Two Ideas to Make the Legion more Viable

Due to the Legion's Deep Wound being very easy to deal with and Feral Frenzy being non-lethal, the Legion's power needs to change in order to make him viable. I have two ideas on the subject but only one would be implemented:

1) Feral Frenzy Buff
This rework makes Feral Frenzy itself Legion's ability and not the Deep Wound. This rework makes the legion work similar to the nurse with more ease of use but a slightly higher punishment for mistakes.

  • Remove Legion's deep wound
  • Reduce his base movement to 4.0 m/s (same as survivors sprinting)
  • Slightly increase how long it takes Feral Frenzy to recharge (must be fully charged to use)
  • Slightly increase how long Feral Frenzy lasts
  • Feral Frenzy is now lethal and buffs his movement speed to the same speed it was on the PTB while using Feral Frenzy

2) Deep Wound Buff
This keeps Deep Wound a time waster that survivors need to get around, making Legion a bit more unique

  • Deep Wound timer extended
  • Mending a wound resets the timer
  • Deep Wound can only be removed with a Med-kit or by a teammate
  • Self-Care speeds up the Mending action significantly but still only resets the timer

What do you think of these two possible buffs/reworks to the Legion? What would you change?
