What The Legion Could Have Been
The Legion
Shared Power: We are Legion
The Legion starts the game disguised as a random survivor. The Legion has no terror radius while disguised and is revealed when within a certain distance to a survivor for a certain amount of time and only to the survivor that reveals them. When revealed The Legion’s appearance is replaced with their true form but does not otherwise alert the survivor. The closer a survivor is the quicker The Legion is revealed
While disguised:
· The Legion has no terror radius and aura revealing perks have no effect (Ex: Object of Ob.)
· The Legion may perform any action a normal survivor can perform except for throwing down pallets.
o If The Legion is stunned while disguised their aura is revealed to all survivors for several seconds and their disguise is broken
· The Legion can work on generators at a reduced speed (50%) and are not affected by killer perks affecting a generator (Ex: Overcharge, Ruin)
o Other survivors working on a gen with The Legion trigger skill checks 20% more often
· Slightly recharges Feral Frenzy while disguised
Shared Power: Feral Frenzy
When Revealed:
· By pressing M2 The Legion can shed their disguise and run at 125% movement speed for 15s. During this time they act as a normal killer with 32m terror radius. They can vault pallets and windows much like a survivor during Feral Frenzy but lose both this ability and the speed boost when they strike a survivor.
· Feral Frenzy can be used at any time but does not recharge while not disguised.
· The Legion’s power to disguise themselves can be reapplied by entering a locker and waiting several seconds to recharge the ability. Feral Frenzy recharges dramatically faster in a locker, working on a generator or remaining near other survivors while disguised.
o While disguised you may enter a locker to change survivor skins
o Exiting the locker via sprint-exit activates the power again
· After downing a survivor The Legion can Indoctrinate them, placing a jacket and mask on them similar to their own.
o While part of The Legion the survivor shares some of their disguised traits
§ When within a certain distance to another survivor they reveal themselves like The Legion’s power, giving themselves a 10m terror radius and the red stain for 5s.
o While indoctrinated the survivors hear The Legion’s laughter every so often
----The Legion comes in many forms, each form has a different addition to the powers they use---

How do you determine which legion member you appear as?

Destroyed by SWF and any survivor with half a brain.

Same as currently with the cosmetics you choose. However we would need a base cosmetic for Joe and Susie

That's just a Killer that's 4 times as hard to balance then. If you are going to incorporate all 4 members mechanically then you need to be able to access all 4 in the same trial, otherwise there is no point other than to over complicate the Killer.

I think if the concept is going to be four killers as one then the power needs to be complicated and the killers distinct in some way. Minor buffs to different parts of the power to make them somewhat unique. They do not need to be overly different like Frank's and Susie's examples. Minor buffs also make them easier to balance then the mess of today.
Having all four in one trial seems more complicated and difficult to implement.

You had me, up until the indoctrination thing... That's just kinda stupid. They're a gang, not a brainwashing cult. Everyone is in of their own free will.
Also, literally made completely useless against SWF
