Buff to Legions mending

Instead of survivors mindlessly mending how about add skill checks

The way it would work would be like this

If a survivor is within the killers terror radius the timer does not go down

Mending bar still goes down even while mending

if a survivor misses a skill check reduce mending bar by 25% and reduce mending timer by 20% meaning if the survivors miss a skill check while timer is at its absolute lowest pointor around the 20% mark they will go into the dying state

Numbers are just examples

I feel like this could be a nice little buff to legion especially after he was completely neutered after EGC

Thoughts?

    Deep wounds and mending needs to be more of a threat. Right now, its a minor annoyance. I think skill checks and penalties should occur. I also think it should be considered a healing action as well, with all penalties or aids associated.

    I agree with the posts above me on number 2 solely due to how the reason legion was very aggravating to play against was the sole fact that he would let the survivor get away so the timer would go down and then just moonwalk towards them as they mend for an easy down. It didn’t take any skillful plays and it wasn’t a very fun game mechanic. But maybe putting skill checks and having the failed skill checks decrease the timer could work as a replacement to buff the legions deep wound ability. But that would mean Nurses calling also should not work with mending also for the legion would become a little to strong.

    @Horror_Gaming @Tru3Lemonit would work the same way so they can't moonwalk towards them if they are in the terror radius the timer does not go down

    Skill checks are too easy to matter.

    That said, Legion does need buffs.

    I'd like if FF hits on injured players gave a drastically longer Mend timer. This wouldn't make it more deadly but at least more punishing in time wasting if they refuse to heal.

    Perks that affect healing should also affect Mend.

    I'd touch on his addons but they already said they were looking at tweaking them.

    The biggest thing hindering him isn't his design though, it's poor map design. There's too many pallets and windows to make staying injured dangerous.
