Plan your next Secret World Legends session
Our independent guide breaks down the five core pillars of Secret World Legends—combat, investigation, exploration, customization, and multiplayer—so players can understand each system and make informed choices while navigating the free, story‑rich world.
01 / THE GUIDE
Weapon Variety
Play three separate missions, each using a different weapon type. Record how the weapon interacts with your chosen powers and note any adjustments needed for optimal performance.
- Swap weapons between missions to discover which types handle different enemy behaviors best.
- Combine a power with a weapon that complements its range or damage type for smoother fights.
02 / THE GUIDE
Focused Investigation
Attempt an Investigation Mission while limiting yourself to a single ability. Observe how reliance on clues changes your approach and improves problem‑solving efficiency.
- Pause to examine the environment for hidden clues before initiating combat.
- Use abilities that reveal information to speed up the investigative portion.
03 / THE GUIDE
Region Comparison
Visit two distinct locations, such as Transylvania and Egypt, and compare enemy designs and environmental hazards to understand how each area influences combat tactics.
- Visit each region to encounter its unique enemy types and lore fragments.
- Take note of environmental cues that may hint at hidden threats.
04 / THE GUIDE
Build Balance
Create two characters: one emphasizing offensive gear, the other defensive augmentations. Run the same mission with each to see how gear focus impacts survivability and damage output.
- Mix gear sets to balance defensive stats with offensive potential.
- Periodically review augmentations to ensure they align with current challenges.
05 / THE GUIDE
Co‑op Coordination
Form a small co‑op group and assign each member a complementary role—damage, support, or control. Evaluate how coordinated abilities affect mission completion speed.
- Coordinate with teammates to cover different enemy roles during co‑op missions.
- Experiment with PvP to gauge the effectiveness of your current build.
