was talkin to dev about Lengendary Items and got DCd for 2nd time in a row, is a sign i need to go to bed, but before i do, thought i'd finish off what i was talkin abot in a handly lil post ofr everyone for those who dont know.
Legendary Items, weapons and class items (LIs for short) are customizable and levelable items your characters can equip and use.
customizable via a relic system in which you slot relics and runes to enhance stats. LIs can also be deconstructed (decon/deconned for short) and made into relics and other things including runes containing IXP (Item XP- experience specifically to levle up your LI) and legendary shards (used in the crafting of player crafted LIs)
When it comes to deconning LIs for relics, unless it is an LI for a different class than your character (thereby giving you no choice but to sell it or decon it), you should always level it up- whether you intend to use it or not.
For starters, keeping all 6 LI slots filled with a legendary for you class will enhance the total IXP you get towards each one- helping them to level slightly faster. As well, it's handy to be leveling up potential replacements for your current using ones.
But if you intend only to decon them, here is why you should still level them up and to what level ranges is worthwhile to lvl them up to...
for starters, deconning a base lvl 1 LI gets only a single relic (unless you crit on the decon). from lvls 2-10 you get a random amount of relics in return, usually 3 to 5... from 11-20 you will get an IXP rune and a larger assortment of random relics, your chances of getting a legendary shard are slightly increased as well...
from each successive 'tier'- lvls 21 to 30, 31 to 40, 41 to 49, and the maxed out lvl 50... you get a larger IXP rune and larger assortment of random relics, you also get relics of higher tiers to work with and a very slightly increased chance to get legendary shard(s) as well
so, if you wanna churn out some relics relatively quickly, my recommendations is to equip a buncha crap LIs i nyour extra slots, run the solo 'IXP' instances in Dolven-view for ixp titles rewards, and decon them when they get to certain levels
if you got a 'shit-ton' of LIs handy, what i do is run the instance with fresh LIs, then BEFORE turning in for the added ixp, go decon your crap ones... if for example you did Mithril SLaves instance, a fresh lvl 1 LI at the end of that should be approx lvl 4 (if your lvl 60).. go decon them each for an avg of 3-5 relics, THEN equip NEW fresh LIs and go turn in the quest- the ixp reward should bump them up to like lvl 4 or 5 from fresh, iirc (been a little while since i done it)
then rinse and repeat the process with each instance with a fresh batch of LIs for each run if you got enough to go around like that.
if not, stick the with same one ones through and you will get them to lvl 11 easy with the running of 2 instances, you might get lucky and they prove to have potential, or you can just decon them for the bonus ixp rune and extra and higher tier relics you'll get at 11+
and if you only got the one set, run em thru all the instances and get them up to 21+ and then decon them
there is many ways to do it and all are valid.
and there is more to it than this too. but i need sleep. i'll input more later.
gnight folks!
