“epic” weapons aren’t.

There is nothing “epic” about them.

They are simply higher end versions of the same stone, bone, or iron things that have been used for the entire game. Calling them “epic” cheapens the word.

Especially now that the definition has been expanded to include bog standard hardened steel.

That is a pedantic rant tho…

No, this one wouldn’t find it inspiring.
The Legendary weapons that are interesting aren’t just stat sticks.
They are light sources.
They are near weightless.
They are controlled by stats other than the usual ones (spears and two handed swords that use Agility and bows that use Strength).
They apply conditions or debuffs otherwise unavailable at all or at least not on that weapon type (gouging).

If the pieces of recycled legendaries were used to enhance high end mundane gear, that would be useful for outfitting the thrall army, and many may find it very useful just for themselves. Just not this one.
