Something caught my attention, and it would be really neat for repenstation. Since we are in the ever lasting console wars,oo you think we could bring back Legacy for console player's & also give other PC players a chance to get legacy ,but for console ours should be distinct from PC.I guess blue legacy would be for Playstation, Green legacy for Xbox and red legacy for Switch,I'm guessing Stadia and PC would have the same color's,but this would be really cool.I guess we'll all be playing DBD for awhile so why not.Please do not make them purchasable, as it sucks the fun out of earning them.

    Bring back? I've never seen a blue legacy or even green.

    That does look pretty damn cool.

    I don't think legacy cosmetics should be given out in any capacity. I say this as someone who does not have them. I don't think it's fair on those that had to grind for ages in 2016 when it was very very hard to level up and progress in the game.

    Legacy cosmetics were given out as a reward for people's dedication to the ridiculously grindy bloodwebs, which we no longer experience. So it is not fair if we are suddenly just allowed to have them and earn them.

    Besides that doesn’t even look like a legacy skin I’ve seen them online that looks more like it could be a event skin or something cool but not a legacy I mean I could see there being a glyph event where there’s 3 colours of glyphs in a map each having a drawback but if you escape or kill all 4 after grabbing one a set number of times you get the skin ( 2colours a blue or green one depending on what one you want and a red one for killers)

    To be fair the devs also said a lot of things. I also think that if there is enough of an uproar that decision could change.

    Right. But they also said they'd never give out the exclusive past events items like the BBQ event stuff/exclusive event cosmetics and here we are!

    They've said numerous times Legacy isn't coming back ever, it def would alienate the players who delt with the ######### to get it back then,

    I mean fair enough if they release an event skin similar to this, but it should not be called legacy or have anything to do with it. Although, if they were to do an event tied to glyphs, I don't think that the cosmetics created for it would look like that and I don't know if I would want them to if people would just view them as legacy.

    I find it confusing why people still ask for it even though the devs have said that it will never come back and it would be very unfair to bring it back.

  • YuisPinkBob

    In this case I do not think that the devs would change their minds. It would just disregard the time and effort that 2016 players had to put in to level and progress.

    I recognise that event cosmetics also had to be earned, but it was much easier to do this than what players had to do to earn legacy. I personally didn't like the fact that they released the cosmetics because I worked for them, but I'd be way more upset if they planned on giving out legacy because I definitely did not earn it nor deserve it.

  • ill_Boston_lli

    Im not saying they should give it out. Im saying make it earnable. Even if we have to earn it the same way as before.

  • YuisPinkBob
    YuisPinkBob Member Posts: 354

    It won't be possible to earn it the way it was earnt before because the bloodweb is way less grindy than it once was and the devs aren't just going to change it back just so people can earn legacy. Plus the grind would just anger people, like it once did.

    Can we please just let players who earnt it have it and stop trying to take away their reward. It's not fair on them.

    I just want the Legacy I rightfully earned to be given back to me after the data loss fiasco around when Hag came out.

    But that'll never happen unfortunately.

    It's not the same thing. Just a cool cosmetic.

    Not to mention the fact that some people like me LOST theirs, and are never getting it back. As long as they make it hard to earn, I see no problems with this.

  • CoalTower

    Its not fair on US that we lost our legacy.

    I'd be fine if they reverted it again, so that I could get back my Nurse legacy. As long as the people who lost it can get it back, it's not unfair unless there's another way, which there's NOT.

    I think I have a good idea to bring Legacy back in a way old Legacy players could enjoy. People often say the old Legacy players deserve their cosmetics because of their tedious grind, and this I'm not objecting too. If newer players want Legacy (2.0) they'd have to grind extremely hard for it like the other legacy players had to. Also, this Legacy won't go away and it's Purple (the direct opposite of Yellow on the color wheel)

    (Extremely Rough Draft not able to be drawn, I hope you can visualize it based off my descriptions)

    So below the rift icon on the survivor/survivor lobby is another tab like it (but with a different icon to tell it apart), this is the "Survivor/Killer Expertise" Tab that allows you to get 4 charms (3 of their perks and the final tier being a portrait of the character like the picture seen below) and the Legacy 2 Cosmetics.

    To earn the charms and pieces, you must progress the "Survivor/Killer Expertise" Tap by "leveling up" the character. Not the way of the bloodweb (although you do need to be prestiged to get Legacy 2.0) but by doing repetitive challenges.

    (using Ace as my example as he's my main, the progress of past levels don't carry over))

    Level 1 (Open-Handed Charm): Complete 25 trials, do repair work of a total of 50 gens, be chased for 1,200 seconds, escape 10 matches, unhook 20 survivors

    Level 2 (Legacy Damask Shirt & Jacket): Be prestige 1, Complete 30 trials, do repair work of a total 60 gens, be chased for 1,440 seconds, escape 12 matches, unhook 24 survivors

    Level 3 (Up The Ante Charm): Complete 35 trials, do repair work of a total of 70 gens, be chased for 1,680 seconds, escape 14 matches, unhook 28 survivors

    Level 4 (Legacy Lucky Jeans): Be Prestige 2, Complete 40 trials, do repair work of a total of 80 gens, be chased for 1,920 seconds, escape 16 matches, unhook 32 survivors

    Level 5 (Ace in the Hole Charm): tired of doing math, at this point it'd be Level 1 challenges but multiplied by 1.8

    Level 6 (Legacy Ace Head): tired of doing math, at this point it'd be the Level 1 challenges but multiplied by 2, and you need to be prestige 3

    Level 7 (The Character Portrait Charm): tired of doing math, at this point it'd be the Level 1 challenges but multiplied by 2.2


    If you did it all, congrats. It only took you the absolute minimum of 280 trials on 1 character. Even if you didn't care about the self portrait and only wanted the Legacy 2.0 cosmetics up to the head, that'd still be at least 225 trials. The idea was to make it so people constantly wanting Legacy to be able to get something like it, at the cost of a horrendous grind, and to make it so Legacy isn't about how long you've been with the game but more about how long you've been with a character.

    This is a thought I only recently came up with, so I'd like feedback even if all you do is tell me I suck.

    That's also my point, people who lost them can try to earn them back. It's not fair that there are players who have these unique items such as Legacy and DG Meg mask ,and the H20 mask without having a chance to earn them also

    It's not fair to player's who play the game for 8 hours a day and don't earn any incentives,we should get something for our time.

    If everybody has it, they aren't cool any more. Too bad.

    License legacy 😉 too! Some of are dedicated to those character's. Imagining seeing a legacy Michael Myers in the blue drip

  • YuisPinkBob

    I'm genuinely sorry that happened and I wish that you could get it back. That doesn't change my stance though, I think the only way to make it fair to earn would be revert it and that's not going to happen, which is unfortunate for those who lost it, but not for those who didn't earn it. I truly wish there was another way to give back legacy to those who lost it without removing its significance in the game. Which is what would occur if everyone could just earn/have it.

    Reverting it would be fine by me. It could be an event called something like "Turn Back the Pendulum". Would be pretty nice. They would reset everything to the day Nurse came out, meaning everything completely broken would be in the game, the bloodweb would be pre-rework, and obviously, most of the killers wouldn't be there. The only modern thing they'd have is crossplay.


    This event could last for maybe a month or so, and would give dedicated players a chance to earn legacy, and people like me to get it back.

  • YuisPinkBob
    YuisPinkBob Member Posts: 354

    It's a fun idea, definitely. I wouldn't mind that. Although, I just am personally doubtful that they would do that as it seems like a lot of hassle for them and it could mess up some things in the game when the event finishes.

  • CoalTower

    True. It probably would be stuck in that version and they'd take another 5 years to get the game to where it is now 😂

    I really love this idea!

    But what if we could choose the color we wanted to go for. And we could only choose one to grind for in game.

    I have played right before spirit came out. And I can cound less than 5 fingers on how many players I have seen using any form of legacy cosmetics. I think plp should use it more than hiding it. Wish I played this game in 2016. Gosh
