01What are Legendary cheats?
Three Legendary cheats exist on the whole server, one of each. Each one upgrades a core power for whoever holds it:
| Legendary | Upgrades | Holder bonus |
|---|---|---|
| Legendary Flight | Short Flight | 30% less Heat, 25% shorter cooldown |
| Legendary X-Ray | Ore Ping | 30% less Heat, 25% shorter cooldown |
| Legendary Shockwave | Shockwave | 30% less Heat, 25% shorter cooldown |
Holders also get a particle effect and a star on their name. Everyone can see who has one, and /legendaries lists the current holders.
There are no copies and no second tier. If someone holds Legendary Flight, nobody else on the server has it until it changes hands.
02The exact numbers
Apply 30% off Heat and 25% off cooldown to the base stats and you get this:
| Power | Base Heat | Legendary Heat | Base cooldown | Legendary cooldown |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Short Flight | 45 | 31.5 | 30s | 22.5s |
| Ore Ping | 20 | 14 | 30s | 22.5s |
| Shockwave | 35 | 24.5 | 28s | 21s |
03What the bonus actually means: uses before the cap
Heat caps at 100. The Legendary discount changes how many times you can fire the power in one stack:
| Power | Base uses under 100 | Legendary uses under 100 |
|---|---|---|
| Short Flight | 2 (90) | 3 (94.5) |
| Ore Ping | 5 (100, at the cap) | 7 (98) |
| Shockwave | 2 (70) | 4 (98) |
Legendary Shockwave doubles the safe chain. Legendary Flight adds a third flight. Legendary X-Ray turns Ore Ping into something you can run nearly nonstop, since the 22.5-second cooldown also brings it back faster.
04Cooldown math for holders
The 25% shorter cooldown adds up over a session. Over 10 minutes (600 seconds) of firing on cooldown, ignoring Heat:
| Power | About this many uses in 10 min (base) | About this many (Legendary) |
|---|---|---|
| Short Flight | 20 (every 30s) | 26 (every 22.5s) |
| Ore Ping | 20 (every 30s) | 26 (every 22.5s) |
| Shockwave | 21 (every 28s) | 28 (every 21s) |
In practice Heat limits you before cooldowns do, so the Heat discount and the cooldown cut work together: cheaper uses that also come back faster. Legendary X-Ray is the easiest one to run all session, because Ore Ping was already the lowest Heat-per-minute power and the holder pays 14 per ping.
05How do Legendary cheats change hands?
- Dying can release it. An environmental death, like lava or a fall, makes it unclaimed.
- Killing the holder can transfer it. The killer can take it.
- /legendaries shows who holds each one right now.
Legendary transfers are one of the moments that feed the Hall of Infamy on the website automatically.
06Holding a Legendary: how to keep it
- Avoid environmental deaths. That's the one way it leaves you and goes unclaimed. Lava and long falls are a real risk to a Legendary.
- Mind the star. Your name shows a star and a particle effect. You're visible.
- Use the discount for escape, not just offense. A Legendary Flight holder can fly three times under the cap; a normal player gets two. That gap is how you get away.
- Stay off the WANTED list. Overheating with PvP on makes you WANTED for 180 seconds and pings hunters within 300 blocks. A WANTED Legendary holder is a target every hunter in range wants.
07Hunting a Legendary
Check /legendaries, then find a holder you can fight. PvP is opt-in on CHEAT SMP, so you need your own PvP on. Count their Heat: the bar and tier show under player names and in the tab list. A Legendary Shockwave holder can fire four in a stack instead of two, so don't close in assuming they're out after two.
Watch the cooldowns too. A Legendary Flight holder can be back in the air 22.5 seconds after landing, not 30. Time your push for right after they use the power, not halfway through the cooldown you'd expect from a normal player.
08Common mistakes with Legendaries
- Assuming base cooldowns. The holder's power comes back 25% faster.
- Assuming base Heat. The holder can fire more times before overheating.
- Dying to the environment. That doesn't hand it to an enemy; it makes it unclaimed.
- Thinking you can buy one. Powers are never sold. See no pay to win.

One more: the particle effect and star don't switch off, so a holder is always identifiable.
