Is it possible in any way to implement a system where instead of choosing 1 out of three give perks, you can choose any perks that you have revealed so far?
For example, a Specialist chooses Combat Protocol as the first perk. Under this new system, on second level up, the Specialist could pick any of the three, Corporal perks, OR, either of the two Lance Corporal perks not chosen. Each new level, three new options would be available, and be added to the "pool".
The idea here is to remove the issues when deciding what perks to have against what others perks. Perks would only have to be arranged in order of power, so that at MSgt, the three strongest perks are available. This way, any solider could only ever have one MSgt perk, or at most two GSgt perks.
Thoughts?
Pick Any Perk - Instead of 1 of 3?

Might be interesting as a mod. For the stock LW though would be a nightmare to balance as the permutations would be huge.

While not perfectly suited to your needs, there's currently mod options for picking either 2 of 3 or all 3 perks per level. https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/765 ... pid=268500 for the author's workshop, both are listed there.
I, too, would otherwise be interested in a mod that gives you the ability to choose a second perk at a previous level in lieu of the stronger option at your new rank. Sometimes you just really want that other Sergeant perk that'd make your character perfect in lieu of a Staff Sergeant one.

I cry everytime I have to choose between Combat Protocol and Medical Protocol.

Yea, but now I will cry about having to choose between Revival and Combat.

Revival is the only one that is not replaceable by any other ability. Combat is just dmg, anyone can do that.Doctor Sticks wrote:Yea, but now I will cry about having to choose between Revival and Combat.

I suspect that i will be modifying the perk trees regardless, after the 1.3 patch hits. I still like the idea of Lethal on Rangers, more so than rupture. Combat Fitness also never struck me as a Master level perk, when compared to things like Sweeper, Serial, AMF, etc.... so I will probably move that down.
Among other ideas i have, is giving SMG to snipers as an option, and making some AWC perks, like sprinter, perhaps available to a class like Assault.
