Combat Medic Archive

I posted this in your correspondent's thread. (grats on showing interest in what the community thinks, btw) Anyways, basically I am saying "don't panic about it."

============================

Make it so. This change can't come soon enough. Frankly the ONLYperson it really hurts is the combat medic, and they should have a weapon to back them up anyway. I don't think it is even a problem with them.

Shoot or thwack your target once, and whatever pool it lands on, 10% of the damage already goes to the other pools (10% each). If that doesn't add up to 1 damage, well, you aren't certified with that weapon. Not to mention with a value of 1 in any ham bar, you can't use any specials (every special takes from all 3 hams, though it is mostly from a specific one)

Seriously, over the course of your gaming career, youmight miss out on 1 kill due to this change. What is that compared to saving others the frustration of being slainwhen you are nowhere in sight?

Believe it or not, this helps your profession. It stops people from hating you so much. This saves you from the really big nerf bat.

The biggest problem with the DOT changes in general...

How many times have you been fighting in PvE and been incaped. You watch the NPC approaching about to DB you when your bleed, poison, or any other DOT kills the NPC just in time.

This change may be good overall for PvP but it will be very bad for PvE.

I think it will make the nerf bat come our way. i can already tell you people will toss a posion then toss a disease or rely totally on disease. If you thought posions were bad wait til you are getting hit with diseases all the time.

Disease is just way too slow to ba any good. If a fight lasts long enough for disease to be a factor then that fight lasted too long.

Disease should be changed or removed from the game. In PvP disease is nothing but a griefing tool.

I disagree as disease being a griefing tool. Have you ever been in a PvP battle where the opposing side plants a house to hit and hide? They'll keep running in and out until they have no HAM to do anything. Besides, if diseases are considered griefing the use of flamethrowers should be considered griefing as well. Let's continue to nerf everything until all weapons only do 20 points of damage. Le'ts make everything equally balanced. Come on,at least you can have a doc cure disease, only way to cure flames is running into water.

RandonB... you sir, are an idiot. Don't open your pie hole about another profession and how a nerf will help it untill you ARE that profession, and I mean MASTER of that profession. Now go away and indirectly whine about getting owned by another class on another board.

The Commando in this pic got incapped from my health poison seconds before he was able to reach me and land a DB. The other person in my group had just been rezzed and was still groggy.

If +1 was live then ineffect this fight would have ended with me in the clone center instead of him. That is why I am opposed to the change.

I don't understand how another profession knows how a nerf will effect us?... I'm speechless on how many people have come on to the CM boards in the same fashion as this guy... are they are crack?

I don't go to the CH board and say don't worry guys, even though you won't be able to use anything but ikopi's you'll be ok....
