Some gadgets have the potential to be legendary.
Even earlier than Final Epoch launched in February 2024, gadgets have been consistently evolving. All the way in which again in 2021, the devs launched a brand new stat known as Legendary Potential, which has an opportunity of showing on Distinctive gadgets.
Legendary Potential could appear complicated, however we’ve obtained all the main points you should know to get your head round this mechanic.
What’s Legendary Potential in Final Epoch, defined
Legendary Potential is a stat discovered solely on Distinctive gadgets in Final Epoch. If an merchandise has the Legendary Potential stat, this implies it has the potential to be upgraded right into a Legendary merchandise.
Earlier than you get too excited, it needs to be famous you’ll be able to solely rework a novel merchandise right into a Legendary one by merging the Distinctive merchandise (the one with the Legendary Potential stat) with an Exalted merchandise of the identical kind. On high of that, you’ll be able to solely rework your Distinctive merchandise with the Legendary Potential stat within the Eternity Cache inside the Temporal Sanctum dungeon. You may technically enter the Temporal Sanctum dungeon through the marketing campaign and probably use it as a marketing campaign skip. Nonetheless, I like to recommend leaving this exercise for the late recreation, because the boss on the finish of the dungeon is kind of difficult.
Added by Patch 1.1, there’s additionally one other methodology to get Legendary gadgets. That is by the newly launched Nemesis system. In higher-level areas, your Nemesis can have Egg of the Forgotten as one of many 4 gadgets. You may substitute it with a Distinctive merchandise (that has no LP) you have already got in your stock or stash, after which empower the Nemesis two instances earlier than lastly slaying him. As soon as that’s accomplished, you’ll get both of the 2: that Distinctive now having Legendary Potential or a Legendary affix. As you’ll be able to guess, that is very a lot a chance, however early into late-game Monolith farming, it’s price a shot.
You may merge a Distinctive Glove with the Legendary Potential stat with an Exalted Glove, however you’ll be able to’t merge a Distinctive Glove with an Exalted one-handed Axe.
If that’s not difficult sufficient, not all Distinctive gadgets have Legendary Potential, and there are tiers to it. So, you could have to spend time farming for gadgets with the Legendary Potential stat and affixes you want in your character.
What’s the quantity beside Legendary Potential?
Beside the Legendary Potential stat on an merchandise, you’ll see a quantity starting from one to 4. This quantity determines how most of the Exalted merchandise’s affixes will likely be added randomly to the Legendary merchandise.
So, you probably have a Three Legendary Potential, this implies three affixes out of your Exalted merchandise will likely be added to the Legendary one. The affixes out of your Exalted gadgets don’t substitute those in your Distinctive merchandise. They’ll both improve the affixes already on the Legendary merchandise, otherwise you’ll achieve extra.
Methods to improve Legendary Potential in your Distinctive merchandise
Because the 1.2 replace, you’ll be able to improve the Legendary Potential in a Distinctive merchandise that already has no less than one LP.
If in case you have no less than one Legendary Potential however are attempting to achieve extra in your Distinctive merchandise, you’ll be able to gamble it with the Farsight Turtle Woven Echo. Nonetheless, if the gamble fails, the Distinctive will lose all Legendary Potential.
In contrast to the Nemesis methodology which solely works on Uniques with no LP, this one works on Uniques that have already got one to a few LP.
Components in getting Distinctive drops with Legendary Potential
There are primarily 4 elements that decide whether or not your Distinctive may have LP and, if it does, how a lot it is going to be. These are:
Each Distinctive has a Legendary Potential stage related to it. A better stage Distinctive means it’s much less prone to have Legendary Potential. The extent of the Zone has sway on whether or not Distinctive drops there’ll include LP. Larger-level zones usually tend to drop Uniques with LP. Corruption as much as a sure level (in my testing, it has diminishing returns after 300) will increase your likelihood of getting Legendary Potential Uniques. Reaching Rank Eight within the Circle of Fortune faction doubles the Legendary Potential likelihood of dropped Uniques.
Methods to get the perfect Exalted gadgets to slam along with your Legendary Potential Uniques
Getting a excessive LP Distinctive of your selection is just step one in your quest to get the perfect in slot Legendary merchandise. The second step is to get the perfect Exalted gadgets, ideally with Tier 7 affixes, that you simply wish to slam onto your Distinctive.
To have the perfect likelihood at getting your Exalted merchandise of desires, listed here are the elements you should be aware:
You want to be in areas above Degree 90 for Tier 7 Exalted gadgets to drop. Larger corruption means extra probabilities at juiced-up Exalted gadgets. Circle of Fortune prophecies can web you excessive portions of Exalted gadgets. So, extra probabilities of getting the one you’re after. If you’re on the Service provider’s Guild, nevertheless, you’ll be able to merely purchase your Exalted of selection with gold. The Weaver Tree from The Woven Faction, added by way of Patch 1.2, offers you a number of strategies to up the drop charges of Exalted gadgets. Imprinting nodes are remarkably environment friendly in serving to you target-farm particular Exalted gadgets. The Lightless Arbor dungeon is an efficient place to farm plenty of Exalted gadgets after you have sufficient gold to juice the vault.
Attending to the Eternity Cache and merging two of the identical gadgets, with one being a Legendary Potential Distinctive and the opposite being Exalted, might be time-consuming. However getting a Legendary merchandise is certainly definitely worth the effort in your subsequent Final Epoch playthrough.
