Thread: Doctor Poll Would you trade heal strength for speed?

The devs evidently see the doctor profession as one providing small, frequent cures. Currently, the strongest heal is Master Doctor Bacta shot for around 800 points. Judging from the forums many Doctors aren't happy with having low powered heals andwould like to have heals at least as strong as the 1500 power heal from a 4000 jedi healer.


The questions for this poll are:


(1) Would you prefer Doctor's Bacta Shot:

(a)to be of increased power with longer recharge time (same heals/time), or

(b) keep as currently working.


If you answered (a) above,

(2)Would you prefer for Master Doctor to have:

(a) 1600ish heal with 2x current ramp and recharge rate, or

(b) 2400ish heal with 3x current ramp and recharge rate.


Please vote only once and keep comments short with no extended discussions. Thanks!



Votes as of 5/26 14:00 PST

Question #1

Option A (increase heals/longer recharge) = 6

Option B (keep as is) = 2

None of the above (only interested in higher strength if same duration) = 3


Question #2

Of those voting stronger with longer recharge, a 1600ish heal is the overwhelming favorite ATM.

I would like to see slightly stronger heals but with the same timer. As I have explained before, even in conjunction with all the other healing abilities it still takes atleast 6-8 heals to go from 1hp to 3000+. And that's without anyone being attacked.


if everything was raised even by 10%-15% we would be in good shape.


Wound healing however needs either a shorter timer or a stronger heal....either will work for me, and many other people I would assume.

You can have my 1500 Jedi heal when I can have your armor, def mods, buffs and rez.

I'd like the Bacta shot to be twice the power at half the speed. The triple power with one third speed seems too slow to recharge, that big heal might matter. The other heals would compensate somewhat though.

I would vote that the way they are now is fine. I would have liked them to be stronger at the current speed, but that is wishful thinking.

I vote B - keep it where it is. It would be nearly impossible to manage hate correctly if the heals were increased. Unless, they increased "tank" taunts as well.

Vote for AA and using food/drink to reduce the cold-down timing (and revert HAVLA for this purpose)

spec defender,



right, on topic, id say leave as is, but shortern the heal time, so you can heal quicker, as it is now, its really hard to keep even a single person alive, let alone a group.

1) A.


2)A.


Up Bacta shot, with the above.... move bacta jab somewhere between the current shot and jab.... say... 300ish to 400ish.....

Our whole job is to heal. Its bad enough that two bacta shots causes enough hate to have me burst running with a chain of rancors after me.... But to not be able to heal more than a quarter bar as a master doc..... Sort of defeats the purpose.

I'd take strength over speed at this point.

I would vote for more strength with slower speed.... if


they will increase the heal per tic and duration of infusion. Jedi has a nice improved infusion which has a nice duration.


I use infusion after bact shot, bacta jab enhancer and it usually gets the job done. But I like to start my group out infused so we can begin combat concentrating on kills not heals.

I wouldn't mind seeing an increase in the amount we heal, but not at the expense of speed.


I can currently tank2 level 82s with my heals and CoB without flinching too much, three at a push but that gets quite hairy


I'm looking to buy a droid that can survive a few hits in combat with a +110 med unit fitted as I can get my heals over 1K with the droid out.


If they fix my BE'd clothing, that would probably help too.

You do realise that currently jedi have crazy defence and rez is no problem, just get the arm.
