If I had the chance to change The Legion

So, I like Legion. I think they they have a fun ability, but it's doesn't really help them. I've heard that the Deep Wounds mechanic is for stalling games, but Legion never felt like a stall killer to me. For me I thought Legion was a Chase killer, one that excelled at causing survivors anxiety that there is a killer that has an easier time catching up to them when being chased. Unfortunately, their power only really amounts to an annoyance before they transition into an M1 killer. So basically I just want to list things I would do if I even had a 0.1% chance to change the Legion. These are only my opinions and I would have NO idea if they would work or not, but I am so tired of just sitting on these ideas that I just wanted to share them for the hell of it. Anyway, here is what i would do:

  1. Feral Frenzy no longer causes Deep Wounds and has the ability to down survivors. frenzy requires a 3 second starup before activating.
  2. Feral Frenzy ends and goes on cooldown when you hit a survivor, miss an attack, get stunned by a pallet, blinded by a flash light, and of course when the gauge runs out.
  3. Feral Frenzy lasts 10 seconds and goes on cooldown for 30 seconds when not in a chase, and takes longer when in a chase. Also, vaulting anything (pallets or windows) take away 1 second of Feral Frenzy.
  4. The attack during Feral frenzy is considered a Basic Attack and takes a second to wind up (like a lunge, but without the range). There will be both visual and audio cues for the survivor to know when the attack is coming so that they can prepare to avoid it.
  5. The Legion cannot open lockers or damage generators during the frenzy
  6. The Legion still cannot see scratch marks or pools of blood during frenzy, is still stunned for 4 seconds when the frenzy ends, and canot see scratches and blood for 2 seconds when frenzy ends.
  7. Legion becomes a 11 move speed, and 120 during frenzy.

As for add-ons and perks being changed to reflect what I said:

-The Pins apply their effects when hitting a survivor from Healthy to injured.

-The Bkades can either increase the time it takes to heal (not stacking with Mangled), or inflict the Deep Wounds (haven't really though about these ones).

-Frank's Mix Tape shows survivor auras for 2 seconds instead of killer instinct.

-Iron Maiden only causes Exposed for 10 seconds, and reveals the aura for 2 seconds.

I figure the change to Iron Maiden because I think (theoretically) hopping in and out of a locker quickly while being chased will be a good way to counter them (since I made it so they can't open lockers during frenzy), so hopping in a locker forces them to end the frenzy, giving survivors around 3 seconds to start running from an M1 killer.

Welp, these are my thoughts and what I would personally do to change The Legion. Agree? Disagree? I would love to know. Though at the end of the day, DBD is not my game and I have no right to demand the devs to make these changes, but still, this is how I feel and I just wanted to get these thoughts out of my head.
