Just wondering if the cyborg throw range arm works for combat medics, and if so, is it a right or left arm? I just used my final respec option to pick up MCM/MRifles again, and I'm hoping I can use the +10 Weapon Range arm with the throw arm to stay at 75m.

I think this answer needs to be stickied since some people can't use the search tool.


NO THE THROW ARM CANNOT BE USED TO INCREASE YOUR RANGE. THE DEVS HAVE ALL OFFENSIVE MEDICINE CODED AS A MEDICAL ACTION NOT AN ATTACK. HENCE ANY MEDICAL ACTION DOES NOT GET AN INCREASE IN RANGE BY USE OF A CYBER ARM.

Where did you find this information? I've tried searching for information about the arm but came up with nothing like that (No offence just wanna know).


Currently the +20 throw range arm does absolutely nothing at all. It doesnt help Commando throw nades longer and it doesnt help CM throw poison any longer. I've tried this myself. Range for both Bactatossand nades(C12)is 35m with or without the arm.

Part of it is from feedback from other players. If you do a general search using the phrase "cyber arm" you will find several threads where this is discussed. Part of it is my own experience with cyber arms. Lastly, I have played a CM both on TC and Live servers and I have tested the limits on each. Trust me, if there is any way to increase range on Offensive Medicine I'll be one of the first ones to find it.
