    Well in conquest you should always travel in groups. Strength in numbers.

    Always travel in numbers. I've seen enemies rack up enormous kill amounts in practically indestructible squadrons.
    Also, if two Scientists team up, you can totally own by repairing each other.
    AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF DASH! I've gotten out of so many death sentences with it.

    When playing as a destroyer always be a step ahead of your oponent and i'd also suggest to use the rocket launcher as your primary and riot cannon as secondary

    For the Scientist, two things:

    - Hit and Run. If you encounter an enemy and your shields go down enough to lose a quarter of your health, book it and grab an energon cube. Yeah, you'll lose a chance at a 50EXP kill, but you'll get 15 to 25 at least for the kill assist.

    - ALWAYS keep an eye out for teammates with low health if you're using the heal beam. You get 20EXP if you heal someone enough, so use that to get some extra experience and to help your team out.

    Titan:

    - Get on the front lines, that's what he's made for. On top of that, practice getting used to the Energon Harvester. It's way more useful in close combat then the scrapmaker is and is the best partner to the Titan. Plus each kill gets you some health.

    Destroyer:

    - Right now due to his weapons layout, he has nothing that can be considered a precision weapon. Use your vehicle weapons as a substitute. It's great for taking out running infiltrators or finishing of damaged enemies.

    Also, keep in mind that you can stop your abilities at any time after using them. Not sure about the Destroyer, but from what I've seen the Infiltrator's cloaking, Titan's whirlwind and Scientist's healing beam can be stopped by pressing the right bumper at any time after activating it. This can probably lead to more strategic moves, like healing multiple teammates at once or causing some damage with whirlwind and then stopping at the last second to finish them off with a different weapon.

    So true about the scientist. I rarely get kills and get mostly assist DIT to my low health and me having to retreat.

    Yes please heal teammates if you are a scientist. Too many time I was caping a point with a scientist with low heath, and just flew off after the point was capped.

    If I'm a scout and I see the other team quickly capturing point A or B I usually drive up and blast the group a bit with my vehicle machine guns through the doorway, then pick them off with the Energon Pistol. I was able to kill 3 or 4 people using this tactic, one time. Dashing behind the column then cloaking is a good way to confuse them if they try to approach. Then you can pick them off with the shotty. :)

    I am scientist, everytime I see someone in need I chase them to heal them, but they run away from me to find a health cube. So the only time I heal my teammates is when they are in battle.

    That happens to me too, but usually people stop if I get my heal beam on them.

    Why do you have to be Megatron? So you feel more badass?

    You are not badass unless you look like Megatron.

    with a scientist i open with a blast from the orbital pistol then switch out to the neutron AR and rip 'em apart, transform and fly away to find a new target. also if your not shooting someone don't stay on the ground too long. always quick shift forms if i you see a missle lock on you. i always chase other jets too just cause it's fun trying to out maneuver them and land a rocket kill... but that's just me. ;P
