"Harach used the last of his own life force to cast a spell of blood magic that bound demons to the bodies of the three dead lieutenants as well as Harach's own lifeless corpse. These bound revenants hid the pieces of the Juggernaut armor. The Juggernaut armor's legend lives on, and more than one brave soul has ventured into the depths of the Brecilian Forest in search, never to return." (From Codex Entry: Legend of the Juggernaut)

Legendary items are not just items with a unique name, they are items that would be coveted from people all over Ferelden. They are usually Tier 6 or 7 with a very high power level. Most cost over 50 at stores, are discovered at the end of quest lines, or are gained from DLC. They are items that even a level 20 character would find useful and often have a corresponding codex entry.
