I'm trying to figure out how the system works and I was wondering.
I already read about, Under what conditions does Malthael drop legendary pieces or plans?
When you first kill Malthael you have a guarantee drop (boots + plan) and another one, if you reset your quest you will get another guarantee legendary.
But, reading a blue, the guarantee legendary comes if you complete all the quests before, is this true? Have anyone tried it?
What happens if I reset the quests, a friend of mine give me the last wp and kill him again, will I have another leg?
On the other hand, what happens if I powerlevel one toon to 70 doing ccor and hermit, doing no quest at all and a friend of mine kills malthael in T1? Will I get only the plan + boots or I will get a lot of legendaries?
Thanks

I have tried resetting quests and killed Malthael with a friend giving me the WP afterwards, but got no legendary out of it.
Afterwards I tried doing all quests in act 5 and killing Malthael afterwards, which resulted in a legendary and a plan, so i think you need to do all quests in act 5 for the guaranteed legendary (I have no official source about this, but this seems pretty much like the way it is).
Also to reset the quests you need to do ALL quests from act 1-5 or the button won't get clickable. SOURCE
Additionally (just if you didn't know) you get an experience and gold bonus for completing quests the first time after resetting quests.
