You're making it sound like legacy items are some huge advantage: they're not. Manastones, CoSes, and Holgresh Elder Beads are probably the most useful legacy items, and they're all droppable. That means
anyone can buy them,
any time ... just save up your platinum pieces. Everything no drop and legacy (eg. guises) is really just a status symbol, and not at all necessary.
But even if you don't ever buy any legacy item, you can still play for years on P99 having tons of fun ... and that fun won't be reduced at all by your lack of legacy pixels.
