Common small trait suggestions

[The Black Parade]

Common minor traits that I had in mind, like muffle, X% damage towards X weapon, etc.

I added names for organization

Weapon synergy trait
X% firerate, reload speed and damage while a [weapon] is equipped in your loadout.

+ negative trait
Negative stats are slightly reduced permanently on this gun (only possible on weapons with negative traits).

limb shot trait
has a 1 in X chance to deal body shot damage on a limb shot.

Boss trait
X% more damage against bosses

Crystal Synergy trait
Increase crystal stat by 10% while this weapon is equipped in your loadout (Reload Crystal 40% > 50%, Blaze Crystal 65% > 75%, etc. (Health crystal should only be +5 more hp).

Melee trait
On a melee kill, gain 40% reload speed, deploy speed, and accuracy for 15 seconds (melee only).

Class trait
While [class] gain X% [of this stat] for this weapon.

If I think of anymore ill add it here.

I don't ever want to see crystals that boost gun stats, that just leads to broken combinations and (literal) power creep. X damage to something is fine (bosses, zombies, whatever), but doing things like "make this thing more strong" is just dumb.

It's not boosting the gun, its boosting the crystal stat

Sorry, I read "Weapon synergy trait
X% firerate, reload speed and damage while a [weapon] is equipped in your loadout."

as a crystal, not a trait. Regardless, same thing, I don't think its a very great idea.

I like all of them except for the weapon synergy and melee.

I personally especially like the crystal trait, simply because some crystals are so underused, and if you get a weapon with a really good +crystal buff trait it could give you a reason to use crystals you normally dont. =)

(that and it should only work if its the only crystal equipped; that is, no crystal synergizers should allow the buff to be performed)
