the only reason was that i wanted to try the opposite thing to being a combat medic.

Why opposite? Because after a few weeks of pvp as a cm i was so frustrated and tired

with all the tells I used to get, just because someone noticed me throwing something

nasty. Most stupid situation was like whena guy dies 50m from me, and i didnt even

notice him before my mates killed him...

and what happens? A moment later arrives the /tell "you fookin cm i hate you"

"check your combat log mate i didnt even touch you" "you lame cm i hate you"

"a good day to you too :/" Do they write down all names of cm's so they can

start sending the tellsif they see 'em?

Because I wanted to play a support healer role to friends who had already started.I thought about combat medic but I quickly found out that doctor worked as well, especially after a few people started showing up buffed. Now of course everyone's buffed and damage healing isn't a huge part of our role.


I meet a lot of great people by being a battlefield doc though less than I used to since times have changed and people don't group. During the course of the months I've played, I've enjoyed the crafting side, then the merchant side (both as streetside buff vendor and seller of packs), and now I'm back to what I most enjoy--being the battlefield doc. Nothing is as exciting to me as a battle where things start to go a little (not a lot) wrong, and I have to do some quick thinking like peacing out dropping a camp and pulling out a droid to stop a nasty mind disease before it gets anyworse, or rezzing someone then taunting the aggro away. Or even having to do some woundhealing. I wouldn't be upset if buffs became a lot weaker, or even if they went away, because I would still be a doctor. I had my fun being a semi- invincible solo fighter, so I'm ready to see the game shift back to where groups are needed.

Needed a way to save up for that AV-21. Once I have it, I think I'm set in terms of selling buffs

Ichose it because I liked being able to heal myself and others. There's no way I'd ever give it or Master TK up.

Two reasons.


First - For my guild and my town


Second - Had a bad crash on Dath when I was just starting out. Couldn't get back on till the next day. Get back on... no buffs... aggroed by Rancors... died within seconds... lightbulb went off..........

2 reasons:


1) Got tired of scouring the server looking for doctors to buff me at the times I played, and if I did find one I had to suspend all activites and sit in a line of 20 people.


2)Got tired of being just barely scratched by a chuba or nuna who's damn poisons ticked for -3, but stayed on me for 3 to 4 hours.


I figured it's time rely on myself, and things have been smooth sailing since.

I became a doctor because i wanted to handle my own support with buffs and heals, i sold buffs for a while but it got old. I got tired of people expecting me to cut them a deal and then complaining about the lines.

I became a doctor to assist me in my TKA profession. I play odd hours and for short periods of time, maybe an hour then I log. Having the inconvince of having to wait in line, buff, play for 20 minutes, and log wasn't working out for me.


During the doctor grind though, I realized how badly people needed rezzes and cures, so I had another purpose. I enjoyed put down harvesters, going to collect my own resources while running into mobs and killing them along the way. It worked out nicely..... I used to buff others but sadly there was way to much complaining so I stopped

I first was a fighter , but than i realized how important the doctor proffesion was so i became a doctor to help those in need. I didn't join for the money because i don't need the money. Its been fun, and i currently work out of a med center on LOK
