If you are a shooter then select an Assault suit or a Logi and max it out. Yes it will take a lot of SP and probably 3-4 months to get to a really decent level (not max but good) and you will be able to go toe to toe with a proto with some chance of victory 1 vs 1.

If you can last 6 months and stick passive and active boosters on your account you will have 13 mil SP + which will give you a very good and balanced proto fit, including core skills, and at this point it will be all about your abilities and not about your SP and skill levels.

This game is all about the long haul. Serious ability will however cut down on the required time and SP needed to be really dangerous in the game. There is a limit to the amount of SP you can invest in a given skill. Once it is maxed you can not improve on it and you need to move onto another skill.

As such the vets in the game will be investing in another suit or vehicle etc when you max out your current suit but that is all they will be able to do.

Avallo Kantor DUST University Ivy League 1	Posted - 2013.05.29 22:03:00 - [4] - Quote There will likely always be a gap, but after a certain point it doesn't matter as much. After a certain point you can only expand side ways. (I.e at a certain point you can't be better with a certain fitting) So if you specialize and focus on that, you'll soon be as good in that (skillpoint wise) as anybody can be.

Its free to play though, and they will continue to gain Passive SP, so you may well never catch up (depending on how inactive those who came before you become).

Iron Wolf Saber Den of Swords 4748	Posted - 2013.05.29 22:38:00 - [32] - Quote Around 8 Million SP you should be capping out your first suit and gun. around 12 you shoul dbe able to have two different guns capped out and started exploring additional fits. Either way you can get prototype and be squashing people as early as 4 million sp in terms of gear wise alone. Skill wise it takes some practice but once there you can certainly stomp on proto-suits.

Too bad that's not true. It's about 6M just for the generalized fitting skills, another 3M for one suit, another several million for tanking, and several additional million between your gun, sidearm, grenade, equipment. Then there are the nice to have passives. All in all the true cost is around 20M for one fit to truly be considered proficient, let alone maxing a role.
