Just making a fun survey ...what was your most wasted certs investment ...the most regretable investment in your PS2 history ? :] Mine : 1000 certs for Vandal. Real crap imho.
anything after BR50ish.... by that time i already had my main and secondary suit and weapon setups the way i wanted them and still play using those main two services. pretty much once i hit 10k certs i dump 6k or so into something random and fully deck it out, knowing full well i will probably never use it
I had no really fails so for. When I'm uncertain about what to get I usually seek for the opinions of others. (Like asking per chat or forums or watching videos)
Pulsar C. I mean, it wasn't an entire waste, but I use the Battle Rifle SO MUCH MORE whenever I rarely use the Engie or LA. I haven't used the Pulsar C in over 7 months.
The MK-V Suppressed has it's uses, the integrated and better suppressor makes it a go-to option for longer ranges as an Infil who wants fast firepower at short-mid ranges and it's great for sneaking up on enemies as a LA. It does fall far when compared to other SMG's though. My worst would have to be Either Smoke Grenades (not UBSGL) or Baslisk for the Flash, should have bought the shotgun...
Maxing Nano-weave armor for every class I have. Really wish I put them in to class specific things. I'm just now putting certs in to the class specific stuff... I have wasted so much time...
T2-Striker for sure outclassed by any other RL in any category. even after a month it feels like an useless piece of metal in your hands.
Can only say... your using it wrong! I did a 24 killing spree yesterday, in 11min without death. Its one of the guns im most efficient with. Wasted certs? 5k (maybe more) certs on implant packs, around 20-30k on weapons I used once or twice. Most recently wasted certs on LA icarus jets, were funny in VR but horrible in any practical situation.
Fractures and striker, which are both outclassed by ES AV in other factions. Striker was good when I bought it as a lock-on. Fractures, well, they are our best long range choice but compare hit percentage to ravens and lancers... But some of these others, like smoke grenades and vandal, those are good when used appropriately. Smoke up a room full of maxes, which don't get thermals. Smoke up a tank / sunderer before you C4 it, saves you from many forms of interception. Smoke up their spawn room to eliminate 75% of outgoing fire.
