What EGO/Weapon combo will you use?

Some of you are so intolerant to other people's playstyles... If someone comes in and decides to only heal, I use that as an opportunity to experiment and play in a different way that may get me killed normally.

People should just play how they want, not how other people tell them to...

From the live streams *coughs* it looks like the shields heal up very fast anyway, until a medic actually reacts and starts to try to heal you up your shield will recharge itself if you have enough common sense to get out of the line of fire for a few seconds. Overall I think if you just kill the stuff faster you will be better off..

The second I notice a person who heals non-stop in co-op instance instead of shooting - I exit instance because it will be much faster to finish next instance:

let's say it takes 20 minutes to finish instance when 4 persons shoot stuff (3 millions hitpoints total / 4 = 750k points of damage per player);

for 3+1 it will take ~27 minutes to finish (3 mil / 3 = 1mil per player, 33% more time = +7 minutes);

by exiting instance 1 minute after beginning and waiting for +1 minute to enter new instance I'll save 5 minutes.

Tl;DR dedicated medic = abuse in PvE.

You're math is wrong. Medics reduce chance of death, from what I've seen from NDA braking vids Instances are very difficult so expect to add on 12 more minutes to an instance with everyone dieing due to no full time healer.

Well as you can clearly see, he is not talking about vids but about his own experience. If he is supposed to do so is a different topic.

it is a heavy discussion the healer can still shoot his gun at the bad guys, right, there isn't like a true white mage character to select

I'm pretty much tolerant. People may play "doctor" if they wish - just I won't carry them through instances.

You will be surprised to see how many players won't shoot and just heal pretending they are useful. At least until they find out people leave instances because of them.

A guild medic in this game does not mean you should just heal, you need to be shooting as well....I plan on taking decoy and the perks all for one, self medicated, combat medic, samaritan and than work my way over to overcharge....when one of the team goes down I will be the one to get him up.....That's what being a medic in this game will be you will still be a shooter, just not the primary.

100% healing is a waste of time imo. Combat Medics are the best type for this particular kind of game (those that fight but heal when necessary), but I won't dis or hate on those that want to only heal unless that particular person actually gets us killed. If they pull it off without causing us all harm then I say let them play how they want.
