If you can get someone to tumble for you, they will burn up their action points and you can sit there and heal them for fast xps. I had a friend lose 30K xps in a server rollback a few weeks ago, so I tumbled for her to get back her xps.

Also, you can put a ton of stimpacks in your inventory then make a macro named healtumbler:


/healdamage;


/pause 10;


/m healtumber;



You can do master medic in about three hours this way if you macro the crafting.


Works for doc, too. You can do the non-crafting part of doctor in less than a day.


Make sure to get stim b's with the most charges you can find, and put them all in inventory at the same time. You may have to play with the pause time to make sure you're not trying to heal too fast, causing some of your heals to fail.

What I've found when getting medic/doc xp with a macro, it's not so much a question of healing too fast, it's about waiting long enough between heals so that you don't waste the stims. So in other words, if the person's only out 250 action points and your stims heal for 400, you wanna wait until you get a full heal on them. I found that waiting 10-13 seconds on the heal macro works the best. That's with a stim B, by the way. If you're talking Stim E's, then you need to wait even longer. However, you get more xp.


Where are you getting your numbers? What kind of uber-tumbler are you healing? It's not that I don't believe you, it's that I wanna be able to get Doctor that fast too. Just buying the ingredients for the crafting tree has broken my bank as it is.

Actually if your tumbler wears a full suit of armor to get their stamina and quickness to drop. They can drop an entire action bar in a few seconds. But what's better is to find a Master Dancer, they can drop action faster than any tumbler can by spamming flourishs and light shows.

I have ground doc three times now. The numbers I gave are from the last time I did it.


I had my merchant/musician (formerly master doc) learn ranged support 2 and just do /tumbletostanding over and over. He also did all the training of the aspiring doctor (he was a doc himself at the time and I wanted to switch my doctor char. from my alt to my main.) That eliminated all wait for training, which helped.


Tumbler wore a full suit of composite armor.


This equals out to 100-150 xp every 10 seconds or so for a full day, minus time for training.


800 xp per minute times 23 hours = about 1.1 million xp straight through (theoretically).



It takes 300k medical xp to get to 4440 doctor. A full 23 hour day should be generous.



I then had he trainee doc do the healing macro I described and viola! I played with the healing times a bit until they were optimal.


By "less than a day", I mean a reboot-to reboot day, about 23 clock hours, with the trainer right there (tumbling) and medic allready mastered.. Medic took literally 3 or 4 hours total. The medic crafting was very fast too with a simple ATK looping macro.


Your mileage may vary, but I have found this to be a very quick method of leveling doctor.


Key point. Buy ALL the stims you need at once and have them in your inventory. I found stim-b's to be optimal for the decay rate of the tumbler's stats.
