Legendary items are more difficult to acquire. All legendary items can be used at level 20, but their maximum level will typically be close to the current level cap. Legendary gear is more difficult to acquire because they almost always require [[reputation]] to purchase first, and with the exception of gear from the [[Iron Banner]] and [[Trials of Osiris]], they must be purchased with [[Crucible Mark]]s or [[Vanguard Mark]]s. They have the most upgrades but also require ascendant materials to fully upgrade, making them quite expensive. Disassembling an item will yield upgrade materials as well as ascendant materials. In addition, Legendary items acquired in [[Raid]]s tend to perform better than ordinary legendary items, whether its extra upgrades for weapons or higher [[light]] levels for armor. A few primary weapons will also have elemental modifiers. | Legendary items are more difficult to acquire.
