Design your ideal Legendary

[Deleted]

Hey everyone, with the constant complaints and memeing about legendaries we could need something new and fresh

So why not come up with something yourself?

The point of this thread is to invite everyone to a discussion about what effects would fit on a legendary for a class/spec. Any idea is welcome and critique is very welcome. To make the thread a bit more easy to read there will be a line of text to copy here.

Dude, that autoattack bleed damage would be seriously overpowered.

[AwkwardSquirtle]

Demonology
Shadow of the Nether
(I'm not going through full stats. Give it haste as one of the secondaries. )

Your Demonic Empowerment spell grants 3 charges of Shadowy Energy, which is casts Demonic Empowerment when you summon a demon.

Get out of my dream!!!!!!! It wouldn't be bad with the numbers we have now... A bonus of 50k dps at full bleed is a nice boost but not overpowered.

Should really be limited to weapons or really rare drops.

Honestly, if you get max level titanforged item it should be legendary, as simple as that. Does it really need to have anything special? it's already of higher ilvl.

Personally I'd maybe keep the relic system and make legendary relics rare drop with 2 traits.

At this point legendary is so common there is no feel you get something special.

The ilvl and extra boost they give is enough, no need to make them OP.

[Rotted]

I love these posts when they pop up, so I like to get imaginative and come up with rule breaking ones.

Death Knight

Armageddon:
Trinket

XX Strength
XXX Crit
XXX Haste
XXX Mastery

Use: Summon an array of mindless minions to the battle. However, overtime the minions will attack anyone within melee range.

Bring down upon them the apocalypse regardless the cost

(Aka, super buffed minions with no time duration, but gradually start attacking players and npcs)

(Shadow Priest)

Forced Sacrifice
Trinket

XXX Int
XX Haste

Use: Infest a random allys mind with the shadow causing them to sacrifice themselves to empower the priest. The priest gains =/= Int to their highest primary stat + =/= all secondary stats of the sacrificed ally, in addition to one core ability of the ally. The sacrificed player may be resurrected during combat, but does not regain the lost stats.

The end justify the means, the world won't miss one Hero

Yes, quite literally you kill a random DPS character to empower yourself. It might seem op but if it targets your best DPS, can the priest make up the damage? If it kills the worst one is it worth the gain?

Demon Hunter:

Serrated Vertebrate of Gul'Dan
Ring

XXX Crit
XXX Haste

Use: Clench your fist to cut the skin and infuse your weapon with your own blood and residual fel magic of Gul'dan. Immediately enters a improved Metamorphosis form which heals for 100% of the damage dealt, while 10% of current max hp is dealt as magic damage every 2 secs. Weapon strikes also apply fel wounds which deal chaos damage over time.

One of the few remnants of Gul'Dan after his confrontation with Illidan Stormrage, taken and crafted into a jagged ring. Years after Gul'Dans defeat and there's still a eerie essence surrounding it. You're not going to wear that are you?

This one I wanted to have something that reflected a destructive nature, chaos damage seems appropriate.

I'll probably come back to this later on with a Elemental Shaman, Warlock and Balance druid

[Duckypoo]

Ret paladin


Name: Lights Gift
Item Slot: Feet
Armor: 3000
Intellect / Strength / Agility:2500 str
Stamina: 1500 stamina
Secondary Stats:1500 versatility, 1500 mastery, 2200 haste.
Equipped Effect: Judgement is now a passive aura that shocks all hostile enemies within 3 yards of the paladin and provides damage increase. Crusader strike is now on a 2 second cool down. Paladin gains water walk buff.
Use: Cast exorcism on target for 10,000 holy damage. 10 second CD

[Markulino]

I'll be posting a new legendary for each spec of the Death Knight. As I'm no expert in stat balancing I'll be just posting an idea of what secondary stats they should have. Anything that's underlined is open for discussion of "power".

Specialization: Blood
Name: Scales of Syndragosa
Item Slot: Helm
Secondary Stats: Haste > Vers
Equipped Effect: Your blood shield now prevents magic damage at half the amount of the shield.
Flavour Text: Their Pathetic Magic BETRAYYYYS THEEEM.

Why not give more magic mitigation to a tank that already has one of the best? =P

Specialization: Frost
Name: Mantle of the Frozen Wastes
Item Slot: Shoulder
Secondary Stats: Haste > Crit
Equipped Effect: Your rune of Razorice now stacks to 10. Your Frost Fever and Razorice are now permanent.
Flavour Text: Nothing can stop the cold, harsh winter.

This one should improve both ST and AoE of Frost and open the chance to use the shattering strikes talent without worrying so much about droping Razorice stacks.

Specialization: Unholy
Name: Gloves of the Conqueror
Item Slot: Gloves
Secondary Stats: Mastery > Crit
Equipped Effect: Your successive casts of Death Coil have a 5% chance of increasing the duration time of all active summons/pets/familiars (whatever all of UH ghouls and gargoyle/valkyr are called) by 3 secconds. This effect is capped at their initial duration.
Flavour Text: What is a mob to a king that has his own army at will?

This one goes sooo well with the fantasy of having an army of undead with you. Imagine haing your army ghouls alive for a second cast of Appocalypse?
