Hi all. I run a successful medical business on Tempest. I currently have 4 shops on 4 different planets. In all 4 shops, I stock all Doctor items (Flame blankets, Stim Bs and Ds, all heal kits and buff packs, etc...), as well as all resources needed by both Docs and CMs.
I am looking to expand my business by adding CM items such as area heals and posions, etc... Unlike Doctor that I have played since Day 1, I just picked up CM so I can stock CM items. So, I have no idea what CMs use adn what they don't. For example, at least on Tempest, Stim As, Stim Cs, and Stim Esare pretty much useless as most people use Stim Bs and Stim Ds (that haev been experimented down to Med use 40). The same applies for Healing wound kit As. Most people use Healing wound kits Bs.
So, what I need to know from the expert CMs --Whatdo you actually use so I don't stock a bunch of stuff no one wants or really uses? I have plenty of fungus, and plenty of Advanced subcomponents made up. Unfortunatley, I have a limited amount of Insect meat (about 75k), so I want to use it wisely. If you were to travel to one of my med shops, what is it that you would want to find in stock if you needed to fully restock yourself for the next hunt?
Thanks for your time.

It depends, many people are specialized. You'll see Area Mind Posion B/C sell the fastest probably. However some will take CM to compliment a proffession or will target a specific pool in large groups so Single/Area Health C, and Single/Area Action C will see sales.
As far as Disease probably Single/Area Mind C's will do the best, prehaps Area B's for dabblers.
As far as Heals go I would justgo withArea C's.
I don't sell anyCombat Medicine, I'm really just taking a guess at what would sell.

I usually sell Area/Single Health/Mind Poison/Diseases, plus AreaStimpackCs, and a few AreaStimpackBs that were reduced to a Combat Med Use of 50.
You can also put up a little BEC on your vendor, but change the name to: "If you need something else, email me for a custom order".

you might not want to make a lot of anything until we see how the changes in testing shake out. combat medicine use may be about to drop off substancially, and be primarily aimed at area heals.
atm, i make my own for the most part, but i have occasionally purchased area stim c's in crates. i use mostly health area poison c/b/a and mind area poison c/b/a. i usually have two sets, one set experimented for max range.
