Some things are too epic even for Brink.

Like pushing a cow out of a helicopter at 3500 in the air? (It's illegal in Alaska but no other state. )

Wow, how did I miss this goldmine?

Also, first post as Otter!

Calm down NullChampion. I'll call you by both names just for the heck of it ^_^. Anyway, we get 3 agressive abilities (class specific) right? Like 3 medic specific abilities at a time? Because life buff lvl 3, Laz nade, and self revive would take all mine and I would miss out on the quicker ability recharge. :sadvaultboy: I wish it were 4 abilities......

Is that even possible???

Nvm. If Wraith said it, if MUST be possible!

:bowdown: before Wraith and you shall be rewarded with info beyond your wildest dreams.........it's only about BRINK.

Exedore or Badman on the Splash forums said that the 24-hour testing period is out. If you get a skill and no longer want to use it, you have to go down a level to get the skill point back. I'll post a link when I find it again.

Edit: Found the source.

It's post number 15. For those who don't wanna take the link, Exedore states

"Credits for abilities are one per level, and there is no trial period. Abilities can be completely reset for the hefty price of subtracting one whole level."

I understood it to be 3 active abilities and unlimited passive abilities. Not sure which ones are which here though... :spotted owl:

Whoa. I guess that was changed so that you would need to research what ability would fit your playing style best, and so that you wouldn't abuse the system if you didn't like it.

What does he mean by "abilities can be completely reset"? Do you just get back all of your skill points then?

no trial period for abilities seems everything they said is getting cut last minute

no xp tranfers either eh as long as we get it may i can careless

That's what it sounds like, not too sure though.

The old system would have been abused. Once you get an ability point, you could just keep testing out the abilities that interest you, and once you find the ones that fit your playstyle the best, you would never desire to use any of the other abilities that SD had worked so hard on. They want you to experiment and not stay in your comfort zone.

id like to point out the rest of my post were i said it was ok....more often then not i will drop a level if i picked something not my style could care less about a level want something that is fun

The next ability you take might help you level up faster.

eh levels are just numbers i could stay lvl 5 and still be happy playing brink

Yea, but levels gain you new stuff and ability points. True they are numbers, but not just numbers.

It was a older thread that I thought deserved more love.



Donations greatly appreciated :goodjob:



You can have x amount of passive based on your level.

Hm, if there are truly only 10 abilities per class (and universal), and these pictures are accurate, then it would appear that there is no "level 3" of anything, but only level 2 for a select few abilities.

Only time will tell. Could have sworn I head the devs say something about level 3 abilities.
