IMHO, knife is only useful when you are reloading or somewhat occupied. 1 level knife will kill shamblers and weaker zombies, or at least detain them, which is enough to get the reload done (stupid me leveled it up to level 2). Adrenaline is mostly used to rush to the boxes when you have little time remaining. i do not have stim shot, mainly because my revive time is very short and good players avoid death (though i die a lot, so...), but seeing the comment above i think i might be tempted to add something to it.

Premium ammo perk is actually VERY good. Not only does it save you a LOT of money (seriously, a lot), it can also reduce your reload time to 0 if you manage it well (i.e. grab a grenade box when you only have 1 ammo left, and the premium ammo will override the normal ammo. you will use the premium ammo first and when it runs out, the gun will automatically be reloaded). 1.25 damage is nothing for 1-2 shot but it means around 4 shots, you will be dealing the damage of an extra one. Very good since it raises your average damage output.

Personally the SAS team does NOT require so much upgrades. Firstly, it isn't permanent. after half a minute or something they disappear, leaving you much weaker. The points could be spent to increase your overall damage output instead of short bursts of damage occasionally. Secondly, if someone else summons the squad, you're left in your weaker state with less damage and stuff, gaining less kills and cash.
