How it drops
A single loot roll occurs per wave right as the final foe is defeated, evaluated at that foe's level. If a legendary drop is awarded, every equipment slot containing an eligible base has an identical chance to be chosen (with Back possessing 7% the probability of other slots), followed by an even selection among available bases in that slot. Festering Gauntlets becomes obtainable against enemy level 40 or higher and is limited to Warrior, Sorcerer, and Hunter. Normal difficulty item levels fall between 10 × (level − 1) and 10 × level + 9; on Nightmare and Inferno, foes are uniformly level 70, setting item level to 700 plus the map's level (doubled on Inferno).
Possible affixes
Every Legendary piece generates four primary affixes alongside one secondary affix, picked without duplicates from a stat pool that excludes anything unusable by your class; protective gear is also guaranteed to roll Armor as a baseline bonus. The stat intervals listed here reflect the underlying formula tied to item level, which you can experiment with directly using the item roll calculator.
