The purpose of this page is to help you pick the right legendary powers (and item slots for them) for your character, depending on the content you are interested in.
Vengeance Demon Hunter Legendaries
Legendaries are special equipment that has been empowered by the Runecarver inside of Torghast. Legendaries are broken down into spec-specific Legendaries that only affect Vengeance, and class-specific ones that affect generic Demon Hunter abilities.
Starting in Dragonflight Legendary Powers are only going to be active in Shadowlands content. Further should a Legendary Power be part of the new Talent Trees the Talent version will overwrite the Legendary Power, making the effect of the Legendary deactivate.
