Killer Instinct For Feral Frenzy Needs Fixing
So, the reason for this post is to point out that the status effect Oblivious hurts Legion.
Now, it makes complete sense why Undetectable has a huge impact on Legion because their Killer Instinct is tied directly into the TR, so if they don't have one, then they will not be able to detect survivors post Frenzy hit.
But, when it comes to Oblivous, you still have a TR, it's merely the survivor that cannot perceive it.
I recently tested this out in a custom game with 3 friends. I used Iridescent Button with Hex: Plaything, hooked them all and had them unhooked, then, just to make sure there was no possible bugs, I moved further than 32m away, entered Feral Frenzy and then asked them if they could hear my TR. They all couldn't hear it, I then tagged one of them and discovered you could not detect anyone else with Killer Instinct.
I'm pretty sure you'll agree this is dumb considering your TR still exists, it's just they are prevented from hearing it.
Devs you have to fix this, it limits what builds you can use on an already weak killer.

Yeah, no doubt Legion needs a lot of tweaks to remedy some pretty daft power mechanics. But this seems more like an oversight than a design decision, since Oblivious was introduced long after Legion was already in the game. Weird that a non-lethal killer has so much going against them on top of that XD

I doubt it. I think its intentional so that Legion cannot use killer perk "Hysteria". I remember the days when Legion could use sloppy butcher and stbfl when his ability was a basic attack.

So the only reason it detects them is because the add-on extends the range not the TR. Maybe it isn't an oversight then? :/
Maybe Susie's Tape with Iridescent Button is worth testing...but then again I doubt they would work together, but you never know with this game lol i'll try it out later on.

Could be, but their power is non-lethal and they aren't exactly quiet in Frenzy. I think the devs need a fresh perspective about Legion. They seem to think making their power function at any level above what they are now they'd be oppressive and strong. They wouldn't lol
