    Hey'll... I updated some of the buff sets since all of today. This will be repeated throughout tomorrow and friday for the rest of them. So look forward to the updates!

    As for Offensive/Defensive Buff Sets and the associated buff sets within them, I renamed it to Balanced Buff Sets, since it paints a better picture of balance using offensive/defensive buffs.

    the following pages have been restored as of V2.6.17!

    The Types of Buff Sets
    Recommended Offensive Buff Sets
    Recommended Offensive Buff Set | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4

    + None.

    Changes:
    = The following buffs got Buffed:

    + |E| Auto-Medical (First Aid Kit will now activate if you are pinned by any infected, unlike before)

    = The following buffs got Nerfed:
    - |Q| Piercing Bullets (Max bonus is now based on your weapon clip size multiplied by the amount the bullet increases damage by with the buff multiplied by pellet count if its a shotgun. Most weapons that weren't the M60 Rifle or the Shotguns were not able to reach the +150% max bonus by default anyway)

    Damage returned as THP slightly reduced from 50% to 33%. However THP decay rate also slightly reduced from faster decay to slightly faster decay.

    All these buff changes and some description changes with other buffs were reflected in all of the above pages.

    = Changed some things around with the Recommended Equipment Buff Sets, related to the ones now using the Underbarrel Launcher Buff. This meant that some buffs to replace some buffs with got added in as well.

    Alright, went ahead and updated the Usage of Buffs and Buff Sets Guide with some buffs that received text related changes. No actual buff changes have been made, but I also did add in some new pages that might help out in the future.

    Usage of Buffs and Buff Sets Guide Updated! (V2.9.1 -> V2.9.4)

    The following pages got added in:
    Recommended Offensive Buff Set 6
    Buff Statistics
    Cash Requirements Comparasion
    FR-Pills Requirements Comparasion

    The following pages got updated:
    List of Equipment Buffs
    List of Utility Buffs
    List of Economy and Exp Buffs
    List of Buffs by Level
    Equipment Buffs Page 5
    Utility Buffs Page 2
    Economy and Exp Buffs
    Recommended Offensive Buff Sets
    Most Buff Set Pages. Very few did not get updated.

    Usage of Buffs and Buff Sets Guide (Version 2.9.4)

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in a new 6th Recommended Offensive Buff Set Page.
    + Added in a new Buff Statistics Page along with Cash and FR-Pill Requirement Comparasion Pages.

    Changes:
    = Updated the Recommended Offensive Buff Sets with links to the 6th Recommended Offensive Buff Set.
    = Updated some buff sets with the blue mark on some buffs to indicate that when equipping certain buffs, other buffs must also be equipped as well for either the buff to work or to be effective with that buff. This change happened as a result of the same changes to all buff sets within the Dormant Tank Guide.
    = Updated the |C| Discharger, |V| War Wounds Buffs with text changes. They did not otherwise receive actual changes. This change was reflected across all buff sets that included those buffs.
    = Updated the Observer Buff. You now need to be level 40 instead of level 20 to be able to buy it. But this shouldn't affect 95%+ of players.

    Removals:
    - None.

    ...

    Expect another update soon as we get any news closer to the Halloween Event, if it does ever get announced. :) I'll be looking forward to whatever happens this year.

    Did a minor version number change with the Halloween Update that came out a month back, then went on to make 17 more day changes over the course of 1 long month of November.

    Also have been busy with IRL on some days so it was why this changelog post took so long to come out. Anyways here are all the changes in it's entirety. There will probably be more changes to the Frequently Asked Questions Pages and the Calculations of All Survivor Buffs. However that will be saved for a future minor update.

    Done updating this guide until any future changelog update changes the buffs and or the description of any buff/buff enhancement.

    Usage of Buffs and Buff Sets Guide Updated! (V2.9.4 -> V2.10.17)

    The following pages got added in:
    Buff Enhancements (E) Pages | 3 | 4
    Recommended Balanced Buff Set 3
    Recommended Miscellaneous Buff Sets | 8 | 9
    Recommended Tier 1 + 2 Tank Buff Set | 1 | 3
    Recommended Tier 2 Tank Buff Set 1
    Recommended Tier 2 + 3 Tank Buff Set 1
    Event Candy Requirements Comparasion - Buffs
    Cash Requirements Comparasion - Buff Enhancements
    FR-Pills Requirements Comparasion - Buff Enhancements
    Event Candy Requirements Comparasion - Buff Enhancements

    The following pages got updated:
    Most Buff Pages
    Most Buff Set Pages
    Some Buff Enhancement Pages

    Usage of Buffs and Buff Sets Guide (Version 2.10.17)

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in several new Buff Sets. This was as a result of the new event buff enhancements and thoughts about other buffs which were considered to be viable for use in some of these buffs.
    + Added in new event buff enhancement pages given the new event buff enhancements that you were able to get within the Halloween 2019 event.
    + Added in 4 new Currency Comparasion Pages for the Buffs and Buff Enhancements. It shouldn't be a surprise that Buff Enhancement costs compared to Buffs are much more expensive than usual since the V2.0 update.

    Changes:
    = Most Buff Pages had page optimizations done to it, removing <top> links where it was unnecessary. The changes to buffs done throughout November, including and up to the changelog from 2 days ago however, have all been added in. Also added in the new event buffs and event candy currency prices.
    (Thanks to Mute for helping out with this. He was added to the Credits Page as a result)
    = Most Buff Set Pages got updated. Some buffs that were considered unviable for use mainly due to a lack of a good buff enhancement or use became much more viable for using in some buff sets. The Pain Stimulant and |E| Pain Moderation Buffs are both good examples of buffs that have been used more often now in defensive buff sets.
    = Updated some Buff Enhancement pages with changes that were done in November changelogs.

    Removals:
    - None.

    ...

    Hope you guys enjoy! *whew*, glad to be done with this update ^^

    ...

    Additions:
    + Added in Removed Buff and Removed Buff Enhancement Pages as Some Buffs and a few Buff Enhancements got removed. As for the removed buffs, some effects from them were merged into other weaker buffs to make them stronger since the removed buffs were less used in most buff sets.

    Changes:
    = Changed the description a bit on some buffs with the Essential Buffs for Low and High Levels.
    = Made many description changes across the Buffs and Buff Enhancements that got changed, this change was seen across all pages associated with the respective buffs, apart from buff set pages.
    = Some Buffs got a change in Cash and FR-Pill Requirements, this meant that the Comparasion for Cash and FR-Pills for Buffs and Buff Enhancements got updated as well.

    Removals:
    - Have not removed the 4th pages of Offensive, Ability and Utility Buffs as a result of some buff removals from those categories respectively. Rather, I left a message on the pages stating that: <There are no buffs here on this page right now. This page will be updated should any new buffs be added in>. This means that in the future these pages could receive updates again should any new buffs get added into mgftw within the future.

    Hope you guys enjoy this update! Look out for more updates related to buff set changes, given the buffs that got removed. Some buffs that were changed, have now become more viable in more buff sets, especially with a few becoming viable for VS.
