If you want the best possible stats for your armor in Sun Haven, you’re going to want to learn how to manipulate armor rarity. Unlike tools and weapons—which are fixed—armor pieces can spawn with different rarities, each tied to specific gem icons:

• Normal (Emerald)
• Rare (Ruby)
• Epic (Sapphire)
• Legendary (Diamond)

Step-by-Step Guide to Get Legendary Armor

1. Open Your Anvil: Craft your armor through the anvil as usual. The rarity will appear immediately when the crafting queue is set.
2. Check the Rarity: Once you queue an armor piece (e.g., a Copper Helmet), check its gem icon to identify the rarity. If it’s not what you want, cancel it.
3. Requeue Until You Get Diamond: Cancel the craft and requeue it repeatedly. This will reroll the rarity. For Copper or early-game gear, you’ll often get higher rarities faster. Late-game items like Sunite armor may take longer to roll Legendary.
4. Don’t Batch Craft: Each crafting slot rolls its rarity separately, so avoid mass crafting if you’re hunting for Legendary pieces. Craft one at a time for control.
5. Use Smithing Boosts:
   • Friendship Keepsake from Lynn gives +5 to Smithing Skill. While the “Smithing” label is vague (since it shares the mining tree), equipping this may improve your odds.
   • Higher Mining Level (unconfirmed but likely) could also affect rarity outcomes.

Why It Matters

The stat boost is significant:

• Normal Gloves: 10 Defense / 50 Health / 40 Attack
• Legendary Gloves: 13 Defense / 65 Health / 52 Attack

That’s +3 Defense, +15 Health, and +12 Attack per piece!

Final Tips

• Be patient. High-end gear like Sunite Gloves might take 10-15 minutes or more to roll Legendary.
• Don’t forget to compare pieces before selling or trashing them.

Until this gets patched, it’s the most efficient way to guarantee the best armor stats in Sun Haven. Good luck smithing—and enjoy your Legendary loadout!
