On the main screen -> tap on the story icon -> choose “select story” or “newest chapter”; to repeat choose “select story”, to play new chapter, choose “newest chapter”. Here are some tips to play story mode like a pro!

Before you start the chapter, go to the challenges tab and check out the challenges; complete these challenges in the first turn to get free rewards such as crystal, Zeni, souls, and much more.

To edit the party, go to menu ->characters -> edit -> select the characters. You can select up to six characters. And you can create seven parties with different character combinations. Before the battle starts, you can select any one of these seven parties.

Dragon Ball Legends Guide To Characters⇓

Dragon Ball Legends game features dozens of characters. You can check the complete list in the menu -> characters -> character list.

Elements of characters: –

• Support
• Defense
• Melee
• Ranged

Tap on a character to check its battle style. For instance; Krillin is a defense type character, Shallot is of melee type, Goku(extreme); melee, Super Saiyan Goku; ranged type, Tao; support type.

You can take advantage of choosing the characters on the basis of elements; here’s how: –

• Red element > Yellow element
• Yellow > Purple
• Purple > Green
• Green > Blue

For instance; check the enemy character’s element; if it’s red, then choose blue element character. If it’s yellow, then choose red element character. Go to characters section -> hold down on a character and check its element.

Unlocking New Characters In DB Legends⇓

It’s very simple. Go to menu -> summon -> choose “single summon” or “consecutive summon”. Get the character shards. A consecutive summon is best; you will definitely get an extreme or sparking character[initially].

Dragon Ball Legends Guide To Limit Break⇓

You can add stars to your characters using limit-break. All you need to do is gain enough Z power. For instance; I have Goku(hero). Now, to limit-break Goku or add a star to Goku, I need Z power(Goku). How to get it? Use the summon feature. Why is limit-break important? Because it increases the power cap of your character.

DB Legends Friendship Level Guide⇓

You can earn friendship points by playing the game; just select those characters. You can teach Shallot “Special Move” or get an item reward by getting friendship points.

DB Legends Souls Guide⇓

There are many types of souls; red, blue, yellow, super souls, and more. You use these souls to increase the stats of your characters. For instance, I want to increase the “defense” stats of my character “Super Saiyan Goku”. And for this, I need souls.
