Anyone else fed up with playing against Legion?

I have no problem with buffing weak killers, and certainly Legion were pretty weak prior to buffs. This isn’t a complaint about Legion’s buffs but rather the terrible design of that killer. It’s just so annoying to spend the entire match mending constantly. I’d rather go against killers that can down you immediately than go through the endless slog of getting stabbed and mending over and over again. Matches take forever and it’s just not fun at all. Do any survivors actually enjoy these types of matches?

    I might enjoy new Legion since it means I always get Renewal to go off

    Wish they buffed another killer this patch alongside Legion.

    Me. It's just as boring as before but now it's like 3 out of 5 matches it's a legion that's why people are now noticing how boring it is to go against.

    Dont use boons or self care and I still find it boring.

    I understand that it is your main, but I also always mained Freddy and I could admit he could be boring to go against before.

    I'm mending way more often than I used to so it's just constant mending/game delay making the match go on for so long with very little reward. It's just wicked boring.

    I haven't actually faced a single Legion since the update came out. I've had a few Ghost Faces but no Legions I can recall offhand. Maybe one, tops.

    I just t-bag a little extra in the gates. It's good to see a new killer in rotation, but it's just one that has an annoying mechanic to play against built-in. They're similar to Pinhead in that it can be Solo Q NIghtmare when people haven't learned their basic counters and don't work together. Their ability to snowball and go off early-mid game makes it do or die if you aren't coordinated.

    My last match as a Legion I had a couple of really smart survivors who would take protection hits for others or body block me in doorways after I'd hit them and they still had deep wound to stop chain hits. Really threw a wrench into my chain frenzies that match.

  • Aven_Fallen

    Survivors have to hold M1 for 5x80 seconds on Gens to actually have a chance to escape.

    The Mending time is not instead of holding Gens, it is on top of it.

    Not that hard to understand tbh.

    Personally I hate going against doctor, sitting holding m1 to get rid of all the madness is boring. Yet I still play the game and you will never see me ask for Doc to be changed, removed, nerfed.... the entire game is holding m1.

  • C3Tooth
    C3Tooth Member Posts: 8,266

    Well, against Doctor, you get out of his Tier3 five times per match at best. Legion on the other hand...

    The Deep wound mechanic should change. Make it more punishing to not mending, but not forcing to mend.

    Not used to games lasting longer than 5 minutes, I don't mind facing Legion because I get a large amount of bloodpoints and emblems. He slows the ridiculous genrush down a bit but still gets looped hard.

    Much better than a Nurse/Blight/Bubba game that's over one minute after it starts. The outcome is predictable in SoloQ.

    the difference is very few played them during this perioud. The buffs have made legion stronger and he's the new shiny thing to play with so survivors are getting over exposed to a mechanic that we hated all along.

  • dugman
    dugman Member Posts: 9,713

    To be fair, while Mending itself didn’t change, the chance Legion can get multiple hits in a single Frenzy was noticeably improved so they’re getting more Deep Wounds per Frenzy use now.

  • MrPeanutbutter

    I’ve always hated going against Legion because of their mechanics. I understand it’s nothing new. I never saw Legion much before the buffs because they were so weak, but they’re in at least half of my survivor matches now. Maybe it will get better over time as the novelty wears off.

  • DrDeepwound
    DrDeepwound Member Posts: 2,557

    not really, I have said all along, I used to get more deepwound chain hits with old addons and feral frenzy range addons.

    The only thing that changed was some speed between hits, but mending more than then? nah not at all

  • Munqaxus
    Munqaxus Member Posts: 2,752

    The buffs to Legion have definitely caused me to move to different games. The second the developers mentioned they were going to buff Legion, I just groaned inside. But honestly, the who mid-season patch was a big FU to survivors, so whatever.

  • dugman
    dugman Member Posts: 9,713

    I do know for sure Legions running No Sleep Pills are getting multiple hits per use, although obviously the time between them can be pretty long (10-20 seconds per hit). The extra speed Legion gets in the base kit does help them too, at least compared to the old base kit. (I can’t speak to the old add-ons though.)

    Weird that the face camping Bubbas, endless tunnellers, meta Nurses etc. didn't stop you, but C Tier Legion spreading damage around is too much.

    What if mending was optional?

    You no longer have to mend, but Deep Wounds causes exhaustion

  • Munqaxus
    Munqaxus Member Posts: 2,752

    Nope, those things definitely helped too. But honestly, I just don't want to have to deal with mending over and over again. I've dealt with it before and it was miserable, not worth me wasting time on the game for a miserable experience. I'll wait until the developers nerf or change Legion. Or I'll play killer so I can avoid it completely.

  • Nos37
    Nos37 Member Posts: 4,142

    I keep hitting survivors, but they just keep running off and patching up with Circle of Healing. It's just wicked boring.

  • Lynxx

    I think I got it finally why Legion sucks...

    You get punished enough for other survivor's mistakes, with Legion you get punished even more.

  • RoboMojo
    RoboMojo Member Posts: 1,326

    Not really. They're a bit annoying, but their counter play has remained largely the same. Split up at all times and you're golden

  • bm33
    bm33 Member Posts: 8,274

    So Legion gameplay increasing that gameplay is boring for killer as well, good to know.

  • lauraa

    That's the mistake survivors keep making; us Legion players have ALWAYS been here....we've just been playing other killers.

  • Knytrix
    Knytrix Member Posts: 59

    To be fair to the survivors most killers run the same 4 perks most the time as well the difference is survivors can get rid of hex powers instantly, while killers have to deal with boons the entire match.

  • Knytrix

    Just make it so either when you snuff out the totem it breaks or you can only bless each totem one time per match easy fix

    I'm tired of playing against that bastard.

    He used to be the most hated killer by me, with his "Rage" - especially because this scum can see even if you hide in the closet - and now, after the update, I immediately quit the game if Legion.

    And considering that 90% of the players playing for the killers are extremely toxic players, it is absolutely impossible to play against the Legion.

    So, calmly levite if you play against him. Not a great loss.

  • Knytrix
    Knytrix Member Posts: 59

    Legion isnt even that bad with a unlimited heal perk. Before coh was a thing I would agree but not with that perk in the game it just balances the scale.

  • Knytrix
    Knytrix Member Posts: 59

    Sad to say unless you want to be a basement bubba the only counters to coh is legion and plague right now why you see so many of them.
