DCUO : 2018 Complete In Depth Augments Guide / Walkthrough

[@Psycorde]

Returned yesterday after years of not playing... Made my head spin. But I like the changes, generally. It's just that monetization behind all this is a bit too much. My first ever MMORPG, the memories...

[@bokyongso]

Where do you get Adaptive Augments? I only have Origin Augments.

[@leonardocaicedo1273]

Sorry for super late comment but they are from the event vendors starting from teen titans DLC

[@besttrick2]

Been gone for a year. What the hell happened to DC ??? Lol

[@Spiritbomb88]

It's much better now. Trust me. Might take a week to getting used to but the game is much more organized now

[@demondoguk]

I've been gone for years and all I hear is augments... yet still don't have a clue lol

[@6eostorm]

Try being gone 5 years 🤯

[@TrueScripture]

Recently came back after over 3yrs and I'm enjoying the augment and artifact system

[@VagrantVideos]

I forgot I even had this video still up on the channel since I quit 6-7 months ago lol

[@TrueScripture]

@@VagrantVideos yea I've been gone a while, just came back and seen the new additions, I'm actually enjoying it

[@artificialintelligence0101]

Been gone since 2013 but I'm back and had this vid saved for the dreaded day I had to relearn DCUO lol. Thanks for these vids!

[@ElizabethDermody]

Thanks :) I've been off DC for a long time. Ever since they stopped PS3 and I'm starting tomorrow. This helps. :)

[@VagrantVideos]

Glad that it does!

[@Purgosmusic]

Same.

[@NoseBleedSanjiTV]

Play with me

[@demonocusmetalocus3558]

Left in 2016 came back a few days ago and am relearning the game that is very different now,seems like a lot of things are better and the cash grabs seem more geared to players with no patience who want to rush everything. I feel like if you are not in a hurry you can get by with just a subscription but i need more time to really know for sure. This video was very helpful.

[@VagrantVideos]

Just be very weary man, the game is still loads of fun but don’t give in to the lure of paying for progression. Unfortunately you WILL feel the difference between someone who has max augments, artifacts, gear, skill points, and episode augments though

[@Psycorde]

Game needs its own inventory for crafting and leveling resources, it's insane how much they clog up the inventory. Like currency tab, but for this stuff.

[@youngreckless97]

White Void I’m about to get back into it. I used to play for like 3-4 years in a row basically everyday.

[@summy8585]

They want you to buy extra slots. The game is very playable as is, but to get the most out of it they have created very clever monetary barriers

[@PadSolo]

i searched for this and dindnt find this and now it just got recommended...

[@VagrantVideos]

Wait what?

[@krayotics8610]

Bro same 😭😭

[@6eostorm]

This is a great guide thanks for posting this! I took a year break from DCUO which turned into close to 5 years! I came back 2 weeks ago I was so lost I was ready to quit again 🤦🏽‍♂️ But thanks to this I don’t feel so lost anymore 😴

[@VagrantVideos]

You are lucky its still up! Especially since I don’t do DCUO content anymore! Glad I could help lol

[@natislavin7271]

great video mate, i'm a returning player and this tutorial really help me wrap my mind around the new augments system so again thank you :)

[@C2player]

Wow, I'm so far behind. ...haven't played DCUO since over a year ago! I have a lot to catch up on. :(

[@VagrantVideos]

That’s usually part of the fun in my opinion, so much to experience when coming back

[@VagrantVideos]

I’ll probably play on my switch

[@J-Casper-S]

C2 want to play I'm coming back

[@HappyTheOrdinaryCat]

Seraphi Grimaldi ur garbage LMFAO that's why you don't like it

[@rupty6573]

Haven't played this game for some years and I liked the old exobytes much more. It was much easier, this is just complicated

[@MurderousJohnny]

Rupty it the same thing, just seems overwhelming because of ui.

[@namikkomik6915]

hello, does origin boost only give games or sell npc as well?

[@itsyaboymayo3160]

Great presentation my dude 👏🏻

[@VagrantVideos]

I honestly forgot this was still on my channel 😅

[@KujiKatsumi]

I actually like this guide, Made me rethink just dumping anything into leveling these augments.

[@VagrantVideos]

For sure spread out those levels.

[@VagrantVideos]

thnx dude

[@libragirl8078]

Do you have any updates to this video since I don’t see runes as an option anymore

[@VagrantVideos]

Nope, haven't even played DCUO is years.

[@bruceMooseman]

Did u base your into and music on flashback? Subbed!! Amazing 👌

[@VagrantVideos]

Flashback? Don’t remember ool

[@bruceMooseman]

@@VagrantVideos honestly it's exactly like the soundtrack for flashback, even the writing is a bit and some noises. It's not a bad thing! One of my favourite games of all time should be in the top games of all time list in my opinion! Well if your old like me lol

[@bruceMooseman]

@@VagrantVideos I'll be honest I'm torn with dcuo :-/ I'm a bigginer and think it's pretty cool, but from what I see you have to get the subscription for the game to be worthwhile..and I really don't want to invest 15 quid a month right now!

[@Daj2009]

By any chance does anybody knows the max level for The Teen Titans Origin Augments? As I am trying to max them out but its going so slow, Thank you in advance.

[@ing4gi]

Finally a good guide

[@VagrantVideos]

Glad I could help!

[@tbear1985th]

What about R&D Components? I have stuff that i collected and I have no idea if they can be used for anything.

[@lucidaaron5018]

Yeah that's what I'm saying! Guess r and d components are part.of the old system??

[@gabriraph]

it will be even harder to switch from a healet to a controller power. Because neither of the roles use each other's augments.

[@gabriraph]

I dont invest on vital augments as i am a healer, and if i decide to go to a troll power and play as troll i will have rank 25 augments. That sucks

[@lucidaaron5018]

Goodness gracious! For WEEKS I've been on the "shout" channel limited to a few messages a day (since I'm not paying monthly)for people to add my gamer tag and help me with this exobyte system and NO ONE helps... Goodness gracious my combat rating is lvl 61 and I have seen a lvl 30 CR guy deal WAY more damage than me. I'm shooting simpleton lasers out of my hands (hand blaster class) and people are fighting with cooler looking effects gosh. I wish I never chose healer class because everyone doesn't seem to be effected by the bosses and I literally see their health go up in seconds whilst still attacking and not even wasting time using a heal spell. I'm on Xbox and JUST found out how to talk (DCUO settings, audio, turn off voice, hard reset Xbox, load back up game and turn voice back on from DCUO settings..) Dude I have no life this game.. Everytime I went to that machine to salvage NOTHING popped up lol so here I am doing boss fights running around endlessly slowly killing high lvls and simply selling all the gear... Dude what a waste of time.. I don't even know how a generator works!!! Took me an hour just to find my dang base in gotham.. I'm friggin LOST in the huge justice league watch tower.. I STILL don't know how to friggin donate.. so I just consume it.

[@KasirRham]

Where do you get adaptive augments?

[@aurorarose4506]

I love this video!! I've been playing for three years and then put it down for a while now I'm picking it back up with my original account on PS4 .. thank you for the input

[@VagrantVideos]

Marshall Hoffert no problem sir glad I could help

[@beedoubleu]

How do you get both augments into both having green stats??

[@VagrantVideos]

What?

[@artificialintelligence0101]

Is there a cap to leveling origin augments?

[@VagrantVideos]

Cap chances every dlc, I have no idea what it is now though since I quit the game permanently last year lol

[@astuteignorance5733]

Do you know what day the transition period that provides the golden exobytes expires? Because I'm lazy and don't want to farm any more than I have to 😅

[@VagrantVideos]

I’m assuming next game update which could be next month

[@astuteignorance5733]

Ok, thanks for quick reply. One more question regarding something you mentioned that I didn't quite understand: Are you saying that it would be better to level out all of the augments equally, or to prioritize the ones for your role and then level the others?

[@VagrantVideos]

Level your main augments equally first (dps and second role) then also don’t forget your others that you might not need as well. Especially with the color Bonuses.

[@astuteignorance5733]

Vagrant Ok, thanks. And great guide! :)

[@Siramez]

wait wait, am i seeing the word "rune" on the augments? im so confused

[@VagrantVideos]

I explain where runes, metagenes and implants come into effect. It’s based on your mentor but it has no effect other than look.

[@Siramez]

oops, didnt watch the whole video, hah my bad *so awkward...*

[@blackwing6725]

damn im to lte to the quests wht do i do now?

[@VagrantVideos]

Its very easy to level up your augments, any time you salvage any unwanted gear you get an exobyte to enhance them, just run content and you'll level them up to a decent rank.

[@m1gaming899]

Well i missed it lol where else can i get those

[@VagrantVideos]

M1 Gaming Momentum nowadays in the cash shop

[@Purgosmusic]

After lvl 30 i usually just free roam its alot less of a headache

[@jarrettbatchelor1873]

Chrismatt Gardner I do the same thing 😂🤷🏼‍♂️

[@simonjack9699]

I know it's 2022 but they should have just gave us a simple quest to get the required augment material to level up and augment. You have to do one Quest and then you have to do this and then you have to crap and then you got to do this and do that and do this and do that of course people are going to pay money for it because they want to do all that f****** stupid work it'll be so much better if you had like a 5% chance to get the ultimate material from completing a weekly Bounty or completing a normal or elite alert or raid.. it all comes down to accessibility because honestly the accessibility of these require materials yeah it's mostly for people who have no life who play this game 40 hours a day LOL we know that augments are important to make your character even powerful so there should be better accessibility there should be options you can either craft it or you could just have a chance to get one from completing a harder difficulty mission.. think about Destiny 2 at the beginning in 2014 for the first Destiny game the only way to level up was to do the raid and Bungie realized only 10% of the community actually reached max level they decided to make it where there's accessibility for everybody that you could do the raid or you can do Crucible or you could do a strike to level up. So the same goes for augments it needs to have accessibility you need to be able to do other stuff to acquire the augment material besides what you said and besides buying it from the marketplace I feel like Daybreak is just forcing people to buy from the marketplace because of how much work it takes to level up an augment.. cough cough pay to win. think about it when we talk about like the op back or we talk about an artifact it's not hard to level up the materials literally drop in endgame content why can't the same be said for augment materials! I already have my own concerns about the Opie back I think it's ridiculous how low the stats are that people just level it up just for the sake of reaching higher levels which really doesn't matter. Example once you're 370 there's no reason to reach 370 past 370 in 2022. I looked at the max level OP back for DC Universe Online episode 43 the stats are f****** terrible I don't even have the Op back and my might is over 100k.. then it's kind of dumb when we had the Flashpoint episode you instantly got the op back but with episode 43 you have to waste 25 death metal tokens if I'm going to use those tokens I'm going to use it for armor I'm going to use it for stuff I can help my character with I'm not going to waste it on a freaking op back that has worse stats than a freaking level 30 item. Yes I'm aware when you love it up it increases the stats but why should I level up a back when I already have a good back in the first place LOL. So in conclusion I feel like the op neck the op back needs to be reworked and needs to have better stats it needs to be worth your time other than a way to increase your level most importantly you need to be able to have the option to earn augment materials simply playing end game content! It just reminds me too much of Assassin's Creed Valhalla where they have so much of the good armor locked behind the microtransactions and then they have shity armor for free. Maybe people don't want to pay attention to that kind of thing it's pretty obvious what Daybreak is doing they are trying to use microtransactions as a way to make players more powerful and forcefully make it where you can get this particular stuff in game but it can take you several months to do so

Awesome video!

[@jahj316]

Cr must be 230..

[@kinglyatticus]

There's no rhyme or reason why this needs to be so complicated -__- The video was clear and precise however. I'm speaking about the mechanics of the game. I feel like I'm learning a new language
