Doctor Archive

Hello everyone first post to these boards. Id like to just say SWG is awsome ! its a hell of a lot of fun. But i certainly have a problem... and that problem is... im the most indecisive person on the face of the **edit** earth. SWG having alot of things to do... is hard for me... soo i was wondering what would be a good Speices and profession combo... i really like the sound of the doctor mostly because im not smart enough to be one in real life and blood freaks me out ! but hey this is a game right. Soo i hear Doctor/carbineer is deicent i was wondering of any other nice completments to the doctor. I just want to have fun and eventually be deicent enough to hold my own in a PvP battle. Any imput would be greatly apreicated thank you.

Well reroller, Doctor/anything is usually a good combo...its like the ultimate complement to many combat professions because you can enhance your on statistics so much. Doctor/Carbineer is no exception, and would be an excellent choice.

Be warned however, there is a lot of crafting and resource gathering in the doctor profession, so be prepared to spend a bit of time on that.

Hope that helps...if you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Oh, and I would recommend Zabrak as a species choice, their abilities cant be beat

Hell ya, a buffed zabrak master doc is a scary thing to face in PvP, he could be a freakin pikeman and he's still scary

The only exception to the any ranged combat class/doc combo would be to exclude riflemen from the equation. Rifles burn the only pool you can't heal, mind. So stay away.

Master doc/TKA, lets you enhanceD, then have a dancer buff your mind and then /powerboost. Hello 5k ham. Best player tank in game. Carbineer/doc is also good, superior to doc/pistoleer IMO.

Remeber that if you can't make up your mind, try em all. It costs nuthin but xp to return your skills and there is no way to "win" this game so whats your hurry? Try a few combos.

I'd say if you are thinking of using healer with melee profession, then Doctor is definately way to go especially if you solo PvE alot.

If you want to combo with range, then Combat Medic(CM) is better option.

If you can only play few hours a day and would like to make some money selling stuff while you are not here, Doctor is good at that.

But if you engaged in PvP at all, then CM is only option.

Ofcourse if you really want to be a healer you can do both DOC/CM.

Don't let enhance make the decision for you since you can always get buffs and they last 2 hours, definately longer than how long your mission will last and if you like big group hunting you will always find doctor there and they often buff for free for group members.

Ilya...Im curious as to why you say CM is the only option.....as far as I can tell, with CM all you get is DoT poisons, which while good, need time to take effect...time in which you could be dead.

I havent played the class though, so I guess i could be missing something.

Yes, Ilya, I'd like to know why you feel that way as well.
