If/when can we equip a second legendary?

I’m just hoping the alt tints are somehow accessible I’m eyeing the red and black/greenish Umbrahide shoulders and gauntlet tints…

But then he will be gone and we cannot augment our leggos anymore and the fancy instanced room will be empty.

Whelp since all the wowhead guide spoke about crafting order and I didn’t see talk about the limit, I noobed out and made a second one instead of upgrading this week.

O well.

It wasn’t laid out in Legion too.
I suspect it’ll PROBABLY let you equip one more in like a years time. For now I think they may just want you equipping one for as to not lock in slots too much.

By the end you’ll I think be able to wear more legendaries to beat that end boss baddie that needs all the help of legendaries to beat it.

this is one of my gripes. the legendary plate “set”(that you cant relaly collect/transmog/wear all at once is pretty cool looking but apparently we’ll never get to wear it as a set? weird to me.

Call me crazy, but the runecarver is actually scarier than the jailer.

When he smashed that first legendary for me, I got FFX Seymour’s Aeon vibes…ironically called Anima

I mean I was about to craft my second legendary soon because ya know every guide says to craft two legendaries. Even pathing out when to upgrade to 4.

But thank god I saw this thread.

I plan on making at least one other legendary just to play with. They’re not permanently affixed to your character.

Or multi role…

I suspect they will add ranks for 9.2 and the final patch might let you equip 2 or just add more ranks (or both).

Definitely more ranks though, as I doubt they would let your legendary fall behind raid ilvl gear.

I just wasted several hundred thousand gold on missives and grim veiled items thinking you can wear multiple legendaries at the same time. just when i started thinking this was one of the better WoW expansions blizzard lets me down again. whats the point of having a million different powers if you can only use one at a time. especially if you wanted to do multiple specs. so dumb.

You’re not alone. I did the same thing. So frustrating!

What they will do is change the currency or increase costs 10x in 9.1 to upgrade beyond the rank 4 ilvl.

If you run multiple specs then you’d likely want to swap legendaries, anyway.

thats the only way the system kind of makes sense. i tend to only play one spec.

Great theory!

38

I just did that myself. Had no idea I couldn’t equip a 2nd. Sad days… why even run Torghast?

  1. That’s on you for not checking it beforehand. On the bright side, you’re just better prepared for when we can equip multiple legendaries.

  2. The point of having multiple legendaries is that many of them are situational. You’ll often want a different legendary for different scenarios, like having one for PvP, one for Raid/M+, one for off-specs and so on.
