Proper Legion design

It is been a lot of threads about Legion, their gimpness, useless power and overall bad design.

I want to discuss Legion as I see they should be designed according to how they were seen in cinematics beeing blending into survivors team Killers.

Overview

A band of merciless Killers, able to disguise themselves as friends and attack Survivors on the sly with their power, Feral Frenzy. Attacks made during frenzy inflict lingering internal damage, downing any Survivors that are not quick enough to react.

primary Power: Feral frenzy

The Legion has a Frenzy power gauge that builds up over time. The power, Feral Frenzy, can be activated by tapping the Power button or by entering Disguise mode. While active, the power gauge drains rapidly and the power ends when the gauge is empty, triggering an extended recovery cool-down.

Secondary power: Disguise

By using secondary power The Legion transforms into random Survivor, copying one of the Survivors from trial, excluding item. The Legion keeps their weapon in hand visible. Upon transformation Survivors hear distant giggle (for female Legion) or light laughter (for male Legion). Terror Radius of Disguised Legion is always heard for Survivor as is beeing at the edge of TR despite of distance from Legion.

While in Disguise The Legion moves at base movement speed, can't break Pallets and can't attack Survivors with basic M1 attack, has standart Terror Radius, Red Stain is hidden.

Disguise mode has 30 seconds cooldown after revealing The Legion true form.

Powers mechanics

When the power active and not in Disguise mode:

• The Legion sprints faster than base movement speed
• The Legion can vault Pallets, but can't break them
• Survivor's scratchmarks and Blood pools are hidden from view
• Missing attack depletes 50% of remaining power duration, second missed attack ends Feral Frenzy

When the Disguise mode is active:

• The Legion moves at base movement speed
• Feral Frenzy is on and has unlimited duration during Disguise mode
• The Legion can vault Pallets, but can't break them
• Survivor's scratchmarks and Blood pools are hidden from view
• The Legion can attack only with Feral Frenzy power
• Landed attack reveals The Legion from Disguise
• Missed attack reveals The Legion from Disguise and ends Feral Frenzy

While Feral Frenzy is active and not in Disguise mode, hitting Survivor who is not in Deep Wounds status:

• Applies Deep Wounds status effect
• Refills Feral Frenzy duration bar
• Activates Killer Instinct revealing all Survivors who do not have Deep Wounds status effect at the range of 50 meters

While Feral Frenzy is active and in Disguise mode, hitting Survivor who is not in Deep Wounds status:

• Applies Deep Wounds status effect
• Reveals The Legion true form
• Loses unlimited duration and refills duration bar
• Activates Killer Instinct revealing all Survivors who do not have Deep Wounds status effect at the range of 50 meters

While Feral Frenzy is active hitting Survivor who is in Deep Wounds status:

• Ends Feral Frenzy with shortened to 1 second cooldown if Survivor is Healthy
• Ends Feral Frenzy with shortened to 2 seconds cooldown if Survivor is Injured
• Reveals The Legion from Disguise if mode was active

Hitting Survivor with basic M1 attack depletes power bar for 50% of maximum.

Power trivia

• Default duration of Feral Frenzy while not in Disguise - 10 seconds
• Default total Frenzy charge time - 20 seconds
• Default post-Frenzy cooldown - 4 seconds
• Default mending time - 12 seconds
• Default Pallet vault speed - 1.2 seconds

Deep wounds mechanics

The Survivor is on bleed-out timer until healed or mend

Deep Wounds timer is 30 seconds for Healthy Survivor and 15 seconds for Injured Survivor

Deep Wounds applied to Healthy Survivor:

• Do not puts Survivor in Injured state upon hit
• Survivor becomes Injured after healing/mending action
• Survivor is put in Dying state when timer expires
• Deep Wounds timer is on pause while in Terror Radius or during Mend/healing

Deep Wounds applied to Injured Survivor
