Ok, Dancers/musicians can't buff themselves, they can only heal/buff people when they come back from quests/or stop at a tent.

On quests like Death Watch Bunker, and Corvette, this is not possible. Infact, it makes them completely useless, and Mind always gets other players killed, even fully buffed, mind is what hurts.

Why not give them a perk? Give dancers/musicians some type of ability to heal other's mind. Heck, give it to squad leaders if ya like too...something useful...

How about the ability to scream/cheer people on during the fight which will heal their mind? Maybe like an area mind heal from just hearing your singing/shouting?

Maybe have a musician play a war drum as they march into battle (during the battle) that will heal mind and keep moral up?

We need more than just jedi/combat medics that can heal mind. It's not too fun to realize you're dying and can do nothing to stop it. Not even spice/foods can help when you're time is coming.

Maybe even give them a heal pack for mind that only musicians/dancers can use? It will give people a reason to be a dancer/musician/ent more than they have now. Right now they're nothing more than buff/healbots.

Give them some combat life.

And while we're at it, give them the ability to buff themselves as well as others. That's not too fair for the work that we/they go through to get to where they are.

That's my gripe.

The ability to rally troops in battle would be a welcome addition....more like the bard template that some people want to approach in their playstyles. Dancers and Musicians have been requesting the ability to buff themselves since buffing became an option....but it unlikely that they will resolve this in a manner to our liking until they figure out how to factor in the xp we get for the buffing process. Wouldn't want us to have an infinate xp loop after all

This was already considered in the past, and the ability to heal mind was given to combat medics instead. The options were entertainer, CM or SL.

However, with the coming combat balance, word is that mind will become healable from stims just like everything else so mind attacks will no longer be the "silver bullet" they are now.

Master Dancers and Master Musicians get +7 to ranged defense and +7 to melee defense incase a fight breaks out in cantina. Does that count?

That's craptacular.

In all seriousness, if a Doctor can buff or heal himself and not get experience, I don't see why a Dancer can't do the same. I find it hard to believe that an infinite xp loop can be removed from one profession's realm of possibility, and not another's... <eye roll>

On the other hand, I can eliminate afkauctionspam in Coronet now, and that's actually better. Although it does nothing for the auctionspam from the players who don't set their afk tag...
