With the Beluga Lagoon update on October 26 we’ll be introducing a new Legendary weapon, and new Legendary Soul Shields. Obtaining these will be a worthwhile achievement, so pay attention warriors.

Galaxy Weapon

The first alternate path Legendary Weapon will become available with the Beluga Lagoon update on October 26 from a chest purchasable from the Battleground Merchant. The Unrefined Galaxy Weapon Chest can be purchased for 40 Galaxy Fragments, 50 Honorary Ornaments, and 100 Frozen Stingers.

Galaxy Fragments can be obtained from:

1v1 Daily Quests

3v3 Daily Quests

6v6 Battleground Daily Quests

250 Battle Points from Battleground Merchant

Upgrading the Galaxy weapon will use existing Heroic weapons, Frozen Stingers, Honorary Ornaments, Legendary Elements, Galaxy Fragments, and gold. The current maximum upgrade level for the Galaxy weapon will be Stage 3, although further stages will be unlocked in future content updates.

Note: The Beluga Lagoon update also introduces a visual upgrade path preview for weapons and accessories in-game. You’ll be able to look at where your weapon upgrade is headed, and see the individual costs along the way.

Legendary Soul Shields

The first Legendary Soul Shields will become available with the Beluga Lagoon update, and can also be purchased from the Battleground Merchant for Galaxy Fragments once you meet the requirements. Pieces 4 and 5 require the 10 Win achievement for Whirlwind Valley; and pieces 6, 7, and 8 require the 100 Win achievement.

The way stats are distributed for Legendary Soul Shields works differently than other Soul Shields. Instead of rolling 1-3 primary stat values, and 1-3 values from a selection of secondary stats, the Legendary Soul Shields will roll a random range of two primary stats and one of three secondary stats.

You can upgrade the Legendary Soul Shields by feeding them the same piece (Piece 2 requires Piece 2, etc.), allowing you to avoid searching for that one perfect piece, and instead gives you the ability to consistently work toward their upgrades. This does not replace the fusing system, and you can still fuse Soul Shield Primers to enhance a specific stat.
