List Of Potential Toolbox Item Rework Ideas
I made this a separate thread from my 'Medkit' item rework ideas due to the complete difference in items when it comes to balancing.
First of all, I did this for fun, don't expect this to be perfect. I tried to follow the formula of having on item of each rarity, then the 4/5/5/4/2 pattern for add-ons (4 brown, 5 yellow, etc). Just kinda want to see what people think of this.
IMPORTANT: These add-ons and items assume that there is a decrease to the effect of repair and sabotage speed, because frankly the add-on and item stacking can make gens be repaired in 50 seconds or less.

It's not a mess! They are really good ideas.

I like the effort you put into this, sometimes I think toolboxes should work like a weaker brand new part and then be expended to give them more an immediate use to them and more interaction, nerf them and to stop gen rushing/synergy with Prove thyself etc.

I appreciate it, aha. I plan to do a flashlight one next, considering more than 4/5 of the addons are useless. I may do a map/key one too depending on how Im feeling
