Legion changes

Recently, Ive come across the Legion trailer again.

I remembered being so freaking hyped about this Killer and their awesome concept. Sadly, I also remembered how disappointed Ive been when I played them ...

The chapter title "Dakrness among us", the trailer and also the art concept of the Legion, all of them were teasers for a Killer who blends in as a Survivor and this is what the community wanted so much. Instead, we got a Killer who NEEDS his Terror Radius to make use of his ability (so not a very good disguise).

I really want a rework of the Legion to this (in my opinion the original) concept of a sneaky, stealthy Killer who tricks the Survivors before he stands next to you and stabs right in your face.

I also know that now we have Ghostface who kinda has this function in the game, so I guess its very unlikely that my wish comes true but as I saw the trailer again I really felt betrayed again ...

What do you guys think of the Legion, his teasers and their gameplay now?

    It's situational but you can do the stealth you see in the trailer. Every time I get a Nea in that checkered red outfit I put on the similar looking outfit from the latest rift. Then equipt dark devotion to lose the terror radius after stabbing the obsession. I get at least 1-2 sneaky hits because they think I'm Nea. If the team doesn't catch on early on what I'm doing I get more sneaky hits. It's really fun walking towards a gen without spooking anyone.

    What he needs is a chase mechanic..he has a pressure tool but much like old freddy legion wins by making games a slow slog to finish gens

    Why exactly were people annoyed by Legion besides those exploits, infinite mending, etc. Their gameplay was so cool at the beginning. I am not saying that now they are the worst killer in the game, but it feels so basic and boring to play compared to the old legion. They have a fri**ing knife, why aren't they more lethal?

    I really like his gameplay as is. I dont think he needs a rework. I do however think its stupid that if I stab someone I lose some of my power gauge, not sure the reasoning behind that but it can get annoying. I also think legion should have bloodhound built in during ff mode as it fits with the character and if i cant see scratch marks at least give me that. The duration of FF should also be a touch longer and fov should be increased during ff. Sounds like a lot but these are all minor tweeks to numbers except the bloodhound bit. Doesnt qualify as a rework in the same vain as fred or doc

    Pig does it better, I love clips of Pigs crouch walking to a Gen and standing next to survivors who then realize it’s a pig, pop gen and run scared. Hilarious. Pig really got a good ability for blending in, something they did make seem Legend would do.

    thats how the gold legion worked, but he was far off the trailer and stuff, too.

    I really do hate that the devs gave us the hope that this was a kind of "blend in as a survivor technique" killer (for example after you hit a survivor you turn into the shape of him and dropping your terror radius at the point where you were at the hit).

    They gave us hope to a extremely nice and new kind of gameplay, which would bring back the horror into the game by spreading fear between the survivors but what we got was a killer who cant even down survivors with his ability and survivors who get hit can just be like:

    "like i give a #########"

    So sad, i love the look of the legion and so on but i hate the gameplay.

    make feral frenzy infinite until he/she hits someone and also the morw you do combo the less the cooldown will be (the stun after coming out of frenzy)
