Can we please change the add-ons Mirror Shards and Pile of Nails (+ few more) from Chucky?

Mirror Shards is a bad tracking tool that can actively hurt you. (the fake footstep sounds can be confused with real Survivor footsteps)

Pile of Nails is just there, it doesn't do much and certainly isn't especially fun to use, the best it can do is slightly increase the Undetectable duration from Hidey-Ho Mode, yet Chucky is hardcoded to laugh whenever he is Undetectable so it doesn't do much against any Survivor with decent headset.

Running Shoes, an effect that could be great, but it has very lackluster numbers which make it quite unnoticeable, I have a few ideas on how to change / buff this add-on!

Lets be honest, for Very Rare add-ons these are really bad and uninteresting, so why not focus these on Slice & Dice and Scamper?

Pile of Nails

  • Every Scamper in a single Slice & Dice will increase its duration by 10%.

Default Slice & Dice attack is 1.8 seconds long, so for every scamper you get +0.18 seconds! Meaning if you Scamper 7 times (good luck) you would have the same bonus as the Portable TV add-on!

Mirror Shards

  • Whenever initiating a Scamper, instead of vaulting over the window/pallet, Chucky will do a 180 (with a new special animation for this add-on) and Slice & Dice back!

A callback to the old Chucky bug where he could go back through the same vault, but now instead of it being optional you are forced to do it with this add-on, it can throw Survivors of guard, probably not the best add-on but way more interesting than a lackluster tracking tool.

Running Shoes

  • After performing a Scamper gain 10% haste for 5 seconds.

A simple change that would make the add-on way more useful!

  • Increases Scamper vault speed by 25%.
  • Scampered windows are blocked for Survivors for 5 seconds.

A budget Bamboozle with a nice QoL change on top!

  • Increases Slice & Dice movement speed by 10%.

A simple change that I would love to have, I still miss the old Chucky's movement speed, but I understand that the current Chucky is way more fair with his 8m/s speed, but having an add-on that slightly increases that wouldn't hurt I think. :,)

There are a few other add-ons that could simply use a numbers buff like Good Guy Box, Automatic Screwdriver, Electric Carving Knife and Plastic Bag. (even tho I think this one should get reworked or at least it would be nice if you knew when it applied the effects)

Then there are a few that could use a rework, Silk Pillow and Strobing Light seem like an odd choices on a stealth killer, but at least Strobing Light has some use case, Silk Pillow's downside is just not really worth it. Tiny Scalpel is just lame and I have never used it.

What do you think tho?
