Looks like 38 possible abilities for ballistic weapons (if you have far harbor, 32 otherwise) and the chance for a hunting rifle at level 40+ is 4.046%, so chance for a legendary to be an instigating hunting rifle is: If you have far harbor installed it adds a ton of garbage legendary abilities which makes finding a specific one harder. You probably want an instigating gauss instead of sniper rifle. (Also after a legendary spawns, the game doesn't roll legendary chance for the next 6 mobs that could be legendaries - this is why during settlement attacks which spawn 10 enemies you will never see more than 2 legendaries)


(Mods/console commands can make it whatever you want though.) Originally posted by Doombringer:Legendary chance goes up with level (max 20% at level 50+) and difficulty (0.5x on very easy to 1.5x on survival/very hard) - so can be 30%.
