I cant seem to find one. Feild medics dont count, as they never used disease or poison.

I would be watching for SOE to pull the entire profession, more than i would be ducking the nerf bat. Just seems odd to me that a professon that can be mastered in 8-10 hours is the strongest in the game.

It may be wise to reign in the greifers that use your profession in bad ways, and maybe suggest some usefull changes benificial to the comunity, or possibly watch it disapear forever....

not to be disrespectful but ARE YOU INSANE?!?!?!?

do you have ANY idea what would happen to their player base if they pulled an entire profession because there was no reference to it in BOOKS?!?

keep looking in your books and see how many references to 'player cities' you find.
get a full list of the NAMES of the Master Chefs, Master Architects and Master Taylors from the Star Wars literature.
find all of the Master Brawlers (NOT TKA mind you, Master Brawlers)

all the Master Pikemen
and all of the references to Master Image Designers

if your list > 100 then perhaps you should in fact bring this VERY important point up to the Devs at SOE because they should go back into the game an yank ANYTHING not mentioned in the books.

Yeah and lets talk about Stimpack's period. There are no stimpacks in the movies that I have ever seen. There are bacta tanks, but those were not hardly mobile were they? How about doctor, I have never heard tell of a doctor either, medical droids yes. How about a bounty hunter that actually killed someone? None of those in the movies either!

Where are the flame throwers?

Then of course you should not have a star ship coming every 10 minutes to take you to another planet either. Or shuttles that take you around the planet.

There were no jedi running around the universe, no rebels openly sitting in the star ports.

This isa game and liberties were taken with it. They had to be to make the game playable for the audience. CM is one of those.

Oh and yes there are references to poisons, even area of effect poisons in the movie. Do you not think that it is possible then there is someone making those poisons in the background? How about Darth Vader's truth serime? How about the gas that Obi Wan and Qui GOn Jinn had to get out of? Both are examples of poisions that someone had to create. How about that?

So you see there are more examples of poisons in the movies than there are bounty hunters that actually succede in killing someone.

Remember Jar Jar Binks has a larger body count than Boba Fett!

Also, there were no references in the movies or books to bio engineers making kimogilas. Let's remove them. And all weapons in the SW universe were made by large corporations, not private weaponsmiths. Let's remove the weaponsmiths too.

Wow... Not one real answer, save references strictly from the movies. Please note that the gas you mention in episode 1, was illegal, so it is unlikely youwould see a combat medic trainer anywhere at all. And truth serum? Yeah, thats the same as an areamind disease.

Just on the realistic side, you would have to worry about splash damage, just like the other thrown weapons in the game. Dont even think about mentioning others AOE attacks, as they all originate from the player, not 80 meters away from them.

Dont get me wrong, i dont want them to nerf you... After i finish my current template, Ill gladly spend the 5 hours it takes to become master CM, spend 200k on some nice area diseases and poisons, and joyfully run around naked and overt killing all oposing faction membersI see (Especialy the ones inside buildings... Ill love that skill.). Then Ill lick them just so they know its ok, im imune to it.

talk about not having a real answer. in your original post you stated you would be watching for the ENTIRE CLASS to be PULLED FROM THE GAME!!! because it was not in line with the literature.

we then showed you about 30-40 OTHER things, BIG GIANT GAPING HOLES in continuity and how the game has taken liberties to be a game and you come back with a cry for NERF?!?!?!

While you're at it.....

If your desire is to make the game more like the movies/books then here's a few more suggestions you need to bring up to the devs....

1) Storm troopers (in fact, if you just go by the movies, ALL IMPs) should be horrible shots and die with one well placed laser blast despite the fact that they're wearing full armor.

2) Any R2-D2 unit should be able to slice into any terminal. Period.

3) Any wookie character in the game should have the default ability to rip someone's arm off at will. The only exception to this rule would be maybe another wookie....

4) Defeating a CH's rancor should be as easy as putting an old bone in its mouth to keep it from biting you.

5) You should be able to defeat ATSTs by tripping them with a rope, rolling logs under thier feet or smashing them with tree trunks.....

I'm sure we all could go on and on and on about how many differences there are in this game vs. the existing Star Wars fiction (movies/books/comics, etc). The point is, this is a GAME so some liberties were taken with the Star Wars license to make things more interesting for the player base. If the fact that things aren't just like in the movies/books bothers you to the point where you have to call for entire classes to be removed then maybe it's time for you to move on to another game.

I've seen some legit, well thought out complaints against combat medics but this is definately not one of them....

First and formost, anyone who thinks the Devs will simply 'remove' an entire profession from the game, a profession for which they spent ardurous hours to design, code and implement, a profession for which they've taken the time to counter in various ways(which itself took a lot of time and effort to code and implement) simply because it doesn't appear in the movies or literature is a complete and utter troll.

A troll seeking nothing more then to incite flames because at one point in time they were probably killed by a CM in battle, after having killed that very CM a half dozen times. The nerve of the CM, thinking they should be allowed to get even a single kill on any other profession...

Nerf cry, kind of threw that in to keep the flames off of you like all the other trolls on this board do. And then you have to audacity to say that no one answered you. The fact is you are right, there are no references anywhere that I am aware of. We also took the time to point out to you a number of other things that have no reference which you just dismiss out of hand.

Go back and troll the creature handler forum for a while.

Please point out where i was trolling. You have no idea what profession I am, or what profession I am currently working on.

There are references to all other professions, in the other starwars games, movies and books. CM is the only one without a reference at all. Some have fewer that others ill admit, but all the others are mentioned in one way or another. All references to disease or Bio-weapons are either long before this time period in the timeline, or dismissed as illegal use.

Just because someone doesnt agree with what a certain profession can do, does not mean they are calling for a nerf. I was actualy just informing you of the CM's lack of substantiation in the SW literature, and a possible reason for the devs to do something about it. If youll re-read my post, it is a request that you inform the greifers in your profession to be carefull, or they will cause everyone in your profession to loose something.

In a side note, removing myself from the equation entirely, if you voted in the swg forums, hom many do you think would vote for removing the profession VS those who wish to keep it? Put any other profession in that vote, and i believe you will see my point.

There are trolls that post here, sure. It would be wise for you to respond kindly and informatively to them, rather than calling them names, and insulting them. Also make sure you leave out usless arguments like Damage per second, or range mods. CM's have the best of both those right now without a doubt.

It is inevitable that they will change the profession drasticaly soon. If they dont, every 3rd PVp'er will be a CM, and nobody would be able to call the game Starwars after that.

Strongest in the game? Your a dumb noob.

Looking to the movies for a solid background for a profession? Lets' play another game that would be more interesting... Point out ALL of the professions that didn't have a direct implication in star wars....The list is far more broad than just combat medic. Again dumb noob.

When you can point out to us how this post differs from the other 500 or more on the subject then you may be believable in this statement.

Otherwise you portray yourself no different than all the other jackoff losers and as such your being treated just like the rest of em.
