(Repost) How does one buff the Legion

This is a copy/paste of a buff idea for legion with SOME changes. This post doesn't include the addons

Before we talk about how to buff them, what does one use their power for?

3 main ways

(For information)

(Map Pressure)

(Gen Pressure)

The problem with legion, is that their power doesn't apply ENOUGH Map Pressure. The Legion relies on survivors to heal. Some people might say "Oh but they have mend!" for a short amount of time, but legion can't effectively chain stab survivors without 1 person mending before he gets his next stab off. So how would I "Change" them. (BTW all changes are to their base kit)


(QOL) When legion misses a frenzy stab, deplete 25% of the power gauge and keep him in his frenzy instead of depleting 100% of the power gauge and knocking him out of his frenzy. The legion regenerates his frenzy 5 seconds quicker.

(More Frenzy Effects) When the legion kicks a generator in their frenzy, regress that gen 5% instantly and apply a moderate overcharge effect.

(Even More Frenzy Effects) Chain stabs on multiple survivors now apply more severe effects. This is meant to signify the fact that the legion stabs MULTIPLE SURVIVORS during their frenzy with a different survivors blood getting on the blade each time. The following effects are applied:

1st survivor- Deep Wounds

2nd survivor- Deep Wounds, Hemorrhage (Until Healed)

3rd survivor- Deep Wounds (+5 sec to mend) , Hemorrhage (Until Healed), Mangled (Until Healed)

4th survivor- Deep Wounds (+5 sec to mend), Hemorrhage (Until Healed), Mangled (Until Healed), 10% Hindered (30 seconds)

Change to Frenzy:

The legion's frenzy cooldown is reduced by .5 seconds. The legion gains the iridescent button addon's first effect ( his terror radius effects the entire map in frenzy). This gives him WAY more information without making him overpowered or forcing him to use addons. The legion also gains the Undetectable status effect after he leaves his power. The duration of Undetectable is 5 seconds.

(I'm running out of time so I'll finish this tomorrow), probably. Let me know what you think. These changes were actually balanced around console.

    I love all of this, but at this point, I would legitimately be content if they just got rid of a missed attack cancelling Frenzy. As a console pleb, constant low frames makes it really easy to miss basic attacks constantly on certain maps.

    (This is a repost for the addons with changes) Each addon impacts his playstyle to an extent (small or big)

    Addon changes (THE 1st)

    So, legion has TERRIBLE addons. I made them worse. If an addon isn't present I didn't change it.

    Let's start with the ultra rares:

    Iridescent button: Pallets the Legion vaults are broken

    The legion applies and Entity Blocker for 20 seconds on any window they vault during frenzy

    The legion depletes his entire power gauge when they exit frenzy

    All survivors scream when the legion ends their frenzy


    Fuming Mixtape: Tremendously Increases the legions undectable status effect when they exit frenzy (+10 sec)

    The auras of survivors who are mending are shown to the legion within a 20 meter radius


    Now very rare:

    Filthy Blade: Considerably reduces time to mend (-3 seconds)

    Survivors who are afflicted with Deep Wounds cannot Repair, Heal, Open Exit Gates, and Sabotage

    Stab Wounds Study: Tremendously increases the time to mend (+5 seconds)

    Tremendously Decreases the duration of feral frenzy (-2.5 seconds)

    Franks Mixtape: Considerably Reduces time to mend (-3 seconds)

    Missed attacks with feral frenzy no longer deplete the power gauge

    Rare addons:

    Nasty Blade: Survivors who are hit by frenzy are deafened for 10 seconds

    Legion Pin: Survivors who are mending are oblivious

    Susies Mixtape: (Revert back to speed addons)

    Uncommon addons: (yellowlike)

    Defaced Smiley Pin: Survivors who are mending breath 50% louder

    Never-sleep pills: (Revert back to speed addons)

    Common addons:

    Friendship bracelet: (Revert back to speed addons)

    Smiley Face Pin: Survivors who are mending suffer from the blindness status effect


    And that's all she wrote. Please do tell me your thoughts. (I really hope the devs read these)
