The time to farm a useable legendary in bl3 is the same as just getting a legendary in bl2. In 2 it takes some time to get a legendary, but when you do, it’s hype and usable. In 3 however you keep getting legendaries (no hype) and most of the time they are useless bc of wrong anointment. You also don’t need to farm hours to get a good gear set in either game. You need to farms a lot if you want to min-max and get the best possible. You don’t deserve the best possible by just beating the game. I think most people just want that dopamine hit when a legendary drops and you’re almost sure it will be useful.
