I am dropping Doctor/TKM to pursue Smuggler/Pistolieer. I really like the benefits of the Doctor profession, but it also has it's downside. Doctor is one of the least broken professions out there.


Here is what I liked:


  • Self buffing

  • Powerful stims

  • Being benefical to the group

  • Crafting

  • State effect cures

  • Complements just about any combat profession

What I didn't like:



  • Constant tells for buffing

  • Group members acting carelessbecause of a doctor being in the group

  • Free heals being expected

  • No survey skill (having to switch between Scout and Artisian a few times a week gets old)

  • Price gouging of resource venders

  • Lack of resources spawning in reasonable quality or quanity

I guess what it comes down to is that I want to be fairly independant and casual in my game play. Doctor does not allow this as much as some other professions, plus the player base seems to have a skewed view of what the Doctor is. 20 more skill points and this wouldn't be an issue.


Fairwell.

It's a shame, but I understand your position. Currently you either have to rely on others for resources and such, or drop some combat skill. It's a tough choice for many.
