How to Get Legacy Points in WoW Forever
To get Legacy Points in WoW Forever, complete Legacy Challenges by reaching class leveling milestones, improving crafting professions, completing dungeon groups, exploring Azeroth, or participating in raids and PvP. Each completed challenge awards one Legacy Point toward your account-wide progression.
Some of the main ways to earn points include:
- Reach levels 25, 45, and 60 for the first time with each class.
- Raise individual crafting professions to skill 150, 225, and 300.
- Complete designated groups of dungeons.
- Finish exploration, questline, and reputation challenges.
- Reach PvP ranks, battleground reputation milestones, and seasonal objectives.
- Complete eligible raid challenges.
Legacy Points are earned across your account rather than separately for every character. Repeating a completed class milestone on another character of the same class doesn't award the same point again.
What Are the Easiest Legacy Points to Earn?
For early progression, I recommend focusing on crafting professions and level 25 class milestones before tackling longer reputation grinds or higher-level PvP objectives.
Level Crafting Professions to 150
One practical approach is to raise each of the six main crafting professions to skill 150:
- Alchemy
- Blacksmithing
- Enchanting
- Engineering
- Leatherworking
- Tailoring
Each profession's first milestone provides one Legacy Point, giving you six points if you complete all six.
Gathering professions don't provide equivalent Legacy Challenges, but Mining, Herbalism, and Skinning can help supply the materials or gold needed to level crafting professions.
You can also pursue the higher crafting milestones at 225 and 300, although these require further investment.
Level Different Classes to 25
Every class has a first-time level 25 challenge worth one Legacy Point. Additional points become available when that class reaches levels 45 and 60.
If you already intend to play several characters, reaching level 25 on different classes is a natural way to build your Legacy total.
This is especially useful because you don't need to take every alternate character all the way to level 60 to earn its first point.
Complete the First Dungeon Challenge
The Novice Spelunker challenge provides another early Legacy Point for completing the required group of six introductory dungeons.
The challenge includes a choice between Ragefire Chasm and Hall of Thanes as part of the dungeon group.
This is a useful objective to work toward while leveling, particularly if you're already running dungeons for experience and equipment.
How to Earn Your First 10 or 15 Legacy Points
If you want a concrete target, combining crafting, class leveling, and the first dungeon challenge gives you a clear progression plan.
| Objective | Legacy Points |
|---|---|
| Get six crafting professions to 150 | 6 |
| Complete Novice Spelunker | 1 |
| Reach level 25 on three different classes | 3 |
| Total | 10 |
For 15 Legacy Points, complete the same six profession milestones and dungeon challenge, then reach level 25 on eight different classes instead of three.
These are structured routes, not instant farming methods. Leveling multiple professions and characters still takes considerable time, and other challenges may fit your existing playstyle better.
How to Make the Grind More Efficient
Start gathering crafting materials as you level your first character. You can use those resources for profession milestones or sell extras to purchase materials you don't have.
Keeping supplies on a bank character can also make switching between crafting professions easier.
If your main goal is to reach 10 Legacy Points, I'd focus on completing the first crafting milestones before investing in more demanding level 45 or 60 class challenges.
How Do Legacy Points Work?
Are Legacy Points Account-Wide?
Yes. Legacy Challenges contribute to account-wide progression. However, each character can allocate its earned Legacy Points differently across the Adventure, Resourcefulness, and Professions perk trees.
At launch, you can spend up to 16 Legacy Points per character, even if your account has earned more points in total.
Can You Reset Legacy Points?
Yes. You can reset your Legacy Point allocation through a class trainer. The supplied information lists a reset cost of 10, although it doesn't establish whether repeated resets become more expensive.
Do Extra Legacy Points Still Matter After 16?
Yes. Even though the initial perk allocation is capped at 16 points, your total earned points also contribute toward the Legacy reward track.
Reported reward milestones include 15, 25, 40, and 55 points, with cosmetic rewards claimable from Innkeeper Wiley in Ratchet.
For most players, the simplest starting strategy is to build Legacy Points through crafting milestones, level 25 class challenges, and introductory dungeons. These provide a manageable route into the system without immediately committing to raids, high PvP ranks, or lengthy reputation objectives.
