Skulk bonus for attacking in packs

Any chance of skulks getting some form of a bonus if attacking within range of 1 or 2 other skulks?
Possibly be a hive 1 researchable passive trait of skulks

eg.

5% increase in damage dealt per 'other' skulk (cap at 15% or something)

share certain upgrades if the other(s) don't have, eg. silence ( pain when you have it but another skulk near you doesnt :P )

increase run speed if in a pack

add a 'terror' debuff on marines with x skulks about (increase gravity effects)

    Kharaa Commander can boost the team's attack speed by 25% with (Drifter) Enzyme.

    This was tried before with the frenzy upgrade if I remember that name correctly, but it was hard to relay the information to other players that you are an alien with frenzy. So instead they added the synergy of commander Drifters with Enzyme, which is much easier to understand in terms of feedback. I'd like to se the return of Primal Scream :D

    It was called swarm before. Frenzy was the upgrade that gave you HP every time you got a kill.
