Problem #1: No more master medics due to the fact that it was no longer a requirement for doctor or CM, and the master medic box held only a +20 healing efficiency skill which increaed heals by aproximately ... 10 points. And a +20 augmentation efficiecnyc mod which lengthened buffs by aproximately 30 seconds.

Problem #2: Bioengineers are crafters, not combatants, and as such very few of them are doing the senses skills, or the village at all.

Promlem #3: Bioengineers are crafters, and as such have absolutely zero use for the rest of hte medic tree. I have not seen or heard of, nor do i know anyone who has heard of, a master medic / Bioengineer

These three factors add up to one very big problem:

No one, unless they have respecs left, is able to complete this quest without seriously sacrificing their character's template.

It is very evident that the village was neglected in the CU. Our boxes still contain skills with no use, and our quests are very badly bugged.

I do not consider this present situation a bug so much as a very serious issue. That said, i'm not really here to whine and complain, just to share the difficulty with which i'm now faced. I've dropped 2 master boxes, at the cost of having to regrind over 2 million experience in the near future, just so i could pick up master medic, and i STILL am in search of a bioengineer with village access who can help me with this quest.

It has been suggested that people give the schematics to a non FSBE to construct the meds. I will dispell this rumor immediately by saying the schematic is not tradable.

I play on corbantis, and my IGN is Alyssa. I know a lot of people on the server, and i'm a very social character. I am(was) a master dancer/master doctor... I need help

I think you've left out one MAJOR issue with this quest dude....

What in the name of all that is holy does curing the sick have to do with Persuasion? I defy ANYONE to give me a realistic answer here. Its almost like someone put together a long involved quest thatthey couldn't fit anywhere else, so they just dropped it... .any old place.

I'm not complaining about having to do the grind, or buy the droid and resources, or trying to track down a BE... my issue is WHAT I am expected to grind. There are SO MANY OTHER PROFESSIONS that have legitimate and obvious links to a skill titled "Persuasion" (Smugglers, Merchants, and Entertainers, Politicians, etc).

This is probably the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen in a video game, and I was around to actually play "Pong" on a Fairchild (the FIRST home game system, before atari, etc) back in the late 70's. For me to be able to say that this has to be the unquestioned champion is a HUGE statement.

I'd stop wondering about the brutaly stupid construction of the quest and START wondering what exatly the devs are hallucinating on... and where the rest of us can get some.

No, its not.

Novice Artisan - 15SP, 100 credits and zero time/effort

Master Medic / 0004 BE - 126SP, several hundred thousand credits in training and grind materials, and 2 days solid clicking. Not to mention at least another 8-10 hours of mindless gopher-whacking on Dantooine

Do the math.

Welp.. i did the math *ugh* and I got myself some BE skills and sacrificed my template to be able to craft these meds....

I am now offering packs of meds for sale to those whowant them. Check the corbantis trade forum.
