I obtained my first legendary weapon from a Tier 4 Lockbox.
The color rarity is orange (if you didn't know)
They are only obtainable as of now from lockboxes.
You are best off getting tier 4 lockboxes because they give you the greatest odds for getting legendary equipment.
EDIT:
You can obtain them from tier 2 and tier 3, but it really just depends on luck.
The higher the cost of the box, the greater the chance to earn one (i.e. 2 < 3 < 4)
*The boxes you choose to buy are entirely up to you.
*You can trade the weapons even if they are maxed out now.
They raised the chances of getting oranges in tier 4 lockboxes in Patch 1.010.
**It needs to be a weapon (as the achievement says). Getting an orange shield or grenade does not unlock the achievement.
***Via the comments; Apparently you need to shoot the weapon now for it to count.

Are you sure you get better odds by unlocking tier 4 lockboxes? I got mine from tier 2 and they are a whole lot cheaper.

Following on from the WoW colour scheme, legendarys are ORANGE in colour.
They can be obtained from various methods :
Any level lockbox
Ark fall loot
Enemy drop
The best way of receiving a legendary is via Tier4 lockboxes, although other lockboxes can gift these. You just have more chance from a Tier4 lockbox than you do a Tier2 lockbox. The chance of a legendary from a Tier4 lockbox seems quite high. I got mine on my second box.
IMPORTANT NOTE
The legendary weapons are not soul bound like most MMOs. This means, you can find a legendary, equip it, and then trade it to a friend. Any friend you trade this weapon too, just has to equip it to get their achievement to pop. This can make it an incredibly easy achievement.
Edit - it appears legendary shields will not unlock this achievement.

Not convinced that Tier 4s offer a higher chance of Legendarys. I've had four of them so far and no Legendarys in any of them. Until someone proves otherwise I'm assuming all boxes have an equal chance of a Legendary.

Devs confirmed it on their forums, if you care to search.

I just want to say, if you can't get a legendary weapon and if one of your friends has a legendary weapon, ask him nicely if he is borrowing his weapon to you, downgrade the weapon if needed next to your armor stats/class/loadout/equipment, and downgrade it for 1 arch-force/craft. and if you shoot with the weapon, the achievement should pop.
easy work easy life, thanks to gorbatsov69 for giving me his weapon.
Not sorry for bad english, i'm a german yo.

The rarity of loot is categorized in colors. Legendary weapons are color coded Orange. Orange is the rarest loot you can find in the game, so don’t expect to find any Legendaries anytime soon. You'll need to find and equip a legendary weapon; shields don't work. The colors are as followed:

- White (Common)
- Green (Uncommon)
- Cyan (Rare)
- Purple (Epic)
- Orange (Legendary)
You can find Legendaries as loot but there's a very slim chance of obtaining a Legendary as loot. Another way is to open lockboxes. If you go to the lockbox vendors, you’ll see 3 different lockboxes. Tier 2, 3 and 4. Each of these have a chance to contain a Legendary. The higher the tier, the higher the chance. You can purchase lockboxes with either Bits (real money), or by using Scrip (in-game currency) + Keycodes. Keycodes can be bought with salvage, or can be earned by doing almost anything in the game. Purchase a lockbox and it will automatically open and put the items in your inventory. (If the items don’t appear one by one on your screen, check your inventory to see if they have been added. If they’re not there, press 
, hold 
, open the Defiance Store and go to the Claim Items tab at the bottom.)
You can get free lockboxes by purchasing the booster packs. You can also use the Trading Thread to obtain a legendary.

This is unlocked by equipping a Legendary weapon (the weapon name is in orange text). These can be obtained from lockboxes using Scrip and Keycodes or Bits. You can also have a friend trade a Legendary weapon to you as long as you have a high enough EGO rating to equip it.

A trophy that depends on the “luck” factor.
There are several types of rarity weapons in the game, each with its own color: white - normal, green - improved, blue - rare, purple - very rare, orange/gold - legendary.
Finding an orange/legendary weapon dropped by an enemy is almost impossible, so there are 2 ways to get this trophy:
Method I is long.
There is a greater chance of getting legendary weapons by purchasing at retail outlets from the smallest vendors. They have such lots as: Tier Box 2, Tier Box 3, Tier Box 4. To purchase them, scripts and keys are required (you can buy them for real money - bits currency, which I strongly advise against doing, I’ll explain below), if there are problems with the scripts there won’t be - there is always a lot of currency, but with keys it’s worse - you can keep a maximum of 75 keys (they are collected in the game, especially given for participating in archfalls, multiplayer, co-op mode). Keys can be bought for green ark salvage crystals, 1 keys = 1000.
I advise you to buy the latest purple box, Tier Box 4, it costs more: 3000 scripts and 64 keys, but there is a higher probability of dropping the desired weapon.
The probability of a drop depends very much on your luck; at the time of writing this tip, I have been playing for more than 2 months and have reached almost 1800 levels, and a legendary weapon has not yet fallen out!
Method II is fast.
If you're unlucky like me, or you just don't want to waste time, then this method is for you. The only thing you will need to do is find a friend who will throw off or sell you orange weapons. An important point: the weapon that will be sold to you should not be higher than your EGO level, that is, if you are level 1000, and the weapon, for example, is level 1050, then you will not receive the trophy until you reach the desired level, since for the coveted "ding!" you need to insert the weapon into the slot and pick it up/shoot it, and if you are lower level, you won’t be able to insert it into the slot, but you can carry it in your inventory.
If you don’t have a friend, you can try to travel around the main bases (fast travel points), write a message in the area chat that you would like to buy or exchange. I managed to find people this way, but... often they demand an unrealistic amount of money that simply won’t be available.
Buying/selling occurs by trade invite, if you don’t have a person as a friend, you can invite him to the group or just be in the nearest radius to be able to throw this invite by cross to the right --> near by --> desired nickname.
p.s. Important - gold grenades and shields do not count, that is, you will not receive a trophy for them!!!
After numerous patches, the drop rate for golden weapons has increased. It can also be obtained in various dynamic events and invasions by ranking high in them.

It’s simple, we find a purple weapon (they throw it a lot) and make it “orange”, and for this you don’t need a lot of resources. Press start and right once.

I received a weapon and at the same time a trophy after three open purple chests for the keys, but there is a problem. Now, without DLS, the maximum number of keys is 55, and the chest costs 64. I did this: we accumulate keys up to 54 (by going through events on the map, getting for daily (3 keys) weekly (8 keys) input L2+R3, press the second menu there) and after that we buy 10 keys. Now you can open the chest and hope for luck. This method will also force you to spend a lot of time, since 10 keys cost a lot, but for me it was faster than accumulating 200 hammers to evolve a purple weapon into an orange one.
