Ok Ive got a couple of point regarding PVP and combat medics. Master combat medic and master rifleman is pretty much the uber template for PVP right now. Whenever we have done any PVP on Infinity server the winner of the events usually boils down to who has the most combat medics.

Im just wondering, do combat medics want to see everyone who PVPs to become combat medics? As in effect your pretty much worthless in PVP unless your combat medic/rifleman. Those mind ticks are massive and eat through your mind which you cannot stim heal. Add to the master head shot and your dead in no time.

So Star Wars Galaxies will basically become Combat Medic Galaxies (and may I add that Combat Medic is not a very 'star warsy' profession, name one combat medic in any of the films? lol). And even throughout history of real wars when has a combat medic been the most offensive persons on the battlefield? Never.... so why are they here?

Getting back onto topic, do you guys really think you should be able to throw poisons/diseases for 96m and through walls? Also if they do give CMs a 75% reduction you will still be doing 150-200 damage in PVP, which is still pretty decent and in line with other combat professions....

So do you think combat medic should be the uber profession for PVP, and if you do think that, would you be happy to see PVP pretty much everyone as CM/RM? Or do you think thats really not SWG pvp should be like?

Sounds like you guys need doctors.

Rifleman/CM verse Fencer/Doctor is a good fight. Same with Rifleman/Doctor.

Right now PVP is ruled by Rifleman, CM, Doctor and Fencer. No reason for any other profession.

Can you name a single Chef from the Star Wars movies? Or a Tailor? Doesn't mean they weren't there.

And Ro'gay is right. CM, Doc, Fencer, and Rifleman are the only professions that truly own pvp. As a master pistoleer with BH pistol 4, I was able to do some damage, but ONLY because I had high dodge + eyeshot (more mind damage) and a Geno pistol.

I tested this against Nub yesterday. He has a 600+ damage geo.

I stood there unarmed and he spammed fan shot and stopping shot on me. My range def is only in the 80s, so he didn't miss. He did maybe 100 damage with regen? I think the average shot was for 30 - 50 points. Imperial psgs and stun armor absolutely destroy geo pistols and stun batons.

My **edit** is pretty good, I have some godly resources. Only stuff I've seen thats better is Matta and Tilk on some stuff.

I really need the 2 extra experimentation points to get my area, range and duration up.

Yeah I'd pay quite a bit for them, but nobody seems to have it. Those that do aren't willing to share.

I'd probably pay about 8-10 mil with a pearl thrown in for the +20 contingent on being able to wear the whole +20 at one time.

Really, I can't se why to bother. There will always be a uber template, the game won't ever balance that well. But I'm pretty sure that you can rest assured, combat medics will not have the game breaking qualities that the bugs have allowed us when the combat revamp goes live.

whining isnt very starwarsy as well. i think the only whiner was c3po and he didnt PvP.

melees arent starwarsy.

hunting rancors isnt starwarsy.

non ST imps arent starwarsy.

i mean, what do you expect when imps are standing around overt close together?

20 rebels running into you one after another so that you can snipe them off?
