"Dragon Ball Legends" Official Discussion Thread

[Kanassa]

So is Shallot any useful now? I can't try him because i only play story mode when there is really nothing else to do (hardly ever lol).
Banner itself is disappointing. I'm glad i didn't listen to people and used CC on previous step-up banner since it was way better.

Havnen't tried him out in PVP yet, but in PvE his transformation has been devastating so far. The Frieza boss with two health bars and a buff upon the first health bar dropping could barely hurt him.

[ekrolo2]

Anyone try Gogeta out yet?

[Kaiza_Toshiyuki]

Anyone try Gogeta out yet?

Yeah, he´s pretty kickass, and his counter is really good.

[Noah]

Finally a Super Saiyan transformation with golden tail!


Hope this means upcoming merchandising stuff to have this characteristic back.

Regarding the story:

Spoiler:

I loved that Legends brought some depth to Nappa character better than the main series could ever could, but don't he feel a bit uncharacteristic? Sure he thought Vegeta would use his wish to revive Raditz which means that Nappa saw him as a comrade, but to get any attachment as he did with Shallot? I like it, but it feels kinda off.

About new BANNER:
Man I'll pray to be luck enough to get Super Gogeta, he's the RED element character I've been waiting for since Cell (as I couldn't get him). I need a better SP RED lead than Namek SSJ Goku as he is long obsolete now.

[ZeroNeonix]

I'm surprised Shallot got an actual transformation rather than a separate character slot. On one hand, that means Shallot is still a Hero rank character, but at least we don't have to raise Shallot back up to level 1500. He seems to be pretty strong in Super Saiyan form as well. He can even recharge a ton of ki with his second Main Ability.

[Kanassa]

The story so far...

Spoiler:

Shallot, our protag, is an ancient saiyan with memory loss who is one of many that has been thrown into a world spanning tournament that is various fighters across time fighting against one another. Well, I say tournament, but it just a free-for-all with safe zones where everyone is free to fight as they please. When Shallot wakes up, he is found by Future Trunks who explains a few basic things before they are both attacked by Broly, who they can't defeat together. Even when Goku joins in, Trunks seems to end up getting killed when he gets in the way of a blast Broly sends at Shallot.

After this, Shallot meets up with Dragon Ball Bulma and Present Day Jaco, they team up and head to the safe zone city. Shallot goes off to fight a few filler enemies while waiting for his memory to come back or something to happen and ends up saving Kid Gohan and meeting a swordsman called Zahha. Team up, they're beaten by Raditz. Jaco brings them to Beerus and Whis who reveal that they are in the midst of a hostage situation. A mysterious person has captured the Supreme Kai and forced Beerus to use the Super Dragon Balls to create this tournament under the threat of killing Shin. Since Beerus nor Whis can do anything about this situation without risking Shin's life, they get Shallot and Co to investigate undetected (Goku volunteers, but Beerus specifically notes that Goku and his reputation would draw way too much attention since he's too powerful and most participants in this tournament want to kill him). Noting Shallot's failure to beat Raditz, Beerus forces Saiyan Saga Vegeta and Nappa to train Shallot to kill Raditz.

Eventually, you kick Raditz's ass, before he then gets back up and gets the spoopy purple aura. His cruelty triggers Shallot and gives the Saiyan a little power boost to win. Zahha leaves the group and Piccolo takes Gohan away to train while Shallot follows the trail of destruction that apparently HE left. Turns out he has a hooded twin who wants to cleanse and balance the Saiyan race and who Shallot definitely seems to know. Goku comes in to try and fight, but the Hooded Man gets away. Beerus and Whis speculate on this and throw out the possibility of another 'Black situation', but in the end they just don't know. As the story continues, Turles ends up kidnapping Bulma under the guise of helping Lord Frieza, only for Shallot to learn that a 'fake' Lord Frieza is leading the Frieza force now (Right now, I'm assuming it's either Frost or Cooler) and thus has to ally himself with Frieza to fight the 'imposter', playing double agent. A few more fights and Turles seems to make it clear that he's playing both sides, supplying 'Frieza' with fruit from the tree of might while also helping Shallot out. You also fight and recruit the Ginyu Force here, with Captain Ginyu instantly realizing who the real Frieza is because Frieza radiates such 'grace and poise!'.

Frieza gets Shallot to bring in new recruits alongside Appule, who basically acts as Shallot's number one fan (Who ends up almost blowing Shallot's cover when mistaking Tien and Yamcha greeting 'Lord Shallot' as an insult). Shallot recruits Nappa and Vegeta for support while Appule recruits... Android 19. Who, upon meeting Frieza, gleefully informs them that he's a spy and has transmitted the location to the Red Ribbon Army base. He escapes and Frieza executes Appule for the screw up, which pisses Shallot off. However, when Shallot ttries to attack Frieza, Vegeta gets in the way and fights Shallot, telling Shallot that they have to bide their time and wait for the right moment if they want to beat Frieza. Otherwise, how are they going to rescue Bulma?

The next day, to maximize efficiency and to teach you discipline, Shallot is forced to serve under the Ginyu Force as Frieza executes a plan to reveal the Fake Frieza's base of operations by spreading his forces far enough to leave himself exposed. First, you're teamed up with Guldo and Recoome, who treat you like a kid while trying to also show off how many enemies they can take down, all whiel being shown up by Shallot. Then Burter and Jeice, who get into an argument about whose the second-in-command, staking it on who can take out the most enemies, onyl to find that Shallot beats most of the enemies while the two are arguing, leaving them to decide with rock-Paper-Siccors. Ginyu is where it gets interesting as it develops Shallot's character a little more.

Ginyu notes how powerful Shallot is and the well of potential there, but highlights that Shallot's attitude is holding the saiyan back. Shallot calls their poses stupid, but Ginyu tells him that his men's morale and spirit are key to them being the 'Ultimate Fighting Force' and that without them they'd just be random soldiers who couldn't express themselves. Shallot lacks resolve because he can only see this entire situation as just something he needs to get over and done with. The Ginyu Force have more resolve because this isn't just their job that they do because they fear death by Frieza, it's their passion and duty to do so, bringing it back to Vegeta's mention of Saiyan pride.

So, Ginyu sets Shallot a task, create his own pose or don't bother coming to fight. Shallot phones up Beerus and Jaco to say he can't do it, but they remind him that if he screws this up, he won't be able to be there to save Bulma. If he's not on the battlefield when they assault the main base, neither Frieza nor his men will put any effort into saving Bulma, she'll probably die in the cross fire. Jaco takes over the call and tells Shallot that he'll teach Shallot his pose that's sure to impress the Ginyu Force. THe next day, the Ginyu Force goes through their poses, when it comes to Shallot's turn everybody is watching. Shallot stikes Jaco's pose and... The Ginyu Force can't beleive how much that pose sucks, feeling sorry with how embarassed Shallot must feel. But, through the comments, Ginyu tells them all that while the pose isn't the most refined one, how good it looks wasn't the point of it. What matters is that in taht pose he could see and feel Shallot's resolve to his mission and Ginyu respects that.

The main base is found and everyone gathers to engage on the stage that is very clearly the island from Resurrection F. Frieza tells everybody that the Fake Frieza is his target alone, Shallot locks eyes with Turles from across the water and...

To be continued.

The battle begins, with Team Vegeta you and Nappa start sweeping the floor with the opposite army, leading to a few missions of banter between Shallot, Vegeta and Nappa while Ginyu and Frieza converse on the enemy's endurance. No matter how many they kill, more join the frey. Soon, even Android 19 makes his return leading some of the forces. Starting off the fight, you get a good few blows in before 19 reveals his ability to absorb energy attacks, leading to...
"Aha! Without the ability to fire ki at me, you have no chance"
"Alright, then we'll just have to rip your pale chromedome apart by hand"
"...Oh"

I'm paraphrasing here.

When you kill 19 more of the enemy soldiers start to suspect that they picked the wrong side and that they're working for a fake. Upon seeing this, Turles calls for the fighting to stop so that Frieza can meet with the fake and while everyone sees an obvious trap there, Turles makes a point that this is a good opportunity to learn about the Fake Frieza and get the personal kill. Again, it's clear that Turles has some ulterior motives here and isn't really loyal to the Fake Frieza. Vegeta tells Frieza to let him, Nappa and Shallot come along as well, scheming in his mind. If the two Frieza's fight each other, the winner will be worn out enough for Vegeta and co to jump in for the killing blow. Two birds, one stone.

Inside the ship, you come face to face with... FROST.

Shallot: So this is the fake Frieza? He's so simple. Even less impressive than I imagined...

And this isn't just a Frost from some random timeline, no, no, no: This is Tournament of Power Frost. When brought to this tournament and learning that there was a version of Frieza being here, he came up with this 'Fake Frieza' scheme to pay Frieza back for the betrayal at the tournament, hoping to humiliate and anger Frieza as much as he was back in the Tournament of Power. Upon hearing this, Frieza calls him utter trash for being as childish as to put all this work into something as trivial as revenge (Oh Frieza, you hypocrite you) and tells Frost that he could never be Frieza. Frost, in a blind rage, attacks Frieza, prompting TUrles to come in to fight Vegeta and Co.

Turles is defeated soundly, saying something cryptic about how they better hope Frieza survives. At this Vegeta tells Shallot to accompany him to go help Frieza while Nappa watched their new prisoner. Frost seems to be edging out a win in their fight, but as Frost points out to Vegeta's shock, Frieza is still in his first form. This scares Vegeta and enrages Frost because it shows that Frieza is still not taking him seriously, so he starts eating some Tree of Life Fruit. A fight ensues and he more than easily handles Frieza, Vegeta and Shallot. However, Frieza is still calm and STILL refuses to transform, goading Fridge into eating more and more fruit. Vegeta wants to run, but Shallot scoffs while Frieza tells him that the sentence for running is death. More fighting ensues and Frost just seems to be getting stronger, there's just no hope- And here's where Frieza's plan comes in. Turns out that like most power enhancing substances, taking multiple at the same time can be a bit fatal. Frost only realizes this as his entire body starts caving in on itself and before he can say 'Please don't break my butt', Frieza erases him, once more calling him trash.

Frieza reinstates his army, Vegeta directs him to Turles for interrogation and Shallot searches the ship for Bulma...

The Update

Spoiler:

Turles and Frieza talk for a bit with Turles revealing that yes, he has been playing Frost the whole time for the sake of learning more about the Tree of Might Fruit. A goal that doesn't need to make him and Frieza enemies. Frieza agrees and the two form an alliance, Turles introducing Frieza to his bennefactor, Dr. Gero, who designed all the androids Frost was using to fight, revealing that he was the one who instructed Turles to kidnap Bulma so he could use her comparable intellect to further his research on modifying the genes of powerful fighters. Turles remarks that he hopes Shallot won't be a problem considering that resscuing Bulma is the only reason Shallot is here, but Frieza assures him that it won't mean anything before making an announcement to his troops: Shallot, Vegeta and Nappa are all traitors. Kill them on sight.

It's revealed that Goku is there as well, hiding somewhere and eavesdropping on the evil allaince. He mutters to himself that he needs to tell Beerus about this and teleports away.

With the Saiyan Trio turning up nothing on Bulma, they're close to giving up hope when they're contacted by... Bulma? While forced to work for Gero at metaphorical gunpoint, she sneakily used her time to create somthing she could use to contact Shallot and tell him where she was. She breifly fawns over Vegeta beinga Prince before Gero returns to ask about her progress, cutting off the message and leaving the trio with her location. As soona s the call ends, the trio are attacked by Frieza soldiers, quickly learning that Frieza has fucked them over and that they have to get the hell out of dodge (Despite how much Shallot wants to fight Frieza, Nappa and Vegeta pull him away to rescue Bulma).

After a few filler fights, they arrive at Gero's lab, quickly encountering and dealing with an onslaught of Android 19's. Their last obsticle is Gero, who is absolutely furious, holding Bulma as a human shield against Shallot as he rants about his important research. As Shallot curses about not being able to fight without hitting Bulma- BOOM, Vegeta arrives behind Gero and shoots the man in the back, getting Bulma out of there with a gruff tsunder comment that annoys Bulma. This leaves Gero open for Shallot and Nappa to take down. Though he is presumably killed here, I doubt this is the last we've heard of him since he probably has back ups of himself.

The trio leave the lab and start blowing it the fuck up to screw over Frieza and destroy all the research Turles and Gero have built up. However, Turles arrives to stop them, sending soldiers inside the lab to retreive something. You fight him, but he gets away with whatever he retrieved from the lab, leaving Bulma and Shallot to celebrate the victory. Shallot acting like a worried mother asking Bulma if she's eaten enough and what he can hunt for her. After she jokes about him having no money to get her what she wants they turn to discuss what to do about the Frieza situation now that they've been betrayed.

Shallot wants to fight. Vegeta and Nappa tell him he's being an idiot, but Shallot doesn't care. After seeing how Frieza treats his men, killing poor Appule, treating Vegeta like a pet, stabbing them all in the back, Shallot isn't going to take this any more. Vegeta and Nappa can run away to hide if they like, but he's a saiyan damn it and he's going to kick Frieza's ass!

Frieza: Oh, are you now?
Vegeta: Shit. Shit! SHIT!

Frieza is oh-so-happy that they all waited here for him to deal with tehm personally, he was worried that Turles would have killed them before Frieza had a chance ot see the look of despair on their faces. First things first, Frieza will be taking Bulma, with Gero blown up he's going to need a new scientist who he could keep a personal leash on. Shallot tells Frieza to go to hell, yelling for Vegeta and Nappa to take Bulma as far away from here as they can, to which Frieza responds with a 'Well, I only need her alive, not intact' before attempting to shoot at Bulma... Only for his death beam to be stopped by Goku.

Goku isn't recognised by anyone but Shallot and Bulma, who are relieved to see him. Frieza is angered by this intrusion and asks who the hell Goku thinks he is. Goku, bluntly and innocently, tells Frieza about their fight on Namek in the era Goku's from to which Frieza is furious to hear about. He assumes Goku is joking and, like Frost, is a wretch from another timeline who'd been humiliated by Frieza. It makes no difference, if Goku wants to prove himself, he can fight Frieza right here, right no-

Goku: Oh, sorry, I'm not here to fight you, just get Bulma. Beerus is already mad at me for being here. Shallot's the one that's going to kill you. Besides, at my level, it'd be a pretty one-sided fight, no offense.

Yeah, Goku is only here to rescue Bulma. However, his orders were to retreive Shallot too since Beerus needs Shallot in tact as apart of the deal. But Goku tells Frieza that Shallot will be the one to kill him, to which Shallot confirms and thanks Goku for the oppertunity. Goku tells him, and later Beerus, that he can do it, he's almost 'there'. After passing two sensu beans to SHallot, he's gone with one instant transmission and the battle begins. Vegeta and Nappa decide to stay and fight, Vegeta telling Shallot that Frieza would have found them eventually. Better to stay and die fighting like a Saiyan than running from death as a coward for a few more days.

For their best chance of winning, Vegeta tells Shallot and Nappa to take on the Ginyu Force while he handles Frieza elsewhere. Shallot tries to aruge, but Vegeta tells him that they ahve to put their personal conenctions aside here, no matter how much Shallot hates Frieza, he won't stand a chance fighting him. Shallot agrees and tosses the beans to Vegeta before Vegeta leaves with Frieza. Ginyu holds back the rest of the force and sends out some soldiers, saying he wants to watch Shallot fight first. After those fights are done, Ginyu is dissappointed. He reveals that Shallot is holding back, yelling to Shallot that if he wants any hope of going to fight Frieza, he needs to hit them with all he has. He even starts giving Shallto and Nappa tips.

The Force are confused on why Ginyu is helping Shallot out, Ginyu tells them and Shallot that Shallot is way too dumb to be holding back for the purpose of conserivng energy for his fight against Frieza, whihc means Shallot is holding back because he doesn't want to fight them. No matter how Shallot demands it, he doesn't want to hurt the Ginyu Force and they feel the same way. Ginyu says that no matter if their duty to Lord Frieza is above all else, no matter if Shallot is the enemy... He's still the sixth member of the Ginyu Force. The rest of the force exchange simmilar comments and Shallot sorta admits it. But Ginyu reminds them that no amtte rtheir personal ties, they ahve to be resolute in their duties, they have to fight here and Shallot better fight to win like they are no matter if it feels bad afterwards. It's the respect each of them deserves.

The fight ensues and one-byone the Ginyu Force falls, but by the end of it Shallot doesn't kill them. However they still get back up to fight. Shallot yells at them to stay down and not push themselves too hard, Ginyu admiting that he is ashamed that he would end this battle by outnumbering Shallot, asking if he looks like a coward now. Shallot says he understands, promising to fight to the bitter end.

"Well spoken, Shallot. As the sixth member of the Ginyu Force- You will fall by our hands!"

Before they can fight, Nappa suddenly yells out for them to stop, telling Shallot that he's a mornon for not taking this oppertunity to run to help Vegeta. The Ginyu Force? Pfft, Nappa can take care of them. There are more important things than this fight and the Ginyu Force, besides, Nappa doesn't like them getting all high-and-mighty over Shallot. "Let's get one thing clear! I'M his teacher, got it? Not you!" Ginyu laughs and says that Nappa isn't worhty of being Shallot's teacher, which Shallot disagrees with in a quick mutter.

Shallot: Nappa, you can't take all of them on at once!
Nappa: Forgotten your teachings already? I told you that you're a hundred years too young to be worrying about your teacher! Do you really want to stay here and finish these guys off? If you get what I'm saying, then get a move on. GO!

After Nappa literally kicks Shallot out of the fight, Ginyu wonders if Nappa is letting Shallot go while he stays behind because of the pride he feels as a teacher, going on to ask Nappa what the point of letting Shallot go is. Nappa knows that SHallot stands no chance against Frieza, right? He's rpactically sending his student to his death, what's wrong with him!? Nappa tells Ginyu that it doesn't matter whether Shallot can or cannot beat Frieza. What matters is that Shallot wants to try. He's granting his pupil's wish and if he's going to risk his life, the rival better be worth it. Ginyu regards this as classic heavy-handed Saiyan kindness.

Ginyu: Nappa, do you intend to die here?
Nappa: Heh, beats me.
Ginyu: I always thought of you as Vegeta's lackey... But I see I was wrong. Very well, we'll devote the last of our lives to this battle too!

There's an explosion. Shallot looks back and... He can't feel their ki anymore.

He already misses them.

Shallot arrives in the middle fo Frieza and Vegeta's battle, Vegeta faring well consideirng his opponent. He tells Shallot that he already knows of Nappa's demise and that they have a fight to win. Shallot tags in and the fight ensues. As you'd expect from the Frieza fight, they push Frieza ot the limit, he transforms, rinse and repeat. For the first form, vegeta already knows thanks to the fight with Frost, though he still can't beleive the power Frieza has. When Frieza powers up to his second form, he easily knocks the tired Vegeta aside and rushes Shallot. Luckily, Vegeta takes one of the sensu beans and gets back on his feet, helping Shallot beat back Frieza and force him to transform once more (Zenkai boost and all). The third form proves powerful, it's speed far outclassing them, however when Shallot looks to be at his limit, Vegeta hands him the last beam. In an inner monolouge, Vegeta can't understand why he did that when he was planning to use the last bean for himself to survive. Shallot gets a Zenkai boost as well and together they burn through Third Form Frieza. Of course, Frieza goes Final Form on them and... Vegeta gives up. He doesn't make any mroe proclimations, any more threats, he just admits that no hope remains and that they're screwed. They can't win.

Frieza is happy that Vegeta has accepted his place, but a little too late. See, the power up both vegeta and Shallot went through, managing to push Frieza to his final form? Well, that just proves Saiyans are too troublesome for their own good. Frieza will have to kill them all, including the likes of Kid Gohan. AS Shallot is the one still willing to fight, Frieza decides to kill Shallot first, just one last blast. Shallot is sure this is the end, prepared to rush ina nd face his death head on... At least until Vegeta jumps in the way and dies in Shallot's place. When asked why he did it, Vegeta tells Shallot that he saw true Saiyan Pride in this out-of-place Saiyan, something to preserve. He admits that the Saiyans have been reduced to nothing, just mindless pawns that bowed their head to Frieza without pride. But Shallot? He's from before that. He's a saiyan before the saiyans were corrupted by Frieza, before Saiyans lost their way, before they lost their pride. As Vegeta dies, Shallot looks back on all of Vegeta's other speeches and comments, realizing he hadn't given Vegeta enough credit. He thought Vegeta was cowardly and scared for not facing down Frieza, but he now realises that Vegeta had been fighting for his pride this whole time no matter how much Frieza tried to stamp it out. Fighting for his life, his dignity, his race and his saiyan pride.

Now Shallot has to fufill his promise and show Frieza that you never underestimate the Saiyan Race.

I love so far this story, can't wait to see more of it ^^

By change is there people who tried Janemba ?

[SSGSSmomo]

I have and he is a pretty cool character as he has a counter and his sidestep is that lego block thing he did in the movie.

1) I did enjoy seeing the most well known villain of the Dragon World again causing his very own downfall in provoking an amnesiac warrior from the most powerful race of all existence.

2) The Cosmic Illusion of Super Janemba might be what you are referring to by your earlier description above of a certain counterattack resembling someone turning into Lego Blocks.

[Sora Saiyan]

I haven’t played this game in around a month, and decided to start again now, well on my first multi summon upon returning to the game I got both Super Gogeta, and Janenba. I’m not sure if the SP rates have changed at all, but if not thats pretty great.

[ekrolo2]

Finally a Super Saiyan transformation with golden tail!

As it should be.

Nah, I don't think they changed. You're just ridiculously lucky. lol

[Noah]

The only thing that I find odd about this new Legends Rising banner is that soon we'll get characters like Adult Teen Gohan, Majin Vegeta, SSJ3 Goku, Gotenks, Majin Boo, Dabura, Super Boo and etc...

Will they make these characters stronger than Gogeta and Janemba to increase the power creep? Seems a bit overblow.

I would prefer if this banner had Android 13 or Bojack e.g

[Noah]

"Ultra Space-Time Summon #6" now on!


Can't believe I got Gotenks on my first try, Gogeta is still my object of desire, but is always cool to get these new characters.

Also we got the first non SP SSJ character:


And base Gohan (youth) (hope we get his SSJ form as well):

[Bebi Hatchiyack]

My luck on drawing new sparking sucks jeez, hope that turn soon

[FlpShimizu]

I gave up trying to get Gogeta. I won't spend money on the game, so I'm just using the gems you get from playing. Summoned 30 + characters and nothing. Since I don't have more gems to spend (all story missions and other events are done), I give up on him.

Yeah. If you go into a summon expecting something in particular, you're almost certain to be disappointed. I got Super Janemba, so I'm satisfied that I got something of worth from it. But hey, thanks to the Broly movie, we're likely to get a new Gogeta Blue later anyway, which will undoubtedly be better than Super Gogeta. Maybe there will even be an Extreme variety base form Gogeta as well.

[Bebi Hatchiyack]

Damn the last mission of Androids 16, 18 and 17 in with their Super card I can't beat it.

[Noah]

But hey, thanks to the Broly movie, we're likely to get a new Gogeta Blue later anyway, which will undoubtedly be better than Super Gogeta. Maybe there will even be an Extreme variety base form Gogeta as well.

I don't think we'll get this character any sooner... I mean probably new Broly or something, but a SSJ Blue character while still didn't got any major Super character and the game is still doing Majin Boo arc events? Unlikely.
