Just picked up the game the other day and tryin to decide on which path i want to take as my first char. I've narrowed it down to engineer,exobiologist and demolitionist. Any thoughts on capabvilities of each, fun to play etc... is appreciated. thank you

I have an exobiologist.

Injector gun is great, clone is amazing. I have 5 ranks in lightning but only cast it at 3 as 5 uses too much power. However my clone happily casts rank 5 lightning.

The other skill I really like is decay. It will go through shields and does reasonable damage to critters that arent immune.

Engineer can be a challenge too with turret deployment and shields.Shiled drones etc...

I prefer guardian for the melee side but that's just me.

Have fun playing the pet classes with terrible AI and no pet controls. I have a 50 Guardian and Demo (which were fun), but I cancelled a long, long time ago.

Remember the clone system is one of the better features in my mind. You can be all three without having to level each from scratch.
