Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game – Complete Edition has its share of quirks, not least of which being that the basic attacks you use aren’t strengthened by leveling up. This can leave you wondering how to properly increase your character’s attack to more quickly defeat enemies, without any idea of how to do so. That’s why we’re here to walk you through what to do with a guide on how to increase attack in Scott Pilgrim The Game Complete Edition.
Fortunately, there is a way to increase your attack power for each character, allowing you to deal more damage with each hit and stand a chance against the game’s late-stage enemies.
How to Increase Attack in Scott Pilgrim The Game Complete Edition
While your characters do level up in Scott Pilgrim, you won’t be able to effectively increase their attack power by gaining experience.
Instead, you can increase the amount of damage they deal by buying the necessary items from vendors. Scattered throughout each area, vendors can be found by entering illuminated doorways and purchasing their wares. These could be anything from T-Shirts and wristbands to a cybernetic arm, and will increase your attack by a set amount with each one you purchase.
In particular, you’ll want to visit the CD Shop, Book Shop and Wallace’s Hidden Shop in the game’s first zone. Each carries items that can substantially increase your attack and make the rest of the game easier to complete. You’ll be able to tell which items increase your attack by reading their descriptions and looking for the ones that mention strength.
The CD and Book Shops can be found in the Shopping District, while Wallace’s Secret Shop has a hidden entrance behind a wall with a star on it in the section with speeding cars.
We’ve included some screenshots of the shops’ locations down below for your convenience.
How to Increase Attack for All Characters
However, it’s worth noting that buying said items won’t raise all of your characters’ attack power in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition.
Instead, you’ll need to purchase each item as each different character. It can be a bit of a pain, but shouldn’t take more than an hour or so of grinding up money as each character.
Hopefully this cleared up how to increase attack in Scott Pilgrim The Game Complete Edition. For more on the game, check out one of its most recent trailers as well as the news that it’ll receive a Limited Run physical edition.
