Thread: So, we think of the idea but yet the Doctors get it?
I realy don't mind the Docs getting this one instead of the CMs. Docs at the moment are more buff bots than anything else in combat. It will get them more involved. Anyway people on fire should run back to the campt that the doc is in and get the fire removed. and their health healed.

Rez's, cures, powerful stims, state cures...they are FAR more then buff bots... I'm temped to just say we are suicide bombers atm, we have no real healing use if there are any dedicated docs around.
Honestly, I don't have a problem with doctor's getting it, after all they gave us mind heal.
OK well I know what you are going to say, and that is that mind heal is not that great of a benefit, and I would agree with you, however I think if you went to ask the doctor's if they thought they should have it to, you would find a majority that would like to have the skill as well.
Guys there has to bea use for all professions. We all harp on balance and counter balance. If the doctor is to be the ones that get this, then fine let them have this one.
I'm sorry but I tend to disagree with the mind heal. I keep groups alive for long periods of time with mind heal. Specially if I'm buffed. With the new Chef changes, all it takes is proper planning and timing and I can make a big difference in PVP or PVE. However, I do think that we should get water bombs! Just my 2 cents.

Read this and felt sorry for the commando's. Hope they get some of their other weapons fixed soon.

It belongs with doc. They have all the other state cures, so they should have this one as well. I would agree with those that say doc is already better than CM (particular when you consider the 29 skill point difference). However, I think it is important that we maintain theline of separationbetween the professions (range, area, offense vs. state cures, wound heals, buffs, revive).
My main problem is the following. There are a total of 13 types of "combat damage". By combat damage I refer to damage, states, effects incurred IN COMBAT. Doctors can heal 12 of these while CMs can only heal 5. Yet we are supposed to be the better combat healers? Absolutely ridiculous.Doctors are overall the better "combat healers".
Doctor - Health Damage, Action Damage, Intimdated, Stunned, Dizzy, Blind, Bleeds, Poison, Disease, Wounds, Death, and now Fire
CM - Health Damage, Action Damage, Mind Damage, Bleeds, and Wounds

Amen to that. We have been Suicide bombers for a looooooooooooooong time. It was one of the major reasons that my Master Combat Medic is no longer my main character. I did not want to leave the profession so I started a different server. I went back and played him when I found out that we could craft with a range over 64m but then again they nerfed that too.
And ooo big deal we get Poisons, The people bragging about this have NO CLUE what the new Chef foods can do. I have a friend that is a Master Chef. Breath of Heaven, BE enhanced is over 1k to Str, Quick, Focus. So whoever is posioned CAN STILL span specials without worry. ALSO, there is another drink that can boost CON to the point where my strongest Health posion with a effect of 250 does nothing to him. It will tick for -250 then before the next tick he is back at full. And this is even after him squeezing off a few rounds of specials.
A CM needs to be built for PvP. We HAVE to be. Mostly because with the changes to PvE well we suck now. A CM has always been about PvP imo. And before we only had to worry about Spices and Doctor buffs. Now we have to worry about Foods as well. I saw a TKA walking around with 6k Health last night. Doctor buff, spice, Chef Food, Power Boost. I don't think it should take a group of people to take out 1 TKA, Especialy because he admitted he was only 2/0/0/0 TKA.
The biggest complaint is not that a Doctor is better then a Combat Medic. It the fact that I had to spend 29 EXTRA skill points to say that.
I wasn't going to answer this one because someone else already commented on the Docs being MUCH more then Buff Bots. But there was something else you said that made me fall off my chair laughing at you.

Hey Rchuno, Go run to the Hospital and have then put that fire out and take care of your wounds. Don't STOP, DROP, and ROLL. No, that would make sense. Go Run to the Hospital.
