Question regarding Legacy cosmetics

Would players be against the Devs reintroducing Legacy cosmetics for the other survivors? Excluding the Original four survivors, 3 killers, Licensed survivors and killers and The Last Breath Chapter)

If yes, how would one be given the chance to earn these cosmetics? Through a Legacy event? Would be interesting to see something like this for the 5 year anniversary. Given the opportunity to fully get 6 pieces to one survivor and one killer of the available ones.

Or, are the Halloween cosmetics supposed to be the reintroduction of legacy part 2?

I am just asking as I would love to see Legacy David. :3

    I personally don't want them to ruin cosmetics that are special which they already did for everything except legacy.

    The thing is legacy was simply ridiculous to get it was a true grind, I don't really want them to add any since it shows who are the vet players of the beginning.

    As for an event i'd rather get more interesting skins not a rip off of true legacy because it's on other characters.

    I think the Blighted cosmetIcs fill this role without the grind though.

    Sorry, but not even close.

    I'd take outfits based on hours and characters played. For example if I mainly play Dwight and I have a few hundred hours I could unlock a cosmetic that's part of a set but that you can't buy for money or shards. Give me an incentive to play a certain character and make the cosmetics worth while. Imagine if there were cosmetics similar to Legacy but have a different pattern and color to them that you can get through play time on one character.

    If I saw a Jeff with (As an example) 500 hour play time with all 3 of his cosmetics and they were designed based on Jeff, it would make me want to sink hours into him to get it. I feel like it would be like mount farming in wow. People throw several days away just to farm old school mounts. I believe many people would do the same here.

    Would definitely be cool. It would make each survivor unique and special to play them.

    It would not be fair for legacy owners to make another legacy event, it's a special cosmetic that was given to people that grinded the heck out of the game when it came out.

    As a non legacy player I don't think that is fair.

    The value of the cosmetic would be lost even if it was for other characters.

    Which is why I'm of the mindset of what I said above. Keep Legacy old and unique. Let those few that have it keep it. But make up new stuff for play hours for specific characters. Lets be honest, once you get all the perks every single survivor is the same. Let us have a cool cosmetic tied to our play time that says "I missed Legacy but hey, I got this cool set for 500+hours after the fact".

    If they were to bring Legacy back, I think they should do a "Legacy Bloodweb". Once you get to P3-50 with one of the original characters (Dwight, Meg, Claudette, Jake, Nea, Trapper, Wraith, Billy and Nurse) you can prestige again, but for Legacy cosmetics. However, the grind to 1 - P3 would be the same as the 2016 Bloodweb, in order to make it fair.

    I have seen a similar suggestion somewhere else and I think it is a very good idea.

    What I'd want to see is some sort of reward system for the more characters you get to Prestige 3 Level 50. Say you get 1 character to Prestige 3 Level 50 you get 100k bloodpoints, at 5 characters you unlock three cosmetics of your choice for free, 10 characters you get 10k free auric cells, 15 characters you unlock one full chapter for free (original/of your choosing)

    Obviously those wouldn't be the rewards if something like that would happen and that's just random rewards assigned to something. I think if they toned down the grind and added a reward system for the more characters you max out, people would be more willing to try new characters and go through prestige. Maybe I just like prestige a little much who knows.

    I'd rather keep the excusive (I didn't prestige anyone back then which I regret, but I still believe it's fair the way it is)
