I would say use a tactical for a while hang back follow a group as much as you can. Help yourself get to know what is going around and how combat flows. you'll have decent range with a bolter and being a Tac you can use a lot of different weapons to get more of an idea of how the game flows.
Honestly, I'd play a healer. Apo is my favorite, but maybe a sorc or warlock. You can hang back, heal, shoot crap, and just generally sit back and watch how others play the game. An apo is especially good when you get the healing beacon. Throw that down near a capture point, hang back, shoot crap and supplement with heals as needed. You'll learn a lot and get some exp.
Well I've had SOME success with a Heavy Bolter. But that turns this game into a turret section and less of a game. Everything else... terrible. TTK is too fast. No time to react, you simply just die. Even if you can react by being hit with non-heavy-weapons and not being meleed (a very rare case indeed) you're dead until your character turned around. If unresponsiveness is part of the game design, some game designers should be purged. I log in, play a couple minutes, get frustrated and quit the game. SO many issues on every front. The only thing this game has going for it is the 40k license. Performance. Graphics (did you ever sight down on a heavy bolter? Emperor save us...). Balance. Core gameplay loop. Nothing good to say about this game. I think I've seen 3 positive reviews in Steam since it's release.
