How the Legacy System works
The Legacy System is account-wide horizontal progression. It focuses on exploring everything the game has to offer rather than on power alone, and has three parts: Legacy Challenges, Legacy Perks and Legacy Rewards. You don't need alts to benefit: every advantage can be unlocked on a single character.[1]
Unlocking it
It opens as soon as you earn your first Legacy Point. For most players that's when their first character reaches level 25, but reaching 150 in a non-gathering primary tradeskill or exploring the entire world map also unlocks it. Then open it with the shield-shaped Legacy icon on the menu or the default hotkey Y.[1]
Legacy Points
There are 65 Legacy Challenges in six categories: Classes 27, Tradeskills 18, Player vs. Player 12, Adventure 2, Dungeons 3 and Raids 3. Each one gives 1 point. Points are shared by your whole Battle.net account and can be used by all your non-Hardcore characters, whatever their ruleset (Normal, PvP or RP).[1][2]
16 points per character
Each character spends the account's points on its own perks, and one character's choices don't affect any other, so each can specialize in different activities. At launch, though, a character can spend at most 16 points. The cap keeps new players from falling too far behind and means you can fill it without creating alts.
One character can earn 3 points from leveling, up to 6 from tradeskills, 12 from PvP, 2 from Adventure and 6 from Dungeons and Raids: up to 29 in total. So the 16-point cap can be reached without a second character.[1]
Three perk trees
Perks are split into three talent trees: Professions, Adventure and Resourcefulness. Professions covers skill-ups, gathering, vendor prices, cooking and fishing; Adventure covers rested experience, flight paths, the level you start earning talent points and camping features; Resourcefulness covers food buffs, running back after death, durability, Honor, reputation and class reagents.[1]
Hardcore
The Legacy System isn't available in Hardcore at launch. When it arrives there, challenges completed in other rulesets won't show up in Hardcore, but challenges completed in Hardcore will count in every other ruleset. PvP challenges can't be done in Hardcore, so 12 new Hardcore-specific Legacy Challenges are planned.[1]
What's next
New Legacy Challenges are planned with every content release, along with new perks, in the existing trees for now and in new trees later. As more points become available, the reward track will grow too. Whether the per-character cap will change hasn't been announced.[1]
FAQ
When does the Legacy System unlock?
As soon as you earn your first Legacy Point, usually when your first character reaches level 25. Reaching 150 in a non-gathering primary tradeskill or exploring the entire world map also unlocks it. Open it with Y.[1]
How many Legacy Points can I earn and spend?
Completing all 65 Legacy Challenges at launch gives your account 65 points, but each character can spend only 16 of them on perks. One character alone can earn up to 29, so you can reach 16 without alts.[1]
Can each character pick different perks?
Yes. Legacy Points are shared by the whole account, but each character picks its own perks, and one character's choices don't affect another.[1]
Do Hardcore characters use Legacy Points?
Not at launch. When it comes to Hardcore, challenges completed in Hardcore will also count in other rulesets (not the other way round), and 12 Hardcore-only challenges will be added.[1]
What do Legacy Points unlock?
At launch: the Replica Ironforge Air Rifle (toy), the Spectral Bear Cub (pet), the Spectral Bear Tabard and the Reins of the Spectral Bear (mount). The points needed for each haven't been announced.[1]
Perk names, rank effects and challenge names come from Battle.net game data (talents and achievements); everything else comes from Blizzard's official announcements.
