Legion in 2v8

Short and simple, guy is kinda annoying in 2v8, but my issue with him is the constant mending.

With killer powers adjusted to fit 2v8, couldn't Legion be changed so, if a healthy survivor is hit in frenzy, you just lose the health state, no mending required, if you're already injured and hit in frenzy, then you are put into deep wounds.

That's it, if this would be problematic, would be curious as to why, but feel it would ease some annoyance vs him.

    I see the "idea" they had in that he was "balanced" because a couple other killers do it or something similar, but it seems like his ability that triggers that is much easier to pull off with him.

    It's not really fun or engaging to be looking for a spot to mend every loop run….

    Well that would require a soft rework and I doubt devs will do that however I do thing if we just shorten mending down to like 3 seconds it won't be much of a problem

    you'd remain trackable to legion. Deep wounds masks you from killer instinct.

    I feel like Killers with natural slowdowns don't fit 2v8. Legion is one of the worst picks, but I'd even throw Nemesis into the pot with how the zombies operate. I just know it's gonna be miserable once they start adding Killers from the last few years.

    Except there not gonna do that and you need to accept that. So really the only solution is to continue to makes tweaks to him

    So I could just hit the same Survivors 6 times and down them? Since they don't go into Deep Wound anymore.. I mean..

    Edit: Forget what I said, but I could still hit the same Survivor twice to make the final hit down apply faster.

    Exactly Devs realistically won't so the next best option is to Nerf him more in 2v8

    This would allow Legion to double tap every survivor using Frenzy. You'd STILL be mending, but the Legion would get to the lethal stab faster. You're ironically asking for a Legion buff.

    That was essentially the idea last time. They lowered the mending timer from normal version, but made sure to keep it to prevent Legion from stabbing the same person multiple times. I feel like no matter WHAT it gets lowered to, ppl will still call it a mending simulator because mending isn't actually ppl's problem but rather just the convenient thing to complain about when they really just hate the injuries.

    Yeah I agree but I still think mending should be lower then what it currently is

    I'm probably in the minority here, but I think he's fine as is in 2v8. If Legion is in so many 2v8 games then he's one of the more popular killers to play as that many killer players enjoy. He's mostly a support killer that doesn't get many downs, with 8 survivors in the match healing others is fast and I've yet to see a game with a Legion get more 3 kills.

    I'm also sick of getting Legion AS A PARTNER.
    If BHVR manages to reduce the queue time for killers I'm always dodging lobbies when I'm paired with this braindead crap.

    the mending is fast thats literally not a big deal imo. I'll take Legion over Wraith

    He is weak by himself but with other strong killers while the survivor team majority is injured and kept injured through the match then this is a problem.
