Best Starting Faction for A new player

[Element-118]

Just reached level 10 And i have to make the choice,it would be great if i could get a description about each faction

There is no "best" faction. Its up to you and what playstyle you like. Lunatics are fast but they have not so good armor.They have hard hitting weapons for short range (shotguns, spears), unguided rockets for mid and longrange but they are fragile and can be shot down pretty easy.
Nomads are in the middle with their speed and armor statistics. They have different machineguns wich are good at most ranges and are a bit more robust in comparison to the lunatic weapons and do alot damage over time. In addition you have flying drones and good weapon cooler. Scavengers have strong armor and are slow. Their weapons are slow firing, hard hitting and can take alot of shots themself. The weapons are cannons and turrets.
You can alwaya change your faction later once a day so dont worry to much about your decision now.

If you want decent armor and low weight go this way Lunatics lv 5 -> Nomads lv 4 -> scavengers lv 10 -> steppenwolf lv 9 -> lunatics lv 10 then its up to you but in this way you get the best parts really fast and also lightweight frames

EDIT: And for start dont build first few things by yourself sell material and get two fuel barrels (Fuel Barrel common and Fuel Tank Rare ) this will give you 15 fuel per win

The best hint i could give you is try them all untill you reach lvl 5 in each of those.
This way, you will get a good base for structural parts and you will see what gives each faction. Then you choose which one you prefer !

You should join any for first day. jump to another after 24 hours, same again for the last one. Now you will be at level 1 on all of them and all will give you some building parts. The rest as others said.... good luck!!

factions only matter if you are not planing to invest money and planning to craft, from here its a matter of choise of the specific weapons.

Not totally true. Every players will level-up on all factions. It unlock building parts. Enable players to craft. No matter players pay real money in or not. Building parts can't be bought.

Have look at their website.

Description about each faction: (this is quite from personal preference but I think it could give you a general idea)

Engineers: We all have to start somewhere don't we? There is the case here, for starters you can get some decent stuff from them until you reach higher levels with other factions "jack of all trades master of none" I would say

Lunatics: Well... Pretty self explanatory, if you like going like a kamikaze with fast, light, low durable builds BUT with a ♥♥♥♥ ton of damage potential this is for you

Nomads: A bit more tactical, and focused for more medium to long range with their machine guns and autocannons (My fav faction <3) some weapons can take a bit to get used to, but they are really worth it

Scavengers: Basically, the tank faction, heavy armor, tracks, and cannons, meant for more slow, durable builds that can take a lot of damage

From this on the other are kinda the same, but upgraded in some way

Nomads upgrade - Dawn Children (second fav faction <3): If you enjoy making players salty, this is your faction :P and it's great for more futuristic builds, with energy weapons that require some skill, they can do a lot of damage, but synthesis quasar and prometheus ( I know it's not in the faction but come on.. We all know where that thing belongs :P) have travel time which you will have to control at longer ranges

Scavengers upgrade - Steppenwolves: Military themed faction, kinda like Scavengers, their theme revovles around heavier builds, kinda lacking of parts atm tho :/ but the Mech legs and the TOW are really fun to use

Lunatics upgrade - Firestarters: If hell doesn't come to you, you bring hell to them, fire, speed and explosions is a sum up of this guys
