New survivor exploit has officially countered Legion to exinction.
If you’re being chased by the legion during a frenzy, he hits you, and starts looking for his next victim, you can mend immediately after he turns his attention away from you and completely negate his only somewhat useful power. I’m not saying it should guarantee a down, but they mend the status effect away way too quickly after it’s applied. It doesn’t provide a sense of danger and urgency to survivors.
They just sorta go,”Lol I’m “”bleeding out”” Lit lmao.”
Unless you hit someone twice in fury, their bar will not even reach 50% before they fix it. It doesn’t apply enough pressure.
This leads Legion players to tunnel aggressively because it’s not worth it to seek new targets. When the survivor mends successfully immediately after the Legion is looking for another target, some tend to turn around and look for the survivor they just broke away from to finish them off, giving the other two survivors that the killer did not manage to find during frenzy, a lot of time to do gens.
- Legion needs to be able to see survivors blood bubbles map wide upon frenzy hit
- while mending, the timer should only slow down by 25% or 50% instead of stopping it entirely.
- Increase base movement speed to the default killer speed instead of that of a sleepy turtle, this way the power is not needed to navigate the map AT ALL TIMES.
- IF you aren’t going to change the base movement speed, increase fury’s regeneration rate significantly to compensate for this and make Legion effectively a reliable burst killer.
If none of these changes seem reasonable to you, then:
- remove his terror radius entirely while not in frenzy.
- only remove scratch marks of survivors upon being struck during a frenzy
- allow enduring to reduce the frenzy fatigue state duration.

so they are exploiting something that is flawed, to benefit from it. It’s not their fault, the game doesn’t tell us what is and isn’t intended for survivor/killer interaction. Not until the ban waves start rolling out anyways.
I stream on twitch, would you like me to go live right now so you can see my hours, rank, and game play of both sides? You talk a lot of smack with nothing to back it up, I've got all the proof behind my claims.
You didn't show me anything on the last thread, a couple pictures of you at rank 1 means absolutely nothing. I stopped responding because you've made it quite clear your lack of IQ has lead you be unable to follow any coherent train of thought, not because you proved anything.
Lastly, "diss people who have an opinion against killers" I have done nothing of the such and your hypocrisy is glaring. You literally even came to this page to comment on me about absolutely nothing to do with the thread but to try and taunt me.
I’ll link it since you like that kind of stuff:

They did this same nonsense with the Spirit. They made a 110% M1 Killer with a power not worthy of making her 110%. Now Spirit is good despite her speed because her power is good enough.
People claiming that Legion is fine need to play more hatchetless Huntress, because that ######### ######### sucks. That is the primary reason I don't play Huntress and hardly any Hag. 110% chase is the pits.
Stop crying long enough to reread those posts and see what I actually said. All you provided was rank 1 killer proof and that is not what I asked for. "When I did you were nowhere to be found." Once again, reread my posts because I've already answered this, you're just failing to follow along. Keep up.
Keep in mind PTB doesn't factor rank. He was playing against rank 15 killers and stuff. Ofc a player with +2k hours will beat a baby easy every time. Also the killer is brand new and in the first few days no one will fully understand how to best play him. Also also killer players are probably not explicitly playing to 4k they are playing to experiment with stuff and figure out the new killer.
That doesn't mean Legion is weak or strong. Just that you can't really use the PTB as reliable evidence for or against. We need results from games with equally ranked players playing normally. When you can bring a purple toolbox with a BNP or insta-heals every game it kinda skews results.
Well a some good examples of an exploits would be the Tinkerer II no terror radius bug that once discovered every killer seemed to start using it.
The other was the clown reloading movement speed exploit that every Clown started using and you started seeing clowns at ranks you wouldn't before.
In both those cases they were known exploits that once known became more widespread in usage despite it being made clear by the devs they were exploits.
Now for this one this might just be a bug and not an exploit and if it's an exploit will probably be patched before live and if it hits live and is still there. Those abusing it will get coal in their socks form the devs if it's an exploit and they abuse it.
Legion doesn't seem complex. Hybrid Panda got it rather quickly.
Legion doesn't seem strong.
Well, if they aren't going to test Legion thoroughly, I hope I don't have to pay to be a Guinea pig when legion goes live.
Ban common sense plz.
In all seriousness just leave it be. The less people are paying attention to them the less severe it is
I'd not call it an "exploit". It's what the developers called engaging and fun gameplay (for survivors).
That is the problem, everyone wants to inject their idea of fun into your play-style. "Fun" isn't the same for everyone and we already live in a world where people cry/rage the moment something isn't how they like. I don't see DBD ever reaching a "balanced" state that suits everyone because they cannot change the core problem of this game...the community.
That was epic and almost made me choke on my coffee I was laughing so hard.
His power is weak yes but even if you fix his power to be dangerous you still have the problem where he is slower than everyone else and needs his power to catch up to people, he can't just hit them because he's too slow. Taking away the double stun when he hits the same person twice, having a huge stun when he manually stops using his power is a huge setback for Legion. He could easily play like Wraith where he is slower when he rings his bell(turning his power off) and then chase normally, he could turn his frenzy off with no stun and it could allow Legion to chase someone normally because they can be right up on them. Hitting the person a second time with Frenzy should not have a huge stun and wiping the blade, it should just be wiping the blade and not give the Survivor another speed boost.
Regardless there are many ways to fix the Legion, he/she is so close to being OP or the weakest, even I made a post about how to help Legion, it wasn't as popular as this because there was no drama but there are lots of ways to fix them and I honestly believe we need another PTB with whatever changes they make, just one more with this particular killer, have it last just a day. Whatever changes they make will either break or help him and sending out a broken killer and saying ''have fun with what you got, we'll fix him eventually'' is not responsible just for the sole reason of how on the edge this killer is.
