This guide will only cover the Survivor Buffs and Buff Enhancements that can be equipped on the mgftw servers that are running Campaign or Survival game modes. If you are one of those survivors that need the basic knowledge on buffs and/or or are needing to refresh your memory on a few buffs you forgot about what they do, then this guide is for you!
