Hi I play A doc and Im getting kina miffed about when ever I go out on a raid every one keeps saying how much faction they got.

Yet I the lowly doc who did all the running around and healing and resing didnt get didly.

Id like a few points as well,Im a Bio-Eng ,Doc so combat is out.

Has any one thrown around the idea that faction points get given out evenly for the group rather that just the one guy who did the most damage?

you have to do some kind of damage to get faction, it's just fare. I mean imagine if you were grouped with a player and you two went to go kill mobs for xp but he is sitting back doing nothing, could be afk, could be your healer, and when you kill that mob, instead of you getting full xp, you get half of it cause half went to him for the fact that you two are grouped. That would be unfare. Now in your example it's the same. The guys are doing the dmg and your just doing heals, your not attacking the mob in anyway soi dont see how you attributed to the cause of the mob's death, other than you keeping the player who kill it healed. If you want to get faction, just get a small pistol or something and bust a shot into the faction'ed mob and peace it. when the mob dies you'll be granted some fp, just know we're talking like 1 or2 faction points. You should g et some combat skills and farm FP if your in need of faction but as for being granted it for doing nothing (to kill the mob) then i dont see why you should be granted anything.

This has been a long time problem with doctors. The only way that it could be fixed is to split the fp between the group (which could result in a lot lower fp per person than it normally would, and benefit those who do nothing, ie the newb who died and did not clone, and just waited for the fp to flow in), or to give the doctor fp as they heal overts (this would rise to fp farming by doctor, and so imbalance the game). This will be a major problem when the se comes out if faction scematics are purchased with faction over 10k (since most people cannot afford the 1.25M to get 10k faction).
