Thread: /firstAid, does it need a stimpack?
I got my First Aid command last night and wounder if it works by itself or if I need some kind of med in order for it to work?
Thank you in advance for any information.
It may take a few applications to stop the bleeding though, since your /firstaid ability never gets any better.
As the others have said, no it doesn't require a stim. Though I think it'd be cool if there was a line of bleeding stimpaks that you could use to higher effect. So you could still use /firstaid without a stimpak, but maybe need to apply it 5 times, or if you had it, you could use a bleeding stimpak C and stop it with one shot. For those who think "How would a stimpak stop bleeding" I have a real, logical answer for you: in medicine, in Real Life, there are certain substances called "Coagulants". These substances have the property that they cause the blood to clot up faster, thereby reducing bleeding.
If you are in a bad accident, and the paramedics need to slow your bleeding, they will administer coagulents to you in the ambulance (I believe). Coagulent stimpaks makes sense to me.
Yes!Make it so that it requires some exotic resource from Rori and Krayth tissue while we are at it. Another pack to make our job even moreof an hassle. Way to go. 
However, I would like instead that at higher level, the firstaid becomes more efficient.
