Thread: Thinking of dropping doc

I have been master doc since January and loved it. But the fact of just healing in pvp, surplus of alts that are docs, and my whole dang inventory is full of just meds got me to thinking. Maybe it is time for a change....I am also master TK currently.


So what I want to know is has anyone dropped doc and came back because it was too hard being used to fast heals and state cures and the ability to buff themselves? I am thinking to doing smuggler...pistols, and tk with novice medic. I know smuggler and pistoleer are both borked professions but they sound like something my character would do.


So please tell me if I am crazy for thinking of dropping doc, I know my pa thinks I am.

I dropped Master Doc on my main toon a couple months ago and then just recently picked it up again on my Alt.

If you have a reliable source to get buffs then i wouldnt worry about it to much. Myself i play solo often so finding someone to buff me can be a hassle. As for healing did you plan on dropping all of your Medic skills as well? If not stim b's or c's can hold you over pretty well. Basically it boils down to are you still happy being a Doc?

My guild is filled with alts..three are master docs so buffing won't be a problem. The template I am considering is Master Smuggler, Master Pistoleer, and TK 4404, with novice medic and first aid 1. So meditate can heal all my wounds, poison, disease, and bleeds. Novice medic will be just for stims for heals on the fly. I have some that are well over 400 with over 40 uses so I think they should do nicely.


I guess after all this time and the number of docs around I just feel like I need a change. The other thing I considered was starting a new character on another galaxy, but all my friends are on Valcyn..and starting from scratch is such a pain. LOL


My fear is that I will miss doc so much I will have to get it back...I have gotten used to healing entire bars in one heal. And just clicking for a poison cure when fighting cm's. Dropping dance wasn't so hard from me because although I loved it, it wasn't as useful as doc is. But if I don't swtich soon I may just retire my character for good..and I don't want to do that. Just thought it might be nice to hear from someone that not having doctor anymore isn't so bad..

Make sure you keep your resources and crafted medicines. They're much harder to restock than XP is.

Other classes are fun too. I inevitably came back to doctor as my primary. But you don't need it. Non medic characters can be so strong they don't need healing when played right.

I suggest BH Carbines 4/Some Carbineer. Smuggler/Pist/TKA is cool though too and likely to become even more interesting with the smuggler revamp.

I dropped doc and I'm missing it badly. I'm BH right now so I can't pick it up again, but you will VERY much miss curepoison, dizzy heal, healing your whole HA bar in 1 stim, and being able to buff w/o having to spend money and TIME. Its truely something thats a crutch and makes me want to drop BH.

Hell just do the triple master thing. Dropping medic may seem like a really bad thing, but if you can keep good on teh buffs it's not that big of a deal. Because as your template exists your missing one of the most important lines in TKA.. the line that gives you power and speed.
