Players who want to upgrade their Ghost of Tsushima experience can look no further than Legends, the free co-op mode of Sucker Punch’s stealth-action title. In Legends, players fight as one of four mythical Classes, each possessing unique abilities, and skills. Moreover, the multiplayer mode encourages players to form teams of four to fight wave after wave of supernatural opponents. In turn, players essentially test their mettle and prove their worthiness as some of the best players of Tsushima.
However, experienced players may realize that Legends will pit them against more foes than expected compared to the base game. Moreover, the specialization of each Class means players don’t have access to Jin Sakai’s numerous abilities. In turn, pro players need to be warier of mistakes and mishaps that could plague their Legends playthrough.
10 Going For Difficult Settings
Players who want to reach the peak of their skills in Legends will want to master the game mode with higher difficulty settings. After all, Survival Mode and Nightmare Mode on the Gold difficulty will likely yield the most rewards. However, players might want to consider the technicalities of these game modes to maximize their character’s progression.
For instance, playing the game on Gold – Survival Mode will likely last about an hour, yielding around 1,000 XP and around seven items. In comparison, playing the game on Gold – Regular Mode will yield less than 1,000 XP and only grant around five items – but last around 20-minutes.
In turn, an hour’s worth of Gold – Regular Mode might give players more items to tinker around with. Granted, they may not be at the rarities Survival Mode will provide. However, they’re great for farming resources.
9 Throwing Low-Tier Gear
Thanks to Chi, players know that high-tier gear will set them up for an easier time on Legends‘ Survival and Nightmare Modes. Moreover, while Chi serves as the game’s version of gear score, this also determines the gravity of damage players deal against and receive from opponents. In turn, players should dismantle their low-tier gear to make space for high-tier ones, right?
Interestingly, this factor isn’t necessarily the case. Players at a higher level who upgrade their low-tier gear will actually have the upgraded gear “jump” towards their current level score. In turn, players might actually get higher-tier gear from these otherwise-useless items. Granted, due to the rarity of upgrade resources, players need to do this strategy with care.
8 Waiting For The Enemy
Given how Legends introduces players to a stealth-action tower defense mode, players will likely want to be near defense points when defending them. Unfortunately, this strategy leaves players open to become surrounded and limit movement, especially in difficult duels. Moreover, players who decide to retreat from this position will likely cost them the defense point.
Instead, players should take the fight to their enemies. Most spawn points take the form of tight spaces such as gates and doors near narrow passageways. If players time it correctly, they can set up Sticky Bombs and other incendiary attacks to tear through enemies the moment they spawn. This gives players a better vantage point to secure their defense and still get the room to retreat without the risk of losing their defense points.
7 Going For The Main Road
Thanks to the fireworks, players can simply Ping (R3) the spawn point and prepare for the upcoming wave of enemies. Moreover, more experienced players will wait for enemies in the spawn points themselves to tear through them faster. However, pro players will try to secure the best vantage points nearest the spawn area.
Remember, a map’s spawn points are in the same places but are activated in random order. Moreover, thanks to their grappling hook and parkour, players can traverse various vertical spaces to reach these spawn points faster. Players can crawl upwards on slopes, swing on ropes around courtyards, and even leap across rooftops to get to spawn areas. As such, the Hunter’s ranged specialization and the Assassin’s stealth attacks can benefit greatly when done from these vantage points.
6 Ignoring Stances On Katanas
Players of Legends might soon realize that they no longer have inherent access to Jin Sakai’s traditional Stances. Instead, their Katana of choice may grant them access to at least one Stance with special combos. Despite this caveat, players need to realize that enemy types still matter in Legends – meaning, certain Stances work best against them.
In the first stages of the game mode, players might want to use Water Stance and Stone Stance Katanas, as shieldmen and swordsmen are prominent enemies there and they’re weak to these respective Stances.
5 Being Dependent On Healing
Players in a pinch can come across various healing items that can recover Health and bring them back in shape. For instance, the Healing Drum can heal players around it once activated. Moreover, obtaining additional idols can give a bit of healing as well as useful items. Lastly, certain Gifts can trigger healing for the party. However, players who depend too much on these healing items can be too reckless and cost the match.
For instance, aside from the rarity of healing idols, the Healing Drum and healing Gifts have a cooldown prior to activation. Moreover, Gifts costs Magatama – a currency that can be used on other offensive and utility Gifts. When using the Healing Drum, players need to make sure all party members can have some use of it. Moreover, it’s advisable for all party members to have items like Healing Gourd or a Healing Charm to avoid being too dependent on healing items.
4 Simply Dodging The Arrow Barrage
In Legends‘ Survival Mode, players need to watch out for two things: stronger enemies, and that constant barrage of arrows. At first glance, the raining arrows become a nuisance that players need to constantly dodge. After all, getting hit by these arrows chip off valuable Health. However, players who dodge these barrages are in for a blessing – as enemies left in the indicator circle will get the brunt of the arrow damage!
Theoretically, this arrow barrage provides a decent opportunity for players to dish out extra AOE without wasting resources. Moreover, given how enemies tend to be stronger in Survival Mode, a couple of them will almost always try to surround players – leaving them open for the barrage.
3 Taking Ultimates For Granted
Fans of Dark Souls know that even attack animations contribute to successful skirmishes. In Legends, much can be said with each Class’s Ultimate abilities. Players of Legends should remember that most Class Ultimates usually have an AOE advantage, especially the Assassin’s Shadow Strike and the Samurai’s Hachiman’s Fury.
However, players should also take note that they can’t be killed while they perform their Ultimate. In essence, players in a pinch can dish out their Ultimate to kill enemies on the way to a more advantageous position.
2 Giving Up On Defense Points
A defense point that looks overrun will likely be lost, right? Unless the game’s UI says so, much isn’t the case. Remember, players have a shared health bar depending on the defense points they have. Meaning, it’s game over for them the fewer defense points they can protect. Ideally, players should try to secure as many defense points as possible to earn the most points. However, players can also capitalize on their losses if in a pinch.
For instance, the fewer points players have, the more they dictate the flow of battle. This caveat will bring enemies to their current position, meaning certain players can fend off opponents while others prepare for the boss wave that, if won, can recapture lost points.
1 Carelessly Using Gift Shrines
Teams who accomplish more objectives earn more Magatama – the currency needed to trigger Gift Shrines. Interestingly, Gift Shrines offer different bonuses – healing, summoning a spirit bear, or even igniting enemies, to name a few. However, each Gift Shrine can only be purchased by one player, with a respective cooldown before being usable once more.
This caveat means players need to take note of just which Gifts they activate per round. If possible, the healing gift should only be activated during boss waves in order to maximize its advantages.
