Thread: Gave up my master doctor certificate
I admire you. It takes a big man to admit defeat, especially when the defeat is to whimpering teenage geeks who complain about price in a free market.
Well done.
well, after about 1-2 weeks being master doc, well, i gave it up, reason? simple, boring, enhancing isnt that great.
Okay, so when i hit it i was like, pwn! enhance Ds! Well, avian meat, bah! !!! Best quality i found was 600/600, and i could get 700 enhance base for all of em (exception of action - 750 or so). So then i saw this 900 / 900 on bazaar for 3k, bought that in a second, made 850 packs. So i try and make some money, i start off 1 cr per stat ehnanced, okay made some money, and then the whiners say.. 1500 per stat! Most docs do it for 1k! And i say, sure, go get me some good avian meant, and ill lower my prices. Then i get this lovely reply saying "**edit** noob". Thanks, i appreciate it. so then i decide i might as well just go 1500 a stat. Okay, some people bought it, others said it was outragous, then i finally lower it to 1k per stat, and people STILL WHINE. So then i just gave up doc all together.
Looks like im going combat medic, at least i can PVP with that professsion. Cya later Docs, good luck
I'm closing in on master doc now less than 5 blocks. On intrepid we generally charge 2k per majors. Yes Avian meat is very difficult to buy, and for the life of me I can't seem to find a mob that drops it in big quantities. I have offered to buy it in 500 lots from any youngish player who wants to kill nuna's in Tantooine or Naboo but surprisinly I had no takers at 5per unit.
I've seen a lot of frustrated doctors out there with people begging for heals for their pets to free stims and wound meds. Generally I ignore them, there is no point in letting a griefer decide your course of action or change the way you play the game.
As far as I'm concerned being a master doc is a unique testament to your skill and fortitude. You chose doctor to help people and enjoy that portion of the game. Why change now?

Hi, I play on Wanderhome and I have found 987 (I think, 980+ anyway) in OQ and quite good on the other stats tooon Talus. I kill all sorts of Rasp's and a couple of other things that also have Talusian avian meat. It's great and I haveenough so I can make many enhance-D's. EverytimeI go to TaIus to check my harvestersI kill everything I know that has avian meat. Ishould try to get some good reactive gas thou...
Good luck to you all.
I have some avian meat on order.. 970 oq 890 pe i think.. a guild of scouts, go figure.. im buying 10k units off them for like 40k..
that much meat should last me a long long long time.. since im cheap and dont ever enhance anyone cept people i know. I sell stim a's & b's and med a's and b's. i make plenty off those so i dont need to sell enhances.
Yeah, one block of grinding til i hit master doc! then i can sell anything i want. ![]()
Im really sorry that you gave up on Master Doctor...
You cant let other people's complaining stop you from doing what you want. If you want to charge 1500 per buff go ahead, it's called supply and demand. if you have little supply, and demand is higher...prices will be high no matter which way you look at it.
Im on Eclipse and normally only buff people i know, but when i do need some cash fast i stand in the med center yelling "Doctor in med center doing action and health buffs, 2k each or 3k for the set!!"
I get a lot of /tells from people saying "what a ripe, they only last half an hour" i just /reply telling them that they last 3+ hours, than /add ignor name.
the moral of this sad story is that you can't let people bug you, thats why we have our black lists.
To be a little more precise, the substat d's. You can make the two important stat buffs, action and health, with just the medicine crafting line.
You can make and use Action and Health. but your yield will not be as high as a master Doc. you also dont have a full 10 experimentation points to tweak those bad boys out.
When Iog on I now get about 6 tells from people wondering where I am, and if I can buff them. I go to Theed broke, and make upwards of 50K an hour just buffing. I normally run out of enhance packs before I run out of customers. Some of the regulars are addicted like crack heads, hehe....
My prices?
1000 per stat, or 5K for all 6 physical stat buffs.
I often run an imperial special, where they get Health and Action btoh for 1500 credits.
After I had a couple regular cusotmers, through word of mouth they brought more. Without doing anything else during the day, I am almost guranteed to make 25K credits over the course fo a night. If I go to Theed and advertise, i can make 50K a night easy, and upwards of 75K on a crowded night.
I am enjoying master doc so much I have completely dropped Smuggler and Squad leader to get here, along with rank 4 Unarmed, most of my scouting, and a bit in other areas.... It is a completely rewarding and profitable profession. And i can stand most reds down one on one when i am buffed and have good stims to heal myself.I hunt WAY better as a doctor.
"ou can make and use Action and Health. but your yield will not be as high as a master Doc. you also dont have a full 10 experimentation points to tweak those bad boys out."
Master doctor conveys NO additional skillpoints to medicine crafting. You have 10 exp points at the time of completing medicine crafting 4.
I have no idea why so many 'doctors' seem to think they get additional experimentation points for being a master doctor.
