Beginner's Guide — Everything You Need Before Launch
New to WON Legends? Learn the core loop, currencies, team size, and what to focus on on day one when the public build opens.
Welcome, Summoner
WON Legends is a turn-based 5v5 pet battler. You collect pets, build a squad of five, fight PvE Campaign stages and ranked Arena battles, then reinvest rewards into runes, skill-ups, and star promotions.
Note: The public build is coming soon. This guide describes planned systems so you can prepare before launch.
The core loop
- Summon pets with GWON or scrolls
- Build a 5-pet team with element coverage and role balance
- Fight Campaign (PvE) and Arena (PvP)
- Earn GWON, medals, scrolls, and account XP
- Invest in runes, Awaken, Up-star, and Skill-up
- Unlock new modes as your account level rises
Your first team (recommended shape)
| Slot | Role | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Tank (Colossus) | Absorb damage, taunt |
| 2 | Healer (Warden) | Sustain through Campaign |
| 3 | DPS (Striker/Mystic) | Main damage |
| 4 | Controller (Hexer) | Stun / slow / strip |
| 5 | Flex | Counter-pick by element |
A balanced team beats five random high-star pets with no synergy.
Currencies at a glance
| Currency | Earn from | Spend on |
|---|---|---|
| GWON | Campaign, Arena, quests | Summon (100 GWON), skill-up, up-star, Awaken, shops |
| Medals | Arena wins (5 per win) | Light & Dark scrolls, Legendary scrolls (monthly caps) |
| Scrolls | Drops, shops, events | Targeted summons (Mystical, Legendary, L&D…) |
Account level unlocks (milestones)
| Level | Unlock |
|---|---|
| 1 | Campaign, Summon |
| 5 | Arena PvP |
| 12 | Attribute Dungeons (planned) |
| 18 | Guild system (planned) |
| 25 | World Boss (planned) |
| 30 | Territory raids (planned) |
| 40 | Pet Fusion NFT (planned) |
Star system (important)
| Summon (gacha) | Grow-up (merge) | |
|---|---|---|
| Max | 5★ | 6★ Awakened |
| How | GWON + scrolls | Merge material pets + GWON |
6★ is never summoned — only earned from a max-level natural 5★.
Day-one checklist (when launch opens)
- Clear Campaign stages for first-clear GWON bonuses
- Complete daily quests for steady income
- Save scrolls until you understand the pet pool
- Equip Swift or Fury runes on your farmer first
- Set Arena defense before you start attacking
