Regarding Engineering... it costs like 900k SP to go from lvl 4 to lvl 5 in the Engineering skill... and all you get is like 2 extra PG. So the cost vs. reward ratio is extremely low at that point. Granted, if you need it to complete your ideal fitting and have nothing else to spend points on, then go for it. I think that is what he is saying is a waste.
Ok thanks for clearing that up, i should have been looking at it from a increase per level rather than overall total to avoid this. Its not the end of the world for me though, i have really only been set back by about 2 weeks SP as i still have boosters, it could have been worse and dropped points into something of absolutely no benefit to the heavy at any point down the track lol.

True. Also Engineering will help fitting other suits you may want to use as secondary... I know if I only ran Heavy 100% of the time in this game I would pull my hair out. |

During chromosome i had points all over the shop and played everything, Uprising came and i went dedicated assault and upon respec i went heavy. Heavy is were the party is, no matter how gimped people say the class is, the HMG tears people up.
Plus the Forge gun is my favourite weapon in the game  |

yea u need to specialize first and foremost. branch out once you are well along on innates and have a weapon maxed out.
I play heavy 99.9% of the time and have no problem with that. the other .1% is bustin out my militia sniper rifle and roastin S'mores
but once u get things to a higher level, you need to look at the cost vs reward. Engineering for example, you gained about 3 pg while spending over a million SP, which could have taken your hmg prof from lvl 1 to lvl 4.. that's another what 9% damage that is innate? vs 2-3 PG?
learning the order in which u want to use SP just takes time.. its not that u wasted it, just that it could have been of more immediate use elsewhere
I don't level up stuff until I have to.. like electronics and engineering.. I get a weapon or something and need more space, then I get it by either adding more or decreasing off a weapon til I can fit it

it's actually right around 771,000 SP for a +3 PG on your proto suit. still damned expensive but like someone said already, it benefits all of your different suits. |
