Combat Medic Archive

You've all heard about the changes Pub 19 is going to bring, right?

Well, my guild leader forwarded it into a guild email yesterday, for everyone to read. All the Jedi complained in guild chat about how they have to regrind everything now, blah blah blah.

So, I make an innocent little comment along the lines of "Better heals for CM! *cheers*. I immediately got flamed for it.

It seems everyone wanted to keep Combat Medics in the gutter, except for the other CM that is my guild. They complain when we have super DoTs pre-CU. (which I didn't wholly agree with, but oh well) Now they complain because we can heal better. A lot of the Jedis in my guild have this mindset that Jedis and maybe Doctors should be the only ones that are able to heal. They don't want Bounty Hunters coming after them that are able to heal themselves. (that's the trick of PvP....you aren't fighting an NPC)

Someone even went so far as to say the Combat Medic needs to be a damage only profession, and they shouldn't have any healing. This is pretty much the opposite of what people wanted Combat Medics to be pre-CU. -_- He'll learn to appreciate my improved area and range heals next time in PvP when he gets triple incapped.

I'm with you, Rivaan.

What Badger said

It is Jedi, what do you expect?


They are like, hardwired to whine and complain about everything if they are not instantly and unarguably better than everyone else.

qfe.

even my friends that i have love and respected for almsot 2 years now, once theyre jedi, they are instantly leveld to mastery in the "Whiney-Bish" Profession

I think that the hatred for pre-Cu cmdots that tore apart entire groups is still there. I still get attacked first just for being a cm even though it takes a while for me to get all my saps on and ticks rolling. The scars are still there and just remember most jedi are carebears so ya....I am in that boat with you though on teamspeak I got attacked by 2 guildmates because i was talking happily about how doc and cm are getting changed. Dont worry about it they are just as angry as we would be if they made our dots do 100 dmg per tick.(not that the "nerf" jedi are getting is even in comparison to that type of change)

This isn'ta nerf, just a balance.

...Just to make them cry some more they should bring back HealMind and Increase their heals and Dots by 2x

CM is probably the most underpowered standalone Profession in the game. It DESERVED what it has coming to it with P19!

Oh and.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH DEFENDER IS BEING NERFED!!!!1

...HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH

AI NOW MF'r!!! AI NOW! BEEEEYOOOOTCHES!!!

Kick em' while they're down

Edit: its not to say though that AI won't be extremely useful in High End PVE still. Defenders are still going to be good. I feel sorry for the Master Healers though =( But its for the better I'm sure.

Not all. But it seems all of those "Master whiners" are active on the forums. Reminds me of the "Every1 who likes the Combat Upgrade is busy testing and doesnt post on the forums"... lol (was true in my case, played more on TC than on live)

But I guess the main problem is: If you dont like your "regular" template you can regrind it in 1-2 days (depending on how long each day you can play). But your Jedi template? Its like: You have it - You keep it. because xp-gain is 1/5less per mob andyou need like 10x more xp.

Dont get me wrong: With "all those" Jedi we had to be balanced in one way. But it would be nice if they stopped changing that much so we could decide for a template. But at the moment we have to fear that a good template will be useless the next week (not all and some more than others but it is possible ) I will keep my token respec at least until the new FRS is out and decide what changes (if) I will make to my template. As long as its fun...

You're absolutely right Tycho. CM deserved this updated, even so we areunderpowered than we were pre-CU.

I still have not tried the new publish, but I think our poisons still won't grant us any experience points. I hope to be wrong.
