Zargul

It sounds in theory quite good. The only thing that is bugging me is, that it might be hidden under floortiles and on the station. It is a NT-Station and I doubt anyone will really hide 6 satchels on it which can have randomized loot. This only is a reason more to damage station property, and give security a legit reason to grief other people by saying "We are securing illegal equipment on the station". What I can imagine that there are some small bases out in space or on asteroids, etc. This would give people also the reason to explore more. In a nutshell your Idea is good for normal traitors, it would be indeed an interesting addition while giving them limited use, but it still should not be randomly available on the station.

Important concerns are: - What Traitor Gear shall have an inferior version? - How exactly shall it be used? - How is it obtainable? - Why would you need such a Gear? - Is there an alternative to such Gear?

To be fair, I do not see your point. You said non-antags shall be able to obtain inferior emags, etc but you do not state "how" they shall be able to do it. I'd like to see a more fleshed out idea since I think you and I have different ways of interpreting your first post.

The way Defibrillators currently work makes it quite overpowered to have an improvised Defibrillator. It would effectively take away medicals Job to actually revive and help people and I seriously dislike this idea. Our medical system is not going in the right direction to make it a balanced thing to add.

Well, I think most points have been said to be fair. Distributing, even weaker Syndicate gear among the crew, can cause a lot of havoc and to an extent even grief. As Coldflame also said, Traitors who would use such gear are on the safe side, especially if more than 30-50% of the crew would be actively using illegal(!) technology. On the other side, I do not understand why one would actually add even more weapons and gear that can actively be used to cause massive grief. In the end you wouldn't be even allowed to use said items according to the rules since you'd put yourself into the role of an antagonist, at least in most cases.

I remember Goons "Virtual Reality". You were buckled into a specific Chair and then your character would get copied over into another Z-Level. Death would result into a deletion of the virtual person. Plus you aren't able to take any of your items into the virtual world, that means, even as a Traitor you are very vulnerable while being there. It'd be much better and more interesting than the Holodeck itself.
