New player seeking class advice

[Honelith]

Hello all,

Just obtained a 10day free trial, and decided to buy Neocron 2.0 retail off ebay for £3, so I decided to play around until it arrives.
Ok, I'm wondering what class would suit my style of play. I like the idea of running around guns all blazing, but, I would also like to be agile, and have medium/long range capabilities, while being able to hold my own hide in most combat situations. I'm currently reading through the manual, trying to make sense of all the classes, and I can't seem to decide which class I should choose first.

Any help/suggestions would be a thanks,

and thanks. :)

spies can hide well and have excellent range ...they cant take much damage though

Gen-Tanks can take a shitload of damage and use all weapons...but are usually pretty slow(at least when they have guns out)

Monks dont use guns at all

PE's are nice well rounded characters that can do a bit of everything...but cant do any 1 thing great.

your speed is controlled by how many points you invest in it so the class wont determine that

I would reccommend a PE as you can do a bit of everything and decide what you like

Thanks for the help, joran420.

Decided to go PE/Soldier. :)

just keep in mind its not permanent so if you realize you messed up later just delete and restart(or you cann take loss of memory points to undo skill ups....but its pretty time consuming and borring) just use this char to get a grasp on the game

the websites in the stickies (particularly the nc.synxry.com one ) are really helpfull and have all your stat caps listed as well as guides

PE is a good char to start with can experiment with most weapons decide what you like the specialise.

i.e.
Spy - Pistol/Rifle
Gentank - Melee/Heavy
