Thread: Non-transferable faction pets = doctor nerf

The doctor that groups with me owns 2 Storm Commandos and an AT-ST.


He earns almost no faction whatsoever. What he does is follow me around so that I can earn faction much faster, easier and safer. In return, he gets med XP from healing me and I buy him pets. I still come out ahead. (The AT-ST was something of a loan against future heals, cause I knew this nerf was coming.)


Anyway, doctors don't get faction points. They're too busy healing.


Since healing now gives combat XP, shouldn't it also give faction points in the same way?



Or are doctors not meant to be part of the GCW?

Well I agree with ya..


I hate going on raids or large groups, not to get any faction points. Went and took out a spawned AT-ST and didn't get 1 point off it, mainly because I don't think I got a chance to shoot at it. I was too busy reviving and healing people to get a shot off and the last thing I wanted anyway, was a reason for the thing to come after me.



But the whole faction point system is like that. Send a pet after a target you loose faction points. Solo it you get the max points. If I'm not mistaken CH has this problem as well, if they're pets are in there fighting, unless they get a shot off, no faction points.



That's why I solo my missions and rater do that then go with a group to run missions. I got 10x if not 100x the faction points solo as I do in a group, I have my pet out as backup, and never have them fight unless I'm desperate. And I'm tired of hearing, "but you'll get lots of xp" why do people say this to Masters? lol

Aye, the faction point issue needs to change to the same format as that of the combat XP.

I would actually heal more in battles if I got FP for healing. I do heal now and when in a smaller group we take turns DBing for FP. I think also that everyone who attacks an enemy should receive FP, not just the person who DB's them.
