Thread: Should i drop doc?

Personally I would have used the token to drop pike and get at least TK 0/1/0/0 for improved COB.. +500 defense is really nice.
My currrent template is MSwords/TKM/Doc 4000. I think Doc is invaluable for almost any template. For instance, currently on phase 2 of the FS quests I'm attacking a bunch of sith camps. I'm reading on those boards that people are dying left and right while doing this. I've gone through these camps being aggroed by 4-5 level 76 siths with no problems. The combo of Sword damage, TKM COB and most importantly Doc heals have kept me alive and my health in most cases hasn't dropped below 50%.
Every template is a personal choice and I think just using stim D's will work fine in hunting groups, but if you have to solo anything not having some Doc skills is suicide IMO.
doctor is absolutly necesarry, BUT, not master doctor
4000 doctor can heal about 4/5ths of your health (occasionally)
and even with TKM and the +500 defence from improved CoB, though it is very helpful, you are NOT invincible, and doctor 4000 will heal you as much as you need (improved bacta shot - 1/3 - 4/5ths health heal, bacta jab - roughly 1/3 health heal, coming from a 3100 health perspective at level 80 zabrak)
BUT, im just talking if your going solo, if you are a groupie you can have doctors in your groups to heal you, and you can ALSO have level 60 CL requirement 1200 + stim Ds, though you cant frequently use these

yea i respected to mrifle/mdoc....i like the switch and i found that range is fairly enjoyable....but about the improved shot healing for 4/5 of my health (yes i am a cl80 zab so im also useing the 3100 as max health) im lucky to get 500 on my heals....this is kinda disapointing because you ive seen other threads saying i should be healing for 1500 or around that....thats a big diffrence? am i healing wrong or what? In combat i would useing use bacta infusion then alternate jab then shot to get me to full health...this seems to work deacent for me but i find that it takes a long time espically in the heat of battle....i found that my infusion healed for 72 every sec or so (approx in time) and the jab heals for approx 200...these numbers seem low to me? any thoughts on how i can get my healing efficency up to par?
