Borderlands has several Legendary items. A legendary weapon is a weapon with a red text effect, usually with an yellow, orange or dark orange coloration. Unlike Unique items, Legendary items can spawn at any time, and be acquired anywhere. Legendary items don't have any restrictions on their parts, provided generic rules are respected. There are no Legendary shields.

About Legendary Items Edit

• Each manufacturer has one (and exactly one) Legendary weapon for each weapon type it manufactures.

• Orange weapons with inherent elemental properties are especially strong because they provide the elemental effects with no loss of damage rating (or sometimes even an increase), unlike normal elemental accessory parts that reduce damage by up to 40% in exchange for elemental properties. This, however, only applies to orange weapons that inherently possess specific element like the Atlas Ogre or Maliwan Hellfire. Orange weapons that do not inherently come in a specific element can occasionally be randomly generated with various elemental accessories, but these will result in a reduced base damage rating, as normal.

Pearlescent Items Edit

Pearlescent items are a cross between unique items and super-legendary items. Please see the Pearlescent article for more information.
