Artificer awesomeness aside, lets look at their common gear. Everybody is carrying the same staff, which takes the place of the proton packs. Everybody has some sort of dreamcatcher on their belts, which would be the traps. Little gelatinous cube version of Slimer down there.

Thing is, while they all have different clothing other than the above, they all have exactly the same gloves. I can't think of anything that the Ghostbusters have that would translate into the gloves, and I can't think of an Artificer item that would be good enough for all of them to have.

UMD boosters so they can activate their staves and traps easier?

The Gloves could create a shield that stops what they need to be stoped

Thats an idea. They could be Bracers of Armor with Ghost Touch to provide some extra AC against the nasties. Wouldn't stack with Winston's mundane armor though, but he could be wearing that for the superior AC against more physical foes, while the rest prefer to just pop infusions on their bracers for extra AC in those cases.

I'd say increased Fort over AC boost.
like some thing that allows them to handle oozes

Gloves of dexterity? The dex boost would help with their proton guns... errr... wands and traps.

Dunno, the artist's name is in the pic, but a quick web search didn't turn anything up.

Probably something to protect them from the backlash caused by crossing the streams.
