IF your opponents dont have resists, IF for some reason you will live long enough or stand upright long enough to do it, and IF you actually have the space on your hotkey lines then what I've found to be the best stacking method is...
1) MIND poisEn (singles for singles or area's for groups...duh)
2) HEALTH poisEn (same as above)
3 ACTION poisEn (same as above)
Reasons: When a doctor makes a cure attempt the cure pack will deal with the stats in the following order. Health, Action, and finally MIND. Some doctors are fast on the draw and will cure off a poisEn in under 4 seconds which is how long it takes for your throw timer to reset. However, many aren't and if you can apply a health poison before they hit the /curepoison button the curepack will have to eliminate that health poison first. Any effectiveness from the cure left over will touch on the MIND poisEn but many times will leave enough to continue eating away. If you can land an ACTION poisEn before they hit the cure button, then all the better.
If you're fighting a doctor 1vs.1 like this then it will be a draw or you will lose as their singles can usually cure off the worst we can throw(haha) at them. In group actions, the doctor will be able to save themselves but may find their companions in trouble. Of course killing you is a sure way to eliminate the source of the trouble. Be prepared to run....alot. ![]()
In most smaller PvP actions I find I have enough time for only 1 throw unless I want my opponents to reach me. If they are all ranged I might get more...but ranged PvP'ers aren't that common anymore. Besides, krayt DE-10 users dont like to go against my damage slice T21. Seriously though, as a single entity I find my Combat Medic skills dont get to be used that much if I want to survive the fight but with groups I get to use them more....all of them.
*note: All poisons were converted to poisEN so the Paddy wouldn't have a hard time understanding them. No poisEn's were hurt although we hope some Jedi were. ![]()
