Notes[edit]

  • Second-generation legendary weapons (not including Astralaria, Chuka and Champawat, HOPE, and Nevermore) require a total of 290 of its associated shard.
    • If buying materials from the Trading Post, it may be cheaper to craft Enormous Chest of Legendary Shards from off-hand weapon shards instead of directly crafting Legendary Shards for one- or two-Handed Weapons for all or part of the total 290 shards.
    • This depends on the ratio between the price of tier 5 Crafting Trophies and Mithril as well as Elder Wood, since Shards of any type require 1 Mystic Curio to craft, but the amounts of Mithril and Elder Wood vary by weapon type.
    • To determine which method is cheaper, the price comparison for 290 one-handed, two-handed, and off-hand shards are as follows:
