1 reason why Legion is underwhelming
Their add-ons... only few of them you will usually use (+power duration and -power recovery time), many other are trash like, overnerfed or needing complete rework.
pins
They are terrible, you know it.
Smiley Face Pin
A friendly looking, bright yellow button used as a sarcastic statement.
- Attacks in Feral Frenzy apply 20% Mangled Status Effects
- Doesn't Stack
Defaced Smiley Pin
A once friendly looking, bright yellow button of a defaced smiley. A signature icon of The Legion.
- Fully Mended Survivors suffer from the Exhausted Status Effect for 60 seconds
The Legion Pin
A handmade button with the face of The Legion. To use exclusively on intimidation dares.
- Fully Mended Survivors suffer from the Broken Status Effect for 60 seconds
+ Killer Instinct Range
Killer Insticnt information is very good, but these add-ons confuse me bcs its harder to determine how far are the Survivors. You can make a mistake and start running after the survivor who is too far away. How to fix it.
Friendship Bracelet
A wide grey and red braided rope bracelet. The inscription "F. J. S. J." can be seen, crudely written in bold black ink.
- Increases the Killer Instinct's detection range by 4 metres
- Increases the Feral Frenzy movement speed by 0.12 m/s when the Killer Instinct is activated

- Increases the Killer Instinct's detection range by 6 metres
- Increases the Feral Frenzy movement speed by 0.16 m/s when the Killer Instinct is activated

Susie's Mix Tape
A fast and thrilling mix tape with energising songs with break-neck beats.
- Increases the Killer Instinct's detection range by 10 metres
- Increases the Feral Frenzy movement speed by 0.2 m/s when the Killer Instinct is activated
Fatigue reduction
These add-ons are definitely overnerfed, Julie's mix tape reduces fatigue duration by 0.2 seconds, its nothing! My ideas:
Julie's Mix Tape
A dark and depressing mix tape made out from mainly power ballads and gloomy melodies.
- Reduces the Fatigue duration by 0.5 seconds
- Clears vision during Fatigue by 33%
- Doesn't Stack
Joe's Mix Tape
A mix of bangin' tracks and slammin' beats for chillaxin' when life's a #########.
- Reduces the Fatigue duration by 0.7 seconds
- Clears vision during Fatigue by 50%
- Doesn't Stack
Cold Durt
A handful of dirt collected from the janitor's final resting place. It is unnaturally cold.
- Reduces the Fatigue Duration by 1 second
- Clears vision during Fatigue by 75%
- Doesn't stack
other
Stab Wounds Study
A printed medical article stolen from Ormond's public library, vulgarising a study on lesions and stab wounds.
- Reduces the Deep Wound Timer of all Survivors by 25 seconds
- Fully mended Survivors suffer from the 5% Hindered Status Effect for 60 seconds
Frank's Mix Tape
Never go on a kill mission without your tunes. A track list of massive distortions and loud percussion that stabs at your eardrums.
- Missed attacks don't make you leave Feral Frenzy
- Increases Feral Frenzy movement speed by 0.2 m/s
- Reduces Vault durations during Feral Frenzy to 1 second
- Reduces movement speed during Fatigue by 50%

Re: Legion Pin. The garbage activation requirement is not the only problem with this add-on. The Broken effect is contradictory with his main strength, aka making survivors waste time healing, you kinda don't want to dissuade them from doing that.
So imo it also needs a different effect. Like lowered repair speed

And that's why the devs are changing their add-ons, or at least the Pins.
0 -
that along with like 5 more reasons
2 -
1 reason?
His frenzy is actually quite slow when it should be faster so you can actually catch the people you detect?
1 -
Change or buff their addons and buff his basekit as well. Then he might be fixed and at least a little more viable
0 -
The next reason is he doesn't have an actual power. His power is getting to hit someone once then you have nothing. His power is supposedly to chain hits yet they make that extremely hard for legion to do. He literally has no power.
2 -
You shouldn't make add-ons to pursue things that his base kit should already have.
1 -
The reason they were underwhelming for me was the fact that their power is kinda bland. When I heard that the legion was going to be a group of killers, I was really interested in what direction they would take that in and how they could work that into the game. I thought it would be a very new, creative idea.
0 -
Fuming mis tape the ultra rare is also bad at doing its job.
Once you get a hit with FF you lose the ability to see gens. No gen auras no seeing gen progress no using the add-on.

I faced mostly legions yesterday, one legion player in particular that I encountered showed me that legion can be good in the right hands, although most legions lost hard.
1 -
It's more dependent on the Player and the Perks. Just because Legion is playable doesn't really mean he's fun in his current state. I still love them for their design and lore thou...
0 -
Just please can Legion get a overhaul, not a power rework but some love please.
0 -
Fun is subjective though, no killer is fun for everyone. Legion is pretty high on my fun tier list, right after Clown and LF.
0 -
Yes, please.
1 -
Peanits said that Nurse add on rework was first priority, Legion, Leatherface, etc are upcoming.
1 -
I think that was Queen actually.
0 -
Yep.
Finally the words we had like to hear for so long. I just hope that the next Legion patch has also the Legion mains in mind. Not just the part of the survivors who have a high skill-level in writing nerf threads.
But Groot... You really like the killers, that are official considered as weak, right?
I mean... the Clown... really? ..... Really? O_O
I have play him also sometimes, as I still had play dbd and I had never got warm with him.
I would take Meyers everytime above the Clown, or also the Trapper would be a good choice^^.
It has something satisfying if the survivors run into your traps that all lay around loop spots - while the survivors had think that their holly loop spots would safe them *smiles sinister*.
0 -
Yep, I’m a fan of the weak killers. :) the main thing I’d like for legion is a smaller cooldown and faster vault speed but I’m happy with any buffs. :P Trapper is also pretty fun. :)
0 -
Well Trapper was for me always one of the best killers. I guess for the Clown, I was never really the player type. In some things you are just bad and that I was definitely with the Clown^^.
0 -
Out of curiosity, do you know who he is? HIs steam name or something?
Because i think i faced you yesterday or 2 days ago and got a 4k.
0 -
missing a hit and not losing power should be base kit don't know how missing a hit and losing the power even got put into the game
1 -
I’m on PS4
0 -
Well, then it wasn't you ^^
Nvm

Uhhh gonna have to disagree.
Legion's power in general is not good at all because survivors can easily recover from the deep wound (if you even manage to deep wound more than 2 survivors that is).
Not only that, the duration is small, missing a single attack will deplete the power, no scratch marks or blood trails (the most stupid thing) and if you happen to be near a survivor that is deep wounded, its paused because you are within his terror radius.
The whole power in general was rushed and its a bloody mess (not to mention the pin addons are bugged atm and i think they won't be fixed for the next 6 months)
0 -
Please tell us what this Legion did.
0 -
I can’t really describe what all they did since I can’t be in four places at once, I was solo so it might’ve been my mates but they destroyed us each time I found them.
0 -
Tbh from the sound of that I blame your mates. Objectively he's just worst than most of the killers. It is of course not rare to see someone consistently 4k with an awful killer. That doesn't mean the killer is good in anyway.
0 -
The thing is...
Legion doesn't have much so that you can say "I'm a very good Legion player". The Legion skill is based on how well you calculate distance by time and don't miss hits/know how to not eat pallets.
But these aspects can be done with any killer and Legion NEEDS to be smart.
A Legion can only say "I'm a very good Legion player" when they know how to time their power right and get shortcuts to get survivors more easily. This is the only thing "unique" that his power has to offer atm.
0 -
The add-on changes would be nice but I would like their speed changes reverted, they're too slow and struggle to catch up to people, the 1st Survivor is ok but you're lucky if you can catch the 2nd.
