I'm having a real dilemma deciding where to go:

1) Combat Medic

2) Commando

3) CH/BE

I'm leaning towards commando right now (hoping they patch the damage soon) but CM is attractive to me because of the disease/poisoning.

Question: any sense in going CM just for that? Are poisons fast enough to do any real harm or do they server a useful function now? PvE vs PvP -- is the poison tree useful in both areas?

Thanks... =)

Poisons do ALOT of damage.

problem is you have to master CM to get them.

My thoughts;

Not yours.

The don't do "a lot" of damage in terms of DPS actually. The power behind poisons is that it is a DoT and has an AE form.

poisons do not do damage in terms of high dps like mentioned above.

poisons do a lot damage while you, as a CM, are avoiding direct combat. that is the key to be successfull.

and yes, i am going CM just for P/D.. all the healing i need to do i can make with normal StimD's. AE and Ranged are just eyecandy (to me)

CM's poisons are mainly successful because of the mind poison. Anyone with basic medic skills can live through a action or health poisoning, its mind thats killer

guys you forgot to mention that a master CM is an uber PvPer.. but completely useless against mobs..

Poisons = Good vs. PvP..

you want PvE.. get a combat profession.. no not combat medic.. that's a serious misnomer -_-

Actually CMs are incredible PvEers. Our poisons are not that effective however our healing ability in combat in truly un equaled against mobs who do not always attack mind. I can keep a group of 20 alive very effectively which is why I chose the class.

I am also glad we have some punch in PvP but thats also at a very high price in maintainance costs, crafting time, and many many PvP deaths trying to get into range or once that mind grenade goes off.

That's why I chose to be a CM. To support my buddies that can't live by the 7m rule when we are in combat.

I pick at targets with my pistol, lay down supression fire, and gun ranged heals out to my comrades.

I do like the poison concept, but I haven't played with it much, and don't want to have to dig up a lot of exotics to make them. So I think I will max out my ranged healing and then max out the master wound treatment from the doc line to perform the res move.

I've been dabbling in PvP, so maybe I will finish off the tree, but for now I am concentrating on pistol so I can hold my own with that tool.
