Proposal
Instead of Legacy quests being at set levels, they should match your level. I also think the gear that you get from these quests should match your level. Furthermore, I think it would be a cool idea to add badges for each planet's Legacy questline for an added sense of accomplishment.
Justification
I think having Legacy quests match your level would make them a lot more engaging, rewarding, and challenging. Plus it would solve the problem of being over-leveled and attempting to do them. Furthermore, adding new badges would give players a reason to go through them.
Motivation
I actually enjoy doing the Legacy quests but I found that as my CL rose, I would easily get over-leveled for the content. When you are over-leveled it makes going back to these quests seem more like a chore than a rewarding experience. I also think added badges per planet questline would add a sense of accomplishment.
Overall, I actually like the Legacy quests but I think some minor changes would really help to improve them.

Great ideas here!
I imagine the scale with level is a bit tricky to do on such an old game, but the badges for completion on each planet is a great idea!

I think the Legacy Quest line is good and the issue is that we out-level it due to the 5x XP for quests on R3. We could nerf that to 1.5 like harvester efficiency and resolve the problem. I suspect thats not desired either.

The fact that it becomes unnecessary is perhaps more reason to make the reward greater in terms of items and badges more than to re balance the content I think.

Maybe if it were partitioned off so you could pick up the start of a new section without the pre-req, you could skip over some of it. Its not like there's a story arc to preserve.

The current issue with the legacy quest also is during NGE, you started at CL 10 after completing (or not completing) the tutorial. Here you start at CL1 no matter what, so you're already at a small loss, although alot of this is recouped with the 5x XP.

But having Legacy scale with you is a nice touch. It defeats the point of the Legacy (to help low level players level up), but it would be good for R3 to have this considering many skip the Legacy quest in favor of spin groups, and going back to Legacy at CL 80 I can imagine would be mind numbing.
 
I prefer to keep it the way it is. its a great way for new characters to get a good start on their skills and the lvl 14 white thranta weapon is a nice powerup from the starter junk. I usually finish that around level 8, so if the rewards were scaled to my CL, it would then suck.

No there is no reason to scale this for people who chose not to do the legacy quest line when they should have. Should we also scale the theme parks for you too? If you skipped the content that is your own fault. If you scaled this, then you should make everything scaled, so that we can go to high level areas at low level too and still complete things. And no I dont want that.
