Legendary Items


Rules Questions


Hello guys, with 1° mythic tier, can you take three times the legendary item ability Intelligent (Intelligent, Spellcasting and Teleport)?

I ask because it says: "A mythic creature bonded to a legendary item can use a number of that item’s legendary abilities equal to or less than her tier"

So i have only one active ability (Intelligent) as my tier level, even if it is powered three times.

It's correct? :-P

Thanks

A tier 1 character’s legendary item can only have 1 legendary ability (intelligent in this case). Since an intelligent legendary item only gains special abilities when intelligent is taken subsequent times (gaining special abilities is only mentioned in the paragraph about taking the intelligence ability more than once), and there’s no way a tier 1 character could have taken intelligence more than once, the item cannot have any of the special abilities.


Yeah, no, you can't take Intelligent three times at Tier 1. Each purchase of Intelligent counts as a separate ability, so you need Tier 3 to take it three times.


I'm of the opinon that you can take Intelligent 3 times at Mythic Tier 1, but only one of the abilities selected work until you get enough Mythic Tiers to use the others.

I understand, but I just can’t read it like that.

Quote:
When a mythic creature creates a legendary item (using the legendary item universal path ability), the item can have up to three additional abilities, but no more than the number of tiers possessed by the creature bonded to it.

If a tier 1 creature bonds to it, it can’t have more than 1 ability. It doesn’t say that it gets 3 abilities but the bonded creature only gets to use one of them.


You can if you take Mythic Paragon at first tier. Then you count as 3rd tier for the ability, and can thus make three choices.

You still can't take legendary item a second time until you are for realsies 3rd tier.


Good luck. The rules for legendary items are a tragedy.
