question regarding legendary items, in general (how to get em)

[anguelwyvern]

ok so im upgrading all my stuff (with a pawn that finally reached 20 in construction) to masterwork made all my beds, now im on the dresser, i noticed that despite now making tons of masterwork, not a single legendary came out, any idea on "how" to make these in legendary in a reliable way or its jsut random ?

It requires them to have the temporary "Inspiration" trait, but since you've got them to 20 the chance is very good on the next crafted item.

PS: I assume that this is still correct, at least in spirit. :)

now teh question is how do i get my pawn to get said inspiration :(

Inspiration needs to be in a very good mood. What inspiration you get is somewhat random.

They have a chance of getting an inspiration after waking up with a high mood. There's also a psycast (if you have Royalty) that generates an inspiration on the target pawn.

Pray to RNG... Or dev console...

i will most likely pray to rng xD i remember quite some time ago i had close forever the devs console, and its gone forever now ^^ but im curious about this psycast thing too

It's called (very originally) Word of Inspiration.

There's also a trait, "Tortured Artist", that may be of interest. It causes a high chance (or guaranteed? Not entirely sure) to trigger an inspiration after any mental break. Just keep them on a diet of air until they break. :P

You can go search the instruction on how to restore the Dev Console. Don't remember a single one, but it's there.

If you have ideology you can get a role that gives +1 to the item quality the pawn create, that way your masterworks should become legendaries

Not sure where you got the "waking up" part from. They can just get that during the day.

The Francis John YT video on sleep. Could have been updated since or he could have just been misinformed at the time
