Thread: Doctors are NOT useless in the CU
yes Docs are VERY needed! Although at first glance it seems they are not....but once you get going in the world it is very obvious the ramifications of Not have doctors.
Wounds everywhere
PvP everyone is on fire and poisoned.
The buffs are nice and useful...enough that people still tip for them.
Yes doc is somethingthat is needed.
And before you say it, CM can Rez too, so that point is moot

No they are not, anything you really need you can do at Novice Doc, MCM, and Medic
Wounds everywhere
Who cares, really? no one has ever paid me to heal wounds, and I doubt anyone ever will. Why should I care about anyone else in this system? Besides, sit in a med center afk for a bit...you are ok.
PvP everyone is on fire and poisoned.
I don't PvP, 80%+ people don't, making this a useless arguement, i don't want to be a PvP class

Uh huh, Medics can do that too
Yes doc is somethingthat is needed.
Nope, not really, not at all

No one is saying a doc will have to PvP. What you will have to do is support PvP players, though, to get anywhere.

Depends, as you know I went to the Player Breakfast in Indy, and the changes really make sense after actually hearing about why they did what they did. Good things will come out of it, just wait and see.

I've never truly faulted the spirit of the changes, I know the game needed to improve, however I think they way they're handling the changes is pi$$ poor...

Too bad they didnt share that much needed info with the rest of us paying customers... how thoughtful. I like being a DR and being able to heal people but when you cant even figure out what the heck you're doing.. pushing this and jabbing at that and spraying someone with this and dont forget to stick a magic fork in them first and turn an then try to figure out all the sprays, and what?... if we have sprays why do we need stims, and how do we get the 30% buff and how do we know how much we buffed other than a little blurring pic under our ham... yeah real nice to share this info... i've looked on the boards and i can't findS**T about how and what these stoopid things are... dont get me started on TKA.... i hate you SOE.
How can you support them without PvPing? By that statement we will have to PvP. Look at the new overt rules...can't buff overtsunless you are overt, can't heal or rez unless you are overt...hence if we are to support PvPers, we have to PvP.

Wow. I completely disagree with you on all but one of your points, and even this one I'm on the fence:

So for the rest of us - who are master doctors - who've been doctors for almost 2 years - ya think the devs might have clued us in as to the intent of these changes BEFORE it went live? I'm not a PvPer - only time I've dueled anyone in the past 2 years is becuase they asked me to kill them to rebuff them - I don't do combat and I don't want to do combat - so you think for those of us who enjoy roleplaying a doctor, the good things will still come out of this? And how long should we wait? Long enough to keep paying for beta testing the cu? This one is FUBAR and everyone knows it.
No one is forcing you to PVP, so I don't know where you get that from. The point of the CU is to balance out the game and make it fun. I asked Tiggs point blank before the breakfastwhen the CU is release how compleate will it be...and her response was simple; it would be released in an unfinished form because the people on live do a far better job at relaying info then those of the TC just because there are more people. (Not exact words, but close enough)
Obviously you fail to realize that, or you seem to think the CU is some type of personal attack on you and "your" professions. The CU is about the game, not about Doctor, or whatever professions we doctors play as. Buffs were ruining this game as much as armor and weapons where....and honestly if someone thinks differently they need to open their eyes.
A lot of people are taking the CU way to personal, and if you really don't like it, then no one is forcing you to stay either.
i am a master doc, i was with a hunting party......i spent all my time rezing, cuz i couldn't heal while rezing, so after the first person went down......well that yellow bar takes a while to get across your screen, and i had to rez the rest of the group. Thanks SOE
O yeah and i have not gotten a lick of xp since i logged on after the CU......doesn't matter the situation. i've tried them all. sent ticket.......got a blah blah blah
