Top 10 Worst Legion Legendaries (World of Warcraft)

Published 2021-11-12
During legion it was possible to get legendary items from doing activities such as raiding, mythic+, emissary caches, and so on. Players were guaranteed to get at least one legendary during their time playing legion, with this rate being substantially increased as the expansion was coming to a close. Each one had its own use in a possibly niche way, but some were just far worse than anything else in that category.

    Man, I miss Legion so much. I was so sad when it ended. Wish we could one day have an expansion as great as Legion again someday. An expansion filled to the BRIM with amazing soundtracks, variety in zones and stories and themes, and using more of the world than just the new landmass that is added during a new expansion.
  • @corksterx1
    I just loved Legion so much. I could not possibly care less that it had its own issues - it was just so insanely fun from the very beginning to the very end.
  • @HeitorDeMarchi
    I miss Legion so much, since I started at MoP, Legion is, by far, the best expansion I've played at the time Also, my first legendary is in the list, Cinidaria, for my Demon Hunter and yes, it was useless lol
  • @DANILKA97
    Wasn't the wisp/owl thing so overpowered, you could abuse it with class like monk to speedrun a dungeon in a few seconds and literally boost people while being underleveled?
  • There's a point missing towards #6, Ekowraith for restoration druids. Having improved Ysera's was actually helpful because of our tier set bonus - which if I recall correctly triggered a 400% tickrate on Ysera's after using Wild growth. Not only was this a smartheal, it was mana efficient as hell, considering there was an atonement talent for resto druids. You could pull off pretty insane healing numbers by using Wrath + Wild growth and nothing else, while still being full mana.
  • @EugenikusPro
    The boots from number 10 were a total must for goldfarmers, as it speed up open-world farming by a lot as well as allowing people to farm dungeons a lot quicker. Plus, the flying effect was extremely useful if you weren't a druid and doing an open world farm. So, definitely not the worst legendary. Not even close.

    Ekowraith was insane on my transmog runs. When paired with Luffa Wrappings it gave me a 25 yard thrash. Add to that bear tartare and I pretty much sprinted to every single boss while soloing classic raids.
  • @osw9897
    U got it so wrong with the eye of the twisting nether. Literally every top 10 enh shaman on warcraftlogs during legion used it with smoldering heart.
  • I don't agree with the Eye of the Twisting Nether for shamans. It was actually really good if I remember correctly. I really enjoy the icefury build for elemental. 4.5% overall for a legendary effect seems pretty solid.
  • @markriley1999
    Most of these I can understand but Ekowraith was one of, if not THE best legendary for Guardian Druids. The damage reduction was some of the highest damage reduction from legendaries, plus it had a load of stats as it was the chest slot. On progress and in situations where you need damage reduction it was my go to!
  • Ekowraith actually had a ton of use for Guardian druid's, at least in the Mythic+ scene. I remember using it with Balance affinity and the Luffa's on Necrotic weeks to increase the range on Thrash to around 17 yards (keeping in mind, thrash had a slow component) and just kite mobs.
  • @avenged2010
    Eye of the twisting nether was BiS with the meta hailstorm build at the start of Legion, but became somewhat obsolete by the end of Legion. It was admittedly a boring legendary, but I don't think it deserved to make this list.
  • @LadyTsunade777
    6:26 Having not played Shaman much in Legion, I didn't know this Legiondary existed, but it is a literal direct reference to the character Akainu from One Piece, who has the ability to create, control, manipulate, and turn his body into magma; and he is one of the top members of the Marine Corps, the One Piece world's law enforcement.
  • @Scrufflelump
    What, no Sephuz' Secret? I got joked on for getting that as my first legendary on my DK. At least until they buffed the hell out of it and it became one of the best ones. :D
  • @g-lojr5455
    Ekowraith had an interesting combo with the tier set I managed to get for resto. The 4 set caused Ysera's gift to heal every second. Healing yourself or a hurt teamate fpr 7% hath a second every time you case Wild Growth was actually pretty nice and gave some helpful smart healing. Prydaz was nice for always being at full health during small raid damage so you could always be smart healing people with it. It wasn't as great as the soul of the archdruid ring but it was still fun to use
  • "High level keys" shows footage from a 5. This is a really cool video as always, Hiru
  • When you inevitably make the top 10 legiondaries video, please consider the Drinking Horn Cover for WW monks. Combo points spent inside of Storm, Earth, and Fire extended its duration. Super awesome, rewarding, super fun!
  • @docmedecal
    Pretty good takes for the most part, although some of these were pretty decent for tanking. Like Ekowraith for M+ on guardian was really solid (which I know is touched on a little) but Cinidaria was really nice on Brewmaster, not BiS for sure, but arguably still good with two legendaries and for a buff to DPS since you're initiating the pull. Also, to echo other comments, Eye of the Twisting Nether was a very specific build, but one of the best for Enhancement shaman.
  • @waawaaaa
    As a fire mage in legion I'd like to add Norgannon's Foresight (all cloth classes could use), if you stood still for 6 seconds it let you cast while moving for 4 seconds, which as a fire mage we have scorch and additionally as a mage we have shimmer that lets us blink and still cast. On top of that it originally didnt have crit which in legion crit was a fire mages best stat with no competition.
  • @samuelbanks8499
    the wisp boots were my favorite in legion for one thing: Ganking. Redridge mountains as a rouge, you'd vanish like 5 alliance when they get on their mains and then dash away, a second later you're outta there as a wisp. many good memories. And no, I don't gank because im sad. I do it because I think hatemail is funny and I like world pvp
