Hi There While waiting for my pre-order invitation i'm investigating the vanguard trees more closely to find something fitting. After some 31+ tree-Builds i also tried some hybrid builds, and found the assault tree pretty bad for it. The reason is, that you can't go above the second tree level without need to spend point in a talent that supports Plasma Cell. This means that if I do not want to use plasma cell, I need to waste points to get higher in this tree. I then checked how far I can get in each tree without speccing for their main Cell (if it make sense is another question though...) Shield: 32 Points can be spent without need to spec Ion Cell 3 Talents to improve Ion Cell Tactics: 33 Points can be spent without need to spec High Energy Cell 2 Talents to improve High Energy Cell Assault: 7 Points can be spent without need to spec Plasma Cell 4 Talents to improve Plasma Cell This is clearly a discrepancy between the specs, which makes hybrid specs using Assault as 2nd tree wasting points since 3 of the 4 talents for Plasma are placed on the first two levels of the three. Did anyone else noted this? Or does noone get higher in assault tree (if not as primary spec) than 7 points?
