If you’re looking to get best the best weapons and equipment in the game, you’ll be wanting to complete Anthem Legendary Contracts. Players who successfully complete the Legendary Contracts have a better chance at finding powerful loot, when compared to the standard Agent Contracts. As you might imagine, the Legendary Contracts are a lot tougher, cranking the difficulty up to really challenge a squad. If you feel like you’re up to the task, read on for our guide on how to unlock Legendary Contracts in Anthem, and what you get as a reward for completing them.
How to unlock Anthem Legendary Contracts
To unlock the Anthem Legendary Contracts, you’ll first want to finish all standard Contracts available from the various Agents in Fort Tarsis. Head to your map and look for Agents/Faction Boards that are available for interaction. Keep completing each Faction’s respective Missions and Contracts until no more remain. Once you have finished the storyline for a faction, you should begin to see Legendary Contracts unlock and become playable.
Do note that you don’t have to hit the maximum Faction Reputation to unlock these Legendary Contracts.
Once unlocked, you’ll be able to matchmake with other players and work together to take down the tougher enemies.
If the Legendary Contracts still do not unlock after completing the relevant Missions and Contracts, you could unfortunately be experiencing a bug that will hopefully be fixed in the Day 1 patch.
Anthem Legendary Contracts Rewards
The Anthem Legendary Contracts rewards seem to be quite inconsistent. Sometimes, you’ll experience a series of very generous loot drops, with multiple Masterworks earned in a single round. At other times, the loot drops will be pretty disappointing.
At the time of writing, farming Anthem Legendary Contracts is one of the fastest ways of increasing your Javelin’s level and rarity.

Everything You Need to Know About Anthem's Javelins
So, you're diving into Anthem? Not sure which of the mech suits to climb into first? We've taken them all for a test flight, cooled off under the waterfall, and returned with the lowdown on all four. Here's everything you need to know about Anthem's Javelins. -
Ranger
No matter your preference, you'll be starting your Anthem run in a Ranger. Described as the all around jack of all trades, the Ranger can slot into any situation and round out any team. Rangers can dash across short distances and strike foes with a devastating Shock Mace. -
Lock and Load
As for gear, a Ranger can pack grenades or cannon blasts. These range from elemental bombs to heat-seeking missiles. Rangers can support their team with a bubble shield that protects from foes or enhances damage. Finally, the Ranger's ultimate is a volley of missiles that can hit dozens of enemies at once. -
Colossus
For a mech game, Anthem sure does have some agile suits. If you want a more traditional giant robot experience, may we suggest the Colossus? The biggest of the four Javelins, the Colossus is a tank that blasts into battle with a mounted flamethrower and several ordinances. -
Prepare for Titanfall
The Colossus is all about busting things up. Whether that's with various mortars, a literal firewall or a burst of lightning, you'll be charging through foes and making a lot of noise. There's also a Railgun and a Flak Cannon to strap on if you want to get even more up close and personal. -
Interceptor
You want fast? Pick the Interceptor. With an innate triple jump and three dashes, you'll be moving all around the battlefield as you pepper opponents with shots. Mark enemies with your Target Beacon to single them out and boost damage across your team. Or, just focus in yourself with this mech's range of different systems. -
The Need for Speed
Interceptor players shine in the melee arena. Among their options are an electrifying dash attack, several different elemental ninja stars, and poisonous options for decaying large groups of foes. You can also do the Naruto thing and create duplicates to confuse your opponents before hitting your final strike. -
Storm
Of all the Javelins in Anthem, the Storm is the most unique. It's not every day that your robot suit is slinging magic spells like some kind of wizard from the moon. Storms can hover in mid-air away from danger and pepper the field with damage. -
Bringing the Thunder
You've got everything you'd expect from an elemental warrior. Ice beams, lightning bolts, frost shards, and fireballs, all at your fingertips. When you charge your ultimate, you can combine all the elements into a torrent of energy that can wipe out a whole squadron. -
What's Next for Javelins?
Storm, Colossus, Ranger, and Interceptor. These are the four Javelins that Freelancers can pilot in their Anthem adventures. Will we see more variety in future Javelin designs? New abilities for existing warriors? New chances for combo attacks? Only time and BioWare's roadmap can say for sure.
