Legends you have to put in (a lot) of optional time to get to 100%. I've never 100%ed Legends (I've managed 1mil Lums, but never the highest level of awesomeness), because I just do not want to be stuck playing Legends for an extended period of time as a grind. At least Rayman 1's 100% is because you're trying to git gud, not just repeating the same sort of content to make number go up.
1 million lums is just grinding. The highest level of awesomeness is only obtainable if you play online. Even back when the PC servers were online I only played strictly offline. Couldn't be bothered.

The fastest way to get the 1 million lums is by doing challenges. If you’re a sweat like me you’ll get it from platinum cups in 10 days!

Why would I want to spend 10 days doing the exact same things repeatedly. For a game that i'm not too fond of, mind you?

The grinding makes the game very inacessible to someone like me who has Dyspraxia

We're not brothers of any sort until you complete Rayman 2 and 3! :lol:

Dyspraxia makes perise movements hard. And the challanges in L are Presise!

That’s certainly fair enough. Though every bronze and silver adds up!

Yes but exactly how many points are those and how do they add up to the total needed for the last level? I thought only Diamond cups had any worthy merit of points towards 11.

See, that proves my point here. Like even gold is much lower than diamond, like what kind of wack point system did Ubisoft use for this.

You only need to win 200 challenges with gold, so you’ll get it in, like, 3 months if you keep consistent!

Are you studying to be a mathematician or something? You'd have to be dedicated to repeat the same challenges 200+ times to get this level.

No, not really. You get 4000 XP from playing the game, and there’s 2 daily and 2 weekly challenges. So getting a gold every time will mean you will take about 3 months, yeah. Plus you’ll probably sprinkle a few plats here and there

I used to play the challenges all the time for most of 2015 and 2016. I enjoyed it a lot, and it didn't take up too much of my day… I generally went for gold, sometimes got diamond :hap:

Only in terms of da and environment then, the free movement of Adventures automatically makes it superior

Yeah, Rayman Adventures gets too much shit for just being a mobile game. It’s better than a lot of critically acclaimed console games.

The fact that Ubisoft give more updates to a mobile games than the console ones is beyond my comprehension :fou2:
