The surest way to bag a Legendary Weapon is to level up to around 20-25, then complete one of the later Lost & Found weapon quests that has a guaranteed weapon reward at the end. The ‘Fool’s Gold’ Lost & Found Quest at The Pier is a good shout - you’ll get the ‘Blood Rage’ Legendary Weapon (a skull-puncturing dagger) for your efforts. Or you could wait until the end of the story and get Sam B's 'Emma's Wrath' hammer.

There are 8 legendary weapons in all, check out our Dead Island 2 legendary weapon guide for more assistance on how to bag yourself one.
