Combat medic was an evil profession before the CU with a "win" button. Now it actually takes some skill to use effectively. Its not about the DOTs anymore....

what was skillful about tossing legendary mind poison that ticked for 2500?
<--------------- the faces say it all 
I have been a CM at various times pre CU and now I am a CU post CU...I like the CM role a lot better post CU...
It allows you to do a lot solo if you are that type of player...it allows you to be usefull in a group too...
I enjoy it a lot.

I don't think we got nerfed. Personally CM in it's present form is really what most of us CMs were asking for anyway. We didn't want to end battles quickly. We wanted to be the best battlefield healers. We wanted our profession to be worth the points we spend. I was considered one of the most notorious CMs on Kauri, and even I wanted things to change.
Do a search on this forum and you will see how many CMs, including myself, were willing to give up the DOTs in exchange for debuffs.

While mind poison was very nasty stuff it was just one item that everyone seemed to focus on instead of anything else. If you mean "better" as in l337 then sure.... I was a 12pt CM (heck I ran against Psi for the CM corrospondant slot) and I was guilty of a few 1800's out there but I also was guilty of some some of the best area and single heals as well. Lets be honest, every CM knew that the unhealable MIND issue was a major problem and needed to be solved. The stuff we get now isn't as damaging as it was back then but is rather more balanced out. We still have DoT's and it still takes a Doc to cure them but while their power isn't as nasty we get an array of debuffs to back them up.
in pvp - cm was unstoppable Incorrect. There were ways of negating a CM which many people often failed to realize and often paid the price. I never feared CM's but often they feared me. I paid well for 12pt. Doc's to resist buff me and often got accused of exploiting when other CM's poisons bounced off of me. noobs
combat medic is BAD! the way michael jackson means it
oowwwww shamone!
