Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest does have a proc, but the information hasn't been included in the PTR data files yet (which means there's nothing to datamine right now).

We did, however, hint at what the proc will be in our 4.2 preview: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2685003

The great staff duplicates destructive magics, and also bestows upon its wielder the ability to transform into a member of the Blue Dragonflight.

Blizzard Poster Daxxarri Deflects Legendary Staff Attacks

How is a legendary at all legendary when the only way to obtain it is to be in a guild willing to give you 50 of an item over the course of 2+ months?
It's a little early to already be complaining about something you haven't seen or experienced, isn't it?

that

wish i got paid to derail threads without responding to a legit question, which was, if i read it correctly, "why don't legendaries assist in progression, as opposed to just sitting in org epeening while my guild has the raid on farm?"

It's not premature Daxx. It's obvious that the only people who have a chance to obtain the weapon are those that are lucky enough to find raid teams who can farm/are willing to farm raids for a significant period of time. It's just one more piece of content that your average player base will be unable to participate in.
I'm not sure that you can call being a dedicated raider a matter of luck.

I guess, I'd rather like to see the legendary quest as something that a guild sends one person or a small group out to do whilst they raid. Or obtaining a legendary maybe for someone not in an elite raid that might make them then attractive to an elite raid. Then once they've achieved the goal, they come back and participate in the raid. If you raid, you can't get the legendary. If you go after the legendary, you can't raid until you've gotten it.

But this is an altogether too common trend when tough questions, or inconsistencies are pointed out. Avoiding the issue, refusing to acknowledge the points, red herringing people into oblivion... SUPER FUNNY.

if most people think they can never get one, then they aren't an effective carrot

Compensating other guild members with pets is a poor excuse for giving someone a legendary AND an exclusive mount.

Is it just the normal raids or heroic? We know it's more likely to be the normal one but it would help if we had a confirmation for it i think.

I don't know if you can tell us, but this makes me wonder. You said you (don’t) want legendaries to be about random drops anymore. Does that imply that like, the Raid items (I'm assuming there's at least one set of items that's an equivalent of Shadowfrost Shards, etc) are 100% drops, or maybe it's like a soft achievement kind of thing, "Kill Lord Examplegar while he's kited into Raid Mechanic Y and the Firederp Shard will drop"?

...and something only an exclusive number of guilds will likely ever see. So what wholly unprecedented and cool things are you doing for the rest of us?

Legendaries have never been snorendaries when it comes to PvP.

BG and Arenas have their scales tipped when a legendary makes it's way on to the field. This past season you (blizzard) withheld arena weapons such as not to undermine raid progression by making it easier with the pvp weapons.

Will there be (maybe not 4.2, but sometime) a time when legendaries cannot be used in RBG or Arena?
