Thread: Medical Droids defeat the purpose of Med Centers and Camps
I'm a Master Doctor and I'm calling for a Medical Droid Revamp
medical centers and camps are useless and so is high level wound medication.
I can heal all wounds easily at master with C' level wound medication D's and E's are overkill and expensive to use.
All medical Droids should be 50% of a Med center and A HTFB (high tech field base)
Med Centers should be 150 rating HTFB 150 med rating and reg Field base should be 110
The BEST droid would be 75.
If you are a good doctor with good wound medication healing wounds in the field wouldnt be a problem and would give use back to those wound E's.
It would give use back to Camps since they are now 90% useless (tell me why you need one I dare you)
There are a billion player cities and NPC cities you could hand around and buff in.
Entertainers are screwed and anchored to Cantinas why shouldnt we depend more on Med centers for buffing?
Wanna Buff in the field? You better find a Master Ranger.
Why would you then need a 75 max rated medical droid at all then?
To heal field wounds and apply emergency buffs.
(Why do you need a 110 med droid now? So you can buff on the move?)
Entertainers don't get a droid that lets them heal BF on the move....
Why are we (doctors)so spoiled?
NERFing medical droids helps A LOT of people and brings the intended uses back to Camps and Medical centers and high end medicines. (you will need high end meds to compensate for a 75 power droid)
And with the droid invasion coming, a droid will get more useful even with this medical nerf. (they fix data storage yet?, I need that! 
So it's not gonna hurt DE sales, they will go up regardless because of the droid invasionand you will still need a droid to heal wounds in the field and to buff, albeit on an emergency only basis.

uhm, do you understand the med droid is basically the ONLY thing useful we have to sell? and since it doesn't really decay there are no repeat sells? **edit**

Nerf the probot, nerf the med droid, nerf the storage....
Just take DE out of the damn game... we're WAY to overpowered.
Hmmm.... Doc here, have been Medic -->Doc since June 30, 2003. Have not been without a droid since they became available and wouldseriously rethinkthe profession without one. From this Doc's point of view, dancers and entertainers arent running within 7m of the Krayt/Kimo to rezz/stim group members. Yes they may be limited to cantinas. Im sorry. Take away my droid .... well ... Im going to hush so as not tocommit majorflaming ofthe original poster.
Now, from the point of view ofmy alt who is finishing up Artisan and "was" interested in DE (I've not posted here just lurked while trying to make a decision) ...well.... Im going to bite my tongue as far as a response to the original post.
I see you guys are just over sensitive because you have been rammed up yer droid modules since day one.
You wont admit I'm right you just are focusing on how much your professions sucks as a whole.
When I say medical droids are killing Camps and medical centers and ruining OTHER professions, you don't mind, as long as it's not yours.
YOU'RE GETTING A WHOLE F00Khin PUBLISH AIMED AT YOUR PROFFESSION!
Your correspondant knows I'm right, but I also agree with you guys that medical droids are all you have, so let me rephrase it.
Nerf Medical Droid usage AFTER they fix all your other broken shiiit because you know damm well they are unbalanced versus camps and medical centers...
Stop flaming me, I dare you to try and tell me my points are wrong.
That would take BRAINS
It sucks to be a DE, I agree. Having been a master CM and master Doctor both, I understand her point though. There is a problem in the medical professions where you really don't need any med beyond a level B if its made with advanced components.
I actually called for the nerf of stim and woundpak b's in the doctor and medic forums about 2 months ago.
What this poster has proposed, is actually an easy fix to a large portion of the problem with meds. Allbeit, another dagger in the DE's back.
