I noticed that we've gotten zip, nadda, nothing in the past few publishes to adress any of the issues we feel are important as a profession. They addresed issues OTHERS felt about OUR professionbut nothing we want. What is with this? Why don't we get answered? And what are we getting in the next publish or hotfix? Anything? Thanks,

Do or do not do, there is no try.
And to show you how the Devs have lied:
"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, ?How can we do this and not make another EQ?? We didn?t want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class. So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we?ve created a system to make that happen."

While im allways for my proffesions getting all types of love there is other stuff they need to work on. Healing in general got some stuff not to long ago. Other proffesions have been waiting a long time to get something fixed or loved upon.


Share the love.

Last I looked there has been some sort of change regarding healing in every pub since the CU hit. Some we may like and some we may dislike.


Is there something specific you want to see happen?

Docs are more than their heal line, but right now we might as well not have the other 3.

I am not saying we should be fixed next. There are others with worse problems, but lets not pretend doc isn't broken.

Er doc ISN'T broken. In fact, in all the time I've been playing one (a long time now...) I've always felt that this profession is very worthwhile to play. Since the CU we've gotten reduced stat costs for our heals and a 50 percent reduction on the amount of aggro we generate when we heal (though in the DWB this seems to not apply sometimes ) and many other good changes. I would list Commandoes, Squad Leaders and Rangers as the three professions that are in the most need of some love given what happened to them with the CU. Doc, Combat Medics and regular Medics would be near the bottom of that priority list (still above Jedi though )

I never said our heals were broken. I said we are more than just 1 line. Yes we heal, but we are more. Buffs are a joke. Bleed healing is a joke, since bleeds are a joke. Stabalizers are a joke, since they only remove 1 and just about every full combat build can remove their own stats. Poison and such aren't in pve, etc.


As for healing, our ability to self heal is great, but as a combat healers we are lacking with short range heals. You could say that makes sense, because CMs are the combat healers, but if we aren't suppose to be in combat healing groupmates, what is our role? A secondary for melee professions to be better tanks?


P.S. Keep in mind I am not saying we need worked on right now and fixes to other professions would help us, like fencer. I am saying our role is rather up in the air and the tools we have been given are mismatched to what we need to get the job done.

ah... so buffs are a joke... um ok no they arn't


ok so cureing poisen/fire/diesese isn't in pve... um npcs will flame you, some creatures will poisen or disese you....


stabalize is a joke... um for the most part i would agree... but do you know anyone else that can remove intimidate?


not to mention the HoT Infusion....


pluss the best rez in the game along with the best single target heal, "Bacta Jab" short reuse timer, and only 6% mind vrs 10% for other heals and 12% for spray....

I think what he is trying to saying is the profession is lacking anditcould be better. Ive been a Doc for a bout a year, and I have agree. Im a PvPer and the majority of what I do is keep myself healed and speed buff everyone which is 90% of the job.

What I'd like is a return to the level of disease / poison that was around pre-cu...as for fire, most of the time it catches me totally by surprise I'm scrabbling for the extinguisher so we don't need more fire...
