Dust 514 is constantly growing and growing. Therefore the game will eventually get harder and harder for new players and us veterans. But with a few weird, smart and tricky tricks we will be able to (maybe) outsmart the game.
feel free to post your tips here. but no offensive comments.
Devs and GMs are also welcomed! BTW can you guys support the idea of this thread being a Sticky! please? |

Here are the best tip,guide and strategy of the week! (9/17/2012)
Best tip:
GM Kiriap wrote:move, cover, shoot and work together with your squad.
Best guide (for dropships):
Telemachus AREMNi wrote:I'll add my flavor to this...
Here's what I usually like to keep in mind while I'm flying Drop Ships. -You can rapidly deploy to any area on the map, allowing for quick flank attacks onto the enemy. -You will be rapidly disposed of by enemy swarms if you stay on one area of the map for too long. -If engaged by swarms, run for the hills while keeping as low as possible, using everything for cover to prevent lock. -The lives of your gunners and the life of your wallet matters more then kills, skill points or anything else. -Fly High in the clouds, out of enemies direct line of sight or Fly Low behind buildings and cliffs. Anywhere in between will put you in the direct line of sight of enemy swarms, thus an easy target.
These are things I mainly learned from a different game, but seem to translate to Dust easily.
Best strategy:

Once you are happy, start spending your ISK & SP in the relevant fields. But survivability is the name of the game, you may have the most powerful gun in the universe but if someone can take you out with a sharp stick then it's a bit pointless. Stick with your team at all times. If you see someone hacking, join in you'll get the assist points. Also, don't steal a team mate's tank, especially when friendly fire is turned on. |

My tip:
Stick to cover all the time because no matter how fast you run, you still can't dodge bullets like Neo does. |

1) Even minor teamwork, such as squading up and sticking with them, makes you far stronger than four single soldiers, no matter how individually skillful they may be even if just because the first person being shot in the back can warn the others.
2) You don't *have* to take the direct route to the objective, sometimes the longer route is safer and can give you the element of surprise. Having a brief breather and regrouping at your main spawn with your squad and calling in some transport is never a bad thing - unless the game hangs by a thread! |

Hello. I'm a new member and I want to back up the sticking together method. I only like fighting in squads and I realized that a squad is a far more deadlier force. Even if you didn't get the kill you still got the assist. It's all about winning on the battlefield. |

- Stick with groups. You less likely die. You die, you lose ISK. - Don't run in open field, try running around covers. - Heavies plus Submachine gun - Upgrade the skill that relates to increasing the rate of shield and armor - Upgrade the skill that relates to increasing weapon damage - Militia gears aren't so bad if the skill is maxed out. This saves more money. |

As mentioned above, concentrate on building up your shield & armor skills (e.g. mechanics?) first before delving into the other skills. Being alive is a much more fun way to playing the game.
Stick with the militia starter fits when you first start, try each of the different builds until you feel comfortable & have chosen what you want to specialise in. Once you are happy, start spending your ISK & SP in the relevant fields. But survivability is the name of the game, you may have the most powerful gun in the universe but if someone can take you out with a sharp stick then it's a bit pointless.

- You have a radar use it. No, really USE IT. - Tactical assault rifle(TAR) and Decent level Light weapon sharpshooter keeps snipers at bay. (read: 6 feet under) - No.. You do not use swarm-launcher against infantry. - It's generally a bad idea to stand still against a TAR user, especially so when hes in Semi-long range. - If your team is full of feeders (players that make you think they have suicidal tendencies) take it easy and play defensive or swap to inexpensive gear. No reason to take unnecessary risks. - Teaming up with good players is good, teaming up with bad can be bad, they might reveal squads position and lure all kinds of bad **** to your location. like... squad of good players..
