What classes have gotten the fewest legendary weapons thoughout WoW

Aside from the newer classes what ones have gotten the absolute fewest legendary weapons throughout WoW?

Do Druids have any?

We’re discounting all Legiondaries and Shadowlands items correct?

Evokers probably :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Hmm maybe priest?

Are you specifically referring to class specific ones?

Are we including Pseudolegendaries (gavel, the jackhammer, etc)

According to this list, it is a tie between Warlocks, Mages, and Evokers. One staff and one server-wide spam message respectively for evokers respectively the two caster-folks.

Edit: Nevermind, Evokers are the only ones with just the singular lone legendary. The Wowhead guide writer is just wrong about Atiesh.

Monk or DH. Only cloaks, Legion or SL-style legendaries have been made available to them.

Two staves Atiesh and the Firelands one

Like, a class specific legendary weapon? Or just any Legendary weapon?

If we’re only talking class specific, I think Hunters, Rogues, and Evokers are the only ones to get a Legendary weapon that only they can use.

If we’re just talking a Legendary weapon in general… I think it’s pretty even across the board. Unless we’re specifically saying - “Gotten a legendary when it was current content” - then I’d say DH and Monk haven’t gotten any Legendary weapon.

None that are specifically Druid-only. But they had Atiesh, Vala’nyr, and Tarecgosa’s Rest in the past. They could equip Sulfuras, but I don’t think any guild ever did that.

Hypothetically, could a time traveling evoker equip Atesh?

No, it was class restricted and had different effects based on the class

According to the list Atiesh is no longer for Warlocks/Mages so… eh.

Means you can count it in two different ways, one with a three-way tie and one where Evokers have the fewest number of legendaries with just the single one.

Edit: Nevermind, Wowhead just lists each one as a separate item with no “unifying” item across all three. So the Guide-writer is just flat out wrong. Evokers are the only ones with just one legendary.

Fun fact, the Bow from Sunwell was a dps loss for Hunters. Since the bow didn’t use ammo, a % of dmg was lost because ammo was 1/5th of the damage so the bow went to rogues LOL.

At least it looks nice. :sweat_smile:

Can warriors and rogues use them in TW?

WoD was a ring. One Ring to rule them all.

But it’s lost now…

That’s actually pretty funny. I didn’t play anything but a Warrior until Cataclysm.

Think so. Just cant mog them.

And yeah, forgot the ring. I took half that expansion off

In general melee has tended to do fairly well out of legendaries. Casters… less well.
