A little worried about Legions upcoming changes.

I'm worried that they'll just get either number tweaks or a total rework. Number tweaks wouldn't fix their biggest problem, which is having an underwhelming power that offers no chasing potential. But on the other hand I want to be able to run fast and smack people. My biggest fear for a rework is that they'll do another Freddy. Basically making a strong killer but without any of the fun or interesting gameplay.
I love Legion and their aesthetics. But playing them in their current state sucks. So I'm really banking on these changes improving their power. Not scrapping it or something dumb like tweaking the stun duration and calling it a day. I just fear that I'm going to be right in saying that the changes will suck. Or overly optimistic in hoping they won't

Same, I'm a bit worried too.
Number changes are enough to make Legion at least not crap. Their biggest problem is how their power is supposedly used to chain hits, but even if you go to a Discordance gen you won't get chained hits if the survivors run into opposite directions. Sure you can end the power early to conserve it, but then you'll be eating basically a DS stun with that cooldown.
My ideas for Legion are:
- 150% speed (up from 130%);
- 15 seconds of power duration (up from 10).
- 3 seconds of cooldown when ending Frenzy. For every Frenzy hit you get -0,25s cooldown, being able to go down to 2 seconds at max.
With this you can easily chain more hits with Frenzy, use it for mobility with the increased speed and the shorter cooldown would allow them to down survivors easier.
Nerf DH distance and legion wouldn't be that bad tbh.
Like sure he will always be a weak killer but it's okay to have some weaker ones providing they still useful. I do personally believe basic attack killers are hurt most by DH at least in my experience and they can correct mistakes due to the distance.
Would be cool if they added a weird effect if legion hits 3 people in frenzy if he causes the exposed effect for XX seconds. Bit meme like but youd know the 4th survivor location and they would be an insta down
Fear not - when was the last time a killer was stronger after a rework? I guess only small changes.
But, that’s the neat thing Legion already doesn’t have fun or interactive gameplay. While already being weak
I want a Freddy-sized rework for Legion. :P
Or at least a Doctor-sized re-work.
Leatherface?
Seems to be before my time - what did he do before the rework?
Suck terribly.
I think he was really OP when he came out so they nerfed him into the ground. I've just heard this I wasn't around yet.
Old bubba was booty cheeks. The new version is a lot scarier and powerful. Plus he still facecamps like a beast lol.
DH nerfs every killer pretty much. It's a fun perk but it's also a huge crutch which gives me mixed feelings about using it.
I was talking about Legion lol
my bad i am dumb
Me too, didnt realize you had switched to talking about Leatherface, I just saw the L in Leatherface and brain went Legion cause of the title of the post.
Legionface
Just give Legion a chainsaw during frenzy
im fine with a rework as long as it keeps the idea of the power legion had.
Agreed. Even though they suck (legion) I still think they're fun to play.
Nah, he needs a gun... Deathslinger doesn't need his anymore, so that might work.
To be honest, Deathslinger's gun is so bad that I don't think Legion wants it either.
Legion should erase peoples steam profiles when they hit someone in frenzy. It's the only way.
Nah, I would make this only on 3-4 chain hit, so it's more balanced.
If you give it on first, survivor mains would cry too much.
I mean, you can either have a strong Killer or a Killer who vaults Pallets and Windows. Both will not be possible.
I guess the Power will be the same, but there will be Add-On and maybe Basekit-Buffs. Thats about it.
I sincerely hope that The Legion update is worth the wait. It's probably my fault for getting hyped for every update, only to see once again, Legion neglected. Hopefully this is THE update, and it fixes what's wrong with Legion's core power, if not... Damn. Just please don't be something gimmicky like multiple members. Please.
Not many people actually want to give him lethality to his power. I think that would be bad idea, we have seen it before...
We would just want his power do it's job even against decent teams (chain hits) and not get that long fatigue.
One idea saw somewhere for Legion i thought would be really neat is for every successful frenzy hit gain a token each token increases TR and movement speed by X% for the duration of frenzy. Idk about add on changes
I actually HOPE it's number changes and not a dumb gimmick such as, y'know, any lethality whatsoever.
Legion could be made so much better by giving them more speed in frenzy and making frenzy last longer.
Being powerless when all survivors are injured is a fundamental problem with Legion, but if BHVR does this right, it won't be as much of an issue as it is now.
If they're gonna rework them they definitely have to do a Freddy size rework cause a doctor size one wouldn't be enough to change them. I really like the whole running around and stabbing but I just can't imagine that being balanced unless you make it similar to Trickster where you can only use that super move once or twice a game.
Y'all are expecting some incredible rework when we're gonna get a clown level rework.
