I'm new to CM 4404. So at current I buy my tools of the trade. I can get pretty good stuff but at MCM can I craft just as good stuff without having to find the most uber resource drops ever or is it best to let someone else do that for me and just buy the completed product? Also what are the best tactics for using CM in pvp. I hear that hiting the secondaries for mind then hitting with mind poison and disease then spamming someing like headshot3 is killer. Suggestions. Thanks!

Really depends on PvP. For instance, I always carry area for Non Jedi People. reason being, if theres a doc in the group he has to use areas, or running around and healing people costing him his mind, which in turn your snipers should take him out. I always make sure to carry a single with me as well, but dont use unless a jedi is around and he is the target. You can stack singles on top of areas (as long as the effectiveness is different) thus you can double dot the Jedi. Secondary diseases area are always fun too. But I just hit focus, and mind with them instead. Better to take the snipers out (focus disease) and the melee tanks (mind disease) since a few hits will kill them.

As for crafting or buying, really up to you. If you can find a CM that doesnt mind making them for you, then your in good shape. But on scylla the CM stuff is overpriced and garbage for the most part, So I would suggest buying them and being greedy and not sharing =D

It all depends on how often you use your poisons and how much effort you want to dedicate to the CM profession. The ones selling CM stuff are usually those that have blown alot of cash hunting down CM experimentation tapes to make it as a 12 point crafter. It also cuts down on the need to locate decent CM vendors.

Thanks to the devs and the little variance between a level 4 and master the Master Combat Medics are becoming an extinct species. When I have my MCM tag up I get alot of tells with the same thing over and over, "Can you make me some uber poison plz?"

IMO crafting is better than buying, just because you always get what you want.

Unfortunatly though, it'll take a good30 Million Creds to become a "ub3r" crafter. At my old rates that woulda been the same as 1200 or soPoisons/Diseases.

So its all up to you ^_^
