To start off – I haven’t yet gotten a legendary weapon, but after seeing this I began to wonder — what’s the point of having one as an engineer that uses primarily kits?

A kit replaces the primary weapon with a bundle, it works great and all, but legendary weapons are art-weapons, meant to show off everything you’ve achieved in the game and if you don’t have it shown 90% of the time, because you’re using a kit, then that’s 200SP and a ton of time down the drain.

It would be nice if the legendary status would also carry over to kits, give grenade and mine explosions, wrench swipes, flame tongues, etc. legendary particle effects based on the legendary equipped, give the kit it self legendary makeovers and maybe have the legendary in a holster while using the kit (the way the rifle is holstered would have to be adjusted to be vertical, instead of isometric, for obvious reasons).

It’s not necessary immediately, but as kit-based engineers progress forward, they’ll eventually hit legendaries and will be disappointed — something to keep in mind for the future.
