Legion players tend to focus on injuring all of the players within a survivor group before individually taking down each survivor. Depending on the perks the killer is running, it can be challenging to keep up with the pressure brought on by a skilled Legion player.<\/p>\n<p>You don&#8217;t have to worry next time you play against The Legion, though, as we&#8217;re here to help.<strong> In this guide, we&#8217;ll go over all of the best counters to The Legion in Dead by Daylight. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><pre><strong>February 17 2023 <\/strong>- This article has been updated to reflect all of the most up-to-date strategies to counter The Legion in Dead by Daylight.<\/pre>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Keep Your Distance From Allied Survivors<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"img-figure\" contenteditable=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" contenteditable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/hzzy7vuzH-J_eu5W_t9mHMuOzEOZP6kbnIOS3tXh6w4\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMi9EZWFkX2J5X0RheWxpZ2h0L0xlZ2lvbl9kYmQuanBn\" alt=\"legion dead by daylight survivor feral frenzy counter\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" loading=\"lazy\"><figcaption contenteditable=\"false\">To counter Legion&#8217;s Feral Frenzy, stay away from other survivors.

To make matters worse for the survivor team, The Legion can also down any survivor instantly with a fifth hit in Frenzy.<strong> To avoid The Legion stacking multiple Feral Frenzy hits and reaping the benefits that come with this, you&#8217;ll want to stay away from your allies. <\/strong>On large maps, this means working on different generators and staying on a different side of the map; on smaller maps, you can try to work on different floors than your allies to ensure that it takes longer for the killer to reach you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Don&#8217;t Waste Time Healing Against The Legion<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"img-figure\" contenteditable=\"false\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" contenteditable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/JmIgVGszXGsHzIRmV-1l3XFYl_ppgluKsMm8ZoHXi8U\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMi9EZWFkX2J5X0RheWxpZ2h0L0xlZ2lvbl8zLmpwZw\" alt=\"dead by daylight legion healing counters\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"><figcaption contenteditable=\"false\">While it&#8217;s smart to heal against some killers, you shouldn&#8217;t waste time patching yourself up against The Legion. (Picture: Behaviour Interactive)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Legion can earn injuries with little effort during Feral Frenzy, but it&#8217;s harder for them to actually down survivors. To do so, they&#8217;ll either need to get five hits in a row during Feral Frenzy or manage to down a survivor while not using their ability. <strong>You don&#8217;t want to waste time healing against The Legion, because you&#8217;ll almost inevitably just end up getting injured again.<\/strong> Instead, you should focus on working on objectives, mending (not healing!) when necessary, and looping The Legion if they decide to chase you outside of Frenzy.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all you need to know to counter The Legion in Dead by Daylight. This killer does best when teams group up, so avoid sticking together against The Legion!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Legion in Dead by Daylight is, as their name implies &#8211; a legion of killers; the group is made up of Frank, Julie, Susie,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12834,"featured_media":42058,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42057","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dead-by-daylight","genre-horror","content_type-guide-tutorial"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
