I keep it simple: If it is an imperial he/she get whatever service he/she needs. Otherwise you will be met with silence.

Many people in this game are just plain ignorant. A guy asked me the other day " where are u" I replied " I am here. Who are you." He says " a person" then " can you buff me for free and hurry the shuttles leaving soon ". It is this kind of I am your **edit** metality that makes me not help anyone except for a group im in or my guildmates. But absolutely after my little rant you should charge for a rez. People do not respect Docs enough in this game so why should you respect them. 10k is not enough 15k minimum. Figure the costs/time involved if they dont pay. 5-12k for buffs, Decay and insurance, wound heals and mostly the huge pain in the ass it is to do all those things when the alternative is standing up and saying thank you. Whew i feel better now

I agree with everyone - Charge whatever you like - however I do fell bad when I see a doc charging 12K to rez at the Geo Caves when the danger level at the time is small. I like to give a little break and charge 5K if I'm around them per Rez. I say charge away though and if the person complains - ohh well - Clone - Decay - and Ride 5K Meters back to the cave. Where I will charge you 12K for a buff anyway since I'm there risking my life. If they whine about the Rez or Buff price I say enjoy the death and move on (Costs about 6K to get to Yavin IV - The price to clone - the decay factor - and the travel time back to the cave . I would pay that myself If I got DB'd in the geo cave!)


However anyonethat buys abuff gets a free Rez in the cave (If I can get there) - Since they will probably want another set of buffs!

Know what's even funnier? I fight at the geonosis caves myself, at least I did before I gave up master fencer. And yes, because I was a fencer and our weapons suck against medium armored 60% resist mobs, I died tanking. So I know a few docs in the area. Not just by name, people I've hunted with before, just not "friends". I ask for a rez, and I get "Ohhhhh, wait 5 minutes for my muon downer to end" and "I have a line of people I'm buffing, I can get to you in 10 minutes". You'd think that people would be scrambling to keep the docs alive, no?

You obviously dont know how often I die


Nae I want a macro that you just push one button and it makes a WP for you with your position. I think this would be possible if I only knew if theres a position command like theres %NT for instance.

Since that didnt go the way i planned. I was in the geno lab the other day doing the missions, had my master doc tag on as always. I am soon Spammed with like 10 tells asking for a res... Now me Im not the strongest doctor out there so i would have to risk my ass to go res them in some incredible large mob.. So i make a reply and ask for 10k.. Now most of them were more then happy to pay.. Considering getting rebuffed the drive the wounds.. they would save money. But a few people just blew up and flipped out about asking money for a res. What do you think, i dont want to be the only doc to charge to res someone. If i am the only doc to charge i will just stop ressing.So theres the vote /charge or /no




/charge








I did not read the other post but wanted to respond. Tell them they have 5 minutes to pay or clone simple as that. Bet youget that 10k

From a non doc standpoint, not knowing you, I wouldn't of asked you in the first place. However, I can't recall one time /telling a perfect stranger something, because of their profession, when I wasn't planning on paying them for their services if they wished to provide them.

Also, if you had rez'd me in the situation described here, you wouldn't of had to ask me for 10k. I would of given you more anyway.

I charge 2k for a rez, but if I can't get to you I can't get to you. So if I can't drag you to me, I tip the cash back and say sorry, can't rez you if I can't survive it either.

LOL, ok..... Make up a macro that says simply "/waypoint" and put that on your toolbar. Boom, macro problem solved. But ummmm.... Is that THAT much easier than just typing "/waypoint"? I'd rather have the toolbar slot dedicated to another action, but that's just me.

lol Entropism, well what can I say? Im usually the only one in my group that ever has to clone. Wich gets me a bit offtopic, but Ive been thinking on a macro that makes a WP for you where you died. Anyone have any good ideas if its possible?

how about before you clone, you just type /waypoint? Seems easy enough to me that it doesn't have to be macroed.

You're all a bunch of cheap bastards, Either rezsomeone free or dont be a doctor. When I was a doc, I didn't care who it was, friend or foe, if I couldget to them in time,I would. No questions asked.
