Medic Archive

I'm a CH who really needed to take up medic in order to cope with the pet regen, or rather, lack thereof. For skill point reasons, I'll have to drop the whole artisan profession soon, and I'm wondering if artisan experimentation and assembly affects Stim crafting (artisan experimentation gained through either the Domestic Arts or Engineering disciplines).

I need to know if I'm going to become less effective as a medic.

Medicine Crafting is a completely seperate skill line. None of the artisan crafting skills translate directly and, if you are human, you won't get any extra experimentation points.

Of course if you are worried about making your own meds, instead of just buying them off of some other Doc/CM/Medic, then you'll probably kick yourself for dumping Artisan anyway, since you'll still need some of the survey capabilities to get resources if you want to get anything decent for medical purposes. Personally I'd reccomend you find a good medical supplier, though, and ust not worry about the crafting of meds.

Ooh, a response from the correspondent

Getting resources shouldn't be a problem. I can just buy them, maybe beggar them if necessary. I have a few friends who are quite charitable in that respect.
