More Legion Feedback: Constructive

So the speed increase was amazing and has helped out with their lethality a lot. Focusing on speed is nice and feels just like the original Legion we got last year. The problem is that the Pin add-ons are still bad, they only effect everyone after your first strike which is wrong because you will usually down the person you struck 2nd instead of the first and the first person is the one who is completely safe from you and therefore needs the effect of the Pin add-on which creates pressure. Chnage the Pin add-ons to be on every FF hit and they're fixed. The second problem is that by decreasing the Mend time from 15 to 12 you took away Legion's slowdown power, Survivors are distracted for a less amount of time so the effectiveness of the power is lower and you have acknowledged this but I will say the speed increase does not compensate this change.

If Legion isn't a slowdown Killer then what are they?

If Legion can't slow down Survivors with their ability then the focus needs to be on their traversal and speed, the speed is amazing, thank you. Now by getting rid of the disgusting and completely unfair loss of sight from the FF stun you would make it less punishing to use the ability to run around the map. Decreasing the stun time to 3 or 2.5 seconds would make using the FF for traversal would help them in chases as well and thereby being a fair compensation for not being a slowdown Killer.

Balancing is making everything fair and so far the nerfs outweight the buffs all because of several tiny but very important changes to the base-kit. Legion is almost good, they are almost in their perfect spot, no one would care about the Mend time if the power was less punishing to use and was more of a benefit than a problem.

Speed and traversal, this should be the focus.

Sincerely, someone who actually plays Legion.

    There's no point in even posting this anymore. They proved they don't care what the community thinks with the Deep Wounds change etc. Also Legion was no where near perfect, as most of the community thought they were one of the weakest Killers.

    I feel the same, I don't feel like we're being listened to. I just hate quitting on things I care about.

    Legion has no purpose in Dead by Daylight, if they are strong, they are unfun, if they are weak, they are completely irrelevant and the devs have even implied that they didn't want to rework Legion with their reasoning for changing mend times
