Time per Class; so, this is how I play, eh?

I was a bit curious to whether the faction I play affects the classes and style I play, so I was looking at my Time per Class across factions and kind of noticed a trend of how I play. I never play Medic, ever. Light Assault is rarely touched, and Heavy just barely more than Light Assault. I tend to only pull a Heavy when I need to do something anti-vehicle or anti-air; not often for actual combat, but sometimes I give it a shot. Engineer is my 2nd most played class, and that's because vehicles or destroying vehicles. I don't generally fight as an Engineer unless cornered. MAXes, again, a rarely used class, only when I absolutely need them; when there's too much enemy air, or enemy vehicles, or the enemy pulls MAXes in an infantry fight. I'm never one to pull a MAX unless the odds are heavily against my faction in a fight. Finally, Infiltrator is 40% or higher across the board; and seems to the be the class I play the most.

The break down of my faction classes look kinda like this, so my style of gameplay is pretty even no matter what faction I play with the numbers pretty similar; so it says to me there's no class favouritism per faction for me.


On my NC; my time per class is divided into:
0% Medic
5% Light Assault
7% Heavy
36% Engineer
13% MAX
40% Infiltrator

On my TR; my time per class is:
0% Medic
9% Light Assault
13% Heavy
27% Engineer
10% MAX
41% Infiltrator

On my VS:
0% Medic
3% Light Assault
8% Heavy
26% Engineer
13% MAX
50% Infiltrator

It seems, I'm a career Infiltrator who sidetracks in the Engineer field.

What's your time per class, and do the numbers seem similar on different factions?

53%cloaker
32%engie
15% the rest

67% Engineer
12% Heavy Assault
11% MAX
10% Other

Combat Medic - 18%
Heavy assault - 28%
Engineer -19%
Other - less than 16% for each.
P.S.I really cant fly and i have only 11 min with my scythe. I decide - if i cant fly, so everyone shouldnt, i will see about that.

Engineer - 35%, mostly for repairing .
Infiltrator - 28%, only because of motion spotter and derpafking as stalker.
Medic - 18%, cert farming class.
HA - 15%, AV/AA/Lasher spam.
LA - 3%.
MAX - 2%, never had any reason to pull it until got second burster recently.

43% Engineer: as a tanker, you shouldnt roll with anything else, ever
27% Medic: my main infantry class. autohealer and cert machine are just too juicy to pass
13% Heavy Assault: only really used for AT/AA duty
9% Light Assault: for bailing out of aircraft, i dont really fly anymore though
5% Infiltrator: not feeling the class, i rarely snipe and i am just not the sneaky cloak guy, i rather like head-on 1vs1 fights
3% Max: one word, boring

my times aren't really a good representation of my playtime, because at the start of the game i spend 60%+ as Medic, but then i just bored of Assault Rifles and since then i play 60%+ LA and the remaining 40% are divided into propably 30% Engy+HRS/Galaxy and 10% Lasher

45% Infi
2% Medic
7% LA
32% HA
14% Engi
0% MAX

Most so far seem that people try their hand at most classes ..

No 90% + HA use ... Yet ( Cus a fair few about )

BR 93 TR

43% Heavy Assault
19% Medic
12% Engineer
11% Light Assault
9% Infiltrator
7% MAX

BR 61 NC

37% Light Assault
31% Medic
15% MAX
9% Engineer
4% Infiltrator
4% Heavy Assault

Pretty radically different.

I don't expect many "HA-only" people are gonna be posting their stats in here..

BR 58 NC, my "main", if you will:
60% HA; a to me, surprising low number; once I auraxium the Gauss Saw, I will have the God Saw.
At which point, I will have to contemplate what to auraxium next. Medic is tempting, but the GD-7-F makes a very nice sound when firing in the VR... for when you want everyone to know you're a psycho
23% infiltrator. Fail-sniping, bit of SMG-ing, motion spotter, pizza delivery, and a couple of times Fury-flash.
8% engi: I often run HA when driving vehicles: drive up, shoot till vehicle to banged up, get out with RL, AV grenade and two C4 presents. -> Engi is mostly to repair stuff, place AV mines, ..
4% medic
4% LA. no C4-fairy really.
Max: 1%. Dual bursters mostly; few times dual falcons. (I hate all those pesky snipers that keep sniping whilst enemy vehicles are taking out the sundies. and still I get sniped whilst engaging said vehicles, so they're not even being effective at counter-sniping.. do something usefull dammit. Enemy vehicle= priority target) Actually used the falcons inside a biolab. Quite effective on direct hits, far beyond the shotguns pitiful range.. Still, Max= cheese, except for AA, or AV.

BR33 TR: not playing it often atm; not sure I'm going to continue auraxiuming to unlock the butcher.
67% HA;
13% infiltrator
14% engineer
3% medic
2% LA
1% max (double burster)

BR42 VS:
50% HA ; eat my RL pesky vehicles
19% infiltrator (-> I got the short range semi-auto sniper on VS; I've been using it a few times)
18% engineer
7% medic
3% LA
3% max.
-> I'm in kotv, haven't been online as VS in a while; but it is there that I'm most likely to join a platoon. In which case, I pull whichever class seems usefull. Medic is fun in a team. Max is sometimes required; I actually like the "default" VS max: 1 arm AI, 1 arm AV; but both have no drop, allowing both to be used at once. Still, I think max usage is mostly AA.

Most of the time however, I'm still "suicide assignment": attack enemy vehicle as heavy with C4. Take on for the team is no problem if you see "chained explosive assist" on the death screen. (and you get revived anyway)

Overall, I prefer lightning for AA; the burster is not very accurate, projectiles are slower etc.

80% Light Assault. The rest is irrelevant.
9% Heavy, 5% engineer
2% MAX, 2% Medic
1% Infil.
I'm missing 1% somewhere.

63% engineer
27% Heavy
5% Infiltrator
4% Max
1% LA
0% Medic

Spend most of my time in vehicles or trying to destroy vehicles as infantry, usually don't waste my time killing infantry, they'll just be back in 10 seconds anyways, hence why i don't bother with medic.

I have:
6% Heavy Assault
50% Engineer
1% Light Assault
10% Infiltrator
29% Medic
3% MAX

So I do a lot of supporting. Healing, reviving, repairing, rearming. I think that's just my thing... I like doing the jobs that need to be done but that no one wants to do (like Skyguarding). Maybe I'm a secret masochist or something.

While I do play as an Engineer whenever I'm in my Lightning, I also just play as a foot Engineer. I have a total of 465 hours as an Engineer, but only 159 hours in a Lightning, 13 hours in a MBT, and 2 hours in a Harasser. This means that about 63% of the time I spend as an Engineer is spent on foot.

That makes it hilarious when people accuse me of being a biased tanker who never gets out of a tank. Nothing could be further from the truth, because I'm actually primarily an infantryman who happens to hop in tanks every once in a while!

I don't think infantry only players realize how much even vehicle players are forced to play as infantry, while 75% of my engineer time is in a vehicle, be it a lib, Vanguard, or lightning i still have 10 days of play time as an engineer on foot, and about half of my 54 days played over the last 2 years is on foot as infantry.

Meanwhile they'll rally against infantry nerfs against vehicles while having no clue about vehicle balance because they haven't spent a days worth of play time in one while having hundreds of days of time played, lol.

I can't imagine people enjoying this game if they only do one part of it, it'd be like playing WoW and only doing the quests and nothing else.

Huh, interesting question. Let's see:

Med: 8% 10% 9%
LA: 23% 48% 36%
HA: 31% 19% 14%
Eng: 33% 21% 35%
MAX: 0% 1% 1%
Inf: 4% 2% 5%

I've tended to gravitate away from LA a bit as I've unlocked more interesting things for the Engineer and Medic. I'm just more comfortable with the TR's Heavy Assault weapons than what the other empires have to offer; I really don't do well as a sniper, and I just don't like playing as a MAX.

95% infiltrator.
Overspecialisation at its finest.

41% LA
30% HA
9% Medic
8% Infiltrator
8% Engineer
4% Max

A Year or so ago LA made up 60% of my play time, just haven't been using it as much as I used to.

Careful, your butt-hurt is showing very strongly.

HA 43%
CM 19%
EN 18%
IF 8%
LA 7%
MAX 5%

Do you honestly think anyone will be able to get by using one class 90% of the time in this game? Really?

There is a few on Connery ... BR100's HA 90% + .. Highest I've seen is 97%

and jeez two posts above yours

Huh What ???

Grand leap of logic you have there Sherlock

On Linedan:
Medic 2%
Light Assault 1%
Heavy Assault 17%
Engineer 80%
MAX 1%
Infiltrator 0%

On Beltar:
Medic 2%
Light Assault 1%
Heavy Assault 24%
Engineer 72%
MAX 1%
Infiltrator 1%

I think I might like playing engineer a lot...

(By the way, of that Engineer time, 98 to 99% of it is on foot. I almost never pull vehicles.)
