In this massive dystopian metropolis, you will embark on a journey to find Golden Boughs with a cast of 12 Sinners.
The game comes along with 12 main playable characters as well, making the gameplay mechanics and UI much more approachable and attractive to the players. Let us now dive into a detailed Limbus Company beginners’ guide, along with a few tips that will help out the amateurs build up a great team and win clashes with their characters.Â
Gameplay Overview
Limbus Company is a turn-based RPG and thus follows a simple set-and-click system. The combat settings are set up so that players have to form a chain of offense or defense moves that are centered on Clashing with the enemies.
The Clashing is a mechanic in which the game’s RNG mechanic tosses a coin, which decides who will be the victor on the ensuing 1v1 between our character and the enemy.
The game has several categories, sins, classes, and damage types. Thus, players need to check out the combination of Sins for all the heroes they own and then come to a conclusion while creating a good team.
You will need to make a team that has the same damage types to ensure that the status they inflict is potent enough to defeat the enemies before their next turn begins.
Mastering the Combat functionality in Limbus Company
The combat consists of having to see what type of Sin your team is having, which is gathered by using skills of the said color, which goes like the seven deadly sins, which are Wrath, Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Sloth, and Pride.
They are shown by their color in case you forgot the names. When you gather enough sins, they grant you passives that help you win the RNG more and gain more buffs for the team.
After this, players need to see if their clash has an advantage or disadvantage on the enemy, as the more dominating the clash is, the higher the chance of getting a head’s coin in the RNG and winning the class against the enemy. Different enemies have different Resistance towards statuses, damage type, weapon type, and lastly the seven deadly sins type.
Egos and how they work
Limbus Company has an ultimate system, which is known as Egos. All of your sinners have a base Ego, but they are in the ZAYIN category, which goes higher in this order: ZAYIN, TETH, HE, WAW, and ALEPH.
To use an Ego in battle, players need to meet the requirements of the Sin it requires, which is generated by clashing with the skill that has the Sin it requires. It uses the sanity of sinners as well, which, when used in negative sanity can cause the ego to corrupt and backfire on the entire team.
When you make a team, make sure you have characters in your team that are generating the required sins with their skills, or else your ego won’t have enough sins to use in the battles. Be sure to check what passives your egos have too, as they are giving benefits to the entire team, and they are always there once you do a ult, so that’s very handy in getting out of unwinnable clashes.
Introducing the Basics of Limbus Company
Here are all the basics that you should know before playing the game:
Window
The window is the main homepage of the game. Players can check out every possible news, email, and check out all the details about the currencies they have with them as well. The Window page also has an inventory feature where players can go through all the itineraries and resources they hold. Don’t forget to keep tabs on mail box for rewards.
Sinners
Sinners is the section where players can check all the characters they have held up from the game. The game will hand you 12 Sinners from the get-go. You can level them here, switch their IDs and their Egos.
You can also check out the stats of every sinner easily by long pressing on the particular sinner they want to check, and then the stats page will pop up on the screen. Check the Limbus Company Sinners Tier List.
Drive
The Drive is the section where players check out the current Cantos, aka Chapters, and the events they are going through. You can also do Laxcavations, Mirror Dungeons, and Refraction Railway to farm lunacy and ego shards for your characters.
Although not everything is unlocked from get go, as many of the modes are end-game content and chapter locked, so only focus on Laxcavation to build up teams.
The game follows a linear storyline, and the event stories are permanent, so you won’t have to think of missing anything when you miss an event. Thus, check out all the chapters, stages, and missions and claim victory over every stage to proceed further.
Theater
The Theater is the place where all the archives, contexts, and notes of our main character are written. You will find more context and lore on how each city and each thing is working. Get information on the enemy and their lore. Know more about the background and story behind each Sinner we are managing, and it gets more and more updated the more we progress through the story.
Extract
The Extract is one of the most important places you can ever spot in the game. In this section, you can summon the sinners’ IDs or Egos and make their team the ultimate one. For summoning IDs, you need to have an appropriate amount of Lunacy, which is an in-game currency that helps you to summon sinners. The game is usually run with three types of Extractions:
- Target Extraction
- Standard Extraction
- Welcome EXtraction (this one goes away after you get your guaranteed ID)
Dispense
In Dispense, you can unlock different sets of IDs for every character along with their E.G.Os. To unlock them, every individual requires a certain number of character shards for all the aspects that they desire to unlock. They are acquired in Ego shard crates, which are farmed on the battlepass by doing the mirror dungeon, and also get them from events.
Utilizing the in-game Currency and Resources
The game has fewer currencies and resources for the players. Every currency and resource has a different purpose to fulfill while progressing toward the storyline.
Lunacy
Lunacy is an in-game currency that helps out for different sets of Extractions in the game. This helps you to summon more powerful sinners IDs and Egos for your team, and also you can buy Enkephalin Boxes as well.
Thread
Thread is a resource that helps you to tier up (promote basically) sinners’ IDs and their EGOs. They are also farmable by doing the Laxvacation, Events, and the Battlepass by doing mirror dungeons. You can also exchange them in the Dispense menu with ego shards that you won’t be using.
Enkephalin
Enkephalin is the energy/stamina equivalent of this game. It is required to do battle stages in the game, and you get them by waiting for it to refill, leveling up your account, from the battlepass, or from events.
They are also directly purchasable by the lunacy. They can be made into a module, which is needed when doing any dungeons or laxvacations in the game. So be mindful of how you use them.
Egoshard
Egoshards are used for purchasing any character’s identities, EGO, and thread so that you can make a good team. Every sinner has individual Egoshards and those are applicable only to that particular sinner. Thanks to this, you can get every character ID and their EGO except for the collaboration ones.
Limbus Company Beginners Guide: Tips and Tricks
Here are the best Limbus Company tips for beginners that will help you to do well from the start of the game:
1. Summon more and more Sinners IDs
Lunacies can be easily received from the game. Thus, use them wisely and summon more sinners so that you can make your ultimate team that will have balanced stats for all the characters, while you choose before starting any battle. To claim a great victory, it is necessary to have a great team, and it is only possible by summoning more sinners.
2. Follow up the storyline
You need to go through all the chapters, their stages, and all the assigned missions under them to follow up through the progression of the game. This will help you receive many rewards, and you can later utilize them to upgrade your profile and team.Â
3. Complete mirror dungeons
You can do Mirror Dungeon once you have gotten past the prologue. By doing Mirror Dungeons, you can get the main currency: Lunacy to pull characters, and also level up the battle pass, and even use Rental weekly teams to understand how good teams and their synergy work. So you can plan out for yourself. The mode is full-on rogue-like, which expands the games battlesystem, so enjoy the clashing.
4. Focus on the team’s buffs and debuffs
Check out for the sanity and all the other possible states of the sinners while battling with your team. These are very important to go through, or else you’ll end up facing a hilarious defeat that will be really unexpected. A perfectly balanced team will always help you to grab the victory and give it your name. Remember, the debuffs you give aren’t only applicable to enemies.
5. Check out properly before executing the combat chain
While forming the attack chain, check out all the possible outcomes that can be seen through the arrows (that go from their sinner to the opponent). If the arrow directly goes to the opponent, that means you have the shot. But if the opponent also shoots up a red color arrow toward your sinner, that means the opponent will deal with your damage and will also come up with its powerful move. So, go through all this properly before landing your attack, or else you might face defeat.Â
