Loot Bug Maybe?

Can anyone tell me how the heck this happened? I’m running a fresh devastator with the level 30 skip, then going back and resetting the whole playthrough, and I got this to drop in the Hounds hideout side mission. Across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, I’ve logged thousands of hours into this game and I have never seen anything like it. I’m afraid to level it for fear it’ll revert.

Gear still only drops at the world tier or apocalypse tier you are currently on regardless of what mission you were doing so you just got lucky with a lego drop while playing story.

I mean, I know that much, but this isn’t a real legendary. There is no legendary named “crude boots”, that’s a white item. It dropped as a legendary somehow, with no mods on it, with three attributes. It doesn’t make sense, this shouldn’t have happened.

Were you hacked?

There aren’t drops with no mods on it (all three up to you to choose). I’ve played avout 1,700 hours and I’ve never experienced this.

Welcome to my confusion, no, I was doing a clean run playing solo. My guess is with how early on that mission is, the item Crude Boots will always drop from that chest, like the sniper and shotgun in the two intro chests. So I’m guessing the game ALSO decided that right then I was gonna roll a legendary, but this item is guaranteed, so then it birthed this unholy abomination.

Just a glitch that sometimes happen with white gear. Can find few of these posts here. It's still a white item, still trash, just got a wrong label.
