Lopro Chains Rework
We all dont like lopro chains. Its an extremely situation hillbilly add-on. Iridescent add-ons are also supposed to be strong but not op. They are also meant to alter a killers base game play. This add-on only alters game play. With these terms set let's rework the chain.
Something all hillbilly mains hate is the new over heating. Its not bad at all its just an inconvenience. To address this problem with an add-on of iridescent quality will be unique so that is the goal of this rework. Ive come up with two ideas for you BHVR.
Lopro Chains
Light chains that decrease the weight of the chainsaw, allowing for greater maneuverability.
*Breaking a pallet with the chainsaw will reset the heat that has built up on the chainsaw
*You gain no heat for the next 5 seconds
This change is meant to allow the chainsaw to be used in a more versatile way. It also keeps some of the aspects of the original lopros chains with the prerequisite of having to break a pallet. The next rewrok is a little more unique.
Lopro chains
Light weight chains that decrease the weight of the chainsaw, allowing for greater maneuverability.
*the chainsaw can be used while overheated
*you gain considerably increased steering while using the chainsaw when its overheated
*hitting a survivor with the chainsaw while overheated gives them the deep wound status affect
This rework is more inline with what I'd like to see. It fits with the description of the lopros chain perfectly. This rework also allows him to use his chainsaw to still get around the map when he's overheated.
Thoughts of my ideas down bellow would be greatly appreciated.

Is this the add-on that lets you run through a pallet? Isn't it good enough already?

No, because it comes with the downside of no longer downing survivors. Regardless of whether or not you go through a pallet first.

I think they should just make it so that it still works normally unless you go through a pallet. Although, Monto had a decent idea that it also allows you to keep going if you hit someone with the chainsaw.

I think they've changed the add-on to work differently now. It now functions as a regular chainsaw but if you go through a pallet and hit someone else within 5 seconds then it's not an insta down.
I dont think it's implemented yet. Only the descriptions were changed by accident. Also the other ultra rare add-on is buffed toi

Idk where they got that info, but you can watch tru3ta1ent's video that came out the other day to see that isn't how it works. I believe the video was called something about nerfing an overrated killer.

Ah. Ok.

The in-game description of the add-on has been changed but not actually the add-on itself.. which is a totally lame move on BHVR's part.
