Aside from the normal hirable leaders and the occasionally appearing Renowned Paragons that can appear with the help of Xeno-Linguists technology,Stellarisalso has these unique Legendary Paragons that can be enlisted as a leader. However, these Legendary Paragons are only for empires that are lucky enough to encounter them in the vast abyss of the galaxy.

Due to their rarity, these Legendary Paragons can sometimes be found only in certain specific circumstances, such as finding a unique star system or appearing randomly every decade with an exceedingly low chance. Due to their rarity, these Legendary Paragons can be expected to bring prosperity to the empires that enlisted their service.

Emissary Of The Formless

Players who have beenplayingStellaris' downloadable content,Astral Planes, will be familiar with the concept of the Formless faction that lies within the core of the galaxy. Managing to finish the event and enlisting the service of the faction will enable the player to hire zadigal as a leader, who is a formidable admiral with their own advantages.

Perhaps the most prominent strength they have is the trait Spacebender, which enables them to use Jump Drive freely without too much cooldown with a large range, making the fleet very mobile compared to the other fleet with different admirals.

Stranded Admiral With Their Own Ways Of Fighting

Strike craft-oriented ship designshave been entering the metaagain for quite some time due to their flexibility and range of engagement against hostile ships. Currently, every empire can only acquire up to three tiers of strike craft technology, which is the Advanced Strike Craft. However, the strongest strike craft lies locked within the exclusive technology, Skravird Strike Craft.

This can only be obtained by enlisting Skrand Sharpbeak and finishing all the unique situations that the leader spawns after joining the empire. In addition, Skrand becomes the best leader when engaging in a defensive war inside friendly systems due to the Shield of the Empire trait.

An Enigmatic Pillar Capable Of Shifting Forms

Players who tend to favor Xenophile empires will love to have The Beholder on their planets, since the Legendary Paragon heavily favors empires that are comfortable in housing species other than their own,be it biologicalor robotic. By having a variety of species, The Beholder will grant a bonus in both Happiness and Amenities, boosting their productivity massively.

Moreover, its other form as a heavily armored ship in space creates a unique advantage as it disables all shields in the system on which it roams. By specializing in ship designs with armor, The Beholder will be able to support a fleet of heavily armored ships and decimate hostile threats that rely on shields, such asthe Enigmatic Fortress.

1Astrocreator Azaryn

The Best Paragon With A Fatal Event Chain

Although her chances of appearing are quite rare, since she only appears starting at 1% chance every decade, Azaryn becomes one of the most sought-after Legendary Paragons due to her unique advantages, although one of them could cost her own life due to a unique interaction.

Her first ability to terraform three planets into Gaia World is quite beneficial since she will be able to turn even huge-sized Barren Planets into lush Gaia Worlds, making it the perfect candidate for a Tech-World and increasing the chance for players toacquire rare technologies. However, after using all three terraform options, Azaryn will die. Therefore, it is important to keep her alive by simply terraforming two planets.
