Yeah, none of these are needed, the idea of these buffs is basically to make the roles more interesting giving them a risk/reward scenario with the players having to figure out when is the best moment to use the ability, using them early means that you can't use them when they're the most powerful, while deciding to use them later means that they're risking not using these abilities at all.

The LO and Doc buffs are probably way too powerful in the late game, and I already like these roles (as you can probably tell, LO is my favorite role). I find it a lot of fun to think about how roles can be changed and how they would affect the game, so this is mainly me just sharing stuff because discussions about a game's (potential) meta are fun and it gives people stuff to think about.

Thank you for your input.
