New Franklin's is oppressive

90 seconds is far too short a duration for a survivor to have reasonable opportunity to get their item back. If you are healthy when hit with Franklin's, and the killer continues chase until you are downed and/or hooked, there is next to zero chance of the item being recovered. On top of that, being able to see items on the ground (without Plunderer's) is awful enough in this game. Couldn't they just have buffed how many charges it removes from an item?

Either go back to removing charges at a higher rate, or the timer needs to pause while in chase, downed, or on hook.

    I absolutely hated the fact that Franklin’s removes charges. New Franklin’s is annoying but not as bad, and it actually can be used strategically unlike its predecessor with trapping Killers.

    Just drop your item if you need it so badly or muscle through it. Franklin’s is designed to be painful to go up against.

    I don't believe removing an item from a survivor to be a really strong ability as items help survivors but are definitely not their strongest point. Keys are a different issue altogether but its already confirmed they are getting altered in the future.

    One thing that annoys me (and happenned to me) is that my item dissapeared even though i had it in my hands (at the last seconds)
