How many skills can you have is there a limit to is or could you max out every single skill in the game( which I'm sure would take forever but could you do it) the reason I ask is because I see a lot of posts about pilots and people say to have a fun ground guy. Also I'm thinking I want to be able to switch between assult and sniper I like using them both in a game because you can recon out with the assult and find a good sniper spot and if you die you can always change and go to that spot. I just want to know how the skills will play into that though.
Yes you could/can fully upgrade all skill trees.
However, it will take a long time.
Seeing that your new to the game, personally I suggest allocating mostly to Assault Rifles and Medium Dropsuits.
As these two items are the most diverse within the game and be fitted for the average FPS or new player.

You can get some Dropships with mounted weapons for the pilots, but these are expensive is both ISK and Skill Points.
The main firepower is from the weapons mounted within the bay doors, that are used by passengers.
So I really suggest you have friends or a reliable Squad if you wish to become a pilot.

billy kirkland wrote:3. With the skills what is the best way to go with a sniper and assult build if you have a suggestion I'm all ears.
As I've said above, I'd suggest a decent Assault Kit and use that to earn Skill Points for a Sniper/Scout/Recon Kit.
However do not go over Operation Level III, unless you really want to.

billy kirkland wrote:4. The skills that you buy and upgrade can you get rid of them and get the points back to use on something else how does that work? For example if I put points into heavy dropsuit and then go you know I don't like doing that I want to be faster or what ever and want to take those points out to put into a light dropsuit can that happen?

Although this isn't exactly for just a change of mind, more so compensate the changes to items being nerfed.
You could use this, however this is for a limited time and closes very soon.
That being said, the next major update I'm sure they'll be a similar thing if they nerf some of the other items.
As for being able to reset your skills at your leisure this is currently not an option, although should be suggested.
Even if it costs a somewhat heavy amount of ISK or even Aurum. |

Even if it costs a somewhat heavy amount of ISK or even Aurum. Skill respecs encourage flavor of the month game play and would make Dust boring. It's already pretty dull with the shear number of TAC AR users running around. I hope CCP sticks to their HTFU roots and never allows us to respec again.
I can see what you mean.
But when Nerfing a weapons, example the Laser Rifles those who put SP into should have it Respec'd.
Maybe never again offer full Respecs, but at least refund it for the against items.
I understand the whole hate for the 'flavor of the month' as I too hate seeing all the Tact. AR's.
However how about lose poor new players that put it all into Assault Rifles for the Tact. AR as they feel it's good.
Then suddenly CCP go ahead the nerf it, which hopefully is soon, that poor player is at a total loss. |
