Combat Medic Archive

I was making up some stim d's today to try and level my combat medicine crafting... 68 points... That's right... 68 whole points for a stim d... What the heck is going on?

stealth nerf..... seems BHs aren't getting as much XP as well. Another low blow to penalize those who didn't get master crafting in the first weeks of the game.

Well... That royally sucks... Not bad enough that I have to buy all these components... But now I have to make over 2x the ammount of kits just to get the same ammount of xp as before... They just expect us to be mindless drones to sit there and just craft all day long?

While I agree that medical crafting is not the most enjoyable part of being a medical professional, I don't understand why others feel the need to power craft (grind) their way to the top tier of medicine crafting. If you have the other tiers completed and can use the higher medicines but can't craft them yet, buy them off of aanother combat medicuntil you can. There are many things that you can do between crafting sessions for fun, hanging out with friends on missions, chatting with others about their adventures in the cantina, running missions on your own, etc. You have all the time in the world to acquire the higher crafting levels, what's the big rush? If you need credits, sell some of your medical supplies, especially stimpack-B's, or acquire some small harvesters and sell some of the excess resources. Eventually you'll get to the top crafting tierand have more fun along the way. Please don't take offense, as I am just making some suggestions on how to improve your gameplay.

I don't mind sitting down and crafting to an extent... But they literally dropped the xp production to be nearly 1/4 of what it was before... I'm now getting 68 xp from what was yielding over 200... Now instead of making 100 kits to get 20k xp... I have to make nearly 285 kits... That's quite a hit on the resources and time of a medic... And that's not mentioning me considering getting some of the doctors crafting line as well...

please tell me this isnt so? you mean to tell me that i'm getting punished for not grinding soon enough?

I tested this earlier tonight with StimC's(don't have a factory atm) and I got 200exp(or 204 can't remember) when I crafted all the components and the final product....

subcomponents don't give uxp anymore if you use them yourself. this results in the final combines on all the packs yielding less crafting exp.

if you craft for the exp, try to find another combat medic who wants to do the same and than exchange subcomponents in bulk (or just grind on simple components /w practice)
