Edit: This is the update with new abilities added and better layout.

It's nice to see a better version of the list. Thanks for the update Wraith

No problem.

So after all the research we know most the the supposed 58 abilities in Brink.

We are missing:

Rank 3 universal, no idea what this is

Rank 2 Engineer, A couple of gears, faster build times maybe

Rank 4 Engineer, its likely you can lay more mines

Rank 2 Medic: 2 of these

Rank 3 Medic:

Rank 2 Operative: could possibly be the homing beacon

Rank 2 Soldier: could possibly be a quicker cooldown on grenades

Rank 3 Soldier: both unsure likely kevlar armor and incendiary ammo. We don't know how this armor ability differs from the Engineers,

Rank 4 Soldier: 2 more unsure but could be increased explosive damage and radius

So we are unsure of 13 of the 58 abilities. Hopefully SD will continue to reveal them on facebook.

Yeah, it is most likely faster repair/build in one ability.
And to be honest, I think the rest should stay secret. I like finding stuff out on my own later on in the game.
I'm waiting for the community Q&A to come out. Theres a lot of good questions to be answered.

Is the Q&A going to be on facebook?

Could be starting with additional reserve magazines, like Bandolier in Call of Duty 4 or the ammo perk in Bad Company 2.

Second guess would be shorter cooldown on grenades.

I was hoping for a quicker regen on supply pips.

It's a possibility, but having two supply-centric universal abilities just seems like a bit much. The gap between those using them and those not using them would probably be too large.

Well not really since one is low ranked and the other is mid ranked.

Great stuff, did they release a new ability for today at all?

Sorry I took a bit to answer this but, yes. Its already on facebook I think. Just waiting until they decide to release answers.

Ha even after 3 weeks your posts keep coming to the top Wraith

Well my posts generally are insightful and informative. Unlike some just sayin. :wink_smile:

People keep asking about abilities.

I would wager Splash Damage are including the default class abilities (like molotov grenades for assault) in their total count. In the Ready and Able video there are 52 abilities in total, including default class abilities. From your list we don't know what all 52 abilities do; additionally, there are hopefully at least six more abilities than those included in the video.

Yea each class has a basic kit. I used all known info to compile this list. I want to know the rest.

Was hoping for even MORE grenade related abilities for soldier, but I guess unlimited grenade spam will forever be just another dream. *sigh*

Me too! Personally I am hoping there are additional Universal abilities. We must choose four before we can begin choosing class-specific abilities, and I am not particularly impressed with more than two-to-three of them.

Especially since there are 2-3 that everyone should get.

And those that everyone WILL get, unless they are complete fools who would deny themselves cheap and effective advantages.

(By this, I mean Battle Hardened and Supply Max Increase.)

Yes really should be the first two abilities anyone gets. Still begs the question if you can save those points.

Certainly will be those veterans who will seek to play successful without "being handheld" as Richard Ham puts it. For the challenge of it.
