List of Contents
Soldiers are experienced in combat, so skills that improve damage such as (Ballistics and Lasers) and weapon types (Pistol Certification and Rifle Certification) should go well with this background. Boost Pack Training is also a good skill to supplement these Combat Skills so you can get around easily.
With the combat prowess you've developed over the years, Rapid Reloading, Armor Penetration, and Intimidation also synergize with the soldier concept. Demolitions is also another great skill since you're adept at different weapons of war, including explosives.
Skills that boost your overall stats, such as Wellness and Fitness, are a good fit for a Soldier while Medicine and Pain Tolerance can be learned for survivability. Weight Lifting should also be useful, especially if you'll be fully armed. Then, acquire Weapon Engineering to be able to modify each weapon you have.

Best Weapons: Weapon Tier List
It's best to wear heavy armor if you'll be seeing combat often. You'll want to cover for all types of damage to keep you protected.
 Alien DNA |
You volunteered for a controversial experiment that combines alien and human DNA. As a result, you start with increased health and oxygen, but healing and food items aren't as effective. |
|---|---|
 Extrovert |
You're a people person. Exerting yourself uses less oxygen when adventuring with human companions. but more when adventuring alone. (Can't be combined with Introvert.) |
 Hero Worshipped |
You've earned the attention of an annoying "Adoring Fan" who will show up randomly and jabber at you incessantly. On the plus side, he'll join your ship's crew and give you gifts... |
Alien DNA can help in combat by increasing health and oxygen at the cost of weaker healing. Extrovert is also great for reducing oxygen use when you're with human companions. Hero Worshipped can give you the Adoring Fan as a crew member, although you'll need to put up with him.
| Starting Skills | Description |
|---|---|
 Ballistics |
Centuries of conflict have proven that when it comes to threat elimination, few things stack up to the reliable power of high-speed projectiles. |
 Boost Pack Training |
Specialized training and innovations in personal mobility systems have allowed for unfettered exploration on alien worlds. |
 Fitness |
In space, the greatest commodity is oxygen, and the increased lung capacity gained by a regular physical fitness regimen is essential to survival. |
