Unique Legendary categorisation
Why is this article only listed as Category:Legendary and not also Category:Unique, is this just an oversight? I'm not familiar with weapon article etiquette. -- zuriki (talk) 05:29, October 24, 2014 (UTC)
Unique is used to describe a weapon that is not of Legendary color ( ie. purple, blue, green ) but still has the red flavor text.
