New Legion add-on question
Susie's Mix Tape, Never-Sleep Pills and Friendship Braclet all state that they "increase Killer Instinct's detection range". But this is based on terror radius, so does that mean these add-ons increase the Legion's TR while in FF?

No idea, but it's a huge slap in the face since those used to be the increased movement speed add-ons. Now they are the "Hey! Check out those Survivors you won't come close to catching!" add-ons.
These addons do not increase TR, but increase the innate tracking range of Killer Instinct itself. For some reason they decided rather than giving legion any speed addons they'd make addons that allowed them to track outside the range of their TR. Not by much though. Think of it like this: Killer Instinct and Legion's TR are two circles laying on top of each other. You can expand KI with the addons to be slightly bigger than your TR. You can also just increase your TR and then stretch the KI a bit further out of the increased TR.
Theoretically you'd have tracking on par with doc, but due to the nature of Legion's changes you'd be far less efficient even with the extra tracking.
@ReikoMori So if you use Distressing it will expand TR and Killer Instinct, then the add-ons expand it beyond the TR?
"Theoretically you'd have tracking on par with doc, but due to the nature of Legion's changes you'd be far less efficient even with the extra tracking."
You don't necessarily need to go after those survivors though. Like when I use BBQ or Infectious Fright sometimes I look around just to see what survivors are up to. Not necessarily to go after them just to see "okay this guy is in a dead zone and this guy is on a totem, I'm clear to take the next chase because no one is doing gens" sort of thing. While you can't see aura in KI, you could use it to the same effect to zone survivors and keep tabs on their activities.
With the way the power and addons are currently working Distressing should add to it just fine.
@ReikoMori No that's what I'm asking. If you use Distressing it would increase your TR and KI, while the add-ons only increase the KI, correct?
Yes the addons only increase KI.
