I'm a static namer, played every role at least once, used to main squad engie but I'm a standard for life nowadays, and I'm mostly robust in terms of engineering and defense, I do average in combat if I live long enough to see it.

I cant live without the spec role, iv only played as a sniper and grendier a couple times so id like to play the other classes.

I normally main spec and smart gunner, with Medic and staff officer on the side.
I've also played doctor and researcher a bit too.

Ive never played RO or CMO or CE

Spec high, SL medium. The first because spec is fucking lit, the second so I don't need to suffer under SSGT Baldy's thumb for a few hours. If I really want to get into some Delta action, I'll high roll SG and settle for PFC. If I don't make my roll, I always check the manifest and examine who's in Delta, that's how I judge whether a round is worth playing.

As for Benos, Hunter. I just play Hunter, all the time. Only way to get robust, gotta put in a shit ton of reps.

What occupation do you always gun for/can't live without when playing as a Marine?
I don't really have a favorite or a main, but Smartgunner's really nice and I usually have that set to high in my preferences. One of my biggest problems as a squad marine is the inability to shoot over other marines, so being able to shoot Xenos from almost any position at any time without fear of friendly fire makes me pretty damn happy.
What other occupations do you enjoy playing besides your "main"?
If I'm not playing Squad Smartgunner I'm usually a Squad Marine and infrequently a Squad Leader, but lately I've been playing Squad Medic regularly to try it out.
Which occupation are you the most R O B U S T at?
Probably Smartgunner.
What occupation do you wanna try but are too pussy to? (Squad leader? Specialist? Staff Officer? Executive Officer?)
Nothing, really. I'm tempted to try out Engineer just so I know how it works and so I can try my hand at making a decent FOB/frontline barricades, but it seems like a boring role. I've been putting it off.
What common occupations have you NEVER PLAYED?
Engineer, Specialist, CT, Doctor, PO, and MP. I haven't tried out any role outside of the ones you'd find in the four marine squads, aside from one time I went Xeno because I observed the round for half a second then realized I couldn't exit and play as marine.
Do you have characters specific to whatever job you intend/play the most?
Nope! Chance Warden's my go-to for all roles, but I've been considering making another character.

I queue and breathe for that specialist loadout, but with the amount of people fighting for it I have my fallback option engineer. I'm a solid man on engineer. I do my job and since I'm a dirty delta man, I luckily avoid the dreadful FOB duty.

I go SO and XO one my second character from time to time, when I'm feeling less robust or join late in the round.
I have a few whitelists and a few characters...

- What occupation do you always gun for/can't live without when playing as a Marine?

Squad Medic all the way, Staff Officer as well. Medic when I want to be involved, Staff if I want to just sit back and RP with my squad.

- What other occupations do you enjoy playing besides your "main"?

Gave Squad Leader a try recently and had lots of fun, had a good squad so will be trying that more. Also Grunt for just faffing about and shooting things.

- Which occupation are you the most R O B U S T at?

I’d say I’m a decent medic and a good staff officer but I wouldn’t call myself robust just yet.

- What occupation do you wanna try but are too pussy to? (Squad leader? Specialist? Staff Officer? Executive Officer?)

Doctor and Executive Officer. One day I’ll jump on them.

- What common occupations have you NEVER PLAYED?

RO, CMP, CE. Basically the ‘in charge of a department’ jobs. As well as all medical roles (except medic obviously).

- Do you have characters specific to whatever job you intend/play the most?

Just my usual static. Might make an ‘older’ version if I ever play as Executive Officer.
I play Verimonia Reyada, Squad Medic.

- What occupation do you always gun for/can't live without when playing as a Marine?
SQUAD MEDIC

- What other occupations do you enjoy playing besides your "main"?
I like to just be a PFC to rambo off to god knows where and die with a shotgun. Otherwise, I usually like to chill with something like CT/MT/PO. Or, if I know my squad will get FOB or Tcomms (Ice or Prison Tcomms, mind you), be an Engi and just build autism fort. I like autism forts.

- Which occupation are you the most R O B U S T at?
DOKTA . I can mix a lot of stuff very quickly, which makes medbay and medics happy. Also I'm used to dual surgery, which makes patients happy.

- What occupation do you wanna try but are too pussy to? (Squad leader? Specialist? Staff Officer? Executive Officer?)
Definitely SL and XO. SG and Spec for me are basically pew pew roles, and I'd rather someone else have it though I won't be completely bald at it

*- What common occupations have you NEVER PLAYED?
I've played most of the common stuff, but I'll have to say that I never play stuff like CMO/CE/XO. I'm too afraid of the possibility. I just want to chill.

*- Do you have characters specific to whatever job you intend/play the most?
Nope. Bex Jackson is anything and everything the round needs, besides Command

If it's something about staying behind and guaranteed max accuracy from afar looking for a high value target to shoot at. I'd main that.

I do like dabbling in the SL role, it is a lot of fun when I have the time to play.
Realistically, squad marine. Because everyone needs a redshirt to die like a champ.

You can give a smartgun to every marine, and they would still find a way to FF with it.

I don't really have a main, but if I had to choose my first (Really second, I'm hunter main REE) it would be CE and/or SL. I like the adrenaline when you are screaming in the radio FALL BACK.

I'm probably most robust at MT. I usually (always) make bunkers, steal dat booze, and put down bolt signaler.

I've tried every none listed role, but for Xeno, I have only got once. I have no clue how do do it, and the one time I did HAVE to go Queen, I got oofed bad.

I have 2 characters, one for brains/wrench (Monday 'Scatter' Williams), and when I want to go to the ground, I choose Ava 'Young' Williams, which I have as the medic/gun.
I play as Monday "Scatter" Williams, he is the guy that takes no one seriously, except his good friend, his work.

- What occupation do you always gun for/can't live without when playing as a Marine?
I usually try to gun for Spec or Smartgunner, but most of the time I end up as MP or medical, which I enjoy quite alot actually and I ended up maining them.

- What other occupations do you enjoy playing besides your "main"?
Outside of my mains I enjoy command positions like SO,PO and XO, but I do need to improve as XO, ALOT, so I dont really play it often compared to other command positions.

- Which occupation are you the most R O B U S T at?
I would say Doctor.

- What occupation do you wanna try but are too pussy to? (Squad leader? Specialist? Staff Officer? Executive Officer?)
Corporate Liason, I dont really know why im scared of it, but I am, for some reason.

I am EVERYWHERE. I usually play Xenos, but if I play marine, it is usually either CMP, SL, MP, XO/SO, CE, or smart/spec. It is kind of hard to choose and actual favortite.

- MT.

- MP, CE, and Marine.

- I are robust Hivelord, Drone being a close second.

- Command positions that work in the CIC. Ultimate nope on my end. Also, being the queen sucks. I will gladly pussy outta that. CMO, CMP, and CE don't count on the pussy-out list. Also, Medical Researcher is omega gay to the power of eight googols. Beware of Medical Researcher.

I main CIC roles, SO and more recently XO, although I'm working on tightening my competency on the latter. I also enjoy playing MT and CL if I want a slower paced round, although CL is generally in high demand. Finally, when I do play on the ground, I like playing standard marine, it's just not as stressful as the NCOs. Probably a little boring, but I have the most fun playing that way.
