I am currently at 18.7 million sp
What I mean by this is that I won't have anything worthwhile left to put sp into. Sure, there are more levels I could throw sp into to make my weapons or dropsuits SLIGHTLY better, but I'd rather not waste millions of sp just to make my guns use up one less pg...or something.
Vehicles are not my thing, so I haven't put a single point into them. I have the watch saga anyways...
To better explain, here's what I have calculated I will have at 21 million sp
-All passives such as armor, shields, biotics, engineering, etc. at level 4 (electronics and hacking at 5)
-Complex extenders and plates, as well as complex energizers and repairers
-Complex damage mods, hacking mods,
-1 proto dropsuit, 1 advanced dropsuit (Logistics mk.0, Commando A-1 series)
-4 prototype weapons all with at least proficiency 3 (Scrambler Rifle, Mass Driver, HMG, Forge Gun)
-2 prototype equipment (repair tool and drop uplink)
_____________________
The idea here is that I will have 4 effective roles that I can switch to on the battlefield to help my team. I can be a long range support medic, a close quarters speed hacker, an AV specialist, or a defensive pusher.
What's your opinion? Should I have focused my skills more to become the ultimate logi instead of branching off to the heavy class? Should I start to skill into other roles to be more versatile? What about trying new weapons and equipment?
I'm just surprised that I'm this far already. |

Depends on which fitting I'm using. Every fitting and weapon has a weakness.
If I'm running my logi, grenades, snipers, and vehicles are my major weakness as they often come as a surprise to me.
As a heavy, shotguns, assault rifles, and mass drivers can chew me up as there's no way I can dodge their bullets as much or run away from them to get a better angle. |

You can also take a break come back later.
I think it's funny when people suggest to me that I should take a break.
There's no other game out right now with a better medic class with an awesome medgun. None. Zero. Nada.
The last one was Resistance 2 co-op (TF2 isn't my thing), and now I'm here waiting for either Destiny or Battlefront 3. The only other ones are for PC, and I don't exactly want to get a gaming PC just to try them.
____________________
As for actually replying to your post...I have tried out many different playstyles with a bunch of different alternate accounts that I created way back in the closed beta. I currently have 4 other characters at about 5-6 million sp:
-A dedicated heavy class (this is where I found out I liked the heavy role)
-A dedicated vehicle specialist (I never really found tanks that fun, LAVs and dropships have no wp potential besides being cheap)
-A sniper/long range/sneaky scout gallente class (after 1.2 shotgun scouts seemed useless, and i had no idea if the modules were working, and I could never do well with a sniper)
-A super speedy shield recharge class (started with minmatar scout and kin cats and shield mods, turned into caldari assault with shield regulators)
My logi character turned split off into a heavy specialist and now I get around 2k+ wp per match because I can take out waves of enemies and tanks if needed, then switch back to support the front lines, or hack a few objectives and switch the odds in our favor, all while constantly earning wp.
But yeah, maybe I will start saving up for say a Caldari/minmatar heavy (or commando class :D), or maybe even the next heavy weapon. |

J/K but I would suggest putting points into nano tech
I have level 3 nanocircuitry
Better nanite injectors are horrible as they both take up more cpu/pg AND give you less wp potential in the long run. I always run milita or standard.
There's no reason to skill past the K-2's as they cost way too much pg/cpu, and the repair ones have to heal you first before they give you ammo. By the time they've healed you, you have wasted time, died, or run out of nanite clusters to actually get ammo from them. I run standard 80% of the time, and the K-2 if I have extra room on my suit.
So no, putting another 700k sp into them just to use prototype is worthless to me.
____________________
Basically, at the respec I chose two equipment to skill to proto. That turned out to be the repair tool for the core repair tool (105/s FTW), and uplinks for the ones that can drop 3 at a time, and the allotek stable (prototype uplink at advanced pg/cpu cost)
Now that I think about it, I should have only skilled to level 4 repair tool (BDR-8 is amazing) and level 2 uplink (stable uplinks are where it's at), but at the time I wanted to help out as much as possible in PC so yeah...
_____________________
As a last point, if the nanocircuitry skill helped make nanohives and injectors better, then I would have absolutely maxed that skill out...but all the skill does is unlock stuff... |

He probably went for the Caldari Logi.
I say specifically in my post that I can use the mk.0
That's 5 million sp into minmatar logistics, not caldari.

lol to everyone that keeps thinking I'm a combat logi.
I once scored 4382 wp just repping and keeping a heavy alive the whole match.
I regularly make around enough to get myself my own orbital...
I'd rather keep my suit alive and up for as long as possible with the cpu/pg...why put expensive equipment on a suit that can't hold it's own? |

crispipin wrote:You should become the ultimate logi, you will get tons of isk and sp
I already make about 400k isk and anywhere from 2-3.5k wp per match. The only major skill I'm missing is level 5 hacking, and maybe level 4 circuitry for repair nanohives. After that, the only thing stopping me from being better is level 5 light weapon operation (for slightly more cpu) and level 5 engineering for 3 more powergrid to fit some better equipment/modules. |
