Seasonal Legendaries are not meant by the designers to be special, super-quality legendary items. They are just new weapons, armor, [[legendary follower items]], and/or [[legendary potions]] that may be better or worse than existing legendary gear. They are not meant to create a new higher tier of loot, though it seems likely that Blizzard will use these new legendaries to try to add variety and alternatives to some of the most powerful/popular current legendary items.

It==Season One Legendary Items== The first Diablo 3 season is set to begin Friday, August 29, 2014, soon after [[Patch 2.1]] live earlier that week.

==PTR Patch 2.1 Legendaries==

The first seasonal legendaries ~~became available~~ were created while [[Patch 2.1]] was in testing on the [[PTR]] from ~~July~~June-August 2014. ~~More seasonal legendary~~ The items were clearly works in progress with temporary names and changing stats. Some items were ~~added~~ even removed entirely during ~~the long~~ testing ~~of Patch 2~~, or replaced by others.~~1, and there~~ There were multiple seasonsas well, though the same items remained available in all of them[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-3-ladders-info-season-one-ends-ptr][http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/another-new-diablo-3-ptr-season-begins] during the Patch 2.1 PTR testing, as Blizzard needed to test the season ending/beginning software~~, but all the items can be regarded as Patch 2.1 PTR Season One legendaries as they all remained seasonal for the duration of the PTR of Patch 2.1~~ The first seasonal legendaries were revealed in Patch 2.1 notes[http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/14569138/patch-210-ptr-patch-notes-updated-july-9-7-18-2014#seasonalitems], and they were obviously [[WiP]] with "TBD" names and stats. Many of the items changed in name and/or properties during the PTR testing period.

[[Bottomless Potion of Rejuvenation]]

* Restores 15% of your primary resource when used below 25% Life

'''x1_FollowerItem_Legendary_03''' (Name still TBD)

* Grants a 20% Movement Speed bonus

* Taking damage causes you to lose this effect for 15 seconds

[[Krelm's Buff Bracers]]

* Grant you immunity to Knockback and Stun effects

This item was initially a normal shield, but was quickly switched to a Crusader Shield. [http://diablo.incgamers.com/blizzard-tracker/devthread/us/13732903257] That's actually a benefit for Crusaders as it's more likely to drop for them, and can spawn with +damage to specific Crusader shields, and Cooldown Reduction (which normal shields can not).
