Legacy system
Complete challenges to earn account-wide Legacy points. Each character spends points on traits, while total points also unlock cosmetics.
How Legacy Works
1. Earn Points
Shared across your accountThe first character on your account to complete a challenge earns 1 Legacy point. At launch there are 65 challenges. The Legacy panel unlocks when your first character reaches level 25.
2. Learn Traits
Allocated separately for each characterEvery character can allocate the account's points in their own trees, up to 16 points at launch. Points spent by your warrior do not reduce those available to your mage.
3. Collect Rewards
Shared across your accountRewards depend on total points earned by the account, regardless of spending. Earning more than 16 points still matters: the final reward requires 55 points.
16 points is the spending cap per character

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get Legacy Points?
Complete the Legacy Challenge. Each completed item will earn 1 point. The challenges are divided into class, professional, dungeon, team dungeon, player battle, and adventure.
Are Legacy Points shared by all accounts?
Yes. Points are shared among all characters in the account, but each character spends them separately in their inheritance tree.
Do characters in expert mode also share points?
Only one-way interoperability: Progress saved in expert mode will be brought to other modes, and vice versa. Expert mode will not be launched until the game is launched.
Can you fill up all your specialties?
Not yet. Each character costs up to 16 points, and all challenges add up to 65 points. Blizzard plans to add new challenges and new feats in future patches, and relax the cap.
Do I have to work on a few characters?
Class challenges each class has 3 items, if only one class, this class can only get 3 of them; other types of challenges can be completed by a role.
Can [Talented Talent] increase talent points to 51?
No, the 51-point cap remains unchanged. Talent points are earned at level 9 when you hit level 1, and are advanced by one level for each additional level. Talent points are earned at level 5 when you hit level 5. Class Talent Calculator is unaffected by it.
Can I reset it if I click the wrong button?
It is not clear how much points will be retired in the game. Reset on this page only clears the current scheme; a level cannot be removed alone if it is dependent on another specialty.
Still Unclear
- Future cap.
- The launch cap is 16 points. Blizzard has said it will increase in later patches, without a date.
- Cost per rank.
- The planner counts 1 point per rank; the client data does not say how many points a rank costs.
- The six “?” nodes.
- These nodes exist in the client without names or effects and are marked for a future update.
- Respeccing.
- The client includes an error for removing a trait when doing so would leave the character with negative talent points: Talented cannot be removed in that case. Builds can therefore be changed, but the client does not show a cost.
