    Decided I'd add in new buff ideas here, some of these buffs here might be unique to a specific class.

    Acceleration Pipebomb
    Allows you to shove any special/tank with a pipe bomb in hand to attach a pipe bomb that explodes in 10 seconds, dealing up to 1,500 (750 in VS) blast damage the more the infected moves and stunning them for 2 (1 in VS) seconds.
    <Tanks can't be affected within 30 seconds of a previous acceleration bomb explosion>

    |T| Overcharge
    You can command your Slaying Automata to overcharge, increasing their damage and attack speed by 5% per shot for 10 seconds and increases target range to 1000 units. You cannot do anything to your Slaying Automata while it overcharges for the duration. The Slaying Automata then self-destructs, dealing 3,000 blast damage to all infected around within 750 units and becoming unavailable to be spawned again for the rest of the round.
    <Requires the Slaying Automata Buff>
    <Only 1 Slaying Automata can be overcharged at any 1 time>
    <X VS>

    |S| Blood Transfusion
    Allows you to shove any survivor 10 times in a row to transfer some of your blood to them. This will halve your current health in exchange for healing the affected survivor the same amount of health back. You don't gain any shove penalties while performing this action on the same survivor.
    <60 second cooldown for Blood Transfusion>
    <X VS>

    |{| Tank Stance
    You can hold your ground against the infected by holding forward and back keys, then pressing <SHOVE> to enter your tank stance. This will draw all infected to aggro you within 500 units and gives you 25% defense and 10% damage resistance for 8 seconds. You cannot be affected by any statuses or crowd controlled, but yo also cannot move for the duration of the effect.
    <3 minute cooldown for Tank Stance>
    <X VS>

    |A| Invigorating Dodger
    If you take any damage that would otherwise kill you, any buffs that would activate to save you also makes you dodge any and all attacks (bypassing immunities) and gain +15 HP back on all successful dodges for 10 seconds. Smoke Bomb ability cannot be used during the duration.
    <Only works once per round per buff effect>
    <X VS>

    |A| Invigorating Speedster
    If you take any damage that would otherwise kill you, any buffs that would activate to save you also increases your current movement speed by +15% for 10 seconds. Smoke Bomb ability cannot be used during the duration.
    <Only works once per round per buff effect>
    <X VS>

    |D| Viral Survivor
    If you are affected with any bad status effect by any specials/tanks when the Contagious ability activates, you can inflict it to all other affected around within 250 units for half the time.
    <X VS>

    |D| Mutation
    With at least at least 50 Scourge stacks obtained, it'll allow you to have a 5% chance on any debuffs inflicted to instead inflict Mutation on the affected target for 15 seconds (5 seconds on Tanks). Mutation disables the infected from using their upgrades, skills, buffs and abilities.
    <Cannot mutate Shaman, Supreme Shaman or Special Tier Tanks>
    <Tanks can't be affected within 60 seconds of a previous Mutation>
    <X VS>

    |H| Empowered Throwables
    If 50% or less of the survivors are alive, your throwables gain additional effects against infected with the Augmented Grenades ability:
    Pipe bombs: Deals 20% more base blast damage.
    Vomit Jars: Now also applies the acid jar skill effect to all infected biled by the vomit clouds.
    Fire: Fire deals +100 damage/tick, can now ignite fire immune tanks for 20 seconds.
    <X VS>

    I have read through it all.

    The "Dis-Mutator" item would be a bit trollish, since people would sometimes use area mutator in a certain map (parish finale because chaos and memes).

    So about that, it would be fair to give a refund to any player that used area mutator and got denied by dis-Mutator, henceforth the Dismutator would disable further area mutators.

    Imagine the scenario where about 5-7 area mutators are used and someone just uses the Dis-Mutator, would be a loss dont ya think?

    And about the Golden key, would be honestly worth if the rewards make it worth it, because the pain of dormants is not nice, and idk if people would even dare touch them again after completion, with the exception of DAT or DRT, since its Duo and thus helping others is the purpose of COOP.

    The Debuffer one... i may be new to the class mechanics, however i would definitely love to give mutation to an effin T3 tank, rendering him as useless as a pestilent tank, feels OP. Also the other one, Viral Survivor would be nice RNG when debuffer does his stuff and tank decides to aggro, kind of a "No u" there.

    For the rest of classes, gotta check em to have an honest oppinion about em.

    As for the Weekly quest, would be better if it gets more rewards, 10M exp, although it is a lot, falls when you compare it to 2 scenarios (Example: Prison and erad can fill it up and its on 2 days, meaning you get 3x the same reward weekly, 4x if you do all 4 erad in sunday).

    However, Generally speaking, it is nice.

    Went ahead and adjusted some things:

    Viral Survivor Buff is buffed, but should be obvious it won't be allowed to work in a few cases.

    |D| Viral Survivor
    If you are affected with any bad status effect by any specials/tanks when the Contagious ability activates, you can inflict it to all other affected around within 500 units for half the time.
    <Does not work with mutation and unique bad status effects>
    <X VS>


    For Mutation, you can inflict it with less scourge stacks at a higher chance and it lasts slightly longer on tanks. Now you cannot mutate any tier 3+ Tanks (Any Tier 3 or Special Tier Tanks). Should be less overpowered now.

    |D| Mutation
    With at least at least 35 Scourge stacks obtained, it'll allow you to have a 10% chance on any debuffs inflicted to instead inflict Mutation on the affected target for 15 seconds (7 seconds on Tanks). Mutation disables the infected from using their upgrades, skills, buffs and abilities.
    <Cannot mutate the Shaman Tank or Tier 3+ Tanks>
    <Tanks can't be affected within 60 seconds of a previous Mutation>
    <X VS>


    Quest Rewards for the Prove Thyself! Quest are now as follows:
    - 50,000,000 experience (Class exp per class level is: 0: 100k, 1: 250k, 2: 500k, 3: 750k, 4: 1m)
    - $500,000 Cash
    - 25,000 FR-Pills
    - 15x Craftable Bags

    As a result of this however, the Big Check Buff can no longer be used to boost the quest rewards received from this quest only.

    Allowed the area mutators to be given back as a refund should the Dis-Mutator be used, but also gave it a full 2 campaigns cooldown (meaning you must go through another 2 full campaigns of maps before you can use it on the 3rd campaign after). It should no longer be a trollish use now.

    Dis-Mutator

    Description:
    This item allows you to end the effects of all current map mutations active and prevents any future map mutations from being made active on the current map. If any map mutations were used by players, these players are given the item back as a refund upon using this item.
    <Can only be used within the first two minutes of the round, 60 seconds instead on gauntlet finales after the finale is started>
    <Has a full 2 campaigns cooldown after use for all players>
    <Cannot be used in VS or Survival gamemodes>

    If used, a loud crackling glass breaking sound will play with a [PR] message is printed out to all players.
    [PR] "player" has used Dis-Mutator! Wiping all area mutations from the map...

    If you used any Area Mutator Items yourself and the Dis-Mutator item became used by you or someone else.
    [PR] You were given back all Area Mutator Items used.

    As for the Golden Dormant Key, reduced down the requirements. Who knows if any level 250 players will ever want to do dormant tanks again. I certainly wouldn't mind doing them since having done the first 4 back in V1.7 more than 2 years ago.

    Golden Dormant Key

    Description:
    Allows you to convert any Dormant Hideout Key you find on any map with a Dormant Hideout into the golden version of the quest item. This will allow you to challenge any dormant tank of your choice, so long as you have fought and killed it before in the past.
    <Requires that no players have any dormant tank quests active>
    <Has a 1 day cooldown for the player who uses it>
    <Has a 1 dormant tank map cooldown for all other players>

    Crafting Requirements:
    |-| Corrosive Acid Sample (x1)
    |-| Custom Weapon Parts (x25)
    |-| Mechanical Parts (x3)
    |-| Razorblade Katana (x3)
    |-| Reinforced Tank Skin (x50)
    |-| Tempered Rock (x3)
    |-| Welding Gun (x25)

    Cash Cost: $500,000 Cash
    FR-Pills Cost: 5,000 FR-Pills
    Volatile Tank Blood Cost: 10 Volatile Tank Blood

    Crafting Chance: 60% (cannot be boosted)

    After use, a chat message will be printed out to all players, and a sound effect similar to the Beyond the Grave Buff effect sound (at a faster speed) will play.
    [PR] "Player" has used the Golden Dormant Key! Wish them good luck for the dormant tank!

    If Special Cargo is to ever receive a "hard mode" version of the scenario or is to be buffed:

    Buff up the scenario before Supreme Duelist Tank spawns:
    - Tank Spawns may favour tanks that may aim to wipe the survivors, increasing the number of tier 2 tank spawns to tier 1 tank spawns by a small amount. The more the survivors are doing well, the higher this chance increase is and resets on any tier 3 tanks defeated.

    Here's how I'd buff the tank:

    18. Supreme Duelist Tank

    Description:
    This tank uses different melee weapons to attack the survivors and kept the bullet immunity of its weaker version.

    Statistics:
    Health: 360,000 HP
    Punch Damage: 400 HP
    Speed: 2.0
    Hit Interval: 0.2
    Blocks: Fire and Bullets


    Abilities:
    1. (Passive) Slayer: The tank uses melee weapons to attack dealing 12.5% of the survivor's current health as additional damage.
    2. (Passive) Honored Combat: Both the tank and the survivors have all attack or defense modifiers nullified.
    3. (Passive) No Guard: Damage from the tank cannot be blocked by any means.
    4. (Passive) True Guard: True Damage dealt to the tank is halved.
    5. (Active) Melee Stab: The tank stabs a sharp weapon into a survivor, slowing him down by 75% and causing 3% of the survivor's maximum health as damage per second. The weapon can be removed by shoving the survivor 20 times or by using a medkit. The medkit will only heal for half and will be slow to use. While impaled, survivors instantly die if their HP is reduced to 0, and are killed instantly if incapacitated. This bypasses all death guards.
    6. (Active) Dance of a thousand katanas: The tank throws katanas at multiple directions, dealing 1,500 HP damage, and inflicting all 3 bleed status effects. The katanas can pierce through survivors and may damage them multiple times. Each katana that hits a survivor lowers the cooldown for the ability by 3 seconds.
    7. (Passive) Quick Dash: The tank will randomly drop machetes to the floor. If a survivor steps near one, it will explode, dealing 400 HP damage and flinging nearby survivors away. The tank then leaves a decoy made of pure skin and teleports to the survivor, focusing them for 8 seconds. The machetes can be shot to be destroyed.
    8. (Active) Knife: The tank throws a knife in front that deals 300 HP damage if it hits a survivor. The knife has a 10% chance of hitting the survivor's spine which will deal 2,000 HP damage instead.
    9. (Active) Axe'd: The tank switches to an axe that will instantly incapacitate the survivor hit and slow them by 75%. The tank will also heal equal to the victim's maximum health multiplied by 5. If it doesn't attack in 10 seconds the axe is put away. Maximum Heal: 5% of max HP.
    10. (Passive) Melee Desperation: The tank is blood thirsty and is out for blood! If the tank isn't killed within 7 minutes, he will increase his chances to instantly kill survivors with all ability hits, bypassing all death guards. After 10 minutes of battle, maximum chance is equal to 20%. The Knife Ability when it's chance activates also instantly kills the survivor.

    That should make the tank on a difficulty comparable with SIT.

    Additional Information:
    The Supreme Duelist Tank can either be easy or hard to kill in the Special Cargo Scenario. It has been a part of the scenario back when V1.8 was released. It has had minor changes to some of its abilities and its health, but has otherwise mostly stayed the same.

    Just my two cents, otherwise it can be sometimes a challenge with Special Cargo as it currently is.



    The Supreme Duelist Tank can also gain new abilities.
    - Survivors with stab wounds inside them are killed instantly when their HP reaches 0, bypassing incapacitation or anything that tries to save them. If the survivor was incapacitated by any other sources, they will instantly die to any source that hits them from the Supreme Duelist Tank.
    - Melee Stab and Dance of a thousand katanas abilities has a chance to instantly kill survivors on all hits. This chance increases the more survivors that are alive and increases slowly permanently if the tank is alive for more than 7 minutes. Maximum Chance becomes 20% at 10 minutes into the tank fight.

    The chance increase on instant kills acts as a soft desperation, forcing the survivors to aim for a 7 minute kill time.

    Here's a buff idea from minwo, as for the Requirements, I did those ^^

    Mutated Bullets

    Buff Requirements:
    Cost: $1,000,000 Cash
    FR-Pills Cost: 2,500 FR-Pills
    Required Level: 201


    Description:
    Hitting any infected with bullets will apply mutated infection to the target, causing mutations to attack them from the inside. The infected will take (your current level / 2) as true damage per second for 5 seconds.
    <Changing targets stops the damage of your last target>
    <Tanks take 1/3 reduced true damage>
    <X VS>

    Potent Mutation

    Crafting Requirements:
    |-| Box of empty shells (x15)
    |-| Broken Flesh Prison Bar (x7)
    |-| Custom Weapon Parts (x20)
    |-| Expired Flesh Eating Parasite (x7)
    |-| Mutation Refiner (x250)
    |-| Reinforced Tank Skin (x100)
    |-| Rusted Metal Chunk (x20)
    |-| Vinegar (x20)

    Level Needed: 245
    Cash Cost: $3,307,485 Cash
    FR-Pill Cost: 6,750 FR-Pills


    Description:
    Buff enhancement for Mutated Bullets Buff. This removes the true damage reduction from Tanks. Tanks take true damage every second for 3 seconds instead.

    This buff is an offensive buff that can act like a distant helping drone. letting you deal true damage to the infected without needing to be near them. if you do change targets though, so does the damage.

    It isn't bad for when you find that fighting long range against some infected is a better idea itself.

    If the ideas goes through I would suggest instead of normal erad materials it can be tempered rock/mechanical parts. I feel that there is way too many enhancements/buffs (Crafting) that uses erad materials, especially katanas and gas. Also I might be wrong here, the enhancement seems to do nothing, since its now 1 tick of damage per 3 seconds, so there is no increase of damage from the original.

    Tanks reduce true damage dealt by the mutated bullets, the enhancement will remove that resistence.
     
  10. Vakarlan

    Vakarlan MG Donor

    Yes but before the enhancement the damage dealt is 1 tick per second, lets say you are lvl 250, that's 41.67 true damage per second vs tanks.

    After the enhancement true damage is dealt 1 tick per 3 seconds instead(Buff enhancement for Mutated Bullets Buff. This removes the true damage reduction from Tanks. Tanks take true damage every second for 3 seconds instead.) That means its 125 true damage PER 3 second (if you are lvl 250). Isn't that zero changes at all before and after?? Both DPS is the same.

    Unless you are talking about the natural 10% true damage reduction from T4 tanks or SDT's 50% true damage reduction, then maybe? But my guess is you are not.

    My apologies if I wasn't making sense earlier with some parts of the idea.

    Decided to change the buff enhancement requirements and lowered them a bit,

    Potent Mutation

    Crafting Requirements:
    |-| Box of empty shells (x10)
    |-| Custom Weapon Parts (x10)
    |-| Mechanical Parts (x6)
    |-| Mutation Refiner (x150)
    |-| Reinforced Tank Skin (x75)
    |-| Rusted Metal Chunk (x15)
    |-| Vinegar (x10)

    Level Needed: 245
    Cash Cost: $1,984,491 Cash
    FR-Pill Cost: 5,062 FR-Pills

    To make better sense with the buff enhancement, basically if you had this buff enhancement active, the tanks affected by this buff would no longer take reduced true damage and will instead take the same amount of true damage that other infected would take.

    The damage tick is still unchanged at the damage happening every 1 second. With the Buff Enhancement, this damage will only last for 3 ticks, 3 seconds on tanks, instead of the usual 5 ticks, 5 seconds that other infected receive in terms of damage being dealt.

    here's some true damage calculations:

    1 second = 125 true damage dealt at (lv. 250)
    3 seconds = 375 true damage dealt at (lv. 250)
    5 seconds = 625 true damage dealt at (lv. 250)

    and so on.

    I see so the main point of the enhancement isn't a raw damage increase, its purely to debuff tanks letting them take full damage from true damage sources. That would be really great vs T4s and SDT. Am I reading this right? Really sick idea then.

    Yeah, minwo wanted to come up with a way to inflict the green flu virus that the humans who turned infected had onto the infected themselves xD

    Basically a debuffer buff.

    Vakarlan MG Donor

    Yea that really great, its also a tech QOL buff, since they get bonus from dealing true damage. You might wanna turn up the cost abit, cuz any true damage buffs especially procced via ranged, is really insane, especially for TECH as one of their primary damage type is true damage.

    timkit MG Donor

    Changed as you asked, level requirement stays the same, so it would be unlocked before you can level to tech level 3.

    Crafting Requirements:
    |-| Box of empty shells (x25)
    |-| Custom Weapon Parts (x25)
    |-| Mechanical Parts (x10)
    |-| Mutation Refiner (x300)
    |-| Reinforced Tank Skin (x250)
    |-| Rusted Metal Chunk (x25)
    |-| Vinegar (x20)

    Level Needed: 245
    Cash Cost: $7,590,677 Cash
    FR-Pill Cost: 13,464 FR-Pills

    It's like a distant helping drone buff, once you start firing, pretend a drone was there and let it damage the tanks, it'll stop damaging them once time passes or by switching targets :P The difference is you're doing this in terms of a debuffer prespective instead ^^

    Here's a few new event buff ideas, most of them are for the infected:

    |E| Gnome Carrier

While carrying a gnome, you and all survivors in 500 range gain 3 HP every second, any damage that the other survivors take, you cover 10% of that damage and take it instead. You can also hold the WALK key once every 60 seconds to motivate them, giving any survivors not pinned a 5% move speed boost and +15% recovery rate from knockbacks for 15 seconds.
    <✖ VS>

    |E| Specialist Caller
    Using the !buy menu, once per round you can select 3 Special Infected. These 3 special infected chosen have 100% increased aggro towards you and will always prioritise targeting you first over other survivors. The other 3 special infected not selected have 50% less aggro towards you and may not prioritise targeting you first over other survivors.
    <✖ VS>

    |E| Fireworks Grenade Launcher
    Allows you to fire a fireworks launcher projectile that with the USE key held down will explode on impact, igniting and stunning nearby infected for 5 seconds (2 for tanks).

    |E| Disguise (All Roles)

    When the Disguise is active:
    [PR] Disguised as the "Special Infected"! Your disguise will break if you use your special/melee attack.

    |E| Leaker (Slower Role Boomer Only)

    Description:
    Allows the boomer to transform into the "Leaker" Special Infected by double tapping the WALK key. While moving, it takes 50% less damage and can be commanded to blow up by holding down LEFT-CLICK. The boomer then takes 2 seconds to blow up and takes double damage while preparing to blow, cancelling it if killed. Once it blows, it explodes dealing 10% Max HP damage to nearby survivors and leaves behind a small fire puddle.
    <Cannot cancel the transformation and cannot Bitch Slap Survivors once active>

    |E| Hard Spit (Spitter Slower Role Only)

    Description:
    Increases the weight of the projectiles that the spitter spits out, allowing it to instantly stop survivors dead in their tracks. Additionally the projectile will pierce up to 3 survivors, dealing 25 true damage on each pierce before stopping.

    |E| Jumper (All Jockey Roles)

    Description:
    Increases the muscles of the Jockey, allowing him to have increased leap power. If the jockey manages to land on a survivor, it will deal up to 150 base pounce damage depending on distance from the point it jumped to the point where it landed. The affected survivor also becomes crippled momentarily once they're freed.
    <Cannot jump when pinning survivors>

    |E| Special Motivator (Tank)

    Description:
    Every 90 seconds, the tank can yell out an invigorating roar, enhancing nearby Special Infected within 1000 units to deal 50% more damage and gain 20% defense for 20 seconds.
    <Does not affect the Tank itself nor any other alive Tanks>

    *When the tank roars, its yell sound will be that of the Infernal Tank from earlier mgftw versions.

    When affected by the tank:
    [PR] Motivated! Your damage dealt and defense gained has been increased for 20 seconds.

    Been a long time since I came up with any new event buffs, including infected ones, here you go:

    Survivor Buffs are Festive, Infected Buffs are not.

    Survivor Buffs:

    |E| Present Killer (Offensive Buffs)

    Description:
    Killing any Special Infected has a 10% (15% on VS) chance to drop a present for you. Opening up this present gives your weapons double damage for 6 seconds (3 on VS) and a chance to ignore defenses. Defense Ignore applies to all damage sources including True Damage.
    <15 Second Cooldown between picking presents>
    <Dropped presents disappear after 15 seconds>

    |E| Snowman (Defensive Buffs)

    Description:
    Gives you the ability to transform into a cold Snowman by double tapping SHIFT. The cold state of the suit lowers move speed by 15%, gives x2 fire damage vulnerability, but also gives immunity to non-tank slows/cripples. Common and Special Infected have a chance to ignore you based on how close you are to them and reduces tank aggro and aggro time by 20%. Taking any SI/Tank damage or being launched will make the Snowman decay faster.
    <Duration: 60 Seconds>
    <X VS>

    |E| Electric Lights (Ability Buffs)

    Description:
    With 3 sets of string lights, you can activate this ability then shove any tank to consume 1. The lights make the tank less likely to aggro close targets and makes its glow able to be seen from further away and through walls. Any damage the tank takes gives it a chance to be stunned or electrocuted for a short time, also dealing 100 True Damage. You must stick close to the tank within 750 units to keep the lights active for 15 seconds.
    <Activate from !buy menu, Can only shove same tank once>
    <X VS>
    (Command: sm_lights)

    |E| Bloody Sword (Equipment Buffs)

    Description:
    With an Axe, Golf Club, Machete, Katana or Combat Knife held, killing any special infected will spill blood. This gives you a stack of bloodthirst (Max: 10), giving 3% attack speed, 1.5% move speed and 1 HP/5s regen. You must kill a special infected in (15-stacks) seconds in order to maintain bloodthirst stacks on yourself. You also gain 25% attack range on your held melee weapon.
    <X VS>

    |E| Gift Giving (Utility Buffs)

    Description:
    Each time you pick up a white toaster, nearby survivors within 300 units will gain the same effect with a smaller potency, with the effect and duration shared between all survivors affected (Max: 6). This does not work with some white toaster effects. You can also transfer any bonus effect you gain to another survivor by shoving them.
    <20 Second Cooldown on giving another bonus effect and gaining another bonus toaster upon shoving>
    <Cooldown also applies to other survivor being given bonus effect>
    <X VS>

    |E| Car Searcher (Economy and Exp Buffs)

    Description:
    Allows you to search cars more thoroughly than usual with tools, reducing search times by 20%. Doubles the amount of Cash gained and gives experience equal to 10 times the amount of cash found. You also gain a chance to earn 1 random crafting material equal to the number of car searches done on the map multiplied by 20%. The chance resets when a crafting material is found.

    Infected Buffs:

    (SMOK) |E| Hardened Tongue

    Description:
    Increases Tongue Health by 50% and reduces damage dealt to it by 80% for the first 10 seconds after pinning someone. The damage reduction decays overtime.

    (BOOM) |E| Explosion

    Description:
    Allows you to explode yourself on the survivors as a Boomer by standing still, crouching down and holding E for 5 seconds. The effect deals up to 100 blast damage and biles all affected targets within 500 units, even through walls.
    <Cooldown: 45 seconds>

    (HUNT) |E| Hard Concussion

    Description:
    After pouncing, you may leave the survivor in a confused/dazed state for sometime. The chance is based on Pounce Damage dealt above 25. Inflicting a Devastating Pounce on any survivor will always inflict confuse/daze on them for 20 seconds instead.
    <Max Chance: 15%, Chance doubled if victim is incapacitated>

    (SPIT) |E| Acid Rain

    Description:
    Gives you the ability to cause Acid Rain. This is done by looking up and double tapping SHIFT to swap between modes when Spit is not on cooldown. In Acid Rain Mode, pressing LEFT-CLICK at an area you target causes Acid Rain to pour down on it. It deals 10 HP/s Acid Damage, slows by 6% per second, and inflicts 2 corrosion stacks in the area to enemy survivors, lasting for 10 seconds. Acid Rain cannot be used in indoor areas.
    <Using Acid Rain doubles next Spit Cooldown>

    (JOCK) |E| Frozen Claws

    Description:
    Gives the Jockey's claws a cool touch, lowers attack speed by 20% but for every 10 stacks accumulated on a survivor, instantly slows current speed by 15% and gives 2% permanent move speed slow, max 10% from this buff. You also gain a 1% chance to freeze your target for 3 seconds.
    <Same survivor can't be frozen within 30 seconds of a previous freeze>

    (CHRG) |E| Reinforced Skin

    Description:
    When not pounding, gain 20% damage reduction against bullets and also gain a 10% chance to reflect shots to the attackers dealing damage back.
    <Max Reflect Damage: 10 HP>

    After gaining better athletic skills as a Tank, you can jump 50% higher and climb obstacles 30% faster. You also cannot be slowed by gunfire from survivors.
