I am not sure if this has been posted or not. I bought all of the new upgrades and I'm going to start off by saying they are overpowered, especially if you have them all.
Proof of the upgrades
Electric Knife- When you knife a cryptid electricity arcs between any close cryptids damaging them and stunning them.
I'm not going to go into detail of each new upgrade because you can easily read the descriptions yourself. I am however going to explain how the upgrades stack and become seriously OP.
If you purchase Arcing Stun Ammo along with Cryptid Slayer Ammo when ever you shoot a cryptid it arcs between them and it also carries all of the elements from the slayer ammo. So when it arcs it acts as if you shot them as well with AP, incendiary, explosive, and stun ammo. It makes crowd control seriously easy.
With the Ark pistol attachment after upgrading your pistol once you get the arc attachment on it, which does a hell of a lot of damage. Mix this with Slayer Ammo and Arcing stun ammo and you'll drop cryptids while you sleep. This combo also makes short work of Barrier Hives for those of you who like Point Of Contact.
The Master Scavenger upgrade give you more powerful Hypno Knives and flares. I don't know what is more powerful about Hypno knives, maybe it lasts longer. I do however know that for more powerful flares they last twice as long and the flames are red not green.
Now to my favorite upgrade, Double Class. This is seriously OP but I guess it should be for 1000 teeth. You can have two classes for the price of the same amount of skill points. You also get both special abilities. I have been running Medic and Tank, double the health along with health regeneration. On top of that with the abilities out together, you heal/revive everyone while you're invincible.
The picture below shows the red flare (that I started off with for some reason) and the double class abilities, medic is up on the D-Pad and tank is left on the D-Pad.
If anyone wants to join up and play the new map shoot me a PM on here or send me a message on Xbox One, GT: SS Technician. (As you can see in the pictures above).
I apologize for the lack of aesthetics, I'm using my phone.

I would love to know the extent of the upgraded hypno knife. I tried a mammoth and gargoyle and it does nothing still. I have only noticed when you hypno a rhino its green rather then the original blue. Maybe it just last longer? Similar to the flare.
