Thread: New Combat Medic terrain negotiation changes on TC
i was just on stratics, reading the blurb about what just went on TC today or soemthing.. "Combat medics have had terrain negotiation implemented into their skill trees so that they can keep up with the group".
I know that maybe in the future they are gonna make our TN much better than what its worth right now. I think its bad thatBH's and CH's can basically run as fast up hills as master rangers can, but combat meds i can pretty much agree with that change. however, if they are gonna let medics betraversing around equally as fast as us, im gonna have a problem 
it makes good sense for them to have limited TN, but they either need to make our TNway better or not give it to the CM until then. just my 2 cents, am I crazy or does anyone else agree/disagree? 
May I direct your attention to a previous thread regarding this.

Combat medics have terrain negotiation implemented so they can "kite" which is, throw poison and run shooting and not get run down because they CRRRRRAAAWLLLLL up a hill.
Ranger is a broken skill lets work on getting the class fixed and stop trying to drag everyone else down.
Terrain Negotiation, although one of our best skills and assets, the game is about groups over solo, and interdependance over being completely self reliant.
BH need TN because they travel all over the place to get to their mark. I was a BH (dropped it because missions were too boring and linear, plus the boards were very negative) I was a SL, and TN greatly helped out my squad.
The only thing I have to add, is that while TN for others is a good idea, for rangers they should make it something special, like increased overall speed, reduction of times between burst run, including a higher burst run speed, it should apply to swimming. We spend the most time out there in the wild, so we should be the best at it.
The others let them max out at 40 or 50..
EpocAmid, was your post agreeing or disagreeing? and i know what you mean by kiting... in my post i said i liked the CM change, so long as they make ourTN better first, thenits all good.. and yes i know bh's need it but they still shouldnt be cruisin as fast as us.
If anyone else gets a good TN, when we should get a proportional boost to what we can do over ALL terrain including water
