Rat Poison for Chucky NEEDS to be reworked.
This addon is an entire perk, on top of that it's one of the best aura reading tools in the entire game. It's blatantly unfair, please rework it and remove the aura reading entirely, there's 0 excuse for an addon being stronger than perks.

Agreed, its just too good. Check the numbers its absolute mayhem.

It's better than a perk, it's literally free wallhacks on every power use and makes his power way too easy to hit. It's not an addon that can be fixed with number tweaks, it needs to be changed to something totally different

Idk I think the addons fine
Chucky has many powerful addons but can only use 2 and its overall effect is kind of overrated because more often than not the aura reading while slice and dicing is mostly useless the main effect of it is seeing a bit of where the survivor goes after if you hit or missed them. It mostly just helps consistency and in a good case might cut down on a couple seconds after a hit or miss from better pathing. Frankly his other addons are more likely to give more value 9 times out of 10
Id say these other addons provide better value
4s long heal time on every hit
massively increased stealth duration with no downside because hitting out of hidey-ho still does damage
Longer charge and shorter downtime especially together usually means you down as soon as the power comes back
Scampering at windows and reaching the survivor before they can vault it again leaves them in a lose/lose and happens much more often with this addon

Rat Poison's aura reading absolutely is impactful during Slice and Dice. You don't have very long to react to the aura, but you don't really need a long time to react to it either, seeing it for a split second is more than enough to make use of it and eliminate a mindgame/win a mindgame more often than not. Seeing the survivor for a few seconds after you hit or miss is just a bonus. The only time the addon isn't really that useful is if you catch a survivor out in the open with your power - that's just a free hit anyway.
Straight Razor/Iri Amulet/Jump Rope/Power Drill are all pretty good addons but none of them reduce Slice and Dice's counterplay in the way that Rat Poison does.

You literally pointed out why this addon is so strong without realizing.
It makes Slice and Dice insanely consistent. With his power already having a short cooldown, the Aura Reading makes it literally impossible to mindgame the Chucky since they see your current position when they NEED to see it.
Running this addon is a night and day difference for experienced players since you will get tons of hits you otherwise wouldnt and there is little to no risk for using your power; pair it with Power Drill and youll get insanely quick downs with very little that can be done from the Survivors end.
And dont get me wrong, Chucky does have really good addons, but most of the ones you listed are not as good as Rat Poison. Rat Poison is an insanely strong addon that leans towards being oppressive, especially in the hands of good players.

Idk ive played chucky a good bit and for any player worth their salt its nearly worthless. The other addons are just better for better players. The lack of opening up any gameplay changes just means it will be 2nd best to skill.
