Legion still needs a rework.
Amongst the community Legion's various problems are well understood, as is the fact that he needs a rework. Arguably he's the weakest killer in the game and this makes him very unfun and frustrating to play the better the survivors get. Legion also relies on getting free injures on people and forcing them to wait out a timer while they mend. This is objectively unfun and uninteractive for survivors regardless of if it's actually an effective power or not. These facts are the main contributing factors as to why legion hasn't received any type of buffs or changes despite his weak status. Because it's simply hard to balance it when the power itself when it's problematic for both sides.
The clown rework was weak to put it lightly. All it did was give minor improvements to his chase ability while not covering the killer's inability to pressure the map, a problem that a LOT of killers have. Even killers with high down potential can still easily lose matches to their inability to pressure the map. This is why things like Ruin and Corrupt are so necessary because it gives them that which lack in their base kit.
Yes it's understood by this point that the development team is aiming the game towards a casual audience and killers being able to consistently kill everyone every game is not what the team wants. So for effective killers it's fine, just bring the strong perks and make due. But legion is not an effective killer and is not fun for either side to deal with.
This is why I believe he needs a full rework. Not just adjusting his power or adding a new mechanic but rather fundamentally changing his power as a whole. Personally, I bought him for the whole thematic of a more human killer that runs after people. It closely resembles a more believable serial killer than an alien monster, which I still love by the way so don't misunderstand. So this thematic can still be retained. Work on the idea of him still being a sprinting killer that can follow survivors over their protective pallets and windows, but change the rest. Perhaps it could be closer to Oni's power. If this isn't feasible then change everything in it's entirety and just go with a different power. With the addition of Nemesis and Pinhead it's obvious the development team is now capable of considerably more advanced concepts, so taking a step back and redoing old content is more than feasible. It's simply a question of if management wishes to pursue this idea.
Hopefully the idea of changing legion takes traction. Despite the things I said he's still my favorite killer and I'd love to see him in a fresh light where he's more fun and rewarding to play as. Thank you for reading.
