Your First Session

You've finished First Steps — your character is set up, you grabbed starter gear, and !hunt dropped you at Reisenjima Henge. This page is what comes next: the actual rhythm of playing Legendary, and the systems that quietly reward you just for showing up.

If you remember only one thing: almost everything on Legendary runs on Hunt Marks. You earn them by killing NMs in the Hunting League, and you spend them on seals, gear, and rank unlocks. Learn that one loop and the rest falls into place.

The core loop

!buff        →  sustain (Refresh / Regen / Regain)
pop an NM    →  Hunt: Spawner
kill it      →  earn Hunt Marks
spend marks  →  seals, gear, next rank
rank up      →  repeat — tougher NMs pay more

That's the whole game in five beats. Everything else on this page just makes the loop faster or more rewarding.

Your first 30 minutes at Henge

You arrived via !hunt. Before you swing at anything:

!buff

This grants Refresh, Regen, Regain, and your zone's regional buff (Signet / Sanction / Sigil / Ionis) — free sustain that makes solo hunting comfortable. Recast it whenever it wears off or you change zones.

Then work the loop using the two NPCs standing side-by-side where you landed:

  1. Talk to Hunt: Hub — your rank board. It shows your current Hunting League rank, your Hunt Marks balance, and the reward shop. (Quick balance check anytime with !marks.)
  2. Talk to Hunt: Spawner — pop a Rank I NM: Leaping Lizzy, Valkurm Emperor, or Tom Tit Tat. It appears right in front of you — no map navigation, no cooldown.
  3. Kill it. You must land the killing blow (or be credited as the killer). Each Rank I kill pays 5 Hunt Marks, and your very first kill also fires the First Hunt achievement for a bonus +50.
  4. Spend at the Hub. You were handed 100 Hunt Marks at character creation — a real head start. Convert some into Seals at the reward shop and take them to the Armor & Weapons vendors at Henge for your first real upgrade. (Full breakdown: Gear Vendors.)
  5. Keep popping. Rack up marks, return to Hunt: Hub, and unlock Rank II for 12 marks. Each rank opens a tougher NM roster that pays more per kill — 5 at Rank I climbing to 65 at Rank V.

Not sure what you need for the next rank? Ask the game directly:

!tier

It shows your current tier, the NMs available to you, and exactly what's required to rank up. For the full ladder — all five ranks, every NM, the reward shop — see the Hunting League page.

Don't underestimate the starters

Leaping Lizzy is buffed well beyond its retail stats (+1000 ATT, +200 DEF). The Rank I NMs are a real fight on fresh gear — that's what your starter marks and !buff are for.

Rewards just for showing up

Legendary front-loads its generosity. You don't have to grind for hours to feel progress — Hunt Marks land in your lap for logging in and for hitting milestones:

When Reward
Create your character +100 Hunt Marks (starter stipend)
First login each day (UTC) +10 Hunt Marks
7 days logged in a row +50 Hunt Marks
14 days in a row +100 Hunt Marks
30 days in a row +200 Hunt Marks
Your 1st NM kill +50 — First Hunt
Your 10th NM kill +100 — Ten Hunts In
Your 100th NM kill +300 + the Desert Hunter title
Your 1,000th NM kill +1,000 + the Hero Among Heroes title

Login streaks reset if you skip a UTC day, so a quick daily login keeps them alive. There are plenty more milestones beyond the ones above — first kill at each tier, lifetime-marks landmarks, dungeon clears — and you can see the whole list, earned and unearned, with:

!achievements

Titles are yours to display

Achievement titles unlock for display without being forced on. Pick when to show one with /title.

The weekly rhythm

Once the core loop clicks, two rotating boards give you a reason to come back beyond raw marks:

  • Weekly Hunt Board — five objectives rolled fresh each week. Complete them for bonus marks and a lifetime "Weekly Hunter" sweep counter. Track it with !weekly. (Details: Weekly Hunt Board.)
  • Featured Hunts — one NM per tier is featured each week and pays 2× base marks on your first kill of the week. See them with !featured.
  • Bonus Dungeon — one dungeon each week awards 2× Infamy on the first clear. Find this week's with !bonus_dungeon.
  • Daily Board — lighter objectives that refresh every daily reset.

Two commands roll up everything time-sensitive:

!week     # your weekly objectives at a glance
!time     # server time + hours to daily reset, days to weekly reset

Resets land daily at 00:00 UTC and weekly on Monday 00:00 UTC.

Commands worth memorizing

You don't need to learn every command — these are the ones a new hunter actually reaches for:

Command What it does
!hunt Warp to Reisenjima Henge (the Hunting League)
!buff Refresh / Regen / Regain + your regional buff
!marks Hunt Marks balance — spendable and lifetime
!tier Current tier + exactly what's needed to rank up
!progress One-screen summary across every system
!nms NM Encyclopedia — what you've killed, what's left
!achievements Every milestone, earned and unearned
!week / !weekly Weekly objectives and board progress
!featured / !bonus_dungeon This week's 2× bonuses
!lfg Broadcast "looking for group" server-wide
!who Who's online, ranked by tier
!help The full custom-command list

Forgot one mid-session? !help prints them all. The complete reference lives on the Player Commands page.

Where you're headed

The Hunting League is the spine, but it isn't the whole skeleton. As you climb, these open up:

To see your own trajectory, your character gets a public profile with a personalized "recommended next step." Browse the Player Profiles list and click your name — it appears after your first stats sync.

Stuck or solo? Join Discord

The fastest way to find a group, ask a question, or report something broken is the Discord server. Use !lfg in-game to ping for a group, and check the live Server Status page to see who's on before you log in.

Welcome to the hunt.
