I have achieved First Aid IV, Diagnosis III, Pharmacology III,and Organic Chemistry IV. According to my listed schematics I can make Stimpack C's. I have created 3 such stimpacks. However, when I try to use them, I receive a message that says I am not skilled sufficiently to use Stimpack C's. There is also a statement similar to Medic Skill 30/34. Does anyone know what requirements I must fulfill to use the stimpacks which I make?

You need pharmacology IV to use them.

The problem is that stimpack C's require a 32 in medicine use. At Pharm III you have 30. When you make your C's you need to experiment on the medicine use to bring the use down to 30 or lower. Granted, this doesn't always work and you may need to play with the resources, but I have made quite a few C's that I can use with a 30 in medicine use.

Thank you very much. That answers my question perfectly. I guess I'll be sitting in the med-center again tonight to get that Pharm IV. Thanks.

I was in the same boat as you with Pharm 3 and Org Chem 4. I was able to successfully experiment 80% of the Stim-C's I made down to 30 usage, often with a point or 2 left over for experimenting on effectiveness. This was with fairly mediocre material (and pre-patch so the quality was hurt further by having the bogus potency requirement). I just stuck the ones that I didn't get down to 30 usgae in my safety deposit box for later usage.

What about stim B? What skills do I need?

You need a medicine skill of 5 (Novice Medic) for stim B, thats why its the most popular.

Novice Med is 5, PharmI is 10, PharmII is 20, PharmIII is 30, PharmIV is 40, and Master Med is 50.

Stim A's and B's require use 5, C's require use 32 but can be experimented down to 30, and D's require 42, but can be experimented down to 40.

Anyone know off the top of their head what the base Medical Use skill level is with Pharm IV? I know III is 30, so what 35?
