Kurugi Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Rolled a commando on a whim and wanted to go combat medic for pve and pvp. From what i keep reading though people make it sound like because of a simple animation (e.g. big green beam) combat medics are virtually unplayable in pvp and spend all their time either dieing or running back. Im sure this is an exaggeration (you know how much people on forums like to exaggerate ) but i cant help but consider other options. Was considering gunslinger but i dont want to onlybeable to dps. Smuggler sounds fun but ive tried an operative and didnt like the feel of having long range heals and melee attacks. Dont really wanna play as a Jedi either. Is combat medic really as frustrating to play in pvp as people make it seem? From my experience if youre a healer in pvp people will find out pretty quick no matter what.

Styxx Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 If you are half competent with your class.. ANY class... it makes no difference. Pick whatever you feel like playing, learn it.. and you`ll have loads of fun. Oh.. as long as you are self healing... it takes a lot of firepower to bring you down.. that`s firepower that`s not hitting your team`s DPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirorx Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) commando is fun, a heavy armor healer....what more can a rough neck combat medic ask for. As far as the green beam, dont worry about all that; any competent players will know heal no matter your class, your the guy in the back healing people. An on the reverse end, the incompetent players never seem to attack the healer anyway. Edited September 28, 2012 by kirorx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combat Medics are ridonkulous in pvp, especially when geared. They can continually spam heal themselves, they have decent dps output with the proper build, two of them can hold off almost an entire team from a node... Yeah, when they heal others they have a big giant green beam, so that's why PT/VG Pyro/AS's are the OP ones... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
