry pit 🙄. Once again thanks for giving me all the helpful information let's see if this old vet still has what it takes to play and maybe rekindle that old spark.
I discovered this video on my Home Screen and this video guide was so fluent and easy to understand. I am now waiting for my download of DCUO to complete so I can play. Good video I give A like and subscribed!
Been playing as f2p for many years, and only just now coming back to discover how much more content is available for free players these days, so this video is coming in handy even for those with some small amount of experience.
I haven't played since i was like 12. Im 26 now, thanks, this really is helpful since i just started and reached level 9 Everything is so fresh and so much new content!
As a fan of City Of Heroes I've been passively waiting for the next best thing. I played this game about years ago now and I am thinking of getting back into it. You're explanation was awesome! I am downloading it now. Thanks!!
Hey there, iEddy, I just wanted to thank you for making this video. I haven’t played since 2019 and I’m hoping to get back into DCUO. This video is very helpful and would highly recommend to both, new and returning players. It has everything from the very beginning of the game, up to the very late endgame. And bye the way, I subscribed to you because I’ve been loving your tutorial videos. Have a wonderful and beautiful day. 😊
I haven't played since the skill point over haul back in like 2017 or so. I've always wanted to get a style set as well and this video helped point me in the right direction. I've had such a hard time getting up my CR before the episodes went free for all.
I started playing again after 10yrs. I then went through a struggle and discontinued my internet to cut down down on bills, after about a year I got that internet back up. Now I’m at it again. This game is a lot of fun but can be confusing as hell. 10yrs ago I never even beat the game. But now I’m hooked! Still don’t understand the whole thing about quarks & time capsules but it sounds important. I’ve been selling my time capsules man! 😤
Awesome breakdown for us noobies man. Been playing literally only about 2 weeks, and so far I've had a blast. It is definitely a grind. I'm started to see the massive benefit to having a membership. Thanks once again! ~Cheers!
its def a MASSIVE grind but I've been playing about a month so a few weeks longer than you and its been great. Need any help with runs? let me know! I want to have a crew!
@@ParisTheGreat My bad for the late reply my bro! Yo0o I'm down to link up with you man we can def run some missions and link! YES I can definitely can use the help, I'd take all the help I can get! I'm actually a tank and I'm absolutely loving all the technicalities it takes to be a "good" one, because it def takes work with the build once you find one. Haha I was recently invited to a League and they're all cool too, would be could if you'd join haha! Blessings bro!
Thank you so much for this. I've played before but never got to end game content. Just come back to it to try and understand it again and this video makes it 10x easier. Now, to find people to play w lol
This is one of the best beginner guides I've seen. Tells you everything you need to know in short and to-the-point snippets of information without bogging the noob ( me ) down with a bunch of technical info or terms I might not know yet. I have a friend who was helping me out with the game and when he was done, I was still confused on everything and you cleared it up in no time.
Just started playing on Switch after feeling nostalgic from playing City of Heroes in like...2008. Really enjoying the first handful of levels so far! Thanks for the video. An MMO is always so overwhelming at first, so it is much appreciated. I'm planning on mainly playing solo just for fun, but who knows!
I hope the beginning and tutorial won’t be too hard to beat like it was when I first started playing on Braniac’s ship back in 2014. I now have the free version on my switch.
This was so helpful. Im a constantly returning player but I've never really gotten into the game. Came back to CR 63 and forgot how to even play the game. This video helped me a lot.
Hey man pointer on sharing with other characters as you pointed out already our inventories in our banks and even the shared bank it’s always gonna be full if you need to give something to another character rather than put it in the shared bank just go ahead and send it to the other character in an email and then it won’t be taking up any inventory space until they actually except the item and you can send five items at a time can’t send cash anymore do your own characters but you can still send items
Think I said this before but good video dude for the new player it does give them all kinds of information that would be very hard to figure out on their own but it also in a way gives them some advanced information they’re not going to understand until they get there
I love Comics love this game but really confused for years on what to do I only play by myself I would love to play with you so you can show me the right way to do it mostly the weekends when my grandson not here
The for salvaging all that gear you got that you’re not wearing you should ta to make sure whether or not the style has been collected yet if it says not collected even if it’s a worse piece of gear and you’re going to sell it in anyway you should put it on and then swap back to your good piece that way you’ll collect that style if that stuff is important to you
Yeah I had a 255 skip character from a while back and I asked Bentley skipped him to 310 last week and I am now in the process of building a new character almost exactly like that character to go back and do all the content which will also get me a lot of those fees that I miss but there’s the other side of it is when you skip ahead like that completes a whole bunch of contact for you and you can’t go back and do it it’s not listed anymore you can just go back and do it anyway and so you miss a lot of stuff and since I haven’t play the game for years exam logging in that one time and skipping a character I had I wanted to go back right from the start and play through it all the 1 to 30 part and actually Learn the game
I haven’t played this game in about 4 years, they added so many things that weren’t there before. Might join back, if I can find my old account that is XD.
I've returned to the game after years of not being online. I honestly need to know if a whole lot has changed in the time i've been gone, hence why I came to your video Eddy. I appreciate the video as always. (leaving this comment mid-video)
Hey man! Welcome back. Yup a lot has changed. Take a look at this video, this should answer all your questions. 😊 th-cam.com/video/Faa-_QENBs8/w-d-xo.html
And I’m bad it amazes me that many MMO‘s don’t have any way to share items between characters except for paid a win type situations where you have to buy shared space for that purpose but DCO has two ways to do it you can mail them to that character or put them in the shared bank space I don’t understand how this isn’t like at the top of the top 5.8 miles it is it is it has so many features that are friendly even while being a free to play game with Peter win aspects it still has so many features that are friendly to the free to play environment or to the entire community really
Hey Eddie it occurs to me that your alternate characters might also be a good way to store items you don’t have space for I’m not sure how long email can go unaccepted But it occurs to me that you can mail five items at a time to anyone so if you don’t have space in your shared area to do it you can just mail them to another character on your account and then we were in the mail and tell you need them
Reallt enjoying this on Nintendo switch oled! Just started playing an I too late? Was looking for mmorpg on switch this seem to be the best current one
which power "Light " based type is a good substitute for free play players that have no access to either two lantern ring light powers, quantum, or atomic? I am asking this because I am creating a hypothetical character that would have been the ultimate beneficiary to ending the crisis war more quickly if he were to exist in the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" Three-Parter special; So is Gadget energy more powerful against the shadow demons than the fire power? Or does Fire count as a light power for the shadow demons to fear?
Because they don't wana lose their precious game... they'll now give you for free what they've been charging ppl who have been playing the game for years... I could go in loool
Exactly it’s like handing civilian a loaded MP five and telling them to get all go out and use it appropriately do you have in your ear handing a person weigh overpowered character compared to what they are used to I’m expecting him to understand it it’s it’s not a great process for new people want to know the game and you want to create a new alternate that is one thing
Yeah I just want free to play this I mean legendary membership this weekend so that I can get the extra storage space the replay badges and access to all of the superpowers I’m not sure what else and there that I’ll find useful but mostly I wanted all the superpowers
I'm coming back after first playing in 2018 and getting overwhelmed by the amount of vendors in the main hub areas. I just hit 30 on the character I'm playing and wonder what exactly I should be working on next. I have artifacts but need catalysts to get them past 40 and also as I understand it I'll need better gear to raise my CR. Considering just how many story episodes there are and the number of things to do, I just don't know where to start. This is on Xbox, villain side if that matters.
That’s where I’m stuck right now is to find how to teleport to the different locations in DC universe . I only have 2 locations central City and the second location skyler basse and I don’t have any more new locations to go to how can I get them ?? And also I’m stuck in instances in the On duty menu I tried to find them how can I find them
Level up to unlock more locations. Click on warp menu, go to house of legends, then go to the tallest structure in the middle, that's your teleporter to everywhere. For On duty, go to your settings and then key bindings, see the key for on duty menu, as it is different for PS, Xbox, PC etc. Once you are in on-duty menu, pick solos, duos, alert or raid to run stuff. But please note, leveling up will unlock more content, you cannot run high level content if you do not have the required combat rating. Good luck.
Good video dude I’m kind of looking around to pick something back up email from long ago and I’m looking to DC you oh and you are alleviated a lot of my concerns it sounds like a lot of the original gating that lead to our required purchases to play the game is gone like the fact that you can play all the Contant for free it used to be able to do that also I remember powering your base was very difficult unless you had a membership because your currency was cabinet like 2000 and it took a lot more than that the power rubbed your base seems like anything you earned over 2000 went into escrow so your purchases couldn’t be more than 2000 at a time
you just gotta make a onetime purchase of 5 or more to get premium permanetly and get unlimited money more inventory the abilty to trade items actually use chat and able to put 5 things on the broker
This is guaranteed to be paid to win. You must know that going in if you want to be a DPS if you care about scores and boards you're going to be paying a lot of money. Because 120 artifacts you're not going to cut it you're going to be going against people with 200s and full leakier that make this a job. So if you don't want to spend a lot of money and you're okay with not being on the top the game is good a really good game. But if you're pocket is not full this game will be very frustrating
I have several tunes that I keep it lower level intentionally, this tune I’m on now it’s too big to go to Gas metal DC and convert her coin to source Mark. Is there a way to do this anymore since the teleporter system of the watchtower has been abandoned. Thank you bro.
Hello, I joined the game in the beggining to play gadgets controller. Is it a good power today? In the past I wanted to create a theme Batman character but not many things. Today I see many costumes, are ALL still available? I would like to collect every Batman thing
Hi! Welcome to DCUO! =) Gadgets is definitely top tier power. But since you are choosing to be a controller, there are few things you should learn beforehand. Here is a complete guide on What Controlling is in DCUO and how it works? The types etc. Take a look =) th-cam.com/video/pMP1CcNSgcc/w-d-xo.html As for Batman styles, yes they are all available, some are rare and expensive but you can definitely get them in time. Good luck =)
That is correct. So every gear piece you will collect, is also a style. You can go to House of Legends and check all the vendors one by one, most of them had styles which you can buy from source marks. You can also go to vendors for each DLC and check the gear they have to offer. That will also give you styles. Incase I misunderstood your question and you were asking about gear only, do on-duty missions related to your combay rating and get stronger gear which drops. You will also get source marks from running those missions, which you can use to buy gear from vendors according to your combat rating.
Great vid!!! Should you open boxes that have a min max level like cybernetic Sorceresss SShoulderguards box? Should I wait till im a higher level currently level 20.
Question. Is gear even important? Since everyone just gets scaled to appropriate CR and stats for a run, does Role specific gear matter? Are the only things that matter Artifacts and sp?
Yes. For older content, your CR does get scaled but in end-game content (Last 3 DLC's). You need gear to play and successfully complete. Especially, Elite raids/alerts. Also, if you won't have gear, you won't get your combat rating up, means you won't be able to que for content because its all based on combat rating. =)
First, want to thank you for all your hard work that went into this video. I found your channel yesterday and this beginner guide is perfect for a new player . I decided to download and give DCUO a chance for the first time. I was thinking either Electricity or Celestial. I know I have to be dps early game and that is fine but my goal is to be a healer. My question to you is, as someone who has never played this game and I use a XBox controller to play games. I am wanting to use this toon until end game, not making another toon until I learn the game mechanics and stuff. Which of the 2 powers I mentioned is fun, easy, and be able to hold my own. I don't want to spend hours and hours, then realize I picked something that is to hard to master, lol well use good and have fun. I hope I made sense. Any help or suggestion would be greatly helpful.
Thank you for your kind words. Out of these two, I would suggest you go for Electricity. Celestial has combo system and can get confusing for new player. I just uploaded Electricity healer video. You can check that out. Also, I have previously done Celestial healer, Celestial dps and Electricity Dps videos. Go through them and see what suits you. But my vote would be Electricity 😊 Goodluck. Let me know if you have any other questions.
So two types of dps. Might dps if you are gonna use your superpowers. Precision dps if you are gonna use weapons. Restoration only if you are gonna be in healer (in healer role). Before level 30 you don't have to worry about these things though.
Do they have an lfg type thing for the game? I remember playing it way back but i hated that i had no one to play it with since all of my friends werent into the game lol

Haven't played since 2012. Coming back. It's going to be like a brand new game after not playing so long, and so much has changed. Thx for the video and information. You rock!
My exact thoughts.. this was so helpful.. i was lvl 30 cr70 and coming back I am basically nothing lol.. so happy about the 310 cr boost
Came back after 2017
Same here Jimmy, exactly the same year , just returned yesterday
How was the return? I stopped playing around 2012 as well, but I keep wondering how it's looking these days

Leaving a tip here for new players
Choosing a power:
When Choosing a power you need to decide between 3 options
Do you want to have the potential to
Tank (make sure the enemies don't hit your teamates)
If you choose tank your options are
(free to play) Ice or fire
(All) Ice, fire, rage, earth, atomic
Healer (supplies team with health)
(Free to play) Sorcery or nature
(All) Sorcery, nature, celestial, electricity, water
Controller (supplies power to team)
(Free to play) Mental or gadgets
(All) Mental, gadgets, quantum, Light, munitions
The best of each role is (Controller = Gadgets) (Tank = Rage) (healer = water/electricity)
Every power has a damage role which you can decide whether your might (uses superpowers for more damage) or prec (uses weapons for more damage)
The best might is Gadgets (against a single target) or Rage (best Meele)
The best prec is gadgets (Single target) or Electricity (Multiple targets)
Very cool video, man. I appreciate you taking the time to put it all together for those of us who needed it.
Have seen and almost tried this game several times over the years. Just now finally pulled the trigger and played a bunch today. Got to level 16 or something. This game is so dope!

I stopped playing 5 years ago but it seems like the game has grown to be more f2p friendly from what I've seen. Starting over soon so this will be a helpful refresh.
Ahah, it has not changed at all. A lot of endgame content is still behind a paywall.
@@Jebbles1 well, We can use more cash so thats nice.

Been playing as f2p for many years, and only just now coming back to discover how much more content is available for free players these days, so this video is coming in handy even for those with some small amount of experience.
I haven't played since i was like 12. Im 26 now, thanks, this really is helpful since i just started and reached level 9
Everything is so fresh and so much new content!
Haven't played in almost a decade but always wanted to come back to it cause I really enjoyed the game. Thanks for this.
Very detailed and well-explained video for our new players. Great job! 👌🏼
Thank you my friend. 👊🏼😁
i am returning to the game after literal years of being offline.
As a fan of City Of Heroes I've been passively waiting for the next best thing. I played this game about years ago now and I am thinking of getting back into it. You're explanation was awesome! I am downloading it now. Thanks!!
Hey there, iEddy, I just wanted to thank you for making this video. I haven’t played since 2019 and I’m hoping to get back into DCUO. This video is very helpful and would highly recommend to both, new and returning players. It has everything from the very beginning of the game, up to the very late endgame. And bye the way, I subscribed to you because I’ve been loving your tutorial videos. Have a wonderful and beautiful day. 😊
Welcome back and Thank you for your kind words. 🙏🏼
@@iEddyGaming your welcome
I haven't played since the skill point over haul back in like 2017 or so. I've always wanted to get a style set as well and this video helped point me in the right direction. I've had such a hard time getting up my CR before the episodes went free for all.
I started playing again after 10yrs. I then went through a struggle and discontinued my internet to cut down down on bills, after about a year I got that internet back up. Now I’m at it again. This game is a lot of fun but can be confusing as hell. 10yrs ago I never even beat the game. But now I’m hooked! Still don’t understand the whole thing about quarks & time capsules but it sounds important. I’ve been selling my time capsules man! 😤
Nice returning from 2012 a lot has changed but the game is still immersive as ever. Gr8 content.
Awesome breakdown for us noobies man. Been playing literally only about 2 weeks, and so far I've had a blast. It is definitely a grind. I'm started to see the massive benefit to having a membership. Thanks once again!
~Cheers!
its def a MASSIVE grind but I've been playing about a month so a few weeks longer than you and its been great. Need any help with runs? let me know! I want to have a crew!
@@ParisTheGreat My bad for the late reply my bro!
Yo0o I'm down to link up with you man we can def run some missions and link!
YES I can definitely can use the help, I'd take all the help I can get!
I'm actually a tank and I'm absolutely loving all the technicalities it takes to be a "good" one, because it def takes work with the build once you find one. Haha I was recently invited to a League and they're all cool too, would be could if you'd join haha!
Blessings bro!
Of course the membership helps, the devs greedily designed it that way
Thank you so much for this. I've played before but never got to end game content. Just come back to it to try and understand it again and this video makes it 10x easier. Now, to find people to play w lol
I already know everything in here but I'm just enjoying on how you made this video, made it really interesting and put effort into it, awesome stuff
This is one of the best beginner guides I've seen. Tells you everything you need to know in short and to-the-point snippets of information without bogging the noob ( me ) down with a bunch of technical info or terms I might not know yet. I have a friend who was helping me out with the game and when he was done, I was still confused on everything and you cleared it up in no time.
Just started playing on Switch after feeling nostalgic from playing City of Heroes in like...2008. Really enjoying the first handful of levels so far!
Thanks for the video. An MMO is always so overwhelming at first, so it is much appreciated. I'm planning on mainly playing solo just for fun, but who knows!
Thanks for clarifying the mess. I logged back in after not playing for 7 years and had no idea what to do.
I hope the beginning and tutorial won’t be too hard to beat like it was when I first started playing on Braniac’s ship back in 2014.
I now have the free version on my switch.
I remember playing this back in like 2011 right before my son was born, now hes playing it, Im gonna show him this video. Good lookin out fam.
Hope your son enjoys it. I played this game to death back in the day. Trying to get back into it
Awesome video, 👌 very nicely laid out from start to finish
Thank you my friend. =)
Great vid Eddy
This was so helpful. Im a constantly returning player but I've never really gotten into the game. Came back to CR 63 and forgot how to even play the game. This video helped me a lot.
Great video man!! Appreciate your time and knowledge! Definitely subscribing 😉
Hey man pointer on sharing with other characters as you pointed out already our inventories in our banks and even the shared bank it’s always gonna be full if you need to give something to another character rather than put it in the shared bank just go ahead and send it to the other character in an email and then it won’t be taking up any inventory space until they actually except the item and you can send five items at a time can’t send cash anymore do your own characters but you can still send items
Damn it’s so many things I did not know. I appreciate this vid man.
Think I said this before but good video dude for the new player it does give them all kinds of information that would be very hard to figure out on their own but it also in a way gives them some advanced information they’re not going to understand until they get there
Wow, this helped out a lot. Thank you for recommending it, definitely earned a new subscriber lol can’t wait to watch and learn plenty more.
Awesome! Thank you!
Here in 2023. Thanks broski.
This was a VERY well made video!
Thank you so much!
Yeah I’m back after years and I was so lost 😅but this helped a ton thanks!🙏
Fast easy to understand and awesome at the same time thanks for the help!
just discovered your videos while looking for DCUO stuff, loving your vids dude
Thank you buddy 😊
Great guide overall mate, just a little mistake you forgot to put eletrical as healer power + dps
Thank you. 😊 Yup, already mentioned in pinned comment.
Thank you for posting it...I'm not new, I hope this video will help a lot if new players
playing again thanks to you this game was such nostalgia for me back in the days now all starts again great video btw keep it up
Hero or villain? And what system?
@@tiktokatnight7364 hero on PC US actually looking for players in the future too :D
I love Comics love this game but really confused for years on what to do I only play by myself I would love to play with you so you can show me the right way to do it mostly the weekends when my grandson not here
The for salvaging all that gear you got that you’re not wearing you should ta to make sure whether or not the style has been collected yet if it says not collected even if it’s a worse piece of gear and you’re going to sell it in anyway you should put it on and then swap back to your good piece that way you’ll collect that style if that stuff is important to you
Yeah I had a 255 skip character from a while back and I asked Bentley skipped him to 310 last week and I am now in the process of building a new character almost exactly like that character to go back and do all the content which will also get me a lot of those fees that I miss but there’s the other side of it is when you skip ahead like that completes a whole bunch of contact for you and you can’t go back and do it it’s not listed anymore you can just go back and do it anyway and so you miss a lot of stuff and since I haven’t play the game for years exam logging in that one time and skipping a character I had I wanted to go back right from the start and play through it all the 1 to 30 part and actually Learn the game
I can't wait to watch this. I am so lost on the game.
Ty bro I was a little confused coming back u helped 100
I haven’t played this game in about 4 years, they added so many things that weren’t there before. Might join back, if I can find my old account that is XD.
I've returned to the game after years of not being online. I honestly need to know if a whole lot has changed in the time i've been gone, hence why I came to your video Eddy. I appreciate the video as always. (leaving this comment mid-video)
Hey man! Welcome back. Yup a lot has changed. Take a look at this video, this should answer all your questions. 😊 th-cam.com/video/Faa-_QENBs8/w-d-xo.html
@@iEddyGaming priciate the help!
@@iEddyGaming come to think of it you're my main source of info for the game
I wanna come back now that all episodes are unlocked, really want to start fresh but its been so long.
And I’m bad it amazes me that many MMO‘s don’t have any way to share items between characters except for paid a win type situations where you have to buy shared space for that purpose but DCO has two ways to do it you can mail them to that character or put them in the shared bank space I don’t understand how this isn’t like at the top of the top 5.8 miles it is it is it has so many features that are friendly even while being a free to play game with Peter win aspects it still has so many features that are friendly to the free to play environment or to the entire community really
This video is amazing 👌🏾
Saw your video and made me want to try the game
Great video thx !
Great video dude.
Hey Eddie it occurs to me that your alternate characters might also be a good way to store items you don’t have space for I’m not sure how long email can go unaccepted But it occurs to me that you can mail five items at a time to anyone so if you don’t have space in your shared area to do it you can just mail them to another character on your account and then we were in the mail and tell you need them
Awesome vid 😊
thanks man your videos really help!
This is great! Thanks for the vid
Reallt enjoying this on Nintendo switch oled! Just started playing an I too late? Was looking for mmorpg on switch this seem to be the best current one
Nicest guide ever and detailed like a pro
0:01 How you get the head style he’s wearing?
My brain is about to explode from the amount of info in this video
🤣
Dam you bro. I come back dc because of watching your content👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I am sorry 😁🙏
It's actually good.
Loved it 🥰
which power "Light " based type is a good substitute for free play players that have no access to either two lantern ring light powers, quantum, or atomic? I am asking this because I am creating a hypothetical character that would have been the ultimate beneficiary to ending the crisis war more quickly if he were to exist in the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" Three-Parter special; So is Gadget energy more powerful against the shadow demons than the fire power? Or does Fire count as a light power for the shadow demons to fear?
Honestly Eddie, u already know wat I think
Please elaborate xD xD xD
Because they don't wana lose their precious game... they'll now give you for free what they've been charging ppl who have been playing the game for years... I could go in loool
Ok ok wooo saahh 😂😂😂
What if I don't have a generator and how do I actually access social menu?
Exactly it’s like handing civilian a loaded MP five and telling them to get all go out and use it appropriately do you have in your ear handing a person weigh overpowered character compared to what they are used to I’m expecting him to understand it it’s it’s not a great process for new people want to know the game and you want to create a new alternate that is one thing
Dude....Awesome job!!!!!
Thank you buddy 😊
Hi all, I need help! I’m in the hall of doom and I want the armour set that is next to Two-Face in the Tech Wing, but he isn’t selling it?
Yeah I just want free to play this I mean legendary membership this weekend so that I can get the extra storage space the replay badges and access to all of the superpowers I’m not sure what else and there that I’ll find useful but mostly I wanted all the superpowers
I'm coming back after first playing in 2018 and getting overwhelmed by the amount of vendors in the main hub areas. I just hit 30 on the character I'm playing and wonder what exactly I should be working on next.
I have artifacts but need catalysts to get them past 40 and also as I understand it I'll need better gear to raise my CR. Considering just how many story episodes there are and the number of things to do, I just don't know where to start.
This is on Xbox, villain side if that matters.
This should help th-cam.com/video/Gipq67tfq4s/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for this
That’s where I’m stuck right now is to find how to teleport to the different locations in DC universe . I only have 2 locations central City and the second location skyler basse and I don’t have any more new locations to go to how can I get them ?? And also I’m stuck in instances in the On duty menu I tried to find them how can I find them
Level up to unlock more locations. Click on warp menu, go to house of legends, then go to the tallest structure in the middle, that's your teleporter to everywhere.
For On duty, go to your settings and then key bindings, see the key for on duty menu, as it is different for PS, Xbox, PC etc. Once you are in on-duty menu, pick solos, duos, alert or raid to run stuff. But please note, leveling up will unlock more content, you cannot run high level content if you do not have the required combat rating. Good luck.
I have not played yet but is Hawkgirl or huntress in it?
Good video dude I’m kind of looking around to pick something back up email from long ago and I’m looking to DC you oh and you are alleviated a lot of my concerns it sounds like a lot of the original gating that lead to our required purchases to play the game is gone like the fact that you can play all the Contant for free it used to be able to do that also I remember powering your base was very difficult unless you had a membership because your currency was cabinet like 2000 and it took a lot more than that the power rubbed your base seems like anything you earned over 2000 went into escrow so your purchases couldn’t be more than 2000 at a time
you just gotta make a onetime purchase of 5 or more to get premium permanetly and get unlimited money more inventory the abilty to trade items actually use chat and able to put 5 things on the broker
thnx so much good days
This is guaranteed to be paid to win. You must know that going in if you want to be a DPS if you care about scores and boards you're going to be paying a lot of money. Because 120 artifacts you're not going to cut it you're going to be going against people with 200s and full leakier that make this a job. So if you don't want to spend a lot of money and you're okay with not being on the top the game is good a really good game. But if you're pocket is not full this game will be very frustrating
How is the game not updated for 4k resolutions yet? My UI is tiny with no way to scale it, playing at 1440p is just not the proper solution.
I have several tunes that I keep it lower level intentionally, this tune I’m on now it’s too big to go to Gas metal DC and convert her coin to source Mark. Is there a way to do this anymore since the teleporter system of the watchtower has been abandoned. Thank you bro.
Go to House of Legends, from there take the teleporter to any episode's open area.
Hello, I joined the game in the beggining to play gadgets controller.
Is it a good power today?
In the past I wanted to create a theme Batman character but not many things. Today I see many costumes, are ALL still available? I would like to collect every Batman thing
Hi! Welcome to DCUO! =)
Gadgets is definitely top tier power. But since you are choosing to be a controller, there are few things you should learn beforehand. Here is a complete guide on What Controlling is in DCUO and how it works? The types etc. Take a look =)
th-cam.com/video/pMP1CcNSgcc/w-d-xo.html
As for Batman styles, yes they are all available, some are rare and expensive but you can definitely get them in time. Good luck =)
I just realized I have already answered to your comment on different video haha Sorry I am getting old xD
@@iEddyGaming thank you gentleman, I was about to buy some bundles but it seems we can get them for free if we work hard, right
That's correct. 😊
Can u give a suggestion on the best starter power for a new player paid powers included
Munitions is the easiest and great for beginners and end-game players.
My question is how is everyone getting cool gear to equip us that all from the combat rating missions?
That is correct. So every gear piece you will collect, is also a style. You can go to House of Legends and check all the vendors one by one, most of them had styles which you can buy from source marks. You can also go to vendors for each DLC and check the gear they have to offer. That will also give you styles.
Incase I misunderstood your question and you were asking about gear only, do on-duty missions related to your combay rating and get stronger gear which drops. You will also get source marks from running those missions, which you can use to buy gear from vendors according to your combat rating.
Great vid!!! Should you open boxes that have a min max level like cybernetic Sorceresss SShoulderguards box? Should I wait till im a higher level currently level 20.
Hi Max! Wait till you are Level 30. Open unattuned gear boxes after that and get your combat rating up =)
@@iEddyGaming Thanks so much!
Whats the name of the music at 10:00
Question. Is gear even important? Since everyone just gets scaled to appropriate CR and stats for a run, does Role specific gear matter? Are the only things that matter Artifacts and sp?
Yes. For older content, your CR does get scaled but in end-game content (Last 3 DLC's). You need gear to play and successfully complete. Especially, Elite raids/alerts. Also, if you won't have gear, you won't get your combat rating up, means you won't be able to que for content because its all based on combat rating. =)
First, want to thank you for all your hard work that went into this video. I found your channel yesterday and this beginner guide is perfect for a new player . I decided to download and give DCUO a chance for the first time. I was thinking either Electricity or Celestial. I know I have to be dps early game and that is fine but my goal is to be a healer. My question to you is, as someone who has never played this game and I use a XBox controller to play games. I am wanting to use this toon until end game, not making another toon until I learn the game mechanics and stuff. Which of the 2 powers I mentioned is fun, easy, and be able to hold my own. I don't want to spend hours and hours, then realize I picked something that is to hard to master, lol well use good and have fun. I hope I made sense. Any help or suggestion would be greatly helpful.
Thank you for your kind words.
Out of these two, I would suggest you go for Electricity. Celestial has combo system and can get confusing for new player. I just uploaded Electricity healer video. You can check that out. Also, I have previously done Celestial healer, Celestial dps and Electricity Dps videos. Go through them and see what suits you. But my vote would be Electricity 😊 Goodluck. Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@iEddyGaming while i level to 30, do i worry about might, prec, or restoration
@@iEddyGaming also thank you for getting back to me. I am gonna go with electricity.
So two types of dps. Might dps if you are gonna use your superpowers. Precision dps if you are gonna use weapons. Restoration only if you are gonna be in healer (in healer role). Before level 30 you don't have to worry about these things though.
@@iEddyGaming ok. Thank you
Name of the helmet please where can I get it
Oh wow. So this game basically like elder scrolls online 🤦🏾♂️ no wonder i get so confuse 😅. Coming back
Do they have an lfg type thing for the game? I remember playing it way back but i hated that i had no one to play it with since all of my friends werent into the game lol
@21:11
Which faction and server has better population? I played EU villain side some time ago and the queues were really long..
US PS/PC - Hero side
@@iEddyGaming alright, thank you :) and thanks for your videos
Hey, is CW Supergirl still available?
