Legendary Heavy Combat Armor
I'm lvl 72, have found tons of full heavy sets. None have been legendary. Been farming legendarys in gunners plaza and other gunner zones. Has any1 found a Heavy as legendary? Im not sure if its possible.

Some types aren't possible it seems. For example, I never found a legendary hat/helmet and certain bonuses are only available for specific slots. But isn't 'heavy' an improvement which you can make at a workbench? I don't think it's even the best one.

Heavy is just the base armor. You can still add polymer, and a misc mod to it. Giving the Heavy Chest Combat Armor with 42 dmg reduc. and 42 energy reduc. From what ive seen it is the highest armor. Not counting power armor. I have never found a legendary hat/helmet either. Although there are some legendary helmets you can buy from certain vendors.

Maybe its coincidence but something odd is happening to me; its possible to farm legendary gear from legendary enemies if u enter a building and there's a legendary enemy nearby. If u reload the automatic game save from entering the building, the enemy will stay the same but their legendary gear will change. In the past this has yielded some good gear but sometimes it seems like the range of gear seems a little small, and in this particular instance (im farming a legendary protectron watcher) its only yielding legendary right metal armor legs. The point is, if ur not finding the gear ur after maybe ur fighting the wrong legendary enemies? my fortified heavy combat armor dropped from a radscorpion so check them out.

heres how you're supposed to farm legendaries.

find an instanced zone that you havent cleared. i use the naional guard training camp. manual save just outside the door, then when you go inside manual save again. clear the legendaries in the zone (theres almost always at least one)

if you dont like the gear types you find, reload first save that puts you outside the entrance. when you re-enter do another save and continue clearing until you find the gear type you need.

when you find the gear type you need, for instance you are hunting for a 10mm, and you find a legendary one but it has a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ affix, reload 2nd save that puts you inside the entrance. this means that 10mm will now always drop from that legendary mob, but the affix will be randomized every time you kill it.

when you find the peice you need, leave and find a bed/chair. wait for 3-5 in game days then go back. the zone should be repopulated, rinse and repeat till you get all the gear you need.

Martyr's Heavy Armor, slow time when <20% health

I also found a Never Ending Fatman, not as good as it sounds
