Ok, i'm now very confused on this subject.
Let me start by listing the information I have seen.
Dave has said in one post, that at rank 3, you can get 4 certs (the starting 2, and 1 for each rank above 1). This leads me to believe you get 1 cert per battle rank. Ok, so that fine. However, he ALSO said that air certifications will cost more due to their usefulness. Now, how can they cost more if you get 1 cert per level? So major confusion going on now.
FINALLY, Hamma said, that when he played the internal test, all the certs he saw cost between 1-3 points. So even MORE confusion.
What I wanna know is, which is it? :-) Do you get 2 points per level, and so most certs cost 2 (meaning 1 per level) but air ones will cost 3 and some lower ones will cost 1? (makes sense to me). Or will it be 1 cert per level as Dave implies in one of his posts?
Anyone know? I think, seeing as Dave confused me, he should come and clear it up, ya know, just to be fair :-D J/k hehe.

Once you allowed in a MAX armor, you can play as any flavor. the seperate versions do not require additional certs.
and i would trust dave's words if i was you. sometimes you'll have to save up your cert points. right now i have one sitting there all lonely, waiting untill i ding again. depending on the situation i find myself in at that point, i might pick up a mosquito or maybe a adv. hacking cert.
