Fallout 76 Legendary Crafting Guide

Recommended Videos

Our Legendary Crafting Guide is here to help all players keep up with all the recent changes in Fallout 76. The latest major update — Steel Reign — added quite a few things to the game. It seems that Bethesda accepted the players’ suggestion and made a crafting system that provides a simpler way to upgrade items and allows a lot of creativity in players’ builds.

How Does Legendary Craft Work Now?

The legendary crafting system allows players to apply legendary mods to almost any item. So you can take a weapon, armor, or power armor and make it legendary using Legendary Cores and Legendary Modules. To do so, go to your crafting bench and hit the appropriate button to start crafting. From there, find the item you want to make legendary and add the mod you want to it. It is that simple. However, you still need the right crafting components.

Legendary Modules can be purchased from Purveyor Murmrgh. To find him, go to The Rusty Pick bar. You will need a gas mask to do it — there is one in the Charleston Fire Department. When it comes to Legendary Cores, you can find them in a few different ways. For all the details, check our guide on How To Get Legendary Cores In Fallout 76. Here is the total number of Legendary Cores and Legendary Modules needed:

Weapons:

  • 1 Star: 1 Legendary Core and 2 Legendary Modules
  • 2 Star: 3 Legendary Core and 3 Legendary Modules
  • 3 Star: 5 Legendary Core and 4 Legendary Module

Armor:

  • 1 Star: 1 Legendary Core and 1 Legendary Module
  • 2 Star: 3 Legendary Core and 2 Legendary Modules
  • 3 Star: 5 Legendary Core and 2 Legendary Modules

Power Armor:

  • 1 Star: 1 Legendary Core and 2 Legendary Modules
  • 2 Star: 3 Legendary Core and 3 Legendary Modules
  • 3 Star: 5 Legendary Core and 4 Legendary Modules

The developers made the Legendary Craft System to give players as many options as possible. The many items that can be created will most likely be enough to fit all existing playstyles. Steel Reign also lets players have Legendary Power Armors now, which means they can now go for aristocrat builds, food builds, bloodied builds, and more!

Fallout 76 is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One
