sorry if i've double posted - on medic also- but the medic boards are rather quiet these days


i'm looking at using my last respec - drop pistol rooting tree and get medic 0430 with novice CM (to support M.BH, M.rifles).


jsut a couple of questions, with this new medic template - it seems i get 3 types of heal


1) can i use bacta toss/spray/shot on myself? or are some of them others only?


2) what are the re-use timers on these bata toss/spray/shot abilities?


3)assuming i can use all 3 on myself, can i use them all at the same time (or close to) or do i have to wait like 30 sec before i can use a different ability - or the one i used refreshes?


4) of these 3 abiltities which if any can be 'improved' with bio-engineer made products?


5) if i have +25 in tapes on my clothing for healing efficiency, would having the cyber res arm with +15 healing efficiency help or would it just be counted as 'part' of the +25?


i guess ideally i'm hoping that (taking from a recent guide on the doctor forums) i could bacta shot for about 530, then bacta toss for 340, then bacta spray for 200 withina few seconds and all on myself - with the right clothing/enhancers/foods


thanks for the help, i've read a few of the guides here but still finding my self a little foggy on these details

1) you can use them all on yourself. Bacta spray targets yourself and heals others within range. This is very handy, but dangerous in regards to hate when involved in PvE.

2) I dont know, but its fairly short. As long as you dont try to use any one move twice in a row they come around fairly quickly (maybe someone else can give you an answer in seconds)

3) nearly at the same time- there is a cooldown similar to the one between weapon specials, but it is reasonable.

4) toss and spray can be enhanced. Shot cannot.

5) I'm pretty sure the +15 on the arm would count as a clothing style mod, which are capped at +25.

Good luck. I'm a master CM from pre-CU, and I don't really know what its like to hold just a small bit of CM.

Mr. Jackson hit most of them on the head, but I'll help on #2-3. Delays are approx 12 sec on spray and toss, approx 6 sec on shot. Here is my quick macro for self heal. Note that bactaToss will stop you if you are moving (to 'throw the bacta), so you may want to take that off the macro. You could also add a stimD to the macro as well:


/bactaShot self;


/pause 3;


/bactaSpray self;


/pause 4;


/bactaShot self;


/pause 3;


/bactaToss self


My personal opinion is that unless you has skill points tied up elseware that isn't in your post(FS more than likely) is that you would get more from going up the x/0/0/0 branch of CM as far as you can go rather than the 00x0 line of medic. For the same skill points as 0030 you could get 2000 CM. That would get you the improved versions of Toss and Spray.
