    People compete to see who can complete new content the fastest.

    (Used to be story and EQ, but now it’s just EQ)

    First 100 people to 100% heroic and master EQ get the title and a handful of rewards.

    Exploring the 2 hardest difficulty fastest makes you a LEGEND.

    Hardest Difficulty: Heroic+Master MEQ

    Summoner!!!!!!
    Are you ready to beat heroic and master?

    Why do people always click disagree, you were asking a question 😂
    The premise of the question seemed odd. Wasn’t asking HOW to do it, but that they want to do something that they don’t even know what it is.

    And Legends Run is not like some difficult opponent or quest (how do I fight xxx, or I want to tackle yyy quest). Those can be taken at leisure, trial and error, different champs/synergies, etc).

    Legends Run is realistically (unfortunately) limited to within a certain number of a group of the top players/champs every month (not for skill, but just for sheer hardest hitting champs to blow thru nodes in the fewest amount of seconds every fight), who also have the devices that can manage without delay/crashing issues, that can quickly flow thru all the sequences of a quest (select, pre-fight, win sequence, map nodes, etc) faster that other devices. And have the few hours of dedicated/uninterrupted time in order to devote to doing it.

    Ok, now maybe OP didn’t know that, and maybe thought it was just like doing a single run thru some quest (a certain path or something) for their own benefit/rewards, not necessarily competing in a race against everyone else.

    All that you wrote could have been used to give insight on what the legend title was and how to get it, which was point of thread. Instead I saw a long list of excuses why someone doesn't have it.

    And seriously, legend not even close to hard to get these days and many champs can do it now. Back when I got it, you had to do the run in under 2:55 to have a chance, now I see people with 3:30 getting it.

    There is little to no motivation for people to do repeat runs after getting it so it gets easier and easier to get as time passes.
