Brink Abilities: Which do you find fun or useful?

[Moonlight Butterfly]

Hi I have just finished playing through the Resistance Campaign on Brink and I'm pondering what to use my points in. I haven't used most of them yet becuase I have ''talent point paralysis'' as usual... Any ideas of what's fun to pick. I think I might lean towards a medic in multiplayer although I'm tempted by the operative too :3

I have chosen the supply and health ones to start as they seem basic and useful. What have you guys gone for?

Being a new player, I'm mostly distributing points evenly, but it's absolutely worth putting points into the Engineer's turret ability, whether you play him or not. Turrets are vital in holding off those pesky enemies from the thing you're trying to protect. But if you wanna roll Operative, the sticky grenades-

Are the bomb.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

I'm still not sure whether or not to pick this up yet =/

The medic has some abilities that increase his supply meter by several pips.

Those are handy. Get them. Each pip represents one more heal or revive you can do.

Also, there is a unversal ability (affects all classes) that increases the speed that your supply meter recharges. Get that too.

I've been filling the engineer class mainly. I love the turrets and the mines so I've been going with that. Also the ability to buff your own and team mates weapon damage is quite good.

Like I said I'm playing through the campaigns atm and it's great fun. I can imagine it's going to be even better with friends and online The environments are gorgeous and the characters look great.

On the downside it has been having a few troubles with bugs and the server has gone down a couple of times so you might want to wait until that gets straightened out.

You know what's not useful? The engineer's medium turret. That thing literally would not fire at anything, even when it was pointed right at an enemy. And it would die ridiculously quickly.

Hell, the light turret was infinitely more useful than that POS.
