Tracking with Legion (on console)

Chuckyyo

So, first things first, this isn't another thread hating on Legion from any perspective, rather asking for other people's experiences and, maybe some advise.

Playing Legion on PS4, I often have a hard time following targets while using the power. Due to not seeing scratch marks and the muffled sounds, it's harder to follow someone at close distance than with other killers. When someone jukes me at close range and I miss the swing, it often takes some time to localize them again, during which they gain distance. I often think of this when I read the point that there's no counter play to Legion, because in my experience, these things make them more "jukable" than other killers. Following people through corn without marks and with lowered sounds at console fps is a nightmare. It's easier if you get the first hit because of the pain noises, obviously.

I'm aware that some people are using Stridor, which helps with finding injuried people, but doesn't do anything before you connect the first hit. And naturally it might be less of a problem on PC because of the higher framerate and sensitivity.

So I'd be interested in hearing if other console players have the same problems, or if it's just me. I'm relatively new to the game and aware that I could definetely play better with them, so please don't just bash on me regarding that aspect . If you don't the same problem, I'd be thankful for advise.

Yeah Bloodhound is a must for me when I am playing Legion, it is difficult for me to keep up with survivors once I applied dw since you don’t see any scratches

Yeah, I lose survivors sometimes but I just exit my Frenzy immediately once I lost track of them. They turn out to be pretty close so I just smack them down. Try bloodhound though if you really are having problems. It's not necessary but it's really good on Legion

i struggle with the legion too....but...i plan on playing better, getting use to perks that work and hopefully getting better with him/her....

I had a very similar experience. I only use feral frenzy when i see them or at least know where they are.
Bloodhound is pretty nice as Iceman also said.
And yes, the framerate sometimes gets so bad, i can't hit anybody if they just...don't run straight while in frenzy.

I play Legion alot on Ps4 at Rank 1. Corn absolutely sucks. I recommend ending frenzy when chasing someone in corn if they are already injured. As for getting juked, in normal chases, that's just something you have to read. You might want to up your sensitivity if you can't turn fast enough to hit people. if it's vaults, always expect someone to try to vault back when you do and stand still. sometimes you lose a bit of distance as you turn to check, but it's worth not letting them through if they are. There's not much else I can tell you to help except that Cold Dirt and Joey's Mixtape are the best add-ons together. Inflict wound, catch up and end frenzy without attacking a second time. You have a small gap to catch up after that and normal attack. Good luck dude. Legion is a challenge, but a fun one.

Well. For the first hit he is a LoS attacker.
You need him in your sights, so you can apply DW.
Secondly, you ether need to drop Frenzy ASAP when you hit a survivor(so you can go in for a second hit with a regular attack) what i do is hit them with Frenzy, and if i dont see any Killer Instinct notfications i follow the survivor, then i get cloae enough i drop fenzy as i have a good idea where they are going.
If you lose them, folloq the blood Trail, or scratchmarks(after canceling Frenzy) some perks help with him
So here is the build im using for him atm
Bbq and chili, Monitor and Abuse, Thanataphobia, and Nurses Calling.

Bloodhound, and sloppy butcher
It really improves tracking those survivors.

I use Thanataphobia, Hex: Ruin, Monitor & Abuse, and a random perk for fun. Thanataphobia is a must or people just never heal. Sometimes they still don't heal and power through. Hex: The Third Seal is pretty nice on Legion if you can hit everyone pretty quickly (And keep the totem up).
