Re: Modify the EP

no respec, but a one-time-reset

Re: Modify the EP

As long as your attributes are right and you don't start training industry on a combat character nothing you do will be a mistake, just in the wrong order.

Avoid training anything to above level 5 until you are sure that you want it.

Re: Modify the EP

The reason why there isn't a reset becomes apparent when you get a lot of EP.

It also prevents "Flavor of the Month/Day" type of skill assignments.

In addition, it is there to slow the progression. If you could reset, players would dump EP into basic robotics and small weapons for example, until they had enough EP, then reset and only do the minimal EP to get to a Mech; and of course to medium weapons.

So, yes it is possible to 'waste' EP, for instance going Basic Robotics 10, then deciding you want to drive a mech instead of an assualt.

The 45 day reset is actually very handy though. As you can spend EP on light/assualt based skills and be competitive, then reset and have enough EP to get to a mech and medium weapons.

Although, Alex is correct, and it is the way I went, is to put EP into 'non' bot specific skills like faster target locking, range, speed, and module fitting up to 5 until you settle on the first role you want to specialize in.

Re: Modify the EP

Here's a question.  If I play for 4 days and then do the reset, what happens to the skills I spent lots of NIC on?  I understand the EP is refunded, but if I spent say 1mil on skills, are those skills unlocked after the reset or is that money gone?

Re: Modify the EP

Everything on your character is deleted, as you deleted the character.
So the nic is gone.

Yes, you also lose any time you spend building up reputations, its is a RESET; the charcter is deleted and the account is completly reset.
