I've stopped playing it already because it is impossible to win as the legends. A way they could fix this maybe is that if you die as a shadow you don't keep respawning because 1 legend against 30 shadows, who thought that was a good idea?
Only because you can't make it, it does not mean, that it is impossible.
Would be way to easy if shadows would not be able to respawn after the got killed.

@DacendarinZombies in pretty much every instance only need one bite to kill a human. Some just have to bleed on a human to infect them. That’s pretty strong, not weak. Shadows die with 1 or 2 shots, that’s pretty weak. The point is it is supposed to be hard to win as a Legend. It’s not supposed to be “balanced”. It’s around for 3 weeks, just enjoy it while you can, everyone.

I think the balance is near perfect. When I did finally get my first win as a legend (on day one, with Bangalore) it felt pretty rewarding. And on that win I think 7 legends made it out, cause we worked towards each other had some good timing and teamwork.

The difficullty should be not to annoying or hard as a legend but also not where shadows easily become cannon fooder. killing does grant health and shield however the fact you can just get a unlucky drop on the loot barg and just get a level one armor and a shadow happens to go there and just melee you once is just absurd. I will say the damage makes sense for shadows but only when the final 10 survivors are active. The only way I can see some improve is keep the speed of the shadows or slow them down but give their melee attacks lunges. Nerfing the damage is a bit hard to grasp but I will say this. the more shadows there are the more stonger they become. meaning they won't do much in the beginning but has more shadows introduce the stronger and deadlier they become. Yesterday every shadowfall match I've been in ten survivors are always actvated before the first ring closed due to shadows spawning in from the sky and just keeps on going back to where they die to get their killer. To me spawning shadows a little bit away from their killer and not dropping from the sky at least gives legends a time to breath. I say this because there was always a player in those matches that I killed as a legend but he always drops down and attacks me again and again. I kill them three times before they finally killed me due to the fact that since he kept dying to me, other shadows just bomb rush me. Now I would be fine about their damage and not complain if the shadows didn't drop but spawn somewhere in the ring. The solid fact that once a shadow dies but immediately drops on to you again and again just promotes tunneling and becomes unfun when you need to win as a legend. I luckly did get win as a legend but only due to the fact I play bangalore and smoke the shadows camping the evac ship. Which is another that when the shadows die there isn't any additional respawn second for them they just respawn and camp the evac because if they don't win as legends then why should the the 10 survivors should. It is fun I will admit it but the shadows becomes annoying when they one shot you because you don't have level 2 or 3 armor since they deal 150 damage.

@EA_Blueberry I agree that it is pretty rough to win as a legend. The shadow “spam” is a little ridiculous. Maybe a 5-10 second respawn timer for shadows? Some additional feedback:
1. I already saw people team up before 10 legends are left. Watched a team of 6 legends last night roaming around next to each other when there were still 18 legends left... kind of lame... wish I got a pic of there names, but I insta quit because I got a little ragey...
2. This mode that truly needs the leave penalty added to it. There was a game I was in that had 5 shadows (me included) against 10 legends because everyone quit out the minute they died. People are thirsting that lmg skin hard and not playing for fun.
3. There is another issue with the 20-kill badge? I watched a video last night about it. Seems super lame if you can get the 20-kill badge from this mode though. I got 15 kills last night in it, but I am going to feel dirty as hell if I can unlock the 20-kill badge because of my luck with killing shadows.... It truly cheapens the prestige of that badge in my eyes.

Im having issues the other way around i cant win as shadows because of a pathfinder tbh he gets on the ship to easily or a big group of people working well together
