DC Universe Online is permanently being updated and improved; so in addition to DLC packs, Game updates introduce add additional content, missions, items and locations.

Celestial Power Revisions!

With Game Update 45, we have made improvements to Celestial DPS. Celestial’s advanced mechanic is still based on performing Celestial Combos. However, the abilities will now deal more damage when performed immediately after a multi-input Celestial Combo.

To match all other advanced mechanics and weapon mastery, the Celestial Combos, while in Damage Role, now inflict and become vulnerable to counter mechanics.

New Legends PvE Event – Blüdhaven

The newest installment of Legends PvE is now available! Create unique teams of iconic DC Legends characters and face the toxic Chemo in the mutant wasteland of Blüdhaven!

Players will be rewarded with Marks of Legend for defeating all the bosses and completing the instance – each boss will drop at least one Mark. Players will also be able to earn feat points by completing the achievements in the event itself. Look for Blüdhaven in the Legends PVE section of the Feats menu.

To queue for the event, just look for Legends: Blüdhaven under the Events tab in the On Duty menu!
