[Planetside 2] Cert farming guide ( 300-500 certs per hour)

[Forgeez]

Disclaimer: The following calculations were made with the following remark; that the experience to earn 1 cert point was 500. But this may have changed to 250 xp per cert which effectivly doubles the amount of cert points! Also if you boost experience then you can probably in theory earn like 1000 certs per hour.

The concept is very easy. You have three players where as two of them are of the same faction and the solo player is of another enemy faction. The two teammates both play as medic and the enemy guy play a engineer(for the unlimited ammo)

Here is how the method works. Engineer kills one and the other medic resses him and he kills him again and the medic ress again. When the medics are in squad then they earn 100 xp per ress and the engineer earns about 120 xp per kill.

a ress takes about 3 seconds so you should get around 20 kills per minute and in one hour you earn 240 certs. If you are two active medics then each medics earn only half of the certs in total. If you find someone who can just put a automouse clicker and just automatize his part then both earn about 240 certs per hour.

This will be alot greater for the one shooting though. He will earn gold medal on all his weapons and earn alot of certs just from that. If you got any kind of boost then you will earn RIDICOLOUS amounts of certs. All these calculations were from no boost at all.

This worked until the end of beta, haven't tested it on release yet but i see no reason at all why they would fix this.
If there is a demand then a more concluding discussion will be put up and also a video were we perform this!

Have a nice day everyone

Another farming method (that only benefits one person) Is to get the sunderer ammo resupply perk and park it next to a vehicle of a squad mate and have them fire from any vehicle. (Faster the reload rate the faster the exp, restocking 1 bullet or 40 does not matter).

Alternatively you can have 2 engineers "trade" ammo kits and fire/reload, however isn't as script friendly.

Also on Genudine here (NC) if anyone wants to do method one

Good method i will try this out. I'm gonna automate my method as soon as possible, then you can have 2 people from 2 different factions earning the same amount instead of splitting with the medics.

Sure, message me :3

Genudine here too, PM if anyone wants to do any farming!

[DrakeFish]

Won't they possibly eventually ban you for "exploiting" the mechanics of the game? Or maybe they don't care, I don't know. Anyone has more information about this?

I tried this with my mate and bugged out sometimes where one or both of the people stop gaining exp. What we had to do was kill each other either to reset the bug or to bypass the system they have in place to prevent this method.

Also PM me your server if you want to do some farming

Funny thing my dear elite user, We have grown to close to the wow policies.... In wow this is called clever use of game mechanics and rightly so since you are not really doing anything against the TOS.

BUT here is the funny thing since GW2 launched this way of thinking has changed radically. GW2 permabanned alot of people for doing clever use of game mechanics and i'm pretty sure SOE would too in this case. They are not really able to detect you doing this or would they really care to look into it. Just stay out of the highscore with 11100 kills and 0 deaths then you are fine.
