I don't think it would destory the usefulness of both. If both sideshad 1 or 2 CMs, then they would negate each other (in theory, but tactics could make a difference). But if one side has an advantage in numbers, they would still be very effective. Docs can still help cure and can of course res. I don't necessarily think it would be a bad idea, at first thought. Every power should have something to counter act it, that is called balance and is not necessarily a nerf. I would rather see this happen then have them take something away from us. And finally, use sports as an analogy, the worst team could beat the best team anytime becuase of match ups and tactics. Some teams just match up better against an opponent than others so they have a chance. Same thing here, a CM may be better than someone else, but there are other who can take us out.

No, I thinkthat is a little excessive. Better yet, something better for doctors. An immunity pack to increase the defenses vs poison and disease. Would decrease chances for someone to get poisoned. Would work like a buff.

Some problems have to be addressed first.

A Doctor has the knowledge to make cure poison and disease but the Combat Medic does not.

A Doctor lacks the knowledge to use ranged area of effect stims but the Combat medic does.

My concept:

In order for a Combat Medic to use an area of effect cure poison and disease the following could be done.

A doctor makes the cure poison and disease. Then the Doctor provides these to the Combat Medic. Then the Combat Medic uses these cures in conjunction with the dispersal mechanism and the same resources required to make an area of effect stim pack to create the area of effect cure.

Hopefully this shall foster a better working relationship between the two professions.

What needs to happen is this:

Cure Poison and disease need to be made to use combat medic components just like our stims require doctor components. Then we can give doctors the ability to buff poison and disease resistance. These should ALSO take CM components to make. This would finally give the CM a business and a way to make money in this game.

Also the resists should be weak enough to make sure that the doctors would want to get our advanced components to make them better.

That is my thought on this subject.

Yes, and totally destroy the usefulness of CM attacks and Doctors in PVP

Doctors would still have to rez, and they heal health and action better then us....plus area cures would be weaker then single cures...
