Legion build?

No, you are totally fine! All questions are welcome!

As for your build, I do think it has too much anti-heal. The Survivors simply won't heal and they will rush gens, leaving you an M1 Killer without any stall.

Personally, I have two builds that seem to work well for me.

The first is:

Thana, I'm All Ears, Ruin and PGTW

Stolen Sketch Book and Legion Pin

The point is to get people broken and get confirmed value out of Thana. Ruin and PGTW allow for gen regression and I'm All Ears is a good chase perk. Survivor's are encouraged to heal once you get all of them injured.

Second is as follows:

Sloppy, M&A, Ruin and PGTW

Yellow Pin and Stolen Sketch Book

Allows you to keep Survivor's injured and no matter what they get the Mangled status. If they chose to heal, they waste a ton of time. M&A allows for some fast downs as they have less time to get away, Ruin and PGTW for gen regression.

Hope this helps!

@Scrimshaw

I wanted to add a bit more to this, as I wasn't too clear above due to being on mobile.

first, your build

I like the concept, it's a pretty solid combo as said above.

But I wanted to go a bit more in-depth with it for you, just so you can get a better idea on what to combine and use.

Your build is solid for an anti-healing build, but if you're new and struggle with keeping generators active, than I have another build idea for you after this. But for now, we'll talk about what you're using and what I can add to this.

A recreation of your build

Try this, this will focus on anti-healing but also give you some leeway for anti-gen progression as well. Use Pop Goes the Weasel, Coulrophobia, Sloppy Butcher, and Nurse's Calling.

• Pop Goes The Weasel [A Clown perk] (This perk is very solid for any build and is one of the most used perks currently in the top tier meta. Pop Goes The Weasel is simple, once you hook a Survivor Pop Goes The Weasel with activate. When Pop Goes The Weasel is active, you have a 40/50/60 second count-down to use it, to use PGTW you kick any generator that's currently be repaired, this will give it a 25% flat regression penalty when PGTW is active, and once kicked PGTW will de-activate until it's next use. PGTW is very good for keeping generators in line, and you can use it with Legion to avoid using Ruin with the build)
• Coulrophobia [A Clown perk] (Survivors within your Terror Radius will gain a 30%/40%/50% penalty to healing speed. This is pretty solid with how Legion works, and when combined with the Nasty Blade + Filthy Blade add-ons it can make mending and healing a very long process. Usually Survivors would heal more with Thanatophobia active, this build is to make them heal less and continue to be injured for most of the game.)
• Sloppy Butcher (This is a very solid perk on any Legion build. Simply put, Sloppy Butcher will apply the Mangled and Haemmorrhage status effects on a Survivor. Depending on the Tier of Sloppy Butcher, it'll also cause Survivors to Slightly/Moderately/Considerably bleed at a increased rate. This perk is pretty solid for any Legion, but when combined with Coulrophobia, it can do some massive damage to healing speeds. And with Nurse's Calling you can see any Survivors that're trying to top of their healing within 24 meters, so if you are not 99% when Legion is 24 Meters away, than you're doomed)
• Nurse's Calling [A Nurse perk] (This is important when using a anti-healing build. Not only will the build punish healing, it'll also give the Legion a 24 meter aura reading for any Survivors attempting to heal in that radius. This will make them think twice about healing near or around the area you're in, and it'll let you punish said healing to make them think twice about doing it in-general!)

So for one, don't use Unnerving Presence on Legion. The perk might seem good in practice, but it's honestly not needed on a Killer like Legion. Unnerving Presence is more for Killers like Doctor that work off of a big Terror Radius. And while combining it with Iridescent Pin is a good idea, it's not suited for builds that focus on anti-healing in the first place.

the add-ons you should use with this anti-healing build

In my opinion, you should for sure use Filthy Blade + Nasty Blade. FB and NB is great for increasing mend times and making the concept of healing an even more fruitless effort. If you have to mend for a long time and than heal for a long time, it's better to just stay injured in that case.

It punishes them for healing AND it rewards you with instant downs and PGTW generator kicks. If you can down someone instantly and hook them a lot, than nobody will ever be able to rush the gens quickly, since you'll just be there with a PGTW activation and regress a generator down by 25%

If you feel like experimenting a bit, than you can try using Filthy Blade + Stolen Sketch book for longer Feral Frenzy sprint times, or you can just use the classic Stolen Sketch Book + Mural Sketch that increases your FF activation time by a lot more.

last, my build (a summary)

This should be a better use of Legions powers and give you some leeway to avoid gen-rushing. It rewards the one shot down of the anti-healing build AND benefits you when hooking Survivors, since PGTW will activate and let you regress any generators that're close or half-way from being done.

If you want to experiment with other builds, you can try out the one I use. But I won't go in-depth with this one as that would take a lot more writing and time.

Here's the build I use, Thanatophobia, Pop Goes The Weasel, BBQ & Chili, and Nurse's Calling.

a summary of my build

This build actually works off of Survivors forcefully healing, and rewards you as such. I've used this build a lot in Red Ranks and still 4k with it. The basic summary though is this, Thanatophobia will make Survivors think it's beneficial to heal. Why? Because they want to avoid the penalty it gives to repair speeds, so if they heal I can see them within 24 meters with Nurse's Calling and than down and hook them to regress their generator by 25% with PGTW!

BBQ & Chili comes in after the hook to get a basic idea of any Survivors that may be gen-rushing a gen together or trying to save, if so, I can chain-stab them on the way to the generator that's being worked on by 2 or the rest of the survivors, and once i'm there i'll chain-stab them all and than kick the generator with PGTW still active.

So in a sense i'm rewarded for Survivors that heal around me, and it encourages Survivors to heal more because of Thanatophobia, so the more Survivors that are injured, the more encouraging it is to heal.

the add-ons I use with my build

I mostly just use Stolen Sketch Book + Mural Sketch, it benefits the build because I have a longer FF sprint and I can chain-stab for a lot longer to ensure everyone stays damaged.

I might also use Filthy Blade + Stolen Sketch Book with it, but my most common alternative is Iridescent Pin + Stolen Sketch Book, just so I can break a lot of clumped up pallets and create a bunch of deadzones.

so what is my builds main focus though?

Damage over hooking. It's kind of like the one above, except it encourages healing and punishes it. If nobody heals, than it's as if i'm using a anti-healing build! Players will straight up avoid healing when they know it benefits me, so they'll stay damaged and get downed easily in a lot of the deadzones I created afterwards.

It's a pretty solid build, and it really does show in Red Ranks.

conclusion

I hope this helps you out, its a more in-depth look into what I was getting at above, and maybe it's a lot more informative and helpful to you!

Stay safe out there,

see you in the fog.

Hopefully it helps!

Good luck.

A basement build on Legion...?

I guess that's not really camping, I guess?

If it works for you though than it's an option to use. I just don't see it being a mainstream thing for people to use over other builds, I can just see it being easily circumvented by gen-rushing you while leaving the person on the hook until the time is right, or something like that.

And if you chase someone else, than they can just unhook the basement Survivor and than the build is... meh.

Again, if it works for you than more power to ya.

I pretty much agree with @FireHazard

I think this is a pretty niche build but if you can get it to work, good on you, you must be a way better player than me XD

Right, if the map gives a basement in the middle, than of course it'll work out well. If it doesn't, than the build is kind of null at that point.

The other build also seems like a basement build, but it's more flexible with how it's used at least. I feel that's better than the other, as if the basement aspect doesn't work out, than you at least have the other two perks to use as a back up.

I mean, everything can be niche, but if a player can make use of it than I don't see anything wrong with that.

Not saying you thought it was wrong, i'm just... idk. My point is if it works for him than more power to him.

You still running this build? Personally Ive been running the same build except that I use surge instead of nurses, Ive been looking into using nurses calling on Legion though, you are right this punishes survs for healing and not healing. Im guessing nurses also works while in frenzy right? I only ask because ive never ran it on him.

i usually run:

barbeque and chili: for the bloodpoints, aura reading is also nice

monitor and abuse: a pretty good perk on him, allows you to get closer to the survivors to get a hit on them easier. one drawback is that it increases your killer instinct range, which can screw with you making you believe you can get a frenzy hit when you cant.

corrupt intervention: forces survivors to move into the map more, which can lead to survivors grouping up more. imo its one of the best perks for legion

for the last perk i usually run something random, sometimes shadowborne, or blood echo, or brutal strength.

also, id recommend not using an anti-healing build on him, at least imo. generally you want people to heal when youre the legion, as it wastes their time and you can just get them injured again easily anyway. also, most people just dont choose to heal most of the time, so an anti-healing build is useless imo, tho its up to you.

oh and for add ons i use stolen sketchbook and mural sketch

@FireHazard ok reporting back about how its done for me, this has actually worked so well at keeping up pressure and for someone like legion who van struggle with getting downs this is perfect. If they dont heal I can find them easily through blood and groans and their speed on actions decrease, if they heal i can find them even easier and get a free down, this is definitely staying in my legion kit!

On a side note you use nurses on ur myers too right? Something like nurses, monitor, infectious, pop? Or am i wrong.

PGTW, Sloppy, M&A and Corrupt Intervention.

Defaced Smiley Pin and Etched Ruler.

People will want to heal, but it takes a long time.

Oh no no if you read my comment above I mention about how that build really works for me on Legion and Ill be keeping nurses on my Legion, THEN i go on to talk about your myers build and asking about it. Sorry if it wasnt too clear. See "On a side note you use nurses on ur myers too right? Something like nurses, monitor, infectious, pop? Or am i wrong."
