Thread: Dr + Cm ?
Greetings,
I'm kinda bored at work so i was thinking about SWG :-p
I was thinking would the Doc + CM be variable ?
The Doc really has some nice buffs and wound healing + revive [ths kick S part]
While the CM has range healing [Max stim D], AoE healing [Max Stim C], and DoT.
Cos in the so called End-game it would be faction war and PA war...
And i was kinda worried that If me being the Doc, gotta run around to heal everyone while everyone WILL be spreading out. Here's the CM would really help by doing range healing.
I understand that having this Combo my char would be a total gimp in combat, but honestly, i'm willing to giveup my combat for my guildie [partly also no one really wanna be the healer in the guild hehe j/k]
But on a deeper thought, if i were to do this combo, i'm afriad my mind pool wont be enough, it's hardly enough for me to heal in heavy battles, [i'm a zabrak with 1000 mind and 800 will] , so this is what kinda hesitate me from going to this combo, [**edit** no mind stims hehe]
Do u guys ran outta mind when in heavy battles ? And does having a high focus help in reducing the mind cost while healing ? My focus is set to the lowest.
Please advice... Thx :-)

that is exactly what focus does. willpower will make your mind regenerate faster, so if you're planning on healing a lot you should make all 3 of these stats high.
I was messing with the Skill calculator.. and i got the following
Master Medic/Doctor/Combat Medic
Lv 4 Range support / Lv 4 Rifle or Pistol / Lv 1 Rifle or Pistol
I'm not a soloer and i always travel in groups....
I was comparing this combo to my original template like this
Master Medic/Doctor/TKA
I would really hope some DOc/CM beta testers could give me some advice .... Thx..
I was planning on being a Doctor / CM combo...with some Pistol and Tailoring Skills on the side. Regardless, the CM profession will give you a little competency on the battlefield...and a combo of these will still leave room for you to get quite a few marksmen or brawler skills. I think a CM / Doctor will be able to put up a decent fight...I haven't slept in thirty hours. You may want to ignore me.
-Agromda Awati, Corbantis Galaxy
-Combat Medic / Doctor / Tailor / Pistoleer <---I am doing it all.
I'm thinking about going Doc/CM/Pistol Specialist...
But everything i use the builder I cry, cuz i have to surrender out of survey 4 to get there...with resource shifts and what not...running harvesters is gonna be a pain to do, not to mention hard to place them when u have no artisan skills and cant even survey....
Guess I'll be buying alot of resources....
On a similar note:
What would be the best Character species to start out with for Doctor/Combat Medic?
I started out as a Wookie because I was planning on being a combat medic. I'm starting to run into trouble keeping my Mind in shape when in the heat of a battle healing people. I've started migrating my attributes, but man that takes forever!!!
If I decided to reroll (or at least start a character on a different server), what species would you recommend? If you have figured it out, what would your ideal attributes be?

I've bee Doc+CM since November and still love it every day.
Depends on what you want to do.. I love the support role.. and until the nerf pretty unstoppable in 1on1 PvP...
I added Pistol IV to the mix and it is a great time.

Doc+CM= pure support and very very dull. Great if all you want to do is back up others or for large scale PvP but if you want to do anything by yourself you're up a creek.
This is untrue. In group pvp, the doc+CM is always the first target. This is one of hte toughest templates to play, but the most rewarding. My old running group knew that if I died, they died, I lived, they lived. Pretty easy when you think about it. It isnt easy to play the "god role", but damn is it fun..

I very much disagree with this.
I created an alt just to go the Doc/CM route to support the PA, because I was so reluctant to let Tazz give up CM when he was so needed in group activities (any major content, basically) in the game. Also, got too used to being able to toss AOE stims and instantly heal a dozen players and pets and save the day when taking on a peko peko alb or a krayt.
Doc for the state, poison, and disease heals, and of course the buffing, CM for the battlefield healing and some offensive capability.
I find it challenging to keep people alive and myself alive at the same time. My presence is very much appreciated.
