Legendary Vs. Epic

[Marcus101RR]

Why in the heck are Legendaries worthless? You get more your worth from epics or am I wrong?

[CursedPanther]

You get the Legendary gears for the full set bonus. But if that doesn't interest you, then by all means stick to Epic mix n match stuff.

[Stray]

There's not reason to use Legendary Gear onless you want to have Two Armor Legendaries at the same time, but you will be down 1 engraving for it out of the 3 you get

[Warlord]

Literally unplayable

Legendaries should be 'Legendary'. They need another stat on each piece to make it worthwhile, otherwise it's epics all the way.

But at least now i can use the graphic of legendaries.

So this confirms it, I am not making a mistake, the legendaries "All set bonus" is only active once you have all 5 of them, and not only that you are still 1 short of a stat (engrave) that epics provide along with the one you can actually engrave yourself.

Not sure why they are legendary if they lack a specific trait, I suppose they though that players would built towards a specifc main/sub class assassin branch to enpower that specific trait ultimately?

legendary weapons have more base dmg than epic, legendary armors parts have more 'armor base" than epic though.
still i doubt the armor bonus they give is worth losing engraving slot. didn't really tested it.

It's so there is a tradeoff and not a clear winner between epic and legendary. If you want raw stat power, go for epics. If you want a specific set bonus (some are OP, some are kinda lame) go with legendaries. IMO it was worth losing an engraving on my armor pieces for the increased burn rate of ignites. The dmg ignite puts out is already dumb, Agemmemnon makes it downright absurd.

[Basementlivingnerdsareagitated]

no, the legendary set extra bonus can be engraved in epics once unlocked when the set is complete. you don't need to wear complete legendary set to benefit the bonus. so except of dmg and armor value, legendary have nothing more than epics to offer.

Legendaries are worse then epic by design because the devs wanted to create a constant drive and ability to grow your character instead of sticking with 1 legendary set for the rest of the game.

At least not for me since i go for look over stats and rarity. :)

[Inardesco]

I used Heroes of Greece set for a while, now switched to Aganemnon cuz fire = best

Leg is totally useless, they need 5 set items ( so you have no choice of prefix and 5 slots ) to give you one not-that-power bonus.

[Inardesco]

Meh, I prefer that over trying to scrap armour together for weeks on end to get a set with engravings that I like.
