(Buff) Assassin suggestion

    Offensive high level buff.

    Effect: Your pistol damage, accuracy, attack speed and reload speed are increased by <Undetermined>

    While the buff is equipped you will not be able to use any primary weapons.

    Craft buff upgrade: Determined Killer / Supreme Assassin / Cold Blooded (name variation)

    Variation 1: Damage done is greatly increased, while damage taken is also greatly increased.

    Variation 2: Attacks now deal True Damage and are slightly stronger, you take greatly increased damage and healing effects on you are reduced by 50%.

    Variation 3: Your attack damage is greatly increased and now deals True Damage, but your body is destroyed upon death and cannot be resurrected.

    I guess some of those variations are overpowered and balance breaking, but some form of buff that make you like a glass cannon with a very high dps but also make you play more safe to avoid consequences like sudden perma death would work for an interesting play style of high risk and high reward.

    Here's my thoughts on this idea...

    Nice idea.... but, I can see this buff being over powered with the buff enhancements.

    Still, with the addition of not being able to use any primary weapons, you can probably make a nice play style out of it. By using secondary weapons, with the rule that you can also only hold pain pills/adrenaline shot on you (so no primary weapons, throwables, first aid kit/defibrillator). I'm just throwing out ideas as I come up with them.

    Just to note: There are only 5 weapons that I know, which allow you to deal either true damage or some form of it to infected so far: Grenade Launcher, Chainsaw, Molotov, Pipe bomb and Vomit Jars
