Getting Attack, Skill, and Heroic Essence in Marvel’s Midnight Suns

To get a hold of these very valuable resources, the most straightforward way is to obtain them via Researching Artifacts. These precious items can be found as part of mission rewards and usually yield a ton of each Essence.

Alternatively, you can pick up small amounts of Essences when exploring The Abbey and the grounds around it, or as rewards from Hydra Caches and interrogated enemies during combat encounters. Once you have a healthy supply, you can put them to good use.

Using Attack, Skill and Heroic Essence in Marvel’s Midnight Suns

There are two main ways to utilize the different Essences that you can find in Marvel’s Midnight Suns. The first will be at The Yard, where you can upgrade your existing cards when you have an extra copy together with the requisite amount of Essence. Naturally, Attack cards need Attack Essence, and so on. Further upgrades to The Yard will unlock the ability to add Modifiers to the cards, which also requires Essence.

Another avenue of use will be at The Forge. New cards can be crafted at the anvil, while combat items can be crafted at the unlocked Work Bench. The former will be important if you are looking to upgrade existing cards but are not willing to wait for a random drop, while the latter can give you an advantage during battles.
