Choose the class that is the most fun for you. Both classes should give you good numbers with not too much effort which will give you the chance to learn the maps and strategies. After you get good with either of those two, then you might want to switch to something more challenging.... probably not though b/c who wants to play a game and just get rolled b/c you really wanted to be a commando/merc?

Really good stuff man! I'm sure that you are only moments away from being blasted for whatever some random troll will find offensive about this, but I am very interested in the stats for pvp. So thank you and I'll be curious to find out how it continues to trend. Might just have to start keeping track of this stuff myself.

Couldn't agree more! It's so annoying. How else can you ensure that your are maximizing your DPS if you aren't hitting your abilities even during cooldown? And everytime you do that you get all these messages that block the action. 100% agree.
