I don't get the special vs basic split on some Killers.

How are nurses blink hits and death slingers chain hits not considered special attacks they are basics.

But Amanda's ambush and legion's frenzy are considered special attacks.


In the case of legion don't get me wrong I'm not asking for frenzy to a proc exposed. But considering it never triggered exposed in the first place but it did all be other on hit perks what was the point in changing it. Was Legion double tapping for Remember Me or getting third seal online incredibly quickly that overpowered.

As for Amanda I could not see any reason why it doesn't just work as a basic attack. I've heard people say it's because you have to charge it well I completely fails when you look at nurse. I've heard people say you have to activate your power and then use it to get it but again deathsinger activate all these effects.


Essentially what I'm saying is is I feel like Legion's change was completely unnecessary because the way frenzy worked with perks was fine.

I feel like Amanda's change would have been understandable if they weren't other examples that are still considered basic attacks
