Help For Legion, rework

I'm just collecting some ideas I deem as good here for discussion. Legion, from what I've seen and heard (I miss my laptop) is a pain to play as and against, so here's some ideas i heard from elsewhere that i'm combining and tweaking. I think this would make him more fun to play and to play against.
So, Legion needs normal speed (it doesn't make sense for him to be slow) and his power needs debuffs to discourage tunneling a person down. The debuffs I'm speaking of would be an increased timer so that he isn't rewarded for chasing one person with his power and the deep wound not going down in his terror radius to counter him cheesing his ability and following behind you, looking at his feet. Mending SHOULD be considered a healing action as mending and healing goes hand and hand.
To encourage going after multiple people, the power should be prolonged so that you can reach everyone, but you should get punished for whiffs either with a slight stun or a reduction in the bar. Either works. There needs to be a punishment for mindlessly swinging until you hit.
TL;DR
Buffs: longer frenzy to reach everyone, normal speed, nurses catches mending
Debuffs: increased amount of hits necessary to down with frenzy, stun or penalty for whiffs while in frenzy, pausing deep wound while in heartbeat
