    Tips for effectively using this buff set: <top>
    • If you're a low level player and want damage increases, you'll want to go for the Ranged Expert Buff. It can help you to deal decent damage overall to tanks, especially tier 2/3 ones and it frees up buff slots for other buffs that can help you to survive better without needing damage increases.
    • If you however want to deal more damage overall as a higher level, you're better off going with a set of buffs that can increase your damage dealt and help get the infected killed faster, provided that you can help kill the tanks as well yourself.
