Combat Medic Archive

I can see both sides of the arguement on the current change to the poison DOT attack. The poison/disease DOT is the only means of offensive attack granted to CM's directly, not counting other profession skills.

Since we are classified as Chemical Warfare Expert's why not give us some kind of attack such as a poison dart or some similar attack anyone can think of. It would not be a DOT attack but a one time damage attack. They would be craftable and could have levels such as A-C, and the schematic's would be granted at CM Crafting 1,3, and Master. It would be crafted from similar materials that are used to create other poisons but would also require additional bone or metal for the dart.

At master there could also be a verison that could launch multiple darts and have an areaaffect, but not like other combat medic area attacks but rather it would be similar to other professions and affect targets in a 45 degree area in the direction of attack.

The same potency/effectiveness standards would apply allowing for a hit/miss situation that would allow the target to resist the effect.

The dart suggestion is just an idea and if anyone can come up with something more creative suggest it. The idea is to havean effective non-DOT attack added to the CM profession.

This kinda leads back to the Bio-weapon idea that divided many CM's. Although if you were to go with a poison dart weapon, the BH would prolly chime in and say it should be thiers because of the movie. I am not going to suggest any new changes to the CM profession untill we can resolve the changes that have been made, unless there is an outcry for me to do so.
