For the first time yesterday I was able to play a different game than i have been.
I was taking the highest solo options available for dantooine which are the picket missions for 9.5k credits.
I never became incapped.
I used Doc buffs which last 3 hours, and i did the Muon Gold / Vasarian Brandy Route
With my self heal stim pack D / E macro.
I hada lot of funand stayed up a little too late.

Thats great, but I dont recommend starting threads or posting to threads like this b/c it turns into fuel for nerf callers. Just be happy with what you can do and dont draw attention to it hehe. With doc buffs tho you can pull off alot harder missions anyway, and I know myself I have pulled off incredibly well paying missions, with just boost and brandy no buffs whatsoever from docs.

Being a Master Doctor, I always use my own buffs. It's just simpler than hunting down someone else to buff for you. I may drop that template at some point, to experience another melee profession, but I can't be sure.
(I also need to fill Master Meditation and Master Balance before I become a TKM, but that's only about two hours of gameplay away.)
I find that with nice, average buffs (1500 or so), I can get away with using Vasarian brandy at an almost constant rate (As I tackle a nest/lair/area), and reusing that as necessary, and I have very few problems. I carry Muon Gold, but because of downer effects, and the short buff time, I use it as an emergency "heal", so I can boost mind and heal health at a moment's notice.
For armor, I currently use Ubese with a 70% kinetic resist, and something around 30% across the board. Sadly, this leaves me very vulnerable to long-range fire, energy weapons, or stun damage. Melee Damage Mitigation is wonderful, but it doesn't stop a Stormtrooper blaster from blowing a hole in my ass.
That having been said, I can tackle a LOT of PvE solo. Nightsisters are still a problem for me, as I find myself running into situations where I just get overwhelmed by force attacks and energy damage (swords as well), but creatures such as Rancors hold very little challenge unless encountered in groups of 3 or more.
Do I consider myself overpowered? Nope. There are times I feel invincible, but I concentrate my efforts on creatures that attack kinetically, and my armor is responsible for a lot of my wins. I understand that Damage Mitigation 3, and the accompanying bonuses at TKM offer a lot more options (no VKs for constant Special spamming, combat bonuses, etc), but I'll find that out when I get there.
