Thread: Use for /boostMorale

Last night I was on a guild hunt to clear out the Nightsister caves on Dathomir. After a little while, everyone had some pretty extensive wounds from all the force abilities, and of course our CM was all tore up from the mind heals.

I noticed I had 4 people meditating in the group. After a quick conversation, they mentioned they can heal their own wounds, all of them. So I tried a quick experiment, and did a /boostMorale. It hurt, hurt bad.

But the TKA's all went back to meditating, and soon they were healed of wounds. Then I did another /boostMorale, and they all went back to meditating. After 4 or 5 /boostMorale's, the entire group was under 50 wounds. I'm pretty sure I could have gotten it down to single digits if I had done it a few more times, but we got bored and decided to continue on.

Has anyone else thought of using boostMorale with TKA's in this manner? It's almost an exploit, but it is all game mechanics functioning as intended.... Instead of spreading the wounds, I can very slowly heal the entire group's wounds.

I have used something similar to heal mind wounds for our doctor. After any really good series of combats, he ends up with a large number of mind wounds.

Using /boostmorale, I can spread those wounds among the group, then the entertainers can clean up the whole group very quickly, as opposed to working on one person for a long time.

Also useful if you have a few people sitting in a medlab and no doctor handy...

It is an old tactic, just depends on your circumstances. Some people will yell to no end when they have to take wounds, even if it is just 5. Good in camps too, if your squad is taking a break and there is some disease damage.

Although I tend to have the worst wounds because I never get healed, but hey what do I need HAM for anyway?

I am a TKM + SL and I use this ability now. I don't know if this is related or not but, I also happen to be a wookie and the cost to me for using the skill is negligable. I can just about spam it without worry of adverse effects and so far it has not failed me once. Perhaps using SL skills with armor on is hurting many of you? I don't know, can't wear the stuff. I have also max'd my mind stats (all 3) and maybe that has something to do with it.


Anyway, I spread the wounds of my group and heal them on my own when we stop to rest, it works great and I can take out a entire groups wounds very quickly...at least to where people only have a fewsmall ones left...and we get right back to hunting. I would think that a couple TKA's with Meditate 4 would make this skill very powerful indeed.

I think its a wookie thing LOL i am a human with high secondary stats not maxed but high I never wore armor when I was going to be using SL abilities. I could drain my mind down to nothing in a few clicks if i wasn't careful It might be worth looking into maybe as a TKM you have a faster regen rate or possibly as a wookiee and can recover faster.
