New First Third Age Hunter Bow | Which Legacies are good to level up?

[Aseem]

Hi Everyone,

I just received my first legendary item in game. I am a new player so I am new to the Legendary Item system. I wanted to get some input and suggestions as to which Legacies to level up. I am a level 51 Hunter. I do understand that alot of the input will depend on how I personally play the game but as a New Player I do not have a specific way of playing.

Here are the Legacies:

Weapon DPS
Major:
+1% Strength Quick Shot Slow
+3% Induction Bow Critical Multiplier
-1 Merciful Shot Cooldown
Minor:
+1% Induction Bow Damage

Relics on the Bow:
Setting: Bronze Setting of Morale
Rune: Profound Rune of Deflection

Thank you very much for all the help!

It matters little - as you say, it depends on your game.

Add points to the basic DPS
Add points to crit multi

you're unlikely to find enough points to max anything else before it's time to deconstruct that one and grab a new - the start LI goes to level 40 only

Here are the Legacies:

Weapon DPS
Major:
+1% Strength Quick Shot Slow
+3% Induction Bow Critical Multiplier
-1 Merciful Shot Cooldown
Minor:
+1% Induction Bow Damage

Relics on the Bow:
Setting: Bronze Setting of Morale
Rune: Profound Rune of Deflection

For this one, DPS first and max it out.

Major:
+1% Strength Quick Shot Slow: I never use Strength Stance so this is useless for me.
+3% Induction Bow Critical Multiplier: This one and its match, +3% Focus Bow Critical Multiplier, are my favorite Legacies. I always max these out.
-1 Merciful Shot Cooldown: This is a neat little power for one reason, it allows you to fire Merciful Shot more quickly and since I use that shot regularly, I'd max it.
Minor:
+1% Induction Bow Damage: This would be one I'd max too. Always helps to have a little extra hitting power.


Now, at level 10, 20 and 30 you'll get new Legacies. They are totally random so you can only hope for the best. Since this is your first LI, you can only get it to level 40 but at the point reforge will allow you to pick one of two Legacies to 'upgrade'. The upgrade makes the legacy cheaper. Again, all random as to which two you will get to pick from. Remember to go with a Crit first, then +damage.

Note: Personally, any power cost reduction to me is useless so I never level them.
