3 Extra Cert Points?

[Biohazzard56]

I have my plan, as it stands ill get Uni-Max and Heavy Assault, im a MAX Master. And did better when i was in the max than i ever did using Light Scout. Once, i hit BR19 im not shure. Ive done this twice and Heavy Assault never works for me (it did over the summer), but ill probably drop it and get something else at BR19 or 20, maybe Engi and med. Sniping, Air Cav, and MAX never are leaving my charaectar.

Im a great sniper, i go back to a terminal and heal up, not worth 6 cert points to me.

How? I guess if you snipe tacticaly in the middle of a battle, but if you actually park youself on a hill and do a lot of sniping, then I am confused.

Im back to 3 certs, ill probably buy light scout.

Med packs Med isnt worth 3 certs when you can carry a few in your backpack.

3 medikits Pshield and engi is all i need, i've used up to 50 rounds sitting on a hill witout dieing in the middle of a zerg, if med is required you need to learn how to not get hit by counter snipers

I know two great ways to avoid counter sniper fire. They work almost perfectly when you are able to employ them, but that is not always the case.

The first is to just show enough of your head over the hill to be able to see the place you are sniping at. If you are sniping from a base or tower, this is hard to pull of.

The second is to constintly move while looking for a target. The only problem is you have to stop to fire.

What other ways are there to avoid enemy sniper fire? I told you my ways, now tell me yours.

Heavy assault.

I wish all my enemies had sniping.

My usual rate of being killed by snipers is about once a week. I haven't been killed by a sniper for two weeks now.

Waste of a cert for your empire. Purely for individual fun.

[Jaged]

A good sniper can get so many kills it isn't even funny. How is a grunt who gets equal or less kills (rarely more in my experience) any more valuable to his empire?

[Veteran]

He can hold territory, influence enemy equipment, destroy enemy deployables, hack out an AMS in the courtyard, kill MAXs, create hotspots in useful locations, etc.

Medical is great because then you can save your medkits for fights where the extra 25 hp makes the difference. Medical + medkits = teh win.

Drop the Scat max and pick up SA.

Pick up Engy or medic until BR 20 then pick up HA.
