Frank's Mix Tape rework idea
Ever since the rework, Frank's Mix Tape has felt...let's go with bad. It's bad. It's an attempt to give a similar feel to the OG Legion, but ends being more frustrating trying to get it to work. If you have someone standing still doing nothing, you still waste like 80 seconds downing them with FF. 60 if you have Stab Wound Study. It takes less time to get to t3 bloodlust, which gets you up to the same speed as FF does, where you can just drop them with a basic attack.
So, I have a couple ideas for how to change it.
1. Speed boost
During FF, increase your movement speed from 5.2 m/s to 5.4 m/s.
Running around at high speed is just fun. Survivors can juke you by zig zagging or vaulting back the way you came, etc. Sprint Burst, Lithe, and Balanced Landing will still allow survivors to run faster than you. It shouldn't change the balance too much from how it is now. And if it does, you can always tack on a reduction of FF duration.
2. Aura Reading
Landing a hit in FF allows you to see the auras of survivors within your terror radius that don't have deep wounds. This replaces the killer instinct effect. Aura reading distance effected by add-ons that increase killer instinct range.
This goes in line with what the other tape add-ons do. Aura reading is easier to follow. If you quickly scan around, a survivor's aura stands out. Killer instinct can be unreliable at times. Scanning for the indicator can miss where it's trying to lead you if it has faded when you're looking in that direction. On the flip side, while making it easier to track survivors, it also has the balance of survivors being able to hide in lockers to avoid detection. While it can be fun to follow a survivor to a locker, it's can also be frustrating to spin around in a circle, wasting your FF trying to figure out where the heartbeat is coming from.

It’s not bad. It’s USELESS in the current form of the game. It’s littearly made for an other killer that are not even in the game anymore. Legion’s current power basically has no interaction with this add-on and it’s not the only one. Legion needs a semi-total add-on rework Imo.

Honestly, Frank's mixtape is the only add-on that is useless with how the legion is currently built. The rest may not be all that useful, but this is the only one that I think is actually useless.

Add-ons like deep wound study also adds too less for it to be considered any usefull. In nutshell, most legion add-ons are just too weak and need to be buffed. But Frank’s feels trully like using Nurse’s extra blink add-on on him/her.

Stab Wound Study has the benefit of limiting the amount of time survivors can ignore the debuff before mending. Combined with Nasty Blade, it can be useful. Sure, its usefulness is limited, but my point was that FMT essentially allows for a play that can be done better by just blood lusting to T3, which only takes 45 seconds.
