Was this directed at me? Don't get me wrong, I understand the class can kill, but that is NOT it's purpose, or at least that is what I've been told.Jons Return wrote:Not all medics just sit and heal ppls! With over 150 Db I spend a lot of time pumping out bullets from the MP5 onto the bigger monsters. I think you'll find medics fit into their place in the monster food chain :P
It is an easy class to play, with the ability to heal yourself and others, using MP5 rockets mostly. On luci, you can straight away have an inf link (though that means you have to be careful not to get slithed cuz u can't re-heal), and it is a useful class to me. I have adrenal drip lvl 1 and it serves me well enough. I have an inf mp5 within 20 secs of spawning.
CONCLUSION: Don't diss medics just diss BAD ones xD
Lol, I pioneered the "Warrior Medic". People thought I was crazy, I had no monsters, no experienced healing, max health, damage reduction, advanced damage reduction, and all the combat skills a medic could buy, by level 175. I hit a brick wall around 250 as I ran out of things to buy. But before I settled on a final build, I probably reset it about 6-7 times trying different configurations. I studied the class and finally I got it to the point where I was out there EVERY wave.
I know what the class is/was capable of. I even wrote a medic guide which probably doesn't even apply anymore as it's rather outdated, that you can find somewhere in the MM forums. Anyways, the server started changing and I found that a lot of the tactics and methods I used no longer applied and I stopped playing it. I had my character rebuilt and geared it up for the more generic summoner/healer and left it, as now it had more of a purpose with the new artifacts.
That being said, MM is an RPG, which stands for more than building up characters levels. It's a Role playing game. Medics have a role. Heal and protect. It's a support class, geared to survive and help others survive, but not necessarily kill. If you want raw pwnage power, just try an adren master. It has a role too, tank. It's my preference for raw pwnage, mainly cause I'm too lazy to level up a WM anymore.
