Hacking by far. Think about it: You get into an enemy base, or tower, by some means that I don't know, you are hurt, bad, armor = poo, health is not so good, you hack a equip terminal, swap armor, and then go hack a med terminal. All of which can be done in 15 seconds.

Or get shot in the back, whichever comes first. Hacking doesn't do you any good when you're pinned down behind a rock.

Okay for thoses that don't know. If you have an eq handy and your armor is toast. You can switch to a different armor then switch back and be full again. So if you are in agile>getdamaged>eqterm>standard>agile>fresh armor>get it?

You know it really depends on what class you are.

It does...Infil i dont think can get by without AdvHack. Whereas Reinforced Grunts can rarely get by for long without Engi and Medical. While pilots/drivers need Engi, Hack/AdvHack may be of more value. But AMS deployers IMO shouldn't have the Cert if they can't take care of it. Meaning they must be CEs in order to defend it.

streamline best post of the bunch IMO, seen too many AMS's that had no defenses just get raped by one person, while also have spawned and was choosing a favorite outfitting then heard mines go off only to look around and see a dead reinforced.

IMO if your going to be a driving a vehicle for most of the time, ENG is a must. With med and eng you can own being a grunt.

there isnt realy a "most useful skill", its the combinations that work best..

infil: adv hack, combat eng, basic med
grunt:basic eng, basic med
support: basic med, combat eng, hacking
tank/reaver driver: basic eng,hacking

Once again you people mean ADVANCED HACKING. Some noobs might not get the idea. And for high ranking people two certs means a lot.
