Robes-Pierre Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I love my rakata stims and adrenals but the medpak is a joke. Doesn't heal me at all. Is this still the best medpak (ie heals for the most) I know it was needed but its useless now. Is there a pal that will heal for more? I don't care about the bonus hp it gives I just want the biggest heal. If rakata is the best then the entire biochem medpak section is useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remulan Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 If you RE the lvl 48 green medpack to blue quality it gives an initial heal that is the same as rakata, but adds a hot that heals for about 2k more over 15s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Yet everyone still QQ's about Biochem being overpowered lol, the best medpacks in the game are the blues.

Robes-Pierre Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 So it isn't even reusable? That's so stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thebigkabooa Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 15% increased maximum health is effectivevely an average of 2250 heal, assuming it works the same as the "Last Stand" mechanics on tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CivicTiger Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 15% increased maximum health is effectivevely an average of 2250 heal, assuming it works the same as the "Last Stand" mechanics on tanks. if you're at 90% and heal 4k back to around 98% that extra 15% increase health is pretty much useless.. since you dont reach 100% let alone 115%. It's probably good to use the medpack for a HP boost before a 1 on 1 fight but i'd still chose the HoT anyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most classes has some such skill that they can get a small heal from. ie) Kolto Overload for a BH. Rataka medpack is a heal +15% health, Kolto Overload is 15% health over 10 sec. stacks PERFECTLY! 15% health for 15 sec when needed >>>> an extra amount healed. Anyone not capable of seeing this should just quit now. Edited March 1, 2012 by WutsInAName Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want the biggest reusable heal so in a fight i can heal and continue to dps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main issue with the blue level 48 medpacks is that it takes 17 ingredients and that makes it not very cost effective at the moment. They need to adjust that to maybe 12 or 13 ingredients. That's probably why you don't see many for sale, or if they are for sale it's for a ton of credits. Edited March 1, 2012 by Thundergulch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might not see the benefit out of it, but I bet your healers love it. If your complaining that in a 1v1 situation it is not top, "well then good news". you will VERY RARELY run into any 1v1 situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zBlammo Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 yes, I've noticed the same thing. The upgrade from prototype to reusable for the "Ultimate Medpack" isn't an upgrade at all. The prototype heals instantly, and another shot over time.. the reusable instantly, and nothing over time. Ultimate Medpack - 3750 to 4575 health (90s cooldown) Prototype Ultimate Medpack - 3750 to 4575 health and additional 1665 over 15 seconds (90s cooldown) Reusable Ultimate Medpack - 3750 to 4575 health (90s cooldown) /bugged. The squad recovery med unit has the same problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robes-Pierre Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 News flash. I merely said 1v1 because it was easier than saying all the permeatations of a 8v8 wz. As mepaks are not limited by the fight you are in the biggest healing pak will be just that whether its 1v1 1v3 6v2 8v1 whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robes-Pierre Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 I already have a reusable ultimate medpak. But theheal isn't as big as rakata. So to get back on topic... the rakata medpak has the highest heal for all reusable medpaks? Meaning the medpak tab of biochem should just be ignored.

If you just did biochem at 50 I suppose i can see ya missing that. Working as intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purchasing the diplo mats, I can tell you first thand that the expensive for a consumable seems askew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remulan Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Since you lose 15% of your health once the effect wears off it is basically worthless to anyone but tanks and healers situationally. The lvl 48 blue is far superior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
