Fallout 76 legendary mods

In Fallout 76, weapons, armor, and power armor can have special modifiers applied to them called legendary effects.

Background
These effects turn regular items into legendary items, identified by one or several stars (★) after their name. Legendary items have one or more randomly determined special modifications, affecting combat or character stats. They may be earned as quest or Daily Ops rewards, looted from legendary enemies, bought from Purveyor Murmrgh or crafted with legendary modules.

Guide

Gameplay
Three tiers of legendary modifiers exist for both weapons and armor. A Tier 1 modifier appears on all legendary items, taking up the first "star." The modifier will be added to legendary weapon's dynamic naming as a prefix. Tier 2 modifiers comprise the second star of a legendary item and Tier 3 modifiers comprise the third. In general, Tier 2 and Tier 3 modifiers do not affect a legendary item's name. legendary weapons and armor use different sets of modifiers and cannot use modifiers from the other's item type.

Although additional legendary modifier slots exist (Tier 4 and Tier 5 modifiers, respectively), 4 and 5-star legendary items are disabled. However, the Tier 4 and Tier 5 legendary effects are used in many of the quest-specific unique legendary weapons and armors, such as Perfect Storm or All Rise.

Legendary items can have a maximum of one modifier per category, based on the number of stars:
 * A 1-star legendary will have a Tier 1 modifier.
 * A 2-star legendary will have a Tier 1 modifier and a Tier 2 modifier.
 * A 3-star legendary will have a Tier 1 modifier, a Tier 2 modifier, and a Tier 3 modifier.


 * The number and type of effects generated are not affected by any SPECIAL stats, such as Luck.
 * Legendary effects are randomly generated upon crafting or dropping. They cannot be found as loose mods.
 * Certain unique items have predetermined legendary effects.
 * Legendary items cannot be scrapped at a workbench, but they may be placed in a legendary exchange machine for legendary scrip.
 * Aside from their provided effects, legendary items otherwise have the same statistics as regular items, and can be equipped with the same mods.
 * Almost every legendary item may be dropped, traded to other players or sold to vendors for caps.
