How to get Legendary Weapons

Legendary weapons in Borderlands 3 are rare weapons that each manufacturer has at least one for each weapon type it manufactures. These weapons have an orange coloration on their item card and can spawn at any time, can usually be acquired anywhere, and do not have any restrictions on their parts, provided generic rules are respected. These weapons also possess elemental properties that are especially strong because they provide the elemental effects with no loss of damage rating. This Where to Find Legendary Weapons guide will tell you where to get hold of these weapons.
