Bigpoppanev Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Got a question about the Legacy weapons and armor vendors. I bought a Sith Inquis, double bladed 14 light saber for an alt. It was a level 14 weapon, I noticed as I leveled with him to 20, the weapon didn't get any better(it didn't level with him). I also noticed that it said on it, sith inquisitor only. Unless I missed something crucial here(and if I did correct me), but what is the point of wasting all this time with legacy gear if for one, it doesn't level with you and in a few levels you'll get better planetside commendation vendor gear. And two i can't send that saber to say a Jedi Shadow alt, since its gated to inquisitor only, and a sorc couldn't use a double saber, why would I level another Assasin? I assumed the legacy gear would be similar to heirloom gear in WoW, something to make leveling and playing alts a little lighter on the wallet of the main. But with commendation vendors, i just don't see the point in ever trying to get anymore. Am i missing something here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downertool Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I was wondering the same thing. Why would I want this if its so much easier to get better items. Its not moddable, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, its not moddable. the best I could figure is that the armor did look unique, maybe its for the RP'ers or collectors. I truly hope I am missing something about this, otherwise i am starting to think that this patch should have been allowed to bake for a few more months....

Bigpoppanev Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 Gonna bump this so hopefully someone who knows more about this then me can fill me in. maybe even a MOD? Am i doing something wrong with this? Do i have to go somewhere or do something to get this to level up with my guy, or am I correct with my assumption?

Kabaal Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 They don't level with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swanea Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 The armor you can level up with the mods, but as far as I've seen, all the weapons are a static weapon. Which is very silly. You'd think they'd make the legacy weapons look different and be moddable. whatevs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwan Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 You'll get new tokens once your alt finishes chapter 1 of his story. You can mail those then to yet another alt (your consular for example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigpoppanev Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 They don't level with you. So they are useless save for the collectors, fashionistas and RP'ers:( Ahh well, back to commendation gear. Thanks for filling me in all/. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can mail those then to yet another alt (your consular for example). That I did not know, the weapon definitely sucks, but with the armor being moddable, that is a pretty cool setup. Hopefully they will make the weapon be moddable. Thanks for alerting me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serbegorn Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Re-read the patch notes... but replace the word "legacy" with the phrase "utterly useless" and enlightenment will follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kailthir Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 AT level 30 when i got my legacy unlocked, it fave me some box. It said something to the effect it was for making legacy items.

My question is.... WTH am i soposed to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyfy Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 As a pleasant side note, I did confirm that unbound items can be sent to cross faction members of your legacy, so it's not all bad. I don't know if that is working as intended but I do believe so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
