Introduction
Legion have 5 special addons called Mix Tapes, which not only grant them some specific buffs to their Feral Frenzy, but also change their chase music. In this guide, you will learn how to identify these mix tapes as soon as you start to hear the chase music, which will help you prevent the killer from getting value from them.

For each mix tape, I will firstly describe what the mix tape does, then I will put the audio layer it adds to game, and finally, give some potential advice countering the addon.

Make sure your game is loud enough. You'd rather have your game too loud than too quiet. Audio information in this game is crucial and you should always pay attention to various sounds. This rule applies to the game in general, not only this guide.
Julie's Mix Tape


  • If The Legion is stunned while in Feral Frenzy, the power gauge refills once the duration of the stun ends.





Instrument: Rhythm guitar

Julie's Mix Tape adds cool rhythm guitar parts to the mix. It's mostly strumming power chords in the key of the song, plus some shredding at the very end.




Tips: Avoid stunning The Legion (mostly with pallets) while they're in Feral Frenzy. Usually they will force you to drop a pallet onto them so that they can get their ability back with full duration. If you know you're gonna get hit, try to spin them as a last resort.
Susie's Mix Tape


  • Increases Killer Instinct detection range by 20 meters.






Instrument: Lead guitar

Susie's Mix Tape adds awesome lead guitar solos to the mix. The whole mix tape is pure shredding in the key of the song. Gotta love this one.





Tips: The only tip you can get for this addon is try to stay as far as possible from The Legion while they're using their power. The addon itself is rather weak, as it only grants them information, which they wouldn't likely get value from (it's rather impossible for them to run from one corner of the map to another within 10 seconds of Feral Frenzy duration). However, if i.e. there are 2 survivors left in the trial, and one gets stabbed, the other one will be easier to find thanks to this addon. So keep this in mind and try to stay as far from them as possible.

Fun fact: This addons adds flat 20 meters extra range. If you were undetectable (which meant that you had no terror radius) but were playing with this addon, you would have 20 meter terror radius. However, if the survivor you'd want to get instinct from had Oblivious status effect, you still wouldn't get the instinct, since in order for you to get it, the survivor needs to hear your terror radius. Thanks dinomasta.10 for the information.
Joey's Mix Tape


  • Survivors who self-mend a Deep Wound from Feral Frenzy are inflicted with Hemorrhage until fully healed.





Instrument: Guitar(?)

Now this one is different. This either might be a guitar being plucked right by the pickups, guitar muted on the fretboard with some crazy effects or a bass being slapped with a specific technique. The sound is very metallic and easy to identify.


Tips: This one is rather simple, avoid self-mending and rather have your teammates mend your wounds. It's not always possible, but most of the time you should be able to pull it off. Since the Hemorrhage buff, this addon is somewhat useful, so try to deny the value of it.
Frank's Mix Tape


While using Feral Frenzy:
  • Damaging generators is 20% faster.
  • Breaking walls is 30% faster.
  • The Power gauge pauses while damaging a generator or breaking a wall.


Instrument: Drums

Frank's Mix Tape is all about drums. It adds powerful and aggresive kicks to the mix.






Tips: Actually, there's not much you can do to deny the value The Legion get from this addon. The only thing that comes to my mind is a scenario, when the killer is running this addon with some gen regression perks (Overcharge, Eruption, etc.). In that case, the only thing you could do is split up with your team and do gens effectively, the same as you would do vs a killer who is defending a three-gen (yes, I'm talking about you, Skull Lady).
Fuming Mix Tape


While using Feral Frenzy:
  • The repair progress of generators can be determined by the intensity of their auras.
  • Generators not being worked on regress.



Instrument: Bass + vocals

Fuming Mix Tape is literally The Entity playing bass and singing, actually more like growling.






Tips: Treat this addon like the perk Hex: Ruin, keeping in mind that it only works during Feral Frenzy. Always prioritize getting gens done over doing other actions, i.e. healing, cleansing totems, etc. Let's say you and your teammate are both injured and are near a gen which has some progress. Get the gen done in the frst place, so it wouldn't regress during the time you could be possibly healing, and heal afterwards. You get the idea.

Fun fact: Despite its description, this addon adds flat 100% regression to the gens that are not being worked on. This means, that it can stack with other things that cause regression. If you were playing with Hex: Ruin and were using Feral Frenzy with this addon, the total regression would be 200%. Again, thanks dinomasta.10 for the information.
All Possible Combinations
If you do the maths, it turns out that there are 16 possible Mix Tape combinations for The Legion. I've put all of them in the video below, have a listen.

As Legion main i say well done, simple and compact + sounds, even if its not exactly the chase sound, its just the sound of the tape itself, but still a solid 9/10 for me. #LegionLove <3

Legion is one of the killers that has been most affected by the NFT (their entire power being based on spreading injuries translates into making your job 20% harder to finish).

However, I will share this build that deals with the current meta of Resilience+NFT+Deadhard+Windows/Hope fairly well and makes him fairly oppressive to reckless survivors.


The build constists of:
-Julie's Mixtape (Julie's Mixtape my beloved) + Iridiscent button.
-Nemesis, Play With Your Food, Enduring+Spirit Fury/Jolt.

This build heavily punishes survivors that stun or blind you by marking them as the obsession, in chase this means that you will vault the pallet, break it, charge spirit fury and get a hit. If they leave the chase with their precious 3% you become 5% faster, countering their NFT and still having a net 2% of extra speed to catch up.

Enduring works well by itself, giving you the ability to recover from a stun and down a survivor if you are fast enough. Spirit Fury helps to finish the job more quickly.

Also don't forget that Nemesis inflicts oblivious. Injured survivors against stealth killers doesnt end well for them.
