This chart lists the most popular Legendary and Set items for all level 70 hardcore Crusaders in Diablo III.
Since they must be more cautious when farming for gear, hardcore Crusaders do not gain the same number of Legendary or Set items on average as a softcore Crusader. Because of this, there are fewer items widely used across level 70 hardcore Crusaders, compared to the Legendary and Set items popular with the softcore Crusaders.
