two real differences spring to mind - bacta toss (with enhancers) can be +500 pts better than shot. the problem is it roots you.if you're a rifleman and you kite alot this hurts, however if you're melee or perfected a tanking role this isn't as much of an issue. i find despite being a rifleman (every part of me tells me to kite away), in pvp i find i'm on the front line healing my group, stating people and getting the odd shot off when i can so toss is perfect for my self and a struggling group memeber, however in group fights spray heals ALOT more....now i'm rambling.

lol no i hear you....spray is great for pvp. i spam spray and my area attack but the problem also with bacta toss is it's bugged, espcially if you using enhancers cause you have to self target. also bata toss enhancers are bugged in that in certain situations they lock your toolbar, and you die cause you can't heal. now there are ways to get around it, one is to not button mash, stims when it does lock etc...however it has lost me alot of fights when i should have won lol. i have also been thinking about making an adjusment to get the bacta jab, and many use xxx4 cm for the debuffs and go doc for the buffs and heals. neat idea, i might try that, but i do love my master cm too

Mostly I'm thinking for a pistoleer fighting Jedi. As a pistoleer with limited range I have to tank them alot which I'm used to. So while standing still to but freedom of movement is good. I'm considering using a droid to help in combat and I know you can use bacta spray to heal both you and the droid but I'm wondering if it would be worth it.

Really I'm just looking at the plusses of minuses of shot and toss to see if the droid would be worth it.

well... if your doing pvp a droid is kinda stupid... at least against any compentent opponent that knows... hmmm droid is increases his healing amount... should I A. Kill it or B. Ignore it


ok to help answer your question since you don't do a search and look for the information which has been stated here on more then 1 occasion...


Bacta Shot - Your weakest heal as a CM uses 10% mind

Bacta Toss - 34m range heal, strongest as a cm using enhancers, 10% mind

Bacta Spray - 10m Area heal, heals a little more then shot with an enhancer, 15% mind


all have their uses.. Now in group PvP i garentee hiting SPRAY will get you targeted against any componetent oponents... Toss has a self root for about 3 sec's i believe it is due to animation... so they all have their uses... and that's all the information I will give you.. Please do a little reaserch before I will offer more advise, no offence intended

i believe i answered your question...


the main issue is on all profession specific boards that we gets ton's of posts asking what's best or how to do anything that it wears on you fast... especialy when you bet such a general one as this where it appears you hardly did any research before hand... I did not mean my post as a direct flame against you, but if you take it as such oh well... i'm sorry that my post going off the little info you gave was quite adaquet

Yeah in PVP ill use spray but just f9or hunting groups ill use the toss. I hat the fact that it roots you/. but in the odd case of fighting a jedi that could be the diffrence between life and death.

shut up zimal, your condasending and actually heal droids work great in pvp. this poster was asking a question cause he didn't want to scroll through tons of dribble to find what he was looking for, and that's what these forums are for, to ask questons. go nerd out somewhere els cause i'm sure people would rather you not answer the forum questions than answer them the way you answered this one.
