Give me a Reason

Ok so I haven't been able to play dbd hardcore for about 2 weeks because of Legion hate. I spend about 3 straight days off grinding Legion perks and feeling pretty good. I made some fun builds and had a philosoply of hooking everyone, slowing the game down and maybe getting a sacrifice or 2. Even without a sacrifice with BBQ and such I was able to consistently get BP and usually pip. I thought I had mastered the game.

I had a made a playstyle that tried to follow all the survivor rules about not camping and even not tunnelling. I had read post about how pipping and blood points worked and my games both me and survivors were consistently getting lots of blood points and probably pipping due to both getting gains from chases and saves etc.

Well I was still getting end match grief for playing Legion and then when I went to share my joy of finding a perfect spec for me from Streamers on Twitch I found that they ALL every single one of them hate Legion and anyone playing Legion. I even played a Legion game with Blood Hound for the first time (did a little moonwalking head down chasing and beat a group of pretty good swf, but that actually just made me feel like a jerk.)

So I decided to put Legion on the bench, cus I really do like to please people (not going to change, so don't tell me to toughen up). And I really do suck at this game, sure I could put in another 1000 hrs and be a little better at mind games and such, but at this point its pretty painful. I have consistently sucked at Clown, Billy, Bubba, Dr, Hag etc. Granted I got up to rank 5 with Legion and the higher quality of survivor has been part of the problem.

My last game I finally started to feel good with Bubba, I was downing survivors, got 3 separate ones hooked and four total hooks. I got lots of chases and 3 chainsaw downs. Sure not much but it wasn't completely terrible, then when I only got 3 pip points for the match I lost it (and went and typed this). Seriously dipped by that much even at rank 13 after regression. I feel I'm done, I want to enjoy this game, but its very hard right now. Granted my reflexes aren't that awesome and I'm not hardcore grinding out games for the last 2 weeks. I have a little over 400 hrs in and was really enjoying this game till this.....

    You say you did pretty well with Leatherface, so try to master Billy, the better form of Leatherface. Doesn’t take too long and he is the most viable killer in my opinion. Not add-on or perk dependent and is a top threat to any survivor.

    You’ll also have to grind your way to some good perks eventually (besides Enduring as it comes with Billy) such as; Hex: Ruin, Bamboozle, BBQ, MYC (excellent on Billy), Nurses Calling, Sloppy Butcher.

    Some people will learn at a different pace, be patient and put in the time. Eventually you’ll be able to predict survivors moves and memorize most of the maps layouts and where the next vault/pallet will be.


    Good luck!
