Notes

• You can get a maximum total of 31 Legendary Insights per week.
  • 15 from Heart of Thorns raid encounters.
  • 10 from Path of Fire raid encounters.
  • 5 from End of Dragons Challenge Mote strike missions, including season 1's Old Lion's Court.
  • 1 from the Weekly Cantha Strikes achievement.
• The original description, prior to the July 19 2022 game update, was "Used in the creation of legendary armor at the Mystic Forge."
  • Since the same game update, Legendary Insights replaced Legendary Divinations in every Path of Fire raid container and boss loot. Any remaining LD might be converted to LI either via a double-click or through a raid vendor.

Trivia

• Assault Knights' Magnificent Coffer awards the only Legendary Insight available to people without expansions. However, legendary equipment crafting is still locked behind owning them.
