    1. Finale Dominator+

    Buff Requirements:
    Cost: $9,900 Cash
    FR-Pills Cost: 10 FR-Pills
    Required Level: 135

    Description:
    On finale/survival maps, Special Infected kills give a stack of Finale Dominator, max 15. Each gives 2% Attack, 1% Defense, 1% move speed, 0.5% fire rate, 1% reload speed, 2% ammo save chance and 1% deploy speed. A stack is lost if you haven't killed a Special Infected in (25-stacks) seconds, you get pinned, slapped or downed. Cannot gain stacks if down. Uber Infected give 2 stacks. All stacks are lost on death.

    Tips on Buff Usage:
    • As a Controller/Guard Player, if you're in an area where a large amount of SI will be coming from, consider the Finale Dominator Buff. The benefits that the buff can provide is helpful for survivability for when it comes to ammo usage and if you're able to continuously kill SI while being able to help provide for the survivors. In other cases where you may need to help the survivors more on some Scenarios, you may want to consider more bounty giving buffs instead.

    Benefit in Buff Sets:
    On finale/survival maps, SI kills give a Finale Dominator Stack (Uber Infected give 2 stacks), max 15. Each gives +2% Attack, +1% Defense, +1% move speed, +0.5% fire rate, +1% reload speed, +2% ammo save chance and +1% deploy speed. You lose a stack in (25-stacks) seconds, if pinned, slapped or downed. Cannot gain stacks if down. You lose all stacks on death.

    Buff Enhancements that can be applied to this Buff:
    • General Dominator: Removes map limits. On non-finale/survival maps, max stacks reduced to 10 and -5 seconds faster stack decay.
    • Finale Overlord: Max stacks increased to 20. Death now only halve stacks. You cannot lose a stack after gaining/losing 1 for 3 seconds.
    2. |E| Charger Pet+

    Buff Requirements:
    MG Store Cost: $4.00 USD
    MG Store Link: https://store.mgftw.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=7&product_id=56


    Event Requirements:
    • Get it for 75 Mint Candies from the Mint Candy Market within !event. Only during the Halloween 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2021 events.
    • Obtain it from the Bitter Chocolate Box for 15 Cupid Tokens, letting you get the buff at random from the list of buffs you don't yet have.

    Description:

If the pet did not die, it can be recalled and respawned at will. While recalled the pet heals 2HP a second, up to 75% of its max health.
    <If the pet is lost within 3 seconds, it can be respawned>
    <✖ VS>
    (Command: sm_pet)


    Tips on Buff Usage:
    • The |E| Charger Pet Buff is more seen as a support tool, that can help you by seeking out for SI and killing them without you needing to go find them yourself. Best used on COOP maps along with Helping/Assassin Drone and other support buffs if you want more ways to be able to kill SIs without needing to use your gun. Best to only save using your pet infected for when it's really needed if you're able to kill the SIs easily without too much trouble.

    Benefit in Buff Sets:
    Allows spawning a Charger Pet from the !buy menu that attacks and kills SI. It has 1,000HP, deals 250 HP claw damage with a chance to stun but only has 1 life. If not dead, it can be recalled and respawned at will. While recalled it heals 2 HP/s until it reaches 75% max HP.

    3. |E| Cupid's Arrow+

    Buff Requirements:
    MG Store Cost: $2.00 USD
    MG Store Link: https://store.mgftw.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=7&product_id=34


    Event Requirements:
    • Obtain it from the Sweet Chocolate Box for 15 Cupid Tokens, letting you get the buff at random from the list of buffs you don't yet have.
    Description:
    Shooting a Special Infected with the AWP/Scout snipers while holding the WALK key will cause it to fall in love with you, attacking other infected and protect you.
    -To Special infected: Lasts 90 seconds and only killable by you.
    -To tanks: Lasts 7 seconds and anyone can damage it.
    <Cooldown: 3 minutes>
    <A single infected can only be affected once in its lifetime>
    <Maximum 2 non-Tank pets alive at once>
    <✖ VS>


    Tips on Buff Usage:
    • For the |E| Cupid's Arrow Buff, it has quite good usage in 2 ways. The first way is to use the buff effect on any Spitter and let it go around healing other players, this could be helpful if the other survivors are holding down in an area before they need to move on. In another way, the buff effect gets used on any Tank, allowing the survivors to freely damage it for a few seconds while it can't hurt anyone. Knowing when to use the buff at the right time on your infected target is important on Tanks, since you can only affect them once.

    Benefit in Buff Sets:
    Shooting an SI with AWP/Scout snipers while holding the WALK key makes it fall in love with you. The special infected attacks other infected and protects you.
    - On special infected: lasts 90 seconds, only killable by you.
    - On tanks: lasts 7 seconds, anyone can damage it.
    <Cooldown: 3 minutes>
    <A single infected can only be affected once in its lifetime>
    <Maximum 2 non-Tank pets alive at once>
    <✖ VS>
    4. |E| Helping Drone*+

    Buff Requirements:
    MG Store Cost: $4.00 USD
    MG Store Link: https://store.mgftw.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=7&product_id=55


    Event Requirements:
    • Get it for 100 Mint Candies from the Mint Candy Market within !event. Only during the Halloween 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2021 events.
    • Get it for 20 Summer Tokens from the Summer Market within !event. Only during the Summer 2020 and 2022 events.

    Description:

    The helping drone will shoot at nearby infected, dealing 80 damage per shot, firing every 0.8 seconds. The drone shoots at all infected, prioritizing Specials pinning you in range. Every 3rd hit to any Special/Witch or 2nd hit to any Common Infected deals x3 damage.
    <✖ VS>
    <Incompatible with other drones>

    Tips on Buff Usage:
    • The |E| Helping Drone Buff when used against the CI/SI in COOP can help you out by killing any infected that get nearby and help make progressing in the map easier for you. It can also help you to avoid using your knives if pinned on some SI since the Helping Drone prioritizes pinning SI and can kill fast with true damage dealt. If aiming for Tank damage, use the |V| Assassin Drone Buff instead.

    Benefit in Buff Sets:
    The helping drone fires at nearby infected, dealing 80/0.8s damage per shot. It prioritizes SI pinning you in range. Every 2nd/3rd hit to any CI or SI/Witch deals x3 damage.
    <✖ VS>
    <Incompatible with other drones>

    Buff Enhancements that can be applied to this Buff:
    • Medic Drone: Drone shot has 3% chance to heal for 80HP.
    • Scavenger Drone: Drone has 5% chance to give one base mag as ammo for primary weapon.
    5. |V| Assassin Drone+

    Buff Requirements:
    Honor Points: 130 Honor Points

    Description:

    The Assassin Drone will shoot at Special Infected, dealing 300 damage per shot firing every 4 seconds. The drone only shoots Special Infected and Tanks. Each consecutive shot on the same target deals 300 additional damage (Max: 900). Upon reaching maximum damage, damage resets to 300.
    <Incompatible with other drones>
    <✖ VS>

    Tips on Buff Usage:
    • The |V| Assassin Drone Buff is more helpful as an offensive buff used for damaging tanks rather than support against SI, although sometimes it's the preferred drone used in some SI killing buff sets. As long as you can keep being close to your infected target and don't go away from it, you'll deal more true damage overtime. If you do want more help with handling the CI around you however, consider the |E| Helping Drone Buff instead.

    Benefit in Buff Sets:
    The Assassin Drone fires at SI/Tanks only, dealing 300/4s damage. Each consecutive shot on same target deals +300 additional damage (Max: 900 HP). On reaching max damage, damage resets to 300 HP.
    <Incompatible with other drones>
    <✖ VS>

    Buff Enhancements that can be applied to this Buff:
    • Medic Assassin: Assassin Drone shot has a chance to heal for 80HP. Chance is equal to 3% of damage dealt.
    • Scavenger Assassin: Assassin Drone has chance to give one base mag as ammo for primary weapon. Chance is equal to 5% of damage dealt.
    6. |Q| Prowess~

    Quest Requirements:
    You can get the |Q| Prowess Buff as a quest reward from the supply boxes after completing the Search for Prowess Quest (Level 250) within Tyler's Questline. This can only be done once you've reached class level 4 with any class for the first time.

    Description:
    Allows your current specialization to gain class experience towards level 5 as long as Prowess is equipped. Increases class experience from class actions by 50%.
    <✖ VS>


    Tips on Buff Usage:
    • You must always have this buff equipped at all times whenever you want to level up any class that is at class level 4 to class level 5. If in any Scenario with a main tank (Special Tier) tank alive, then you can replace the buff for a better buff to be used, since you'll be able to earn cexp at a cost of -25% cexp earn reduction without the |Q| Prowess Buff equipped. You also don't need the |Q| Prowess Buff if completing quests/using CEDA notes as you'll earn cexp without needing the buff equipped. In all other cases, it's good to equip this buff for levelling any classes faster that you're working on at any class level.

    Benefit in Buff Sets:
    Allows you to level any class at class level 4 to class level 5. Gives +50% increased class experience from class actions.
    <✖ VS>
    7. |E| Supporting Role*

    Event Requirements:
    • Get it for 150 Mint Candies from the Mint Candy Market within !event. Only during the Halloween 2018, 2019 and 2021 events.
    • Get it for 30 Summer Tokens from the Summer Market within !event. Only during the Summer 2020 and 2022 events.

    Description:
    Deal (Tier x 10%) less Tank damage but +20% attack to SI, +40% to SI near/pinning an ally. Every 4th own bought Medkit/Defib used on ally will have 2 charges. Shove ally with primary to give 30% ammo costing 20% your own. When an AOE skill triggers, all affected get 5s Moustachio Bless.
    <Double tap USE with primary while looking up to toggle ammo share>
    <20 second wait to give ammo to same ally>
    <✖ VS>


    Tips on Buff Usage:
    • As a Support player, if you're more focused on helping out the survivors with their own survival rather than worrying about tank damage, the |E| Supporting Role Buff should be used. While being able to give ammo to the other survivors is nice, it should only be done if you're not doing much SI killing and/or are focusing on defibbing. To get the most use of your buff as well, be sure to be the player that's doing the defibbing, if you know when the defib should be used, since other resuscitated survivors gaining moustachio bless can help them to avoid becoming killed again quickly.

    Benefit in Buff Sets:
    Deal (Tier x 10%) less Tank damage, but +20% attack to SI, +40% to SI near/pinning an ally. Every 4th own bought Medkit/Defib used has 2 charges. Shoving ally with primary gives 30% ammo costing 20% your own. When an AOE skill triggers, all affected get 5s Moustachio Bless.
