Hello here bandeide here, and i see that the medic class is very little used and require some buff.
the first point is to allow more easy to put they in squads, since most squads don’t have a medic slot in the squad upgrades. make where is a assaulter option a medic option has well.
the second is that soldiers must go drowned whit or without med kits in they inventory. since you don.t need a medic if you have the means to use a med kit in your own. So by making all soldiers get drowned whit or without med kits will make medics more useful.
and finaly, a medic special ability to carry a extra med kit, unlocked has final personal upgrade. Will help medic to stay alive more, and heal the squad has well.
cheers.

Medics should automatically heal all injured soilders with 20m of the player and all bots should automatically take a medkit from the box when they pass or are near.
I have a few more suggestions in this thread: Small Medic improvements

i would make a order to bot,s pick up med kits when pressed X in the med box.
plus, medic should heal soldiers when they are out med kits, will do nice to.

This would be a good idea, however Enlisted bots have the IQ of a 3 year old, so I doubt they can be trained to retrieve a med kit.
Hell, I can’t even get them to go inside a trench when your in the trench facing straight down pounding the X button, they prefer to just stand outside the trench making themselves easy cannon fodder.

I’d really love to see the medic class get some love and some QOL that’d go a long way. A general improvement of medic bots in their ability to heal nearby soldiers and to immediately prioritise reviving injured soldiers.
It’s be amazing if bots within a certain proximity, and if they’re not actively engaged in combat, they’ll grab an extra medkit.

Guys, i would like to make more discussion around Medics, maybe those ideas that will come in this reply might send a bit OP.
-------------------------------------------- BOT grab Med Kit Order ------------------------------------------
In order to make you squad grab med kits, just press X move order in the med kit, and they automatic grab med Kits.
since BOT,s die very very easy. a plus one Med kit will be not OP, and in case the Squad is injured, this is a quick way to heal everybody in the same time. since most squads structures only have one medic, this type of order will be done only one time.
------------------------------------------- Medic Tier II --------------------------------------------------------------
A Second Medic Squad around Tier 3, since the second assaulter comes in Tier 4. will do nice. since medic perks take considerable Perk Points,
i would like to place a REAL shotgun in my soviet Tier II medics, i will be nice a shotgun for Germany/Italy.
i don’t think we need medic Tier III, because medics are support soldiers. they are there to heal people, and not focused in combat like assaulters. depending of how much we buff the ability to medics heal, it would be wise to allow they only to use SMG and not Assault Rifles.
cheers.

These suggestions aren’t bad but they definitely won’t make the medic class “good”. Medics will probably never be actually good unless they receive a battlefield style corpse reanimation ability. In which case they may become more valuable than engineers. But I doubt something like that would ever be implemented. Nor should it until the many bugs and issues are fixed first.

I think some of these suggestions could help medics become very competitive xp earners who also help the team. For example a squad of 5 medics could enter a point full of a few injured allies and automatically heal them giving you alot of xp and your team health.

Are you thinking an “aura” or an automatic heal radius? Because the bots already auto heal. They’re just not very efficient. And with a AOE radius, though completely unrealistic, it would definitely make medics better. Or even just adding this feature to the droppable medic box would see their effectiveness go way up.
Don’t hate the idea at all. Still not sure it would make them “good”. Just better.

yeah, medics need automated healing abilities that dont force you to run focus on healing yourself (its already possible with large backpacks & 4 medkits on all soldiers) and they need to have a tier3 version with strong perks. preferably very high green values and starting +10% movement speed, as being fast while healing is very much needed.

Definitely not, I ment that if your with 20m ish of a injured soilder then medic bots should automatically help.

Yeah they definitely don’t go out of their way to heal. Have to be right next to them before they top you up.
Would be cool if they actively tried to heal. Though they would probably just die more often than not in the attempt.

a Tier II will do fine, IF AND ONLY IF.
they reduce the cost of medic only perks to 1 skill point or maximun 2 skill points.
after all, they need basic perks to be effective fighters has well. this is another way to buff the medics has well. has long we keep the ideia of a Tier II medic.

Why not make the medic box something like bf1 medic box? Like, you get healed gradually if you’re near one, then maybe after a while the box gets empty. I think it would be way more useful than just replenishing your medkits.
