Your first certs, and why?


The max certs you can have is 21 at level 20. You start out with 2 certs...

Info by PSU

Standard Assault
Pistols and light rifles (AMP, empire-specific pistol (Beamer, Repeater, Scatterpistol), and Suppressor). (NOTE: This is a default certification. Everyone gets this one.)

Standard Issue
Everyone gets this default certification. It's a standard-issue light armor with capacity for a pistol and rifle.
So I'm guessing you start out at level 1 with those 2 certs. You go into the sim, and get to level 5. You now have 6 certs.

1st Character Certifications:
Standard Assault Weapon
Medium Assault Weapon
Heavy Assault Weapon
Standard Issue Armor
Agile Armor
Reinforced Armor
Next will be MAX

2nd Character Certifications:
Standard Assault Weapon
Standard Issue Armor
Wraith
Basilisk
Harasser
Marauder

3rd Character Certifications:
Standard Assault Weapon
Standard Issue Armor
Mosquito
Reaver
Galaxy
Combat Engineering

4th Character Cerfifications:
Standard Assault Weapon
Standard Issue Armor
Agile Armor
Reinforced Armor
Medical
Advanced Medical

But I think these certs will take more than one cert point. I don't see any character starting out with that much stuff.

Hard to say without knowing numbers, but I'd head directly for Infiltration Suit, and then for Hacking, and then for a Wraith. Depending on how much that "armor" can hold, and how the cert really works, I'd then procede to Combat Engineering, and perhaps fill out the rest of my spots with various vehicle certs. I'd not take any other Armor or Weapon certs though.

Straight for the vehicle certs. Shooting people is all fine and good, but I'd rather be a driver.

Despite the fact that ***920;***968;***928;�***920;***1071;1***928;***287; the opposition is the point of PS, I'd rather develop a reputation in-game for being a 'get you there and back again' driver-pilot.

i read that you can hang around in VR training for awhile (like bep lvl. 5), if so, i'd hang around for a couple levels so that i could get med. armor, med. aslt., medical and adv. medical. if light armor is a pre-req., then i might stop there and then get another level knocking off hostiles. after that it'd be light armor (if it's not pre-req.) and vehicles there-after

Reinforced
Medium Assault (Gauss)
Heavy Assualt (Jackhammer)
Medical
Hacking

I'd then grab some more weapon certs and then get the advanced med and hacking. I want the other weapon certs incase we hit a lot of vehicles or I feel like launching a volley of nades everywhere And it never hurts to be able to use any weapon your enemy drops.

My 2nd character would go

Infiltration
Wraith
Medical
Advanced Medical
(whatever cert is needed to drive the AMS)

What I plan on doing is beind a very difficult to see med I'll be going around healing/reviving guys on the battlefield while the enemy wonders what the hell is going on when people start popping back up I just hope I can fit a sonewhat decent amount of med applicators and canisters so I don;t have to amke as many trips from the AMS.

Well, My overall goal is to get something like

Reinforced
Punisher/Cycler
Lightning
Galaxy
Adv. Medical

I honestly cannot say what would be my first certs, because its hard to tell what the chain is for what I want to get.

I will have to wait and see what would best help my squad, in order to decide what the first certs will be.

My first cert will probably be a reaver or mosquito. After that i'll head straight for enemy terrority and frag some peeps. Then from time to time i'll head back to VR to get more certs but i'll most likely get them from in game action, VR doesn't interest me much other than being able to try everything out.

Well i would assume no, if med armor can't use all vehicles it seems to me the tiny basilisk will be one of those.
