What Does the Legendary Mechanism in Shadowlands Do?
Legendaries can be crafted by max-level Shadowlands players at the Runecarver, which is accessed by Torghast progression. Legendary abilities, which are unlocked by gathering Memory of the Runecarver recipes from Shadowlands material such as prestige, Mythic+, and raiding, can then be used to customize these crafted legendaries.
Legendary abilities greatly alter your character’s gameplay, but you must select carefully for you can only equip one legendary at a time, and each legendary involves the crafting and upgrading of a new and uncommon currency, Soul Ash.

Which Shadowlands Legendary is the best?
Via the latest Runecarving method, Shadowlands Legendary powers give your character powerful gameplay results. Since your crafted Shadowlands legendary will be the most valuable piece of gear in the expansion, offering major performance bonuses, choosing the right legendary to craft and investing your Soul Ash wisely is vital.
For Shadowlands material, our class writers have recommended the best legendary powers and item slots, as well as highlighting which legendaries aren’t worth crafting. Bear in mind that Shadowlands is still being fine-tuned, so things could shift at any moment.Often, bear in mind that “best” can be somewhat arbitrary and, in many ways, a toss-up.

The Runecarver
To begin, you must first unlock the Runecarver. The Runecarver is unlocked during the Torghast introductory questline.
Note: The Runecarver’s Memory Legendary recipes can only be obtained if the Runecarver is unlocked.
After pledging yourself to a Covenant at level 60, you will be given a questline that will take you to The Maw, introduce you to the quests and geography, and encourage you to join Torghast. You’ll also meet the Runecarver and gain access to the chamber.
A gateway to Torghast will become accessible at the back portion of Ve’nari Refuge in The Maw after you’ve finished the questline. Apart from finishing the questline, there are no prerequisites for entering Torghast. Torghast is not restricted by keys, and there is no object that must be purchased to gain access. To get to the Runecarver’s Chamber, simply step through the portal and turn right.

Recipes from the Memory of the Runecarver – Legendary Power Drop Sources
To craft Shadowlands Legendaries at the Runecarver, you’ll need recipes from the Memories of the Runecarver. They can only be accessed by unique means, such as raid or dungeon boss drops.
Legendary Powers have been applied to the Adventure Guide in the same manner as Legion’s Legendaries have been. You will see all the Legendaries for your class and spec in the Powers page, as well as what slot they can be crafted on and where the Memory of the Runecarver recipe will drop.

Making Legendary Armor
Rather than working to obtain a piece of Legendary gear, you can work to obtain items and resources that will enable you to build a piece of Legendary gear by applying a Legendary Power to an existing piece of gear. Blizzard is taking inspiration for these Legendary Powers from previous Legendary Objects, Tier Packs, and abilities and talents that have been withdrawn, as well as coming up with new ideas. Torghast Anima Powers are reincarnated in certain Legendary Powers.
You’ll need the following items to make your Legendary Gear Piece:

2 Separate State Missives 1 Base Object of the required level and slot sort (crafted by Scribes)

A quantity of Soul Ash
Learned and in your set for a Legendary Power that suits the slot form of the Base Item is the Memory of the Runecarver Legendary Recipe.

Foundation Made Objects
Legendary Items are made from blank models called Base Items. Foundation Pieces would be made by Blacksmiths, Jewelcrafters, Leatherworkers, and Tailors. Playing max level material yields base object recipes. Base Items are not Soulbound until produced and can be exchanged, shipped, and purchased/sold on the Auction House. Bear in mind that each Legendary Power can only be used on certain armor slots when getting your Base Item.
Messages
Missives, the components that determine which stats your Legendary piece would have, can be created by Scribes. Two Missives are required for each Legendary.
Every Legendary item requires components from a Leatherworker, a Tailor, a Blacksmith, or a Jeweler, as well as a Scribe and an Enchanter; Legendary pieces will be in high demand throughout the expansion.
Ash of the Soul
Soul Ash is a form of currency that you’ll need to make your Iconic piece. The more Soul Ash you need, the higher your Rank Base Item is. Completing Layers in Torghast will give you Soul Ash.
The Runecarver’s Memory
For the Legendary Power that you want on your piece, you’ll need the Memory of the Runecarver Legendary Recipe. Completing Covenant content, running Raid and Dungeon content, like Torghast, and completing PvP and World content are some of the ways to get these.

Legendary Abilities
Memory of the Runecarver recipes grant three different kinds of Legendary Powers:
Any Class or Spec may use it.
Members in a particular Class may use a Class.
Members with a certain Spec within the Class may use the Spec.
