PlanetSide 2 – Understanding the Cert Points System

planetside-2

How do Certification points work in PlanetSide 2?

Do you get some:

  • over time?
  • by getting kills?
  • by completing objectives?

If so, how many do you get for each of the above?

Best Answer

You gain 1 Certification Point every 250 XP.

XP is gained by

  • Killing enemies
  • Capturing bases
  • Repairing vehicles, MAX units or turrets,
  • Healing or reviving allies,
  • Hacking terminals (Infiltrator),
  • Resupplying allies (Engineer or Sunderer with Ammo Dispenser)

You also get 12 Certification Points per day by just logging in.

If you want to gain experience (and thus Certification Points) at a faster rate you can buy a membership or one of the short term experience boosts (or both at once, even better) with Station Cash (bought with real money).
