How fast are zombies with addons?
All the players I've seen just use addons to make the tentacle power up faster or nothing at all.

AFAIK, these addons were bugged in PTB or their effect was unnoticeable.

There’s only 1 add on that increases Zombie speed, and it’s an iridescent. The other add ons just increase the Zombies cone of detection and distance at which they can spot/hear survivors.

And do you know how fast that is?

At least on PTB there was addons that increased the movement speed of the zombies that were brown, yellow and purple as well as the iridescent one that only increased movement speed for a short time after a generator was completed.

default zombie walkspeed is 1 m/s
common addon increased it by 0.25 m/s
uncommon/very rare/ultra rare addons increased it by 0.5 m/s

This is from the PTB. The Iridescent Add On was bugged, so the Speed Increase is from the purple Add On.
From the values, a Zombie is slightly slower than a crouching Survivor (1m/s Movement Speed, Survivors are at 1,13m/s). With the purple Add On and the yellow Add On this doubles, so they are a bit slower than a walking Survivor.
Not sure how much Movement Speed the Iridescent Add On will give, because it says "Tremendously", but according to the Wiki this is 0,5m/s, same like the yellow or purple Add On, which both say "moderately".
So the maximum Speed is not known yet.

I see multiple add-ons that increase zombie speed.
-Brian's Intestine at Common
-Mikhail's Eye at Uncommon
-Depleted Ink Ribbon at Very Rare
-Shattered S.T.A.R.S. Badge at Ultra Rare

Sadly they don't reach baby zombie speed

If you run the Iri Umbrella Badge + Depleted Ink Ribbon, zombies will move at 1.5m/s until a gen pops, at which point they move 2.5m/s for 30s.
If you just run the Depleted Ink Ribbon + Mikhail's Eye, zombies will always move at 2m/s.
Zombie speed addons are generally not worth it imo, since any decently aware survivor can run right past and make the zombie whiff.

I think they are worth it, especially with ruin. The zombies force people off the gens and ruin regresses it for free.
It also helps them come to your loop faster when you are chasing a survivor; which is fantastic. I don’t think they are too scary on their own but when a zombie or two joins in on your chase you can herd the survivor into them and they are extremely useful.

Yeah that's fair.
The only issue is if they even want to come close to gens survivors are on, or come near a tile you're chasing in. Since you have no way of controlling them, you'll have times where your addon does nothing because the zombies decide they want to wander around a deadzone on the other side of the map.
Personally, I find that running detection range addons + Marvin's Blood is ideal since you're more likely to get use out of those.

I always do a detection and a speed addon. I don’t really prioritize getting tier 3 since the reward isn’t that much.
I also don’t think his attack is that amazing (compared to other ranged killers) so to me the primary reason to play him is for the zombies and I want them to be at least serviceable.

Theres 4
the irridessent
very rare moderately
uncommon moderately
Common slightly
1 moderately makes zombies slightly slower than walking but sadly they get stuck to often to notice well
