    Notes:
    • If you have binded the Goggles Buff with the Binder item, you can swap it out for the |E| Dying Berserk Buff.
    • If you prefer to be able to receive full heals with your first aid kit over reduced heals, you can swap out the Tenacity Buff for the |V| War Wounds Buff.
    • If you prefer to have an easier time saving the survivors without needing to use buffs to draw the infected's attention to you, you can swap out the |V| Protective Bag Buff for the Steadfast Aim Buff.
    • If you want to get a survivor to safety faster in exchange for not needing to use buffs to draw the infected's attention to you, you can swap out the |V| Enraging Waves Buff for the |E| Displacement Buff.
    • If you prefer to help out the survivors during a tank fight by boosting their fire rate/melee swing speed over giving benefits to survivors you revive, you can swap out the |E| Courage Buff for the |C| Battle Cry Buff.
    • If you want to be able to rush over to your teammates should they be in need of help with survival over helping survivors with their movement speed, you can swap out the Adrenaline Area Booster Buff for the Mobility Master Buff.
    • If you prefer to have a better AOE attacking buff that deals more true damage and can help survivors faster over a buff that can potentially help survivors, you can swap out the |C| Discharger Buff for the |V| Bird Whistle Buff. If you want to instead help the survivors escape from the infected with a wall holding them off, you can swap out either buff for the |E| Repulsion Wall Buff.
    • If you're levelling up any class from class level 4 to class level 5, the Trailing Haste Buff would be the best to replace since removing it from your buff set gives the least amount of impact on being able to help out survivors overall, you can swap it out for the |Q| Prowess Buff.
    • If you prefer to stop the survivors from dying over gaining bounty while alive to help the survivors later on, you can swap out the Survival Payment Buff for the |E| Non-Aggression Pact Buff.
    • If you prefer not to use buffs giving you extra bounty through moustachio bless and or you want a way to keep survivors alive at the cost of your live, you can swap out the Peanut Blessing Buff for the |E| Sacrifice Buff.
    • If you want to be able to have any friendly infected assist you rather than a pet charger, you can swap out the |E| Charger Pet Buff for the |E| Cupid's Arrow Buff.
