Now what would you say are the requirements someone would have to meet before being one of said role? If they met said requirements would you consider them part of said role? Along with that, what would you say needs to happen before someone can have an accurate opinion on said role? -HAND Check out my corp's new website here :D -HAND

Xocoyol Zaraoul Superior Genetics 1465	Posted - 2013.11.14 22:11:00 - [6] - Quote Being able to sport at least ADV gear for said role, and play it often enough to not make rookie mistakes, this makes me take opinions/feedback seriously for said role. The above opinion is subject to change without warning according to personal whims. Closed Beta Vet Reading the forums detracts from overall enjoyment of the game
knight of 6 SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 608	Posted - 2013.11.14 22:12:00 - [7] - Quote scout: actually using the suit, it's just that simple. not "I used a scout suit once" or "I have a scout sniper" they are tourists.

About 75% usage and skilling into said role, progression is a large part before you can become an expert. Below 28 dB

Iron Wolf Saber Den of Swords 10235	Posted - 2013.11.14 22:36:00 - [11] - Quote Did some real omni-soldier work today. Hugged a supply depot and kept swapping fits as needed, help held off a massive attempt on C first the LAVs swarmed us and we had to start blowing them up, the foot infantry remaining had to be mopped up and went assault, then the took the ridge with snipers overlooking the socket and took out the sniper and laser fits to burn them down then swapped back to my shock fit and rushed the cliff and took out their drop uplinks and non snipers up there.

Maken Tosch DUST University Ivy League 5087	Posted - 2013.11.14 22:55:00 - [12] - Quote Ninja Knifer Lurking in the shadows, carefully picking out your prey, knowing how to flank, knowing how to avoid most scanners, always mindful of your corners, heavy reliance on passive scan range if you're a Gallente Scout, balanced kin kats with cardiacs on Minmatar Scout, no less than the ZN-28 nova knives, getting use to fighting with many disadvantages. And yes. CCP, thank you for hotfixing the knives. But please make sure they're at their full potential in 1.7.
Blaze Ashra Ametat Security Amarr Empire 25	Posted - 2013.11.15 00:04:00 - [13] - Quote My role? As often as I can. Assault dropship/gunship pilot. Missile tanker. When I can't. Battlefield control (uplinks, hives, remote explosives and hacking installations/objectives) Millita Swarms (just until I get enough SP for the Plasma cannon) + militia rail gun soma for AV Transport dropship (Look for team in the open and try to go to where they're heading if they get in) Dropship, temporary mobile cover/blockade in narrow walkways depending on situation. I Logi only if my team stays together. (sniffles) need more SP before I can upgrade my survivability so I play scout like. Requirements? If you can do it, you can do it, if not, then you can't. How well you can do something is entirely dependent on your success/fail ratio and that's not tracked. You'll be out matched sometimes and you'll be owned sometimes. I'm not a slayer but I try to make up for it as best I can. On opinions. It really doesn't matter. Everyone has their own opinions. My basic criteria for forming an opinion is that you have to at least acknowledge the other side of the equation because you are affecting someone else and the fallout for ruining there experience or outright eliminating there playstyle will make a negative impression. Also you, void and speaker should just give it a rest for a bit. There are strengths and weaknesses to every role. Tanks are extremely effective against infantry and Forges/Swarms are absofreakingloutely effective at raping tanks from anywhere with a clear line of sight. Both will be adjusted and it doesn't help bickering all over the forums about it. It's not our call to make. You'll do your thing, they'll do there thing and no matter what you say it won't change. Don't stress to much over it.

Michael Arck Anubis Prime Syndicate 1837	Posted - 2013.11.15 00:38:00 - [15] - Quote Role: Assault Requirements: Battlefield awareness. The exclusion of self. Knowing the different type of offenses, from concentrated fire to covering fire. Your life might be sacrificial but let it be for a good noble cause instead of silly one. Relay info to your team. Motivate. Comms is not the counselor's office. You are not to create unrest among teammates. Maintain focus even under the face of defeat. Use comms to relay vital intel. You are the frontrunner. Without infantry, a push cannot be made. Adapt to battlefield changes. Use your intelligence to avoid chokepoints and understand how to use flanking to your advantage.

DeadlyAztec11 Gallente Federation 2576	Posted - 2013.11.15 03:24:00 - [18] - Quote AV AV weaponry They have to have passion They need to kill a tank with a non explosive weapon, either light or Sidearm. Madness is the emergency exit. You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened.
Cosgar ParagonX 7781	Posted - 2013.11.15 03:30:00 - [19] - Quote Minmatar "Demoman" logistics Requirement: Mass Driver, demolitions V, and empty hopes that Dust 514 will have destructible environments by 2015 I tried to put a level into Amarr Commando once, but got a server notification saying "Why?"

Master Jaraiya Ultramarine Corp 1287	Posted - 2013.11.15 03:41:00 - [21] - Quote What role do you play? Primarily an HMG Fatty Now what would you say are the requirements someone would have to meet before being one of said role? Must be extremely masochistic with a puritan hatred for currency. Must love when Suits with lower HP and "lower" dps weapons strafe inside your HMG reticule and take no damage. Must have invested at least 10 million SP into said role thinking HMG would be included in the next "bug fix" patch. Must have lost 10s of millions of ISK in 100s of painfully frustrating yet mysteriously pleasurable battles against proto CalLogis with Duvolles and Proto Gallente Scouts with Mass Drivers in 1.2 - 1.3 releases. If they met said requirements would you consider them part of said role? No, because they would have gotten fed up and began using an AR with the Heavy suit. Along with that, what would you say needs to happen before someone can have an accurate opinion on said role? Player must have been a Heavy since at least Chromosome.

Ludvig Enraga KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 644	Posted - 2013.11.15 04:33:00 - [23] - Quote I am confused by the OP. What do you mean by 'role' - diff ppl mean diff things when they say it. I think a better question would have been what suit and weapon you play. Because those terms are real. Now compare this with roles. For example, you would often hear a 'logi role' which is misleading because it assumes that there is a play style that is attached to a suit which is not the case. Consider this: logi is a suit that can accomodates almost any play style; while, for example, scout fails just about any attempt of ppl using it. By extension there are no such things as 'logi role' and 'scout role'.

Yet we are both scouts

I put role instead of suit and weapons to broaden the possible responses For example, my role is 'Slayer Logi' Or; My suit and weapons is Logistics and Duvolle Assault Rifles By using role instead of suits and weapons people are able to (and will most likely want to) go into detail about their actions on the battlefield; as opposed to giving me a stale, dull, and straightforward statistic.

Kasote Denzara A Vulture 775	Posted - 2013.11.15 13:04:00 - [29] - Quote I am a mercenary, I do as I need. I'll shed Amarrian blood for the freedom of my Minmitar allies, but only for a price. If you think Plasma Rifles take skill to use and are fine as they are, you are the problem.
Jackof All-Trades The Southern Legion The Umbra Combine 243	Posted - 2013.11.15 13:14:00 - [30] - Quote I'm like IWS (omni soldier) except a tad more specialised, in specific being Gallente items. There are exceptions, for example skilling into prototype minmatar drop suits and minmatar equipment (dat rep tool). I would be surprised if there were more like me, but I guess they would be mostly closed beta players. I've seen a few, but none with sub-specialisations. But yeah, I've seen plenty of omnisoldiers "Pulvis et umbra sums." We are but dust and shadow GÇò Horace, The Odes of Horace \ Omni-Specialist / Focus: Gallente
