Without medic you wont get effective TKA with Zabrak. The point of choosing Zabrak is their high mind pool regen that combined with medic profession keeps the health and action pool full.

I really haven't noticed any drawbacks to being a Zabrak Teras Kasi Artist.I do believe that taking a rank in medic will help you because you can drastically trim down your rest time with "tenddamage." If it is getting close to level time, I eat Fire Stew while resting and that boosts my constitution by 160+ so I'm well over 500. It's not as dramatic as it seems, but you will notice that the healing ticks are slightly faster with a boosted constitution. K-18 rations and exo protein wafers are good too.

So, the equalibrium Zabrakability is no good in combat? To me it would be.



Why join the Empire?Because chicks dig Stormtroopers!Watch Jedi flick!

Equlibrium is a life saver.

I'm a zabrak TKM and I don't think its a problem at all. Use /equilibrium or /vitalize, or you can use Neutron Pixie. Thats been a lifesaver for me.

with a really good stim and /equilibrium, it's like a complete heal to all 3 pools.

How did you handle the health regen? It seems to me, at a relatively low level, that the health regen for a zabrak, regardless of profession sucks. Without medic, did you find any ways to combat this? I tried stat migration, but 400 is the regen stat cap...

nah...


I love my Zabrak Melee. I say Melee, cause I am working on Master Brawler atm, but that's beside the point. the vitalize and equilibrium have saved my butt many times. Also, I finally bought armor. A full suit of Chitin with about 30% kinetic resist on every piece. I still take damage, but I can take on alot more now than I could before. When I rest, I just get naked and let it all hang out.



The cool air feels good. Help me think.

Being a Zabrak TKA is great. The high willpower lets me regen mind faster, and I can do more specials in a fight. That comes in handy doing missions in Endor with a group. I also have the equilibrium ability so when mind is almost at 0, but the healers have my health and action at full, I can equilize them and get another half a mind pool to continue the fight.


I am a novice medic and I do keep a backpack of Stim B's with me at all times. Sometimes, when I solo and am in a tough fight I heal myself 3 or 4 times. I am pretty hard to kill really. There is no down time for me at all. I just heal up and pull again. The experience flies by for me.


I admit, I just picked this race cause I liked the spikes! I didn't know that mind would be such a killer in group combats.Ithink you should choose the race you would enjoy playing the most as the game keeps changing a lot anyway.

To build on what was said...I am a Zabrak TKM. It works for me!



I am also a Doctor, but when grouping with my Combat Medic friend I don't even use Stims except on a fellow Melee who is in danger.

Honestly, no matter what race you choose, no matter what combat profession you are, novice medic will ALWAYS be the best 15 skill points you ever spend.


Look at it this way: A trandoshan sitting will regenerate 600 health points in around 1 minute. A zabrak novice medic can indefinately(or very close to it)heal 600 health AND action every 5 seconds. Also, you have the ability to heal others around you.
On top of the above, you can heal about 200 wounds every 20-30 seconds. This can help speed up personal wound healing very slightly(meditate, stand, healwound, meditate, etc.), or can help speed up the wound healing of those you are with tremendously.


Regardless of what combat profession you take, I HIGHLYrecommend you *MAKE* room for novice medic. This goes double for TKA's, due to the fact that we always take at least some damage in combat, and we have very high HAM costs(and mind is the only pool that can't quickly be regenerated, unless you're a zabrak)




Please nerf TKA's! I just one hit incap'd myself again with knockdown!

I had planned for no points into medic, and thats looking like that will not be a possibility anymore. It seems that without spicing, eating or medic...Zabrak have a tough time which really sucks because I think im going to have to reroll this character now.
