About Franklin
The JPN version of Franklin has the following effects.
"When you hit M1, it drops an item. The item loses all of its charge after 150~90 seconds."
There are two interpretations of this effect in Japanese, and no one knew the actual effect.
1. the gauge decreases with each passing hour. (9s=10%)
2. When the time limit is reached, all the gauge is lost. Until then, nothing is done.
I also got both results from people who said they tried it in KYF, which is confusing...
If 1 is correct, the effect seems not as bad, but not as bad as before.
If 2 is correct, I question the value of this park...

It's as you described in #1 - from the moment the item is dropped, it will then begin losing charges gradually. 90 seconds (at tier 3) is how long it will take to fully deplete if it had 100% of its charges remaining when it was dropped. If part of the item had already been used then it will lose its remaining charges quicker than that.
That was a completely unexpected answer...
That is, the time limit doesn't reset every time it's picked up.
It didn't fluctuate in the amount it decreased based on the current charge.
So it was a perk that shaved off the max charge/90 value every second.
Very... It seems like a not bad park. It seems to be a particularly strong anti-park to Medikit.
