I started a nso char and all I could think about was im missing almost everything from my main account. All the situations I previously had better tools for, i suddenly didnt have any specialized tools and I just went back to my main that has spent i think around 100k certs on stuff by now. NSO chars are good for the game as they simply come in to balance the factions, I think it would be cool if NSO chars just had a 50% or 100% xp boost on all the time... or atleast until they reach like rank 40 or something.
haha, that's the thrill of it. It's not your first playthrough. You're good at this now. How fast can you blaze a precise trail through the unlocks to get a new character effective? Personally I run a membership. Comes with both XP and Nanite boost, I'll throw a heroic on there too.
