Frank's Mixtape Rework Idea
Anyone who has used this addon knows that it's a complete waste of a slot and is nothing more than the ruined remains of Old Legion and their virtually impossible to balance mechanics. Well here's my attempt to make the addon stronger, more interesting, and also uniquely risky.
I know the downsides may seem harsh, but I feel like they would need to for anyone to accept something like this. You give Feral Frenzy a large increase in its lethality at the expense of mobility in pretty much all areas, the charge mechanic is there to prevent overuse while also adding another level of tactical thought on when you should either attempt to stab someone to the ground, M1 them down, or go chase someone else. The decreased terror radius is there to make up for potential lost distance for survivors reacting to your presence as you move slower. Combo Frank's with M&A and you could maybe even get some cheeky downs on injured survivors with the small heartbeat. Despite this looking dangerously close to Old Legion, I must also note that a lot of his current downsides will still be there to keep him in check: The missed attack penalty, longer recharge/full recharge, longer fatigue, these are all downsides that the launch version lacked which was what amplified the annoyance so much. Basically, this addon aims to turn the basic M1, first free hits Legion we currently have ( and that some still enjoy) into a more balanced version of Old Legion/ pre 2.7.0 Legion. Please give some thoughts below. Devs your input would be much appreciated.

THAT is.... way too much for an add-on. That's basically a complete rework.

You Might be right, but addons having a lot of effects isn't exactly new, like Doctor's addons for example. It also may look like a lot, but most of the effects are just small number changes there to just shape and balance it as well as possible. And while it COULD work as a base kit rework, I'm not sure everyone would be too happy to see 4.4m/s in the character info section for Legion. If it's too much, the little effects could be trimmed down, the question is which ones?

Simplified version, tried to trim out anything that seemed unnecessary to make it seem less like a total rework, and remember, it's just an idea. The ideas are what is important.

Even more simplified idea.

This sounds interesting, but I wouldn't remove window vaulting, let Legion vault at default Killer speed with this add-on, also allow them to break pallets.

Maybe restore the ability to vault pallets, but keep the disabled window vaults?
