Legion Guide

April 14, 2018

Important update: Flames are being added to GMS in the summer. You'll be able to buy them in the legion coin shop!
Subject to change but in kms it works like this:
Strong Rebirth Flame (100 coins) [limit of 3] [Untradable]

These are the second best flames in the game and unless I am mistaken are the same ones crafted by master craftsman rank accessory.

How to start legion:

You must have at least 500 total levels from the sum of characters on the same world of at least level 60. There will be a quest to unlock the first level of legion.

Why you should care about legion:

• each unique job you add to the legion provides a benefit to all characters
• depending on how you arrange the characters in your legion you will gain additional benefits
  
• allow you to purchase items in the legion shop

You can see some of the stats from my legion in game here:




The Grid

The legion contains a grid system that allows you to "place" your characters on a grid gaining stats in two ways: stats specific to each unique job and stats based on how you fill up the grid. In this section both will be explained starting with the job specific stat/benefit. In game in the legion system the stats are split into "member bonuses" and "grid bonuses." This guide will call them "Legion effects" and "Grid stats."

You can access the legion grid from the menu after unlocking it through a quest.



Legion Effects

Depending on the level of your character it will be assigned a rank from B to SSS. Zero character ranks are based on their story quest completion and level. Characters below level 60 are excluded from legion.

The outer regions can NOT be rearranged.

Building your grid

When assigning members to your grid you MUST start in one of the centre four blocks. The icon of the grid piece you place must be in one of the four middle squares.

Examples below:





After assigning the first block to the grid you can assign future pieces as long as they touch any other piece. They cannot connect diagonally. Example below connecting a pirate piece to the starting piece. The piece in red is not in an acceptable position because it does not touch another piece.



The shape of a character placed into the grid is based on the job type (archer/thief/etc) and rank. The table below was taken from orangemushroom and shows the various shapes.



Number of members you can assign to grid is based on your legion level.

Rank Name	Total Account Level	Grid Members
Nameless Legion 1	500	9
Nameless Legion 2	1000	10
Nameless Legion 3	1500	11
Nameless Legion 4	2000	12
Nameless Legion 5	2500	13
Renowned Legion 1	3000	18
Renowned Legion 2	3500	19
Renowned Legion 3	4000	20
Renowned Legion 4	4500	21
Renowned Legion 5	5000	22
Heroic Legion 1	5500	27
Heroic Legion 2	6000	28
Heroic Legion 3	6500	29
Heroic Legion 4	7000	30
Heroic Legion 5	7500	31
Legendary Legion 1	8000	36
Legendary Legion 2	8500	37
Legendary Legion 3	9000	38
Legendary Legion 4	9500	39
Legendary Legion 5	10000	40

Recommendations

In this section I will suggest which characters may be most important to level for you to get the most out of your legion. If you manage to reach level 200 on 40 characters you can place 36 characters and you won't need to worry too much about which characters are best as you'll be able to use almost all of them.

Leveling​

• Zero for exp increase

Bossing

• DA for boss damage
  
• Kanna for boss damage
  
• Blaster for def ignore
  
• Beast Tamer for def ignore

General Utility

• Mercedes for cooldown reduction
• Mechanic for buff duration
• Night Lord for critical chance
• Marksman for critical chance
  
• Corsair for summoned minion duration
• Phantom for increases mesos obtained (especially for reboot)
  
• Aran for heal
  
• Evan for mp restore
• Fire/Poison for MP %

Leveling AND bossing

• Wild hunter for chance to deal extra damage
• Shade for critical damage
• Hayato for critical damage
• Jett for critical damage

I would recommend getting anything useful for you from the above sections and then fill your remaining slots with legion effects that increase your main stat. For example: as a paladin you would want all of the STR boosts, as a DA you'd want the HP and HP% boosts, etc. After that you can fill with the off-stat boosts such as DEX for warriors, LUK for mages, etc. Fill remaining slots with anything you want to get the grid bonus.

Legion Coins Shop

When you assign characters to your legion they immediately begin attacking a dragon in the legion raid. Your characters attack 24/7 and even if you are logged out. The damage done by your characters' attacks is based on level and starforce. The character's actual range means nothing in legion.

You can also enter the legion raid yourself through the large "START RAID" button. You will need to enter the raid if you wish to do the two dailies for an additional 30 coins per day. You will be able to deal some damage to the enemy boss if you wish. You can attack it until the yellow bar runs out and all attacks will miss after that. Your legion characters' 24/7 attacks will finish the purple bar.

The coins are handed out when you leave the legion raid and are used for legion rank upgrades ex. nameless legion 1 to nameless legion 2. Coins are also usable in the legion shop for items such as epic potential scrolls and 2x exp buffs.

You'll want to look for these two NPCs for your legion shop or to pick up and turn in the dailies:

• and more?

Feel free to send me suggestions I'd be a big fan of that.
