Thread: Nerf Doctors
OR
Make it so a Docs can only buff in hospitals and in Ranger camps (with medical work stations)...not novice scout camps.
PS
Only talking about buffs and major wound damage...not stims.
I would much prefer to see encouragement to use the Med Centes--like making them +120 or +125instead of the current +100 so they are superior to using our droids out in the city streets. Do that, and the buffing will fly back to the Med Center where it belongs.
Restricting us will not help the game. Cry not for the Nerf, instead call upon the Devs for a worthwhile improvement.

Yeah, and I never went to the airport to see a doctor either. Anyway, their should be some kind of realism and get rid the spams and lag in front of starports for people looking for buffs. Yes, it is convinent but really though it's not star wars; it's place is in the hospital.

I agree with that.
Great, well everyone will be killed in one hit with a blaster. Also huge enraged creatures will have no chance of being controlled by a PC. Don't even get me started about the fact that your vehicle can be stored and called in the wild. How about the fact that we don't have to sleep? Everyone should need 8 hours of in game sleep or else they'll have severly reduced capacities. See the point? Yes it's not "Star Warsy" but it's a game. If you don't like the lines in the Spaceport use a less traveled spaceport or only frequent doctors using medical facilities.
Oh, make sure you send this over to the Droid Engineer forum so they can hear that someone wants one of their most useful droids, the med droid, to not be used for anything anymore.

HEHE, that was a funny post. But naw, maybe rescriction is to harsh, a person metioned above stated to let med centers have a better med rating than using a droid. That should incourage doctors to use the med center for buffs but Docs will still be able to do good buffs in the field with their droid.
Dont think DEs will be to upset considering their new ability to create new droids in publish 8 and hopefully after that better battle droids.

I fully agree that med centers, even NPC ones, should have better med ratings than the droids. I think hospitals are great and should be used more.
Where out of curiousity did you see a post linking new droids/battle droids in publish 8 and future publishes. Cruising the DE forums it looked like TH had said that combat ratings of 10 would be about the cap for droids. Maybe I missed something and if I did I would be very interested in reading about this.

The like for DE new droids is..

There was talk from the devs making a new droid controller profession(DE Hybrid profession) where DEs could control high lvl battle droids...that was put on hold. The proposal was on the DE board, cant find it now though.
I remember the droid controlling profession but the DE community, I thought, pretty handily swatted that idea down through many many petitions. As for the one in development I wouldn't count on that too much. The page was pretty vague and judging by the "droid invasion" we are seeing I just don't think combat droids will ever be factor...instead it looks like droids will help you specialize or do needed things (like the covert scanner).
If the droid controller thing ever pans out they'll have to be very very careful as it'll probably just turn into another CH where people will cry and moan instead of adapting proper techniques.
