I am Master Combat medic. It should be called great ranged stims to heal you while you fight. I descided to master doctor. You know the best of both worlds. I can poison you and heal you lmao.But I always die . Lose a buttload of faction point pvp cause I always die. Did I tell you all I always die.I have no marksman skills left and I'm getting ready to lose scout. I need to move all those skill points to master Doctor. Anyway there is point to this. I cant craft disease c packs they come out level 800 use. It caps at 100 so how the heck can they be made 800. Someone told me to try getting a new crafter but that seems pointless. I can't make money either unlesss i team up with people. Which basically means i watch while they fight and hope my mind doesnt drain. I thought as a master combat medic I should have a chance to kill my target not poison it, run away and hope it dies. Yes people I can poison imp npc's and they dont agro but if i dont kill them by some other means I cant loot them and I dont get points of any kind.


If anyone can address the crafting issue i'm having i would appreciate it.


People whine when they get diseased or poisoned but they have to remember I'm dead watching them lose stats laying on the ground. Then I clone have to be healed and the tef lets them run up and kill me again before I even know they are there. Who's got the short end of the stick? I think we do.We are a support profession. I believe all professions should be able to function independantly.

The crafting problem you're having is known. Please see the Combat Medic FAQ stickied to the top of the forum.

Actually, SWG was designed with the idea of interdependency. Basically, no matter what class you are, you can't take on all apsects of the game by yourself. A Master Weapon smith shouldn't be out gathering Kryatt stuff by using a WS Skill, they either need to take up a combat skill or get others to do it.


Medics aren't meant to fight, we're meant to heal. Too many people want a class that can do high damage and heal themselves for significant amounts. A Combat Medic or a Doctor should be behind the front lines, keeping people alive. Staying alive in a PvP fight as a medic is difficult because we're targetted right away. Learn to counter that, because thats the biggest challenge of your class. And a pure Support build like you (which I am, Master Doc/Master CM) is the weakest combat class in the game! But if you play your cards right, your group won't die and you'll be an unappreciated hero!

The unnaprecaited don't get paid. I can't keep healing people broke. Hope they realize this.

Well, im not sure if this is help or not. But to make some money do what i do. Solo on dath. You are a doc so you can buff your rock beetle. and then get karimuth defiler missions and poison/attack till your done. This is a slow process if you have no marks skills as you previously stated but to me its still faster than running 2k missions on coronet. Like i said not sure if it helps but im trying. Good luck

I hate pets. They're whats replaces medics on the field now-adays.


Person 1: "Should we invite that medic? I thought we'd need healing or something..."


Person 2: "Nah, that's too much trouble, just get a meatshield pet, who needs medics? They're just around to heal wounds, ignore em"


Person 1: "Oh, ha, yeah, silly me, I thought they might have a use! Stupid non-combat class n00bz"


Person 2: "No kidding! This guy wanted me tip him cuz he healed about 1K wounds on me! LOL"


Person 1: "Yeah, I get that now and then too! I mean, **edit**, they want money, they should go out and get CH or something and kill... heck, they only need to pick up a pet! When will they learn!"
