    I'm going to save about 2000 of it in case there is a good sale coming up but I want to buy a couple of good weapons right now. I'm also buying the rockets for my scythe. :D

    Honestly, you were better off not getting SC. I shouldn't have bought a lot and I feel ripped off from it because of the "account-wide unlocks" crap they threw at us.

    Unless you're going to only play that character, don't use SC. :(

    Um I'll probably play light assault, heavy assault and sniper the most.
  5. Exploding Fist

    You're upset because they made it so you don't have to spend SC for the same weapon on each character, making your SC go farther? Your logic is irrational.
  6. Bloodskull

    Well, they would have gotten more business from me (not anymore) if they made the account wide unlock better. However, I'll stop ******** and address the thread.

    Honestly, SC I would use just to upgrade cosmetics. If you're going sniper, Bolt Action rifles kick a lot of ***. I think the Parallax (sp?) was the most powerful one. Also, the new Heavy launchers are coming out so waiting to trial those and see if you like the Vanu one would work well. Also, the Orion is one of the best damn weapons I've used. Keep that sucker and upgrade it!

    Pods were for sale a few days ago. Sad times right.

    Get a bolt action sniper with certs (100-250), use default Orion, and get either the Sirius SMG (highly recommend), Serpent, or VX6 for your LA. Spend rest on aesthetics.

    Don't buy anything until account wide unlocks arnt a complete joke

    Buy a shotgun for LA, not the pump action - its for newbies and will probably be nerfed soon. My preference is the 8 round semi-auto, i dont like auto shotguns.

    For sniper, if you are not NC, buy a bolt action. They are RAMS .50 / Parralax / Longshot.

    For HA, default gun is best for NC (SAW) and VS (Orion), not sure about TR.
    Wait until tomorrow, and buy the empire specific launcher (phoenix / lancer / striker).

    Enjoy!

    SMG and pump shotgun.
  11. Chiss

    I wouldnt recommend SMG, i feel it overlaps with Shotgun too much.
  12. Arkha3

    Why do you have to bring that up? Just yesterday there wasn't any account wide unlocks. What if it stayed that way?

    On topic: Bursters. Get them. Pods are good too. Don't spend all SC in one night, you might want to main a different class to change pace. Avoid the skyguard.
    When you get down to about 1,000~ SC, save them for daily deals
  13. CletusMcGuilly

    A shotgun might be nice for your LA, but I don't know how the VS ones perform so check them out first. If you're just going to snipe with the infiltrator class use your certs for the bolt action rifle instead of SC as I believe they're pretty cheap.
  14. GSZenith

    well he said inf so o_O.
  15. Chiss

    He said sniper ;) not inf.
  16. ThundaHawkPS

    SMGs are the best thing a new player can buy for SC
  17. VanuSovereignty

    Playing vanu right? Can't go wrong with the Sirius, Pandora, Nova or Phobos. For infiltrator get the parallax. That is the only real 'must buy' thing, because the specter is garbage.

    You'd be better off buying the vehicle bundle for 2k SC then. It has your Rockets and few more goodies.

    It's not easy to refund SC i think..
    Assuming a player bought 3 Rocket Pods for each character already. One of which is from the Vehicle Bundle sale. They could refund back those you bought individually but how are they going to calculate the ones from the bundled items? I don't think dividing the cost of each item in the bundle would be effective since there is an additional price cut other than the 50% off it's accumulated cost.
  19. S1eB

    Best all round carbine for VS LA is the Soltice SF, i'd get that if you haven't already.
    Slap a silencer, grenade launcher and a HS/NV scope on it. Equip Smoke grenades along with C4 and you become a flying one man army able to deal with most situations.

    For playing sniper go with the Paralax, defiantly the best bolt action.
  20. Phrygen

    they barely did that at all.

    Dont post again

    on top: lolpods, bursters and maybe a rocket launcher. Also perhaps carbine depending on your faction. Thats all that is worth getting .
