    Just wondering what endorsements are most common in your custom builds.

    Look at all of your custom builds, and regardless of position, which endorsement is the most common. For instance, I have RoF in all 6 of my builds, so my choice is RoF. I have Armor in all 6 as well, but I still feel RoF is the one Id rather keep if I had to choose.

    Do not base the poll result on which Endorsement you use in the GOLD slot the most, I want to know which one you use the most period, ie: which one is in all 6 etc.

    If I could make multiple polls, I would, but for the purpose of this thread, i'm just interested to see what endorsement type sees the most play.

    My guess would be Rate of Fire or Armor, as both are pretty much must haves IMO. There is not a single class that doesn't benefit greatly from those two. The only thing that changes in my builds, is the level I use them at.

    In your replies you can list which endorsements get the most play at each level.

    Winner: TIE: RoF and Armor are both used in all of my builds.

    Broken down by level:

    Gold: Rate of Fire
    Used: 4 times in the gold position

    Silver: Armor
    Used: 4 times in the silver position

    Bronze: Accuracy
    Used: 3 times in the bronze position


    My current custom builds:

    Assault: RoF / Armor / Accuracy
    Sniper: Armor / RoF / Hipclip
    Tank: Armor / Skill Regen / RoF
    Support: RoF / Armor / Skill Regen
    Gunner: RoF / Armor / Accuracy
    Assassin: Armor / Rof / Skill Regen

    Just wondering what is most commonly used in all builds.

    It varies but I find RoF to be the most common. Front end damage is more important for my style of play. Clipsize is better for longer battles but I like to try and end the fight as fast as possible and get the heck out of dodge

    Second is skill

    then armor

    then clipsize

    then accuracy

    Skill regen for me. RoF and armour are both good, but not every custom build I use has them. On the other hand, skill regen on at least bronze is pretty much a constant for me.

    Armor is #1, I use it somewhere in every class at this point. Usually gold or silver.

    RoF is #2, used on 5 classes usually at silver level..

    Custom builds:
    Assault: Armor / RoF / Ammo
    Sniper: Armor / RoF / Ammo (sometimes skill recharge)
    Tank: Speed / Armor / Skill Recharge
    Support: Armor / RoF / Skill Recharge
    Gunner: Armor / RoF / Accuracy
    Assassin: Armor / RoF / Health Regen

    I run RoF on all 5 of my custom classes, usually at Silver.

    Whether plasma gun or blunderbuss, Dr. Trigger cleans it without a fuss!

    Armor is the most common in my builds with RoF second
    I see the same thing with most players I've come across, usually armor/RoF in gold or silver

    This is kinda what i'm trying to determine.

    I think right now

    Armor/Rof are the most useful endorsements by far, with skill regen taking up the 3rd slot.

    IMO the order goes

    1) RoF
    2) Armor
    3) Skill Rege
    4) Accuracy

    Assault with RoF/Accuracy/Clip Size

    I need that RoF gold to kill turrets in a decent amount of predictable time and to spam the grenade launcher, which is actually really spamable.

    I have ROF and armour commonly but i am slowly moving away from armour for most classes.

    Assassins get easier and easier to pick out and countering them with armour isn't needed as much.

    Although armour is great for low hp classes and tank.

    ROF & armour will always be the most popular, because you can never go wrong with more damage and more HP. other endorsements favour certain pros over others, so you wouldn't see them getting as much unanimous support.

    Heh, I'd forgotten what I'd had for my Assault
    Turned out it was gold armor, silver RoF and bronze accuracy

    Quoted for truth.

    It doesn't hurt that those 2 (and skill recharge) are also the most directly powerful endorsements (clipsize is better for longer engagements but the idea is if you kill your target before you'd need to reload anyway then the problem is moot. This of course doesn't apply to things like bot killing and turret killing but that is the logic behind RoF vs Clipsize.)

    However even if all of the endorsements WERE equal in strength you'd still see people use RoF and armor more often than others. However it wouldn't be by quite such a large margin.

    With the advent of how armor and regen work in relation to eachother I've switched from gold regen to gold armor, and brought in silver or bronze regen on my laning tank build with reload in the slot regen isn't. To be honest I much prefer it to my burst damage tank build, which is rof/crit/skill, even though that's almost always better for pro engagements; I'm a whore for popping in and out of cover.

    Gold armor since I'm a sniper...otherwise it's basically free kills for that assassin who likes to facestab.

    Other than that, clip size and RoF. RoF is very useful against Jackbots or large groups of bots to get juice up (level 3 passive ftw).
