Idea for an Ultra Rare add-on for Bubba and Billy

So with the new chapter coming out and introducing the Broken status effect, I think this would be a good idea for add-ons for both of these characters.
For those who don't know what the Broken status effect is, you yourself might instead be calling it a 'No Mither effect'.
Broken makes a Survivor unable to heal to full health for a certain period of time.

I thought up this idea, for both Bubba and Billy;
IRIDESCENT CHAIN
A chain that resonates with the power of the Fog. It can cleave through nearly anything, leaving ruin in its wake.

  • Survivors injured by the chainsaw suffer from the Broken Status Effect for 60 seconds in Injured State.
  • If a Survivor were to not be instantly downed by the chainsaw, Broken is still applied.
  • The Status Effect does not count down if the afflicted Survivor is in Dying State or hooked.
  • Upon being hit by a main weapon attack, if Broken is still present, it is removed.
  • The above does not apply if the Survivor was not instantly downed by the initial chainsaw strike.
  • Does not stack with Grimy Chain or Rusted Chain.

'After returning to Injured State by any means', regards being healed from Dying State, wiggling out, Decisive Strike, or escaping from a hook. The timer should not count down if a Survivor is currently in Dying State, otherwise they can be left on a hook for long enough or the Killer can end up being distracted enough to have them slugged, until the status effect ends.
The second part is only applies to M1 attacks from Bubba or Billy - a Survivor being put back into Dying State while the Broken status effect is still on them, will lose Broken.

What do you guys think? We still need the other ultra-rare add-on for both Killers. The devs themselves are deciding on each Killer having two Ultra-Rare add-ons, and I think this is a good idea for the first one for Bubba and Billy.

    I think this is a cool addon. What do you call "hit" in "Survivors hit gain the Broken status effect"? Hit with the main weapon I suppose? If it's that it's definitely fair: combine with Franklin's Demise it can be pretty good. But I think even if it's with the chainsaw, eh, it's an iridescent addon, that's logical it's powerful, it's ultra rare.

    Ah, my bad.
    'Hit' was meant to regard chainsaw strikes, for applying Broken.
    I should have made it conform properly to the add-ons in the game, I'll actually edit that now.
