So, why can you only get +75 Injury Treatment Speed at Master Medic and you can get +100 Wound Treatment Speed at Master Doctor? Shouldn't there be another +25 Injury Treatment Speed modifier at Master Medic?

I'm pretty sure master medics do have +100 to injury treatment speed:
Novice Medic: +5
Diag 1: +15 (20 total)
Diag 2: +15 (35)
Diag 3: +15 (50)
Diag 4: +25 (75)
Master Medic: +25 (100)
I'm not in game to verify this, but I'm 95% sure I've got it right.

I'm afraid he's quite correct, it is only +75 at master (master has +25 injury treatment, not speed). I'm not sure why this is, but lots of the other professions are riddles with numbers that don't add up to 100. Carbineer speed, Unarmed speed in the brawler profession just to name a couple. I don't really see any need for it to be any faster, or why it should be 100.

I stand corrected, and agree. It doesn't need to be any faster. Actually I don't think 100 was ever meant to ba a magic number on the skill mods. Even with Injury treatment speed being lower, damage healing is still much faster than wound healing, even for a master doc.

I think 100 is the magic benchmark number for sure. Calcs are usually done by (100 - mod ) / 100 or something like that. But to say that at master of any profession you should have 100 in a skill would be misguided. If the devs wanted us to be able to heal once every second they'd have given us +100 at master.

My favorite skill mod riddle is Master TKAs having +115 unarmed speed.
With the way the formula works, +100 guarantees you hit the speed cap regardless of weapon speed or special used. I think there were many cases in designing this game where the people who created the professions had no idea what the people writing the formulas were doing.
