I have to admit I would love to see this at this time. I'm no doctor, but I do get wounds. I go to the med center and nothing. Just wounded people there. I know you don't get XP for healing wounds outside of combat anymore, that's a bum deal for all, but darn it Jim your a Doctor. Why did you take the profesioin to begin with? For the XP, the money, or to be a Doctor and heal poeple? It would be nice to see a RP Doctor. I would love to walk into the med center and be greeted by a nurse telling me to, "have a seat the doctor will be with me shortly." The Doctor comes up diagnosis my wounds, lets me know how long it will take and what it will cost to be healed. If you play for XP what's the point of playing?

I've kept doctor strictly for the wound healing ability, nothing more.

I think it's getting sad and pathetic to see JEDI haning around in starports healing people. It's as if the Devs and all the whiners who bitched that doctors made too much money pre-CU (a myth, most docs didn't make much more buffing than a combat char running 9k missiond did, just the gross numbers were bigger) and decided to nerf bat us to death.

Now, the consequences are being seen.

NO wound healing available in known places.

You have to encounter a Jedi or KNOW a doctor to get healing.

Only those in guilds which have doctors have ready wound heals...

I hope the Devs and the anti-doctor whiners are happy.

Soon as the respec is over, I'm going to start charging even more for wound heals than I used to for buffs, sitting in the Cnet starport. With docs being so rare now, I'll get it too. And I'll have no problem doing it, the whiners CREATED this ridiculous situation.

Or, should I go into combat? Why? Soon as I heal ANYONE everything aggros me! As if A DUMB ANIMAL can sense greater hostility in someone injecting medication into someone WHO IS DOING ACTUAL DAMAGE TO THEM as a greater threat!

The other night I went to the DWB. Got one shot killed soon as I healed a single party member.

Stupid stupid stupid STUPID, and pub 17 does nothing to fix any of this and 999,999 other similar broken garbage in other professions.

Eskie,
I picked up Doc POST-CU because i noticed there weren't enough around, and my guild needed one.
Anyway, how much do you want for your 12point clothes/armor? Good lord knows i could put them to good use
Thanks,
Ga'Rak




My 12pt doc clothes would run somewhere around 30 million if I sold them, but Im not planning to.
Currently I am jumping a little between templates, but I am pretty sure Novice Doc and BE 0004 will be part of my finished template. Youre playing on Bloodfin, btw - you couldnt buy my clothes, anyway.

I'd kill to get a 12pt set


Best of luck in your travels,

Yeah, stupid forum bug - your server only gets shown if you fill in a PA, also.

The meds do a better job healing than any doc could, anyone can rez with the cyborg arm, and our buffs are useless...


I think we need to get NPC wound healers in the medical centers who can heal faster than master docs at no charge to the player.






why is every one so dead set against a doctor making a living? ganted the post cu buffs could have used a serious nef (along with some wapons and armor but that's a nother thread. but as it is right now people aren't even willing to give a measly 6-7k for a buff or 5k -10k for a heal (depending on "how much" damage they have (i can't sayno one will ) but most balk as if i "owe" them the service. pre-cu thing where much diffren of course but that was then, this is now, everything is worth less, but not "worthless" some...well alot of people are venting anger, naturaly over losing millions, in conversion. but that aside are you (those of you who refuse to pay "anything" for doctor services)saying that we don't "deserve" to make a living?


one of the most beautyfull things about this game is it's diverscity.it has so many "different aspects", proffessions, there was something for all. but now any one who chooses non-com. gets tossed aside. i hear a lot of combat proffessions saying "you're not friendy " if i won't be bothered to heal or buff not all mind you but some, and that just isn't fair.we "earned our proffession, as well as you, we need suplies as well as you we're no more bots then those of you standing afk in the starposrts shouting about what you have to sell, want to buy, promoting you giuld, lfg, or spaming I NEED A HEAL, ANY DOCS? CAN I GET A BUFF? but god forbit i should ask for any "any" compadation.


If you're a runner gunner, more power to you that is quite cool, no sarcasm. but at least try to understand the points of view of the non-coms this game is losing "life" the unque part of the game that was the social and econommic aspect of the game. we could bring that back if we all just showed eachother a little respect. there will allways be bots, powergamers, and rude little children, exploiters, and hacks. that is just the human nature. but those of us that are none of them should be able to work together to make this the "live" galaxy it was before i've allways been fair and at the keyboard (every one on chimaeriawho knows me knowsthis) and i'm not the only one. i will help when i can ,,,but ... if you "contact me" to do "you" a service, i don't think it's unreasonable for me to ask a price. at wich point the choice is your. but plesase don't try to makeorexpect me to feel quity this is my "profession" i didn't choose comat madic for a reason.


of course this isn't my only proffesion but we all have our own game to play, i would no more ask a dancer to drop what he/she was doing to imspire me then i would ask and armoursmith or weaponsmith to hurry up and make me something, much less expect it for free! does the buff or heal cost me anything? yes my time and though it's not that big of a difference i still buy foods and use my droid and clothes.am i asking you to compansate me for what was lost in conversion? no i was screwed by ose not you. does that mean i'm intitled to "nothing" not imo. does that mean you souldn't try to find a free heal? that';s your choise (i would, but not for long) bottom line is we all have choices to make, you do what you think is right and i'll do what i think is right. and if you want to be mean to me because you're not getting what you want for free i know how to /addignore and if some one spam is bothering you ...do the same =)

I enjoy being a Master Doc. I also enjoy going around and doing the "drive-by" healings as well. I'm here to have fun. I'm not in it for the XP or money. That is not what this game is all about. It's about making new friends, playing with co-workers and having a good time with it. Remember, this is only a game people. I do understand those that are in need of XP to continue to advance in the doctor profession. That's fine by me, just grab some friends and group up. I'm not here saying this to offend anyone at all, that's not my intentions. Just go out and have fun. For those of you on my server, just look me up and send me an in game tell. I'll heal your wounds for free. My name is Sali-Tayre Drekas and I'm proud to be a Master Doc! Thank you and have a good and safe holiday! /cheer

I am a master doctor for my own selfish reasons like being able to buff myself and my friends(my guildmates). I also like being able to res ppl. I do go around and just heal ppl because i can. I will buff and wound heal for free whenever asked. I am not a master doc to make millions although i do appreciate all tips. But i never ask for tips. I go out hunting that is how i earn my credits, so i am out hunting and not healing as often. But i realize that is my choice. Hey that is just my view on things. I never became a master doc for the money because I wasn't a master doc until after the CU went live.



It is another good day to play the CU.

Sweet I think adding a BE NPC vendor to the med center would work to.. Buy all your meds there at cut rate prices or free even.. Then I wouldn't need to track down a BE shop.. Oh wait forgot BE's are on the A list atm.. So that Ideal is out lol

I don't totally disagree with you. I've wasted a ton of time on seeking a group, dealing with a bad group, leaving the group, rinse, repeat. I'm not impressed. I don't feel like I'm having fun anymore.


However, if I see a doc charging for heals in a spaceport - I start healing for free (well, I run around and do driveby heals for the first 20 minutes or so after I log in - just because). I took doc for the money - pre-CU. I admit it. Post-CU that won't work - so until I quit the game I'll try and make the best of it.
