Actually pulling off successful flanks with C4 to disrupt an armor column, or even dropping from a valkyrie or ESF and floating down with drifters. Or using ambushers to fly into a room with a shotgun and start gunning people down. It's fun and rewarding because it's high risk, high reward.
Infiltrator is low risk high reward. You sit in an area, cloak, wait until someone appears or stops moving, uncloak, headshot them, and recloak. It's the most braindead dopamine-farming gameplay ever.
Medic is just "spam revive or throw grenades until you run out" gameplay.
Engineer is "camp mana turrets or tie yourself to a vehicle/max until an infil 1-shots you because you stopped to scratch your nutsack for 0.5 seconds"
Max is the "an infiltrator/sweatheavy killed me" ragepull class, or when you are getting farmed at a chokepoint.
Heavy is the ego stroking class that all the sweats play because it's the most minmaxed for straight up man fighting. Assimilate, Adrenaline Shield, Survivalist, Response Jacket, or Athlete. Spam medkits after every engagement, use the most meta weapon or if you're a real sweat, an SMG, and watch your K/D go up along with your ego.
Light assault is the most fun, highest skill-ceiling, and most impactful class in the game if you know how to play them.
