Guide Tips

There is no way for free player to raise their CR more than 89 if they don’t have at least one of the next DLC Packs: Origin Crisis, Sons of Trigon, and War of the Light: Part 1
Queue on Challenge, Duos, Alerts, and Raids to start earning Marks of Victory and getting some equipment with Item Level 86+
Alerts and Raids can be harder to do with queue, so you might need to join a helpful League or make your own group to queue together.
Don’t forget to do available Daily missions and Weekly missions to earn additional Marks of Victory.
We recommend players to only by TIER 5.75 with Combat Rating 90. Every T5 set costs the same Marks of Victory, so it is not worth it to get others set but the strongest.
All content have DLC requirements, so players should buy the require DLC to access its content.
Once you get the desire 100 Combat Rating, check our Combat Rating: CR 100 to CR 116 guide

adrianomehicano August 17, 2015 at 8:35 pm

which one is best to buy? dlc war of the light 1 or sons of trigon or origin of crisis.
i am now 84 cr. i cant buy all of them i just need one.

  Hello Adrianomehicano, War of the Light 1 will let you raise your combat rating until CR 100 but you will need to reach CR 85 to enter Mogo/Ranx Command center. If you buy Sons of Trigon you will only reach CR 98 which is not enough to leave T5 behind. However, Sons of Trigon is the episode with most content in T5.
Cold Hurts July 29, 2015 at 1:38 am

I’ve been stuck at CR 98 for a week. I’ve been doing all my duos and alerts,but my raids never ready up. Any extra tips you could give me. I have all T5 content.
HELP PLEAZE ;(

  Hello Cold Hurts, you should try to make your own group to enter raids. In fact, most players create their own group instead of queue in journal to enter Raids. Check our combat rating and plan your way up to cr 100. Maybe you have a low cr Neck or Trinket that is keeping you down http://dcuobloguide.com/tools/combat-rating-calculator/
Sqweegel June 29, 2015 at 8:05 am

Hello I’m stuck on cr 97 doing all t5 stuff over and over seem to be getting cr 83-86 loot which is what k already have. Mods no longer affect cr so what would you advise.

1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorJune 29, 2015 at 11:51 am
  
  Hello Sqweegel, thanks for your question. Check our Combat Rating Calculator to know more about available content to your CR http://dcuobloguide.com/tools/combat-rating-calculator/
  At that Combat Rating you have 2 challenges, 3 duos, 5 alerts, 3 raids, and 4 Daily missions. I recommend you to do Sons of Trigon Daily missions so you can access special mission that gives you CR 85 Item Level. Go to http://dcuobloguide.com/zones/pve-tier-5b-vendor/ in Command Center to buy CR 90 directly from lantern vendors
free player June 26, 2015 at 2:56 pm

why free players cant are welcome on dcuo ? really very unbalanced and limited game really comparated with another mmo’s dcuo is a boring trial

  Thanks for sharing your thoughts Free. DCUO allows players to enjoy content until CR 70 and PVP after that players should buy DLC Packs to continue raising their combat rating
iamT June 12, 2015 at 12:35 am

What PVE CR is the equivalent of PVP 100 CR? Any help or insight will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Reply ↓
1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorJune 12, 2015 at 10:01 am
  
  Hello iamT, PVE Cr and PVP Cr are two different things that cant be compared. You need to raise your PVE Cr to unlock PVE Content. On the other hand, raising your combat rating wont make any difference in PVP Arenas or PVP Legends because all stats (including level 10 to level 29) are balanced.
  PVP CR is only need for players that want to get PVP Armor Style
Marquise M May 24, 2015 at 8:09 am

For some strange reason I lost all my marks of triumph and when I start any raid or duty it no longer rewards me with marks of triumph but instead marks of victory. I originally assumed I lost my marks of triumph because I didn’t update my Legendary account. After updating my account recently my marks of triumph still haven’t returned. Please if any one can shed some light on what happened and what I should do? It would be deeply appreciated.

1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorMay 25, 2015 at 11:38 am
  
  Hello Marquise M, thanks for your question with GU47 all Marks of Triumph was converted to Marks of Victory and all instances give only Marks OF Victory because it is now the universal currency of PVE. However, low content or irrelevant content to your CR wont give you any Marks of Victory so in your journal page you must check the relevance of the content before going in. For example if you are CR 100 you wont receive any marks from T1, T2, T3, and some t4 content.
Citanos May 22, 2015 at 4:47 pm

Hey, coudl you help me?
I was doing some CR calculations and I found that if I have a full T4 set that I can buy in the magic wing, my CR should be 88. But you said that I can’t go over 84, so how that works? Does the game prevent me from buying more gear or something once I reach 84? Or it will cut my stats so I stick with 84?

Reply ↓
1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorMay 22, 2015 at 5:08 pm
  
  Hello Citanos, we are still finding a way to update all our Combat Rating Guides because with GU47 the COMBAT RATING is calculated in a different way.
  You will be able to reach CR 88, the game wont prevent you for reaching more CR but if you dont have access to other Episodes you wont be able to buy higher equipment and your CR will stay the same until you get a new episode with relevant Content.

  Hello Mario, you should probably get the highest equipment available for you and MOD it with the highest Equipment MODS (Synthetic or Normal mods)

I just want to ask.. In the Mogo command center I don’t see any CR 90… I just see CR 97 and that not for MoT… Plz help

1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorApril 29, 2015 at 11:12 am
  
  Hello Usman, for you to access Equipment CR 90 you must have War of the Light:Part 1. It is below TIER 97 set and MODS VI
Deeno April 24, 2015 at 11:53 pm

Just thought I’d mention at the bottom of this guide it says “after you get the desired 53 cr” haha otherwise very helpful. Are the trigon daily missions random? Or how do they work?

Reply ↓
1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorApril 27, 2015 at 9:13 am
  
  Hello Deeno, thanks for letting us know that misspelled. Daily you will get 3 trigon missions according to each missions pack (Wrath Missions, Lust Missions, or Envy Missions). From each pack of missions you will get 1 random and after completing 5 of the same mission pack youll get special mission to visit a particula DUO and defeat subboss.
The Wannabe Newbie April 13, 2015 at 1:24 am

Great guide but can u help me out? Im stuck at cr 99 and at least 4-5 pieces are item level 90 with V synthetic mods here is where I get upset
The rest of my gear consist of item level 89,87,86,85,84 with v mods except for my utility belt witch is still item level 68 so is the belt holding me back? I have done all my t4 and t5 instances and have no replay badges left is there anything I can do?

1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorApril 13, 2015 at 11:35 am
  
  Hello The Wannabe, can you please tell us your character’s name and server to check it in the Census app and tell what you need to do to get 100 For what i see you need another utility belt or a trinket (system gets the higher CR from them to use it in CR Calculation) higher than 80 to increase your combat rating.
2. The Wannabe Newbie April 13, 2015 at 12:50 pm
  
  My character’s name is PvtAmaru i play on PS3 USA I guess I’ve tried replaying bia and and no drops came
3. DCUO Bloguide Post authorApril 19, 2015 at 3:06 pm
  
  Hello The Wannabe, for what we saw i suggest you change your Hands and your Head with a higher CR item. If you do it you will be able to reach CR 100 with mods. Prioritize the head and mod it
ObsidianSoul April 10, 2015 at 9:15 pm

You can now buy mods from the t4-t5 vendors, I was stuck on 97-99 CR for awhile, farming exobytes until I stumbled across these mods, they cost about 625 Marks of Victory and around $1200 cash, and give good stats “Vit +16” since I’m troll Might +27, took me from 97 too 102 in no time.

Will I able to get my Combat Rating to 100 with just the Sons of Trigon dlc?

Reply ↓
1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorMarch 2, 2015 at 3:27 pm
  
  Hello Person, for what we calculate in Combat rating calculator, for reaching 100 with Sons of Trigon you will need to buy all TIER CR 86 + WEAPON CR 85 (dropped in Trigon’s Prison) + fully equipped with VI Expert MODS (this is the hardest thing because you need for some friend to craft the mod for you).
Lee February 24, 2015 at 4:41 am

If the highest tier has the CR of 90, how can one get to CR 100? If the answer is with equipment mods, can I get to CR 100 being premium? As premium, I can only use Equipment mods I due to the cash limit of $2000. Plz answer, thx.

1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorFebruary 24, 2015 at 9:15 pm
  
  Of course you can get cr 100 With equipment mods. However, you will need for some legendaries friends to buy you equipment interface for you to make your mods, or you can tell your friends to make these mods
2. Lee February 26, 2015 at 11:10 am
  
  What I used synthetic mods instead? Will that work?
3. DCUO Bloguide Post authorFebruary 26, 2015 at 11:14 am
  
  Of course Lee, if you use Synthetic MODS sold by PVE Vendors. It will increase your combat rating as if you were using NORMAL MODS.

Thanks to your guide I’m doing terrible… I just kidding my CR is 94 because of your help. Anyways could you explain how I could get my health high, my DPS is fine I just die too quickly. Should I start using health mods… Would it bring down my precision/might? I need help.

Reply ↓
1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorJanuary 2, 2015 at 12:41 pm
  
  Hello Taylor, it is normal that you die fast because you doesnt have enough defense in your equipment to hold on enemies’ attacks. Focus on precision because you are rage and if you want to survive a little longer you should master avoiding RageCrash
  I recommend you to start doing feats because you only have 45 skill points and it is recommended that your skill points always be higher than your combat rating. Check feat guides here http://dcuobloguide.com/feats/

  Hello Yosef, all DLC Packs until the 9th use Marks of Triumph as main currency which means all T5 equipment can be bought with Marks of Triumph.

Where is the 5.75 gear located? I went to the command center and theres only cr97 gear.

1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorNovember 16, 2014 at 11:04 am
  
  Hello Notnicecream. In the command center is a lantern that sells you the 90 combat rating armor. If you are Hero you can get the Scion of Ion 90 CR set or if you are villain you can get Disciple of Parallax 90 CR set. Maybe with the new DLC some things have change and if the same vendor sell 5.75 and 6.75 gear maybe you should look at the bottom of the list

Alekimsior August 26, 2014 at 4:04 pm

Can you really get a Controller Trinket for just purchasing Halls of Power? What CR is it? Do you also get the trinket if you’re Legendary?
Also, any idea what is the item drop rate? Currently CR 87, and all the gear I get , from raids, aren’t even for my role, so my stats are terrible. Makes me wish more items were simply Account Locked, rather than exlusively dumpable.

Reply ↓
1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorAugust 29, 2014 at 11:22 am
  
  Hello Alekimsior, Epic Trinkets are very very very rare to be dropped more if you are premium because legendaries can use replay badges to unlock raids loot everytime they want so they have more probabilities to have them dropped. These items can also be dropped from Promethium Boxes which are also available for Legendary.
  Dont worry about your gear now just try to raise your CR over 100 where you will be able to choose what role do you want the item to become. You will just need luck to get the item dropped and then choose if you want to be DPS or for your alternate ROLE
Bradley Paterson August 17, 2014 at 4:48 am

I saw in your Tier 5.75 section with the additional items what looks like a Utility Belt for 18,750 Marks of Triumph, where is this purchasable?
Currently when I play DCUO I’m a premium user and don’t have access to Tier 6 as I want to clear a backlog of feats before adventuring into Amazon Fury and Halls of Power.
Can you please advise in relation to the utility belt as I will need to start spec in the alternate role also.

  Hello Bradley, we are sorry to tell you that there is no Utility Belt for T5. 18750 Marks of Triumph is the cost for T5 Trinkets and we used that image to relate trinkets with it
2. Bradley Paterson August 18, 2014 at 10:21 pm
  
  In that case where can I locate the best utility belts for DPS and Controller?
  I have tried websites like DCUO-db however they only have up to lvl 87 however these drop Family Reunion and Brother in Arms.
  Would these be the best belts to go after?

3. DCUO Bloguide Post authorAugust 19, 2014 at 11:17 am
  
  You can find utility Belts in BIA, FR, and Paradox. However, if you have enough CR i advice you to go ahead. With Halls of Power, you can get a great Utility Belt by just buying it
Jon July 31, 2014 at 7:43 am

I am getting a 2nd character and my buddy through t5 on the way to t6 now. that being said i cannot seem to recal when the Monthly reward resets. we dont want to waste replay badges when we are so close to the beginning of the month and i was hoping you might be able to refresh my memory as to when the monthly rewards resets obviously weekly is every thursday but what about monthly?

Reply ↓
1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorJuly 31, 2014 at 11:06 am
  
  Hello Jon, i have been able to test it and i think it resets exactly 4 weeks after you make the instance. For example, if you did the instance at July 4, your monthly reward will be resetted at July 31 (exactly 4 weeks reset). I really believe this is how the reset works but i am not 100% sure of it
2. Jon July 31, 2014 at 3:17 pm
  
  so if i reset the raid with reply badges then would it be based off of when i was last locked out or the first time i was locked out on a 4 week basis???
3. DCUO Bloguide Post authorAugust 2, 2014 at 1:04 pm
  
  I certainly dont know how the montly reset works with replay badges. I havent use badges for resetting instance

1. DCUO Bloguide Post authorJuly 18, 2014 at 5:00 pm
  
  Hello Nimz, it is easier to do feats when you are high CR. I personally reach CR 100 to start doing heavy feats like Fast runs, alerts, and raids feats. If you dont have more quests to do then start doing easy feats: Races, Collectibles, Solo, Exploration.
