When did Legendary difficulty requirement change?

in General Discussion
So I opened the new side quest only to discover that I am locked from the Legendary difficulty despite being level 55. I tapped the padlock and saw this:


When did this change?
Why was there no announcement?
What is the rationale behind this new requirement?
Is it bug?
Please tell me it's a bug because I don't see a reason why you need to be Cavalier in order to do Legendary difficulty. It's not that hard

    Seems like every other month they lock it out. I'm Uncollected and completed last month's side quest

    Leg is basically the generic name for Cav difficulty, just like Epic is basically UC.

    It's probably like this to incentivize pushing for Cav. If anything, the level 55 restriction was harsher imo.

    It's not. I've been doing Legendary difficulty since mutant Island quest and this is the first time I've seen this requirement.
    I'm in school now and cannot afford the time to go push for Cav.
    Changing the requirements without any prior notice is just mean.

    Just click on it to see why you're locked out. I posted the same in your earlier post. Check it once

    If you have no problem doing Legendary then you wont have any problems going for cavalier. You have the whole month to do it.
    It's not the difficulty but the time commitment. I haven't bothered with story content since I became UC. Also, they should have announced this ahead of time

    The legendary difficulty has been on and off with requirements for a while. If your not cav I don't even know if you'll be able to do legendary with minimal items.

    LEGEND=CAVALIER
    EPIC=UNCOLLECTED
    any other difficulty = any other rank

    If you dont have the time to do both then going for Cavalier is the better choice anyway.
    18 paths to cavalier at maximum. And some lanes are really easy.

    It requirement for cav to do legendary changes every month. I suggest getting cav especially since grandmaster crystals are terrible and a waste of shards if you go for them this month.

    We went through this during the Cav difficulty testing months. This isn't anything new.

    I'm about to start Act 6. The only things that won't update immediately after I complete it are current calendars, but I'll be able to access the legendary quest and the cav crystals in the romance store (so I should save my shards). Is that correct?

    Being uncollected I was annoyed that I couldn’t get cav crystals, but I still would have gotten enough shards that it would be worth doing. Now I’m not really sure, the rewards kinda seem mediocre for the time involved.

    save your shards and push cav at the end of the month. as a new cav player i'm excited for my 4*'s and iso as well at content I don't have the roster for.
