Getting Max Legend Level

[Dankaholic69]

I see lots of people at level 250 and I want to ask how? I'm level 109 and it's so ****ing slow. Anyone got any tips?

Most people just gave up and cheated. True legends however, never cheat and reach 250 legitimately with hard work.

It's up to you.

Wow thanks for the guide I'm definitely gonna use it. But you can't blame people for cheating, Techland made it too grindy. Without using your guide or cheating it would probably have taken me like another 300ish hours to get max. That doesn't make much sense because the game isn't too interesting after you beat it.

That's one way to explain it and I understand it.

I personally see it as another way. For me Legend skill-tree isn't something I must definitely reach before I move into other game or something. A lot of people feel that way, which I believe what Techland didn't intend.

Legend tree isn't something you should be focused, instead, you should be focused on gameplay and other elements like Co-Op, Be The Zombie, doing random things and etc.

In addition, at rank 150, you can already have all the best skills.

Legend tree is something you should see as an extra motivation to keep on playing, one shouldn't be playing Dying Light solely just for Legend tree.

I don't know how to explain better, my English word collection isn't that wide but you should get the idea.

I've personally stopped farming after around rank 120-140, reached 185 today, making around 2 or 3 ranks per day from invasions on Nightmare difficulty. It's fun.

But that is all my personal opinion, so nobody has to listen to me.

Hope you'll find the guide useful and enjoy!

Personally I'd much rather have something like max legend level, which isn't necessary for any actual feats within the game, be difficult to reach. If it weren't, Kyle Crane wouldn't be much of a legend, would he?

I agree with BladeMaster completely - but I realize some people are OCD completionists, so...

I guess there are some people you just can't help :p

I too will add my 2 cents. I'm of a similar mindset as BladeMaster. Those added legend skills are quite beneficial with increased difficulties. I'll stop considering increasing my legend level when I have all that I will actually use.

I'm doing a second full run on hard and plan a third on Nightmare ( and I'll want them then ). After that point...they're not really relevant to me. I do like your recognition of the OCD player personality though ~ all too true.

not that you can really cheat by duping now(patched) but dont find a way.. it does take a long time but it keeps you interested in the game.. to know you earned a maxed out character is a good feeling..it took me a little over 600 hrs to achieve legend level 250 and it was worth it.. i probably would have gotten there sooner but what can i say.. i die alot lol

I am over 200 at the moment, for me it would be a sense of achievement.


EDIT: You people who are legend 250, what do you do with your drops?

I have set myself a goal to reach Legend rank 151 because at that point you can have 6 mastery skills maxed, which most likely will be 4 related to weapons and 2 optional (I maxed extra health & extra healing, some people prefer to max regeneration, at which point you select something else than max health as it would be useless most of the time).

Grinding to rank 100 is fast and easy, just do Stuffed Turtle on Normal and turn in packages on Nightmare every once in a while. Getting from 101 to 151 was increasingly slower as more and more experience is needed. Stuffed Turtle is probably still the best way to do it legitimately but it will become chore.
I'm still doing Stuffed Turtle zone but I always open those 2 GRE chests and kill all the zombies behind easy-locked doors. I just do not want to just run around in circles because that would be mindnumbingly boring, admittedly this slows my grind because I get less packages per hour but I do not care.

I find Legend tree great addition to the game that gives you motivation to play even after getting all your skill trees maxed. It is design to be a "never-ending" grind unless you do something extreme (such as farming Stuffed Turtle hours on no end). However, Legend tree also solves problem of grinding games where at some point you stop growing in power and your motivation drops very rapidly from there onward. Legend ranks are here to give you minor but regular improvements to your already powerful character, which is great. I do not see Legend ranks as a must have to be at lvl250.

I think I can count the tiles in there, plus my pet rat died in there.

You could try and farm the underground parking too + bonus from killing volatiles at night :D

I do the same as well as hitting Bright Mountain Tunnel, Chemical Storage and the apartments. As well as hitting hard boxes and Police vans. You can get quite a bit of XP from this.

My advice is to not let your points get to high in between levels.
I always get to around 1/2 way then I turn in DROPS to finish off level.

Was on a good fight with several Viral's outside of Chemical Storage, no biggie but, a Bomber snuck in and killed me BOOM 2,400,000 points lost and he was smiling as he blew me up.
