![]() ![]() Blocking causes the player's character to stand still in a defensive position for a brief moment. Strafing allows the player to constantly face one direction and fire medium-speed attacks. In Dark Legacy, the player has the added abilities of blocking, charging, and strafing. This places more emphasis on the decision of which items to buy. Dark Legacy has more items than the original, though are generally more expensive. Items provide benefits and disappear within a set time or set number of uses. Items are activated upon pickup on the arcade and Playstation 2 versions, however, on the GameCube and Xbox versions, item pickups can be disabled using the item menu. The player can gather items from within levels or purchase them in the shop. Dark Legacy adds the ability for two players standing adjacent to each other to perform a combination turbo attack together, usually packing a lot of force (and draining half of the turbo gauge of the player that initiated the combination turbo). When the turbo gauge is empty, no turbo attacks can be used until it filled up again. This turbo gauge allows the player to use turbo attacks, which do damage in a wide area or over a long distance, and can pierce through multiple enemies and walls. ![]() As in Legends, each player has a turbo gauge that refills slowly and automatically. Combos are much stronger than normal attacks, and are usually capable of taking out several enemies at once. In Gauntlet Dark Legacy, the player can perform combos by using slow attacks and quick attacks in sequence while engaged in melee combat. The player has the option of performing a slow, strong attack, or a quick, weaker attack, as opposed to Legends, where there is only one type of attack. ![]() Gauntlet Dark Legacy, as an expansion to Gauntlet Legends, plays similarly, but with new levels, items, characters, and combat capabilities.
