So… in effect it’s still sorta random “perk point distribution range wise” whichever option you pick?
Therefore maybe checking to see which soldiers natively have higher stat distributions first before upgrading holds increased importance now? 
Nah, the option you pick does not matter. Beside 1 tanker I had that didn’t had enough points for loader perk and seat swap while another did had enough. (I was 1 short) I never encountered problems with perk points on T1units and T2/3 units get a bigger class bonus. Though it depends on the perk build you have in mind.
Thanks for your help.
I will test this at some point either later today or over the weekend and will get to the bottom of it.
The reason I ask is because for instance I want my Tier III assault units at Rank V to have 12% reload and -40% recoil for instance. They would need 22 Firearms perk points. Plus I also want them to have -20% aim down sight speed and +75% medpack usage speed. This requires they be above certain thresholds and I don’t know if this requires I take a careful look at their base stats first or use either left or the right option and if that makes any difference.
All of the above doesn’t make a big difference game play wise but would be nice to have on my assaulters for sure.
22 Firearms is a lot. I do not think that is possible with T1 or T2 assaulters. maybe T3? I will have to check that when I can login later.
Not possible with T2 and under for sure.
T3 I think it might be possible.
I ill check this once I m at home.
I don’t care much about tier 2 or 3 soldiers. The extra stsrting perk is minimal.
Having now the extra cost to upgrade per level, tier 1 soldiers are Prety much all I need at level 5.
I ill check this latter when I m at home. I m enjoying some beers with me wife rn.
Enjoy mate and thanks in advance.

ok so…
froim around 100 soldiers, 19 weapon handling was the max i saw on tier 1 soldiers.
my highest soldier on weapon handling have 21 avaiable. from all campaigns.
maybe, just maybe, tier 3 soldiers will be more worth on some ocasions or perk combinations on the long run.
but the advantages are minimal for me, not worth the time i ill invest doing so.
i ill rank tier 1 and 2 from now on. and disregard tier 3 soldiers. the gains are marginal
btw some premium squad soldiers are at level 20 on weapon handling, no more than that.
where most tier 1 soldiers, go from 15 to 18 average.
so here, tier 2 or 3 might be worth for some of you guys, even to it ill take a litle more grind time to do so.
if you guys arent in a hurry , do it. i wont.
