Hey Rogue_5 is there anyway you guys could hook up the master doctors with some buff packs after the re roll i will be making my alt into a doc to give out buffs but need buff packs

if you can i would gladly meet someone to have my inventory filled with crates of packs to hand out to other doctors so we can test this as if was live with buffs etc

i made a post in the test center forums with an idea for a starter kit for those that are going master doctor after the re roll

i looked around on almost all the planets to find a vendor that has buff packs but no luck i know some player cities have a suppile of packs but i know thats for them and not for sale

as i won't have time to get harvesters and factories to make d packs if you guys could hook us up the players would love it

just a thought keep up the great work






This is a REALLY great idea.


Bounty hunters are coming soon, they also need access to buffing- carbine specials can be a killer. Buffs and the BH 'kit' would get them close to Live abilities.


I'd like to see how Jedi and BH stack up against each other, and other classes, with reasonable buffs. I make 880+ rated, 12000+ duration buffpacks on live right now (Actions 930+ up to 13500 duration) with 'lesser' buffs being 850 rated, 9600 duration. At least provide 'decent' buffs of 800 rating, 10000 duration to all characters of all 6 stats. Then they just need to find or train a doctor. Shouldn't be too bad. It would definitely help create a much more 'live' test.


Additionally, Vasarian Brandy of 400+ rating, 40 minutes duration and 50 filling should be provided, along with 45% synth steak, 32 hits, 32 filling. These are both fairly common on the Naritus server and pretty sure while the numbers can got a fair bit higher, they would give some indication of how 'live' PvP conflicts would happen. I think a ton of really great testing and information would come of it...?

Although i don't post in the forums very often, I do browse them quite a bit. This is the first thread I have seen such a response from SOE. Its very encouraging to know that you do listen.


Also I agree with killez proposal about the buff packs. It would help simulate live play quite a bit, and go a long way to help us padawan, in TC-2, make our way to novice force skills.

Speaking as one Master Doctor to another - anything over 850 is a waste. I solo everything in the game with 850 rated packs. I prefer to dump the exerimentation into duration so I can solo everything in the game even longer.

Also speaking as one Master Doctor to another - people HATE it when action buffs last longer than the rest of the buffs. They end up sitting around wasting time waiting for that one stupid buff to wear off so they can get a fresh set. So it's better to get all the buff durations the same whenever possible.

Yea, -I- can. What about the people that paid me to buff them? They can't. I'd rather give them an extra half hour of duration than give them an extra 200 points of power.

Because -I- know that the extra 200 points of power doesn't really help anything.

And I've asked a lot of people which they would prefer and the ones who pretty much play buffed -all- the time (like me) usually tell me they prefer the duration...because the extra 200 points of power doesn't really help.
