The good news is that it affects all docs. So we're all starting out again with a level playing field. Also, you still have two months at the very least before it hits, so there's time.

Let's talk about that for a moment, because both you and one of the correspondent pep squad "this will be FUN guys! Put on a happy face!" mentioned it earlier...

At present the medical economy has come to a screeching halt. People are wary of this news and don't want to waste money paying say 20K per buff pack, (120K per set), when they may wind up paying say 5K after the CU. I'd say most doctors may buy one set, maybe two, depending on their rate of buffing, to get them through, but that's it.

So now the resource holders are wondering what will happen. Sell now? Wait and see? Liquidate? Truck driving school?

The problem is, we just DON'T know.

NOW. If the devs had opened the floodgates and told us exactly what is going to happen, we could start to prepare. Without that vital info, all we can do is wait.

What we really have is X amount of time from the time they post the nitty gritty changes to prepare...

Oh, and to the original poster, I feel your pain brother! Like I keep saying, we're the necessary sacrifice in order to serve the greater good. We'll still have a commodity, but it won't be nearly as valuable as it is now because the need for our product won't be there...

When the system changes ... what happen to existing meds? Having 50 sets of buff packs become useless might be a bit painful, that's 6 million (ballpark) that could just go poof!

If they are gonna change existing weapons and armor to suit the new system, I assume they are gonna do it to meds and all that. Remember that wounds packs are also reduced to just one type (health), so I hope the others will be converted to health packs.

TH posted that they will come out with a document next week explaining how the different items will be changed in the convesion process. As said above, I'm sure the current components and pharmaceuticals will be just as effective or useful as they are currently. If you're going to respec to BE to continue doc crafting, I see no problem. If not, I'm sure there will be many who would buy the items from you. Might even make some money in the process.

As for resources, I doubt anything of high-quality will ever be without value. The resources requirements are as diverse as the resources themselves. With a new armor system and other changes, I'm sure the devs will come up with even more uses for current resources. I wouldn't worry.
