Combat Medic numbers adjustment

Nice post, and great information, thank you

Hemorrhage seems to be working, but not useful unless its going to be a long fight, The action regen debuff is meh. Thyroid rupture doesnt seem to work at all, or it reduces the attack speed so little, its not worth using.

Something to take into consideration for Master Combat Medic dots as well is the tic time.

Commando DoTs are every 3 seconds iirc and mCM dots are every 10s - back when I tested it was 500 flat with the highest tier version of Poison, Fire, and Disease.

Poison and Fire doing health damage and Disease doing action damage.

So a potential of 1000 damage every 10 seconds.

Even just an adjustment to 6 seconds would be an improvement for balancing SP used for mCombat Medic healing & damage. Devs previosuly adjusted down that mobs do less absorption from fire and poison but given long global cooldowns for these skills and long DoT times, it usually ends up being better combat stacking.

I've noticed this on the attack speed debuff as well, especially fighting Krayt Dragons.

Disease actually wounds you, that's all. And yea you can barely notice the thyroid rupture debuff tbh. The numbers on the dots dmg i posted are really recent tested on TC. Lowering the time between dots tics would help too indeed

Gotcha - then yeah as long as they're Master Combat Medic and using the respective latest skills:

Advanced Infect
Viral Neurotoxin
Improved Deuterium Toss

I think for reference mCommando dots were 400 damage per 3 seconds probably the best part about commando. Even if mCM did 6 second dots, that would be a huge improvement.

When I was getting damage data it was flat without armor on normal mobs.

500 per 10 seconds.

On initial Advanced Infect it definitely does a 500 wound but flavour text for disease says action damage so it's a bit confusing - it may intend to do more wound damage but R3's wound cap might be at play there. Something else to consider for Advanced Infect usability - after it's first tic, it's already capped.
