Ok, i've found that there is ABSOLUTELY NO decrease in time between wound packs from Diagnostics 2 to Diagnostics 4. What a waste, the +25 then +25 more injury treatment speed is worthless? I just don't get it! shouldn't i be faster? I've seen no increase, either way it still takes me 24 seconds between healing wounds... i don't get it.

So is diagnostics just as worthless as pharm now?
I know i'm ranting, but i was so let down by finding out i healed up for nothing...

Diagnose does not decrees the time it takes to heal wounds, that would require a Doctor skill. Diagnose does decrees the time it takes to heal damage (not wounds) with a stim pack. Though it should still be noted that this does not decrees the time that it takes to heal your own damage, just others.

A novice medic can use a stim b every 10 seconds.

A medic with master diagnostics can use stims every 5 seconds.

As pointed out, diagnostics do not decrease wound treatment speed, just the speed that you can use stimpacks. You will need to go up the doctor line to get wound treatment speed.

hehe, color me stupid. i didn't realize that...! thanx guys!
i haven't used many stims lately because they provide such low XP compared to wound packs, that explains everything.

Peyoan, it depends on the Stim. When I decided to go for CM, I could get about 500 med xp per heal, and this was AFTER the pet-healing nerf. I know you can get that easily with a woundpack, heck I can get 2k in one shot from wound healing, but its more constant so you can get more xp. Think about it...lets say you have no Diagnostics, you will heal every 10s. Now, you could get 500xp every 10 seconds, so thats 3k a minute. I know that will not happen, but at those figures, you can get more xp from damage healing.

My advice, is go out with a group to Lok/Endor/Dathomir/Yavin 4/Dantooine and heal the damage their. You'll come back with a heck of a lot of med xp.
