Combat Medic Archive

What would be the incentive to be anything else but CM? You guys chant "Bring or be a doc" now, but if CMs were the only ones that could innoculate, then then the chant would be "Bring/be a CM". So you'd need more CMs to offset the CMs of the other side? The only counter to a profession should not be that same profession.

I AGREE 100% ONLY MCM SHOULD HANDLE THIS WE ARE THE ONES MAKING THE MEDS USED WE SHOULD MAKE THE CURES. ALSO WHY LET THE DOCS MAKE ALL THE MONEYS

Good Riddens.. CMs were made for support... mostly healing but with some combat damage ability.CMs still have all there healing and that its self is strong enough if used right. If you use CM just for damage you are getting nerfed and shuold be. Combat Medics can heal Health and action damage much much better than docs plus they can heal minds that in its self is plenty for a healer class. The damage CMs do has gotten way out of hand.. its about time they were put in there place.

he makes some very valid points... it's amusing to watch those who offer logical arguments be labeled trolls, rather than debated... i'm especially dissapointed that the devs would allow someone to become a profession corrospondant, who would resort to name calling...

Even valid points contain within an obvious attempt at trolling is deemed trolling. Once this occurs even the most valid point become merely trolling

The are more effective methods of providing negative commentary which would not be viewed as trolling.

As a master doctor, I dislike being forced so close into battles that CMs have some opportunity to avoid. CMs for example get to throw their diseases and poisons, while the doctor has no ranged effect for the DoT curatives.

I would have much preferred that CMs been provided an ranged AoE poison/disease mitigant that slows down the progress of diseases or poisons, but only some of the BF. The DoT must still be healed by a doctor, and soon, due to accumulated BF.

Doctors and CMs should have specific categories of things they can perform or do, elsewise the professions lack distinction. By keeping the high-performing wound heals and DoT curatives in Doctor along inoculations, and giving CMs ranged heals (such as they are), DoTs and ranged mitigants, the two classes retain different character.

Obviously the Devs haven't realized that giving Doctors this AoE curative makes all poison and disease AoE mobs ineffective.
