2. Your first purchase: I would personally recommend that your first purchase be a mech. For 2 reasons 1. Diversity is the spice of life. 2. Whilst playing in a Max level 25 mech will grant you HC it will not grant you EXP unless you are willing to pay money to have that experience transferred.  So having a second mech available to start leveling up will allow you to keep gaining both HC and EXP, making your playtime overall more lucrative.

I'm trying to understand this. How does xp on my infiltrator affect my scout_ If I have my infiltrator at 25 why do I even need xp any more_

There is an option in the game that offers players a chance to transfer EXP earned on a max level mech to a lower level mech for hard cash money.

If your satisfied with playing only 1 mech and do not wish to level any other mechs then don't bother purchasing any other mechs.

Radar scrambler is actually useful if you have more then one down, I.e You coordinate with your team, if you get three down on say MA at E2 or something, radar become so overloaded they cannot use it at all. Beyond that I think the Repair charge is best defensive.

special loader + 1.5 seconds reload rate offense opt. and u spam tows, grenades. tow gains the most benefit as it's the longest reloading special as far as i know. try it indeed. or do not, that fast reloading tow rescues me against other A classes many time with little health.

Holy wow!

This is fantastic. I learned stuff from this post I'm looking forward to employing much of this new wisdom on the battlefield.

Thanks so much, hobo!

I am aware of this.

After rereading my original post i realized i did not stress this enough. What was i thinking.

I edited the OP.

"Probably a joke"

No. I won't sum it up for you.
But i might as well do it for the nubs.

Buy a 2nd mech first.
Save 4k HC for your level 25 prestige weapon.
Internals are pretty useless right now, don't waste HC here unless you have tons to spare and don't want to purchase any more mechs/items.
The tl;dr of CM's will get censored to fuzzy bunny.

My one exception to this is if you have all bullet or all explosive damage feel free to throw on the corresponding offensive internal, I also like using the thruster speed internal for more mobility

Edit: @ Hobo, I'm sure he means playing against other Mech Pilots, not objective mode.

Deu and XenoMorph are teasing me. They are both skilled players and have been playing for as long as i have. Not to mention they are fellow steel killers.

When did Xeno betray us for the enemy_! HE MUST BE KEEL HAULED!!!!

Special Weapons Loader or Explosive Munitions for a HEAT infiltrator_

Seems both have good benifts for it. I feel the Loaders down side is less of an issue though as it seems nigh on impossable to overheat on a HEAT infil, and HP is low enough alreday.

Thoughts anyone_

It depends on the game mode you are playing.
SWL for DM
And Explosive ammunition for cooperative modes like TDM,MA and siege.

Furthermore, its a known issue that the optimization reducing cooldown on the secondary is not working as intended. Maybe someone with this internal could do a comparison and let us know if this is the case for internals aswell.

[Necodreus]

With the 5k just got and my previous 3k hc from lvling, this will be handy when I get home, now just need to figure out my play style.

[h0B0]

Edited the OP i had misread the tiny text on the reinforced armor internal, it might be usefull now that i know it doesnt increase the damage done on you but rather it decreases the damage you deal on others.

I saw repeated use of the word "malus" and immediately got excited that someone besides me had played E.Y.E.

I just wish that game didn't feel so unfinished ...
Also sneaking around and hacking EVERYTHING.
