Combat Medic Archive

I thought I read once that CM's got combat xp for poisons so I made some and tried it out and only got regular med xp.

Do diseases give combat xp instead or am I just wrong all together. I only need about 22K combat xp to master pistoleer and can't use traps to get it because I had to drop scout.

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks.

you have to kill the monster then you get combat exp. you get initial med exp for applyign poison, then after you kill, you get combat exp based on how long and how much damage the poison did

lots and lots of combat xp. Doing enraged rancors in a group my combat xp is 500-800 when I use my feeble poisons vs 100ish normally.

ya lots of combat xp but nothing to spend it on

Thanks all. I'll have to see about getting some decent poisons.

c12's are better for combat xp

nah, the combat xp bonus from poisons/diseases is good if your working on a secondary combat class (like me). Instead of being the slowest tree, the branch that needs combat xp is the fastest when you're a CM.

c12's are not better, i get 5 k combat exp when i trow a couple AOE poisons at the squill in the squill cave

I bought some aoe poisons C's and used them at the tusken fort. I poisoned a Tusken Chief and let it take his health almost all the way down. I got over 3K combat xp from that one mob. I got the combat xp I needed to master pistoleer.

I have thought about continuing to use the poisons til my combat xp was maxed but even with all the combat I received from my brief trip to the fort that could take a while because as master pistoleer, my last combat xp requiring box was 150K xp so it would probably cap at around 200K or so.

If you need a lot of combat xp and you would like to get it fast, with become a CM and use poisons or start tossing grenades. I'm not sure but I believe you get more combat xp from throwing traps we all. I know you get trapping xp but I could swear that I used to get a boost to combat xp as well. Though I haven't thrown a trap in a long time and have since had to give up scout so I can't test that theory anymore.

Thanks again for the advise.

Im a master combat med working on carbineer and transitioning to doctor and when I solo creatures I stack 4-5 poisons and then finish the job with the carbine and I tend to get more combat xp than weapon xp and several thousand med xp to boot. Poisons are of limited use PVE in terms of damage output but down at the tuskan fort or any high density area you can grind combat and med xp very quickly with them.
