Added analyze for tier 1/OTS

New page

<table><tr valign="top"><td>
'''Balance and Frenzy''' weapons debuted at the February 2024 [[Duskruin]] run and are sold in the shop by the same name, [[BVShop:Balance and Frenzy|Balance and Frenzy]]. They were created by GM Retser. They are compatible with all weapons except UCS.

Balance and Frenzy can be shifted between an offensive and defensive flare and set of abilities. They have additional customizations, which also vary depending on if the weapon is in Balance or Frenzy mode. Unlocks increase the potency of the flares and abilities.
