Ultimate Dead by Daylight: Optimal Builds for The Legion (2023)

The Legion is one of the easier Killers to learn in Dead by Daylight. Their Feral Frenzy power allows them to quickly move between Survivors, granting the ability to locate nearby Survivors and inflict Deep Wounds on them. This helps to slow down the game as Survivors must take time to mend and heal.

To become skilled at playing as The Legion in Dead by Daylight, players must maintain constant awareness of their surroundings. It is crucial to pay attention to Survivor locations and avoid being stunned by pallets in order to preserve their power. This guide will highlight the best builds for The Legion, enabling players to maintain pressure throughout the entire map. By effectively utilizing their power, players can keep track of numerous Survivors in Dead by Daylight.

The generator-kicking meta in Dead by Daylight was significantly weakened in 2023, prompting Killers to actively pursue and chase Survivors in order to slow generator progression. In this article update, outdated perks such as Overcharge have been replaced with highly effective perks that excel at slowing down generator repairs and complement Legion's ability to apply pressure on Survivor health. These fresh builds will establish the Legion as a formidable Killer in the current meta.

The Legion: Best Non-Teachable Build (2023)

Using The Legion's oppressive power, Survivors frequently divide and simultaneously work on multiple generators. This forces The Legion to either split their attention or swiftly eliminate Survivors in order to maintain control of the game. This build is designed to apply continuous pressure on both Survivors and generators until the lethal endgame.

Discordance (The Legion) - Any generators being actively worked on by two or more Survivors within a radius of 128 meters will be highlighted in yellow.

Hex: No One Escapes Death (General Perk) - Upon the completion of the last generator, all survivors will experience the Exposed status ailment, while users will benefit from a 4% Haste effect until the Hex Totem is purified.

Fearmonger (General Perk) - Survivors engaged in generator work will be afflicted with the Blindness and Exhausted status ailments. These effects will persist for 5 seconds after cessation of repairs.

Jolt (General Perk) – Downing a Survivor causes all generators within a 32–meter radius to lose 8% progress.

The Legion: Best Build (2023)

Due to the high chances of Survivors opting to separate from The Legion during gameplay, this build focuses on effectively managing generators using the most potent slowdown perks currently found in Dead by Daylight.

Pop Goes the Weasel (The Clown) – When a Survivor is hooked, kicking a generator within 45 seconds will reduce its current progress by 30%.

Corrupt Intervention (The Plague) – At the beginning of the trial, the three generators that are farthest from the killer's initial position are rendered inaccessible for 120 seconds or until the first survivor is incapacitated.

Eruption (The Nemesis) - When the Killer kicks a generator, it will be marked in yellow. If the Killer downs a survivor, all marked generators will lose 10% progress and the auras of survivors working on them will be revealed for 12 seconds.

Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance (The Artist) - The Killer begins with four tokens. Each time a different survivor is hooked on a white Scourge Hook, one token is lost and the generator with the highest progress explodes, losing 25% of its progress.
