Enduring Legacy is a late-game machine gun that can hold its own against the Tamer for the title of the strongest weapon in the game. Enduring Legacy takes lots of grinding to unlock and craft, so here’s how to get it in The First Descendant.
How to unlock Enduring Legacy in The First Descendant
Enduring Legacy is an Ultimate machine gun in The First Descendant that becomes available at Mastery Rank 15, which is quite a long grind. After you reach this rank, you need to get four individual weapon parts: Enduring Legacy Polymer Syncytium Blueprint, Enduring Legacy Synthetic Fiber Blueprint, Enduring Legacy Nano Tube Blueprint, and Enduring Legacy Blueprint.
As always, you need to craft three materials using resources and an item from the Amorphous Material. The research for every individual part takes two hours, and the weapon itself takes four hours. You also need 250,000 Gold for all the research.

What does Enduring Legacy do in The First Descendant?
The Enduring Legacy machine gun comes with a Unique Ability called Craftsmanship. Hitting an enemy increases the Status Effect Trigger Rate of the corresponding element and inflicts the Quenching debuff on the enemy. Quenching can reach up to 30 stacks, and every stack reduces the enemy’s Fire Resistance. On top of that, if you hit an enemy inflicted with Burn, Enduring Legacy gets a Firearm ATK buff.
This weapon is essentially Python but for Fire damage. It functions almost the same and synergizes with Fire ATK Modules and Descendants. It also has a high base Firearm Critical Hit Rate, so you can build it fully into Critical Hit rather than Weak Point Damage.
