I remember reading a post from someone on here that gave some newbie advice and thats exactly what he said.

Focus everything on GANKING (weapons), then TANKING (shields/armor), and then SPEED (Bionics).


I didn't really know what to think honestly because I was specing as a Scout.

So I started out putting my points first to get a Minmatar Light Suit and then put the rest into Bionics but I only got to Level 4 and then I started putting my SP from later matches into other things here and there and then finally got to Level 5 in Bionics.

I use a Militia Shotgun which required no SP and still kicks ass.

I now have Shield at level 3 and armor at Level 2.

I'm about a few SPs away form finally graduating into an actual Scout Dropsuit.

Now my problem here is... I think I die way too fast and I know that's common for a weak ass armor and shield Scout. Sometimes I'm even doubting myself when it comes to using a Shotgun (but I can't get away from it because I love and when I'm up close and personal I can sometimes take out three dudes. Also, even though I have Level 5 Bionics... I don't feel like I'm fast enough to doubt throw some people shooting at me (although I've done it a few time). So basically I'm having some regrets and wondering if I should just focus on getting both armors and shields up before I go into a Scout Suit or should I just go into a Scout suit right now? I'm sitting on a 100-something thousand SP and I want to start spending wisely.

Also... my other questions for the community...

How did you spec into your character?
What do you regret?
If there's a respec where would you put your first 500,000 points at?
Do you begin your character in a particular area such as GANK, TANK, or SPEED?

Was me Gank then tank then speed

if your CQC with a shot gun then speed then tank but for everything els its gank tank speed
