Doctor Archive

Seems like everyone I run into on Starsider has the Master Doctor tag on. I did a doctor search on Coronet and found 13 docs in the city, 6 of which were masters. I immediately logged off Starsider and logged on to Sunrunner. The same search produced 2 doctors, both novices. And they were part of an Imperial raiding party.

How many docs we have from Starsider? /raise hand

And has anyone else experienced a lack of MD's on their servers?

Not master yet, but almost. I, however, am not into hunting, so doctor/merch seemed a nice combo for me so that I dont have to fall into the hunter/killer grind that I have been forced into in past MMOGs.

I do agree that it seems almost everyone on Starsider has at least an array of medic skills, if not basic doctor skills. I rarely run into someone that cant heal themselves, regardless of how effectively. Also, I maxed my app points primarily teaching medic skills before I was a 1/1/1/1 doctor.

My concerns about healing are not that great, since you cant really be a master doctor and a great hunter at the same time and I still find my enhancement and greater healing ability is still a useful skill. Also, not everyone wants to run to the 4 points of the galaxy like I do looking for quality components to make the best meds.

I think, while we do have an abundance of doctors and master medics on Starsider, it will evolve as doctor skills get in the way of peoples desire to become better at a combat profession.

Ill bet you anything Im one of the oldest ones on Starsider... must have been a master for at least three months. and soon to be retiring.

Come to Eclipse...we are short on doctors....have plenty of combat medics...but not enough doctors in my opinion

I don't know how many Master Doctors there are on the Kettemoor server. I Have a few on my friends list a couple in the PA. I don't see many of them when I go hunting. I do, however, see a lot of Master CMs and now with the mind healing I am sure there will be more. I love being a doctor.

I agree that Eclipse seems to be lacking in master doctors for some strange reason I can't comprehend. I swear by my buffs. I feel naked without them, and I can't understand how people fight (in both pvp and pve) without a full set of buffs going.

Definitely a big surge in master CM's the last few weeks. I used to never see master CM's and now I see them running around quite often.

I must say, that I see way too many Doctors on Starsider these days. I've been a Master Doctor since the 3rd week of the game, I'm proud of that, but I just don't feel all that proud anymore now that every other person I know is a Doc. The XP is easy to get, apart from Crafting, I believe that the Medical XP requirements should be brought in-line with Crafting XP, instead of the other way round, if they do change the XP requirement.s

I remember in the first 2 months of the game when Doctors were pretty rare to see, and you could make a good living but as of late, I just goto an Advanced Planet, have a few Enhances on me, and see another Doctor buffing, so I lose out and have next-to-no cash on me.

It does get rather annoying, maybe the Devs should try and make Doc a bit harder, I've been wanting that for a while, I mean, it took me only a week to actually hit MD, and although it was great then, I just feel that it was too quick, and all I was doing was wound healing in the Moenia Med Centre.

I've been a MD on SS for 2+ months now, but I don't really have the time anymore to run around Coronet buffing people (not to mention mine aren't the best), so I mainly just do things with my PA instead. You have to admit though, because of buffing, (master) doctors are really profitable...especially if you get those high enhances that everyone seems to love. I did actually think that being a MD was somewhat special, but now of course it doesn't feel like it.

I've been a Master Doc on Starsider since the very beginning. I got it as fast as I could from day 1. There used to be VERY few of us, and I knew almost all the Doctors on Corellia, but there has been an explosion in recent months. I think the Holocrons are having some effect, along with other changes which makes having a Doctor around more critical (namely Poison and Disease). It's tough to hunt Kamuriths without a Doctor, and that seems to be the most popular way of making credits at the moment.
