I heard they were going to nerf poision damage. Anyone know if its true.

My next question is on average how much does a 4th tier poision do?

1.) yes, it's true. if you do a search on google, you will probably find the quote were Mrs. Rice talks about them nerfing poisons because they can not find any WMD in Iraq

2.) 4th tier poisons don't deal damage. their effect is to cancel the E-type Doc buffs.

im serious i heard there is a nerf coming. and htey must do some damage liie how much per tick on average.

1) Just a rumor. Lots of folks like to talk about this, but there is no substantiation to it. No dev has ever mentioned this happening and I read everything the post if I can. The only thing we do know is they have mentoned looking into making deseases more useful somehow.

2) Not certain. Depends on resources and components used, anyway. Haven't used one in a while because I've mostly been doing PvE and my group doesn't want me to use them except in the direst of circumstances because the the loot/harvest problems and the possibility that if my damage does more damage than their weapons fire they may not get any XP. I think it would be safe to say around 200 per tick, probably a bit more. Maybe even 3-400 per tick wtih advanced components and good resources and depending on how you experiment them.

They're not going to nerf poison damage. If anything they'll make it more powerful.

Zarlor, the second you give me an E-Type buff, i'll hand you a D Poison.

I'll take both!

uhhh i could be wrong here but C-type poisions and Dieases is all I got at Master Combat medic? did i not get the D schematics?

we have a winner..

Probally cant craft Cs cause your not standing next a personal crafter, or a droid with a crafting chip.

Also I hope there is no nerf cuz ppl can incap me, burn me, mind shot me, and knock me down, and Im not calling for a nerf. We all have a certain thing we can do each other in professions why nerf. Not like I can kill some in 3-4 shots. If you dont like how some class can do something either join it, or just play and shut up and have fun. Im sick of the whining about CM ..Its not like we are so Uber. Besides I think it good pay back to all those ppl that dont tip medical ppl and then need medical attn when they are disease or posioned ..

I've been hit with poison several times. Altough very annoying, it is pretty much the only good defense a CM has besides traveling in a group of 10+ ppl all the time. I think the poison was applied by a master CM but i'm not sure as the person had no skill title under their name, but the damage was usually about 350-400+ dmg per tick... which means you're pretty much dead anyway, doesn't matter if someone walks by and DB's you or not, cuz if no one DB's you, you'll eventually get hit by the 3 incap rule and be dead before you hit the ground. Either way you're dead, unless you have a doctor or a combat medic on your side that can cure disease.

Just think about poison as the primary weapon of Combat Medic.
Why someone would like to nerf our primary weapon?

Wookiee Master Combat Medic/Rifleman

He didn't say D poisons, he said 4th tier, as in the poisons you get at Crafting 4. Actually I think he MEANT top-level, effectively C pack, poisons and you guys know it. Why give the guy a hard time over it?
