I like the concept of games using legendary weapons. They're very cool. However, I think that there should only be one of each weapon to be used. However, here's what I think should be done to balance out legendary weapons with normal weapons :
Limit 1 per server, per legendary weapon,
Stats are only slightly increased from best generic weapon of it's class.
As an example, let's say there are many legendary sword weapons. The Excalibur and the Calad Bolg, used as examples, will be similar, however, they have different special effects, different art, etc. Let's say the best generic sword in their class would be the dragon scale sword. The dragon scale sword will have... about 75 atk, while the excalibur / calad bolg has about 85 atk.
Legendary weapons should glow, as they're fucking awesome.
I'm assuming you guys will put PvP in this MMO, since a MMO without PvP is quite bland.
Legendary weapon holders will probably be PK targets, since legendary weapons are so awesome. People who kill the legendary weapon holder should be able to loot the weapon (makes hording weapons difficult).
When a legendary weapon is looted, there should be a message proclaiming so, as an owner of a legendary weapon should be known, even though the glowing weapon will show it anyway.
Just my thoughts. There's a lot more to say, but I simply like the idea of having one kind of each legendary weapon. It's kind of pointless to call a weapon "legendary" if every person and their mother can get one.
