The Legion's double stun.

While Feral Frenzy is active, hitting a Survivor that is currently afflicted with the Deep Wound Status Effect:

*Reduces a portion of the Survivor's Deep Wound bleed-out timer.
*Depletes The Legion's entire power gauge and ends the power immediately.

So, currently on PTB when The Legion hits anyone in the Deep Wound state, they wipe their blade and go into the "fatigue". Is this intended or a bug? Because it feels hindering hitting a Deep Wounded survivor since you get double stunned, they could be way more viable and fun if they only had to wipe or only had to enter fatigue.

    It’s really bad and wastes a lot of time.

    Nurse’s fatigue and attack cooldown happen at the same time, so I’m not sure why Legion’s power is like this.

    I’m hoping it’s just a bug.

    It feels like they made the power for mass attacks and since you have to mend before you heal, it's discouraging tunneling the survivor with that power. You can still hit them normally and they go down as usual.

    It definitely is, but the power doesn’t last long enough if the survivors aren’t right next to each other.

    Additionally, Legion only has 110% movement speed and a relatively long cooldown.

    This makes moving around the map and attacking multiple survivors difficult, despite his power leaning towards that playstyle and punishing you otherwise.

    Legion is really fun, but some parts of his kit are really counterintuitive.

    As long as you don't hit a wounded survivor tho, you should be able to keep that frenzy speed for as long as the power lasts. How long is it?

    Maybe we just need to mess around with the right combo. STBFL may be good with him.

    STBFL is alright when you’re able to chain attacks on multiple survivors.

    However, because of the short duration and Legion’s 110% movement speed, it makes it difficult to get different survivor hits.

    It resets when attacking survivor without the Deep Wound status, yes. But that’s not always possible because of what I previously stated.

    And in the situations where you can only hit a lone survivor, the power can’t down them in one use and STBFL is a lot less useful because of Legion’s fatigue on top of the attack cooldown.

    I'll give it a week or two. By then, I'd think people will know how to exploit his power... that is if the PTB can retain its playerbase.

    Thank god, this is fixed. Not too long ago, updates on The Legion’s changes have been uploaded on “news”. Legion now goes into fatigue instead of wiping his knife then fatiguing
