Thread: Doc = waste of skill points

Actually to be a "working" doc we need :

- Novice scout : need camps to call medical droids

- Novice artisan : survey resources


So we are all wasting 30 points.

Mastering the Doc profession already eats lots of skills points. It would be nice if the game designers found a way to let us call droids (for free) and survey our precious resources.

Idea : change medical survey to forage rare enhanced resources on planets, creatures, lairs.

True - I to have "issues" with some of the way we need to allocate points.


BUT on aseperate note - novice scout and novice artisan are only 1 point eachoram I missing something here? I ask this in all sincerity because I hear many people writing that they need to spend 15 points in this and that - same goes with people needing "novice medic" claiming they need 15 points to heal themselves.


This has always had me"What am I doing wrong/right becuase novice scout/artisan only cost me 1 point each"? Am I crazy, are they crazy?


Anyhow I only have novice medic and pull 56 units of meat off of a Lok Gurk (sp?) - what would it be with hunting four?Plus I only have novice artisan and manage to drop my harvesters, though it does take me longer to find a good spot, then it did when I had survey 4.


And yes"something" should be done with med forage. I have thought of finding a use for it ie, putting it on a macro and buffing my action, do some work at my desk while my charectermed forages and "samples" a little of all theorganics on a planet over the course of an houror so - yet I would still need novice artisan to find aWP after, or buy/beg/get one from someone else.


Anyhow bye

Any and all of the starting professions take 15 skill points to train in novice.
there is no way around it and it hurts very bad having to use 15 points just to be able to pull meat from the things you hunt.

It only costs 1 box, but the actual skill point cost is 15 points each..

go into your skills window, hit All Professions and the choose one starter profession that you DO NOT have. Click Novice Scout or whatever and it will say how many skill points are needed ... beginning novices cost 15 skill points, the exception is Politician. Elite Novices cost 6 skill points, the only thing that costs 1 skill point is the Mastery of an Elite Profession.

Anyway, I think that it sucks we can not at least survey. Even if it's only for medical specific resources. But then it turns into a game balancing issue.
