Dark vs World Tree
The two Legendaries. Dark is the stronger solo damage book; World Tree trades some damage for heals and crowd control that shine in groups.
Which one should you pick?
Our verdict Gamoryx, based on the data and rankings below.
You play solo, want range and sustained DPS, or would rather save 15M Yul (25M vs 40M).
You play with friends or a clan, want heals, or want a book that is also strong in PvP.
Side by side
| Attribute | Dark | World Tree |
|---|---|---|
| Official group | Lucky | Lucky |
| Rarity | Legendary | Legendary |
| Rarity chance per spin | 4.5% | 4.5% |
| Store price | 25,000,000 Yul | 40,000,000 Yul |
| Community tier (Faceless/ItzVexo) | S | S |
| Maxbit tier | A | A |
| Identity | The third-best book in the game: great cooldowns, sustained DPS, crowd control and range. | The group-play Legendary: heals and crowd control without giving up much damage. |
| Documented moves | Z, X, C, V | Z, X, C, V |
| Strengths | Top-3 book in community rankings; Pull + slam combo groups and deletes packs; Good range and cooldowns; Cheaper than World Tree | Heals and crowd control; Strong in groups and in PvP; No Spirit Moss in the awakening recipe |
| Weaknesses | Not as bursty as Light; Mana Crystal and Spirit Moss are needed every stage | A bit weaker solo; Needs Ancient Sap and Wind Seeds, neither of which has a published source; 40M Yul to buy outright |
| Awakening materials | Boar Meat, Earth Root, Honey, Mana Crystal, Spirit Moss, Stone Crust | Ancient Sap, Earth Root, Golden Leaf, Green Herb, Wild Berries, Wind Seeds |
Highlighted = better on that line, only when both values are published. Shared awakening materials: Earth Root — owning both books doubles the demand on these.
What the rankings say
Maxbit: “Amazing cooldowns and sustained DPS making it the top 3 Grimoire in Clover Legends. It's also got great CCs and good range.” Faceless ranks Dark above World Tree within his S group.
Full Dark page →Maxbit calls it “S-Tier Meta when you play in a group and a bit lower alone. You have a ton of heals and crowd control while not losing out on damage too much. It's actually pretty strong in PVP too.” The Faceless/ItzVexo consensus places it in S, just below Dark.
