Medic Guide

[straywolf]

My guide...
1. Play the role. Be aggressive in reviving team mates.
2. Revive only when clear.
3. Check radar screen to see situation.
4. Only waste your time on peeps that are nearby and on the same level...roofs are BAD. :thatsbad:
5. Throw med packs around. Place them against walls and in corners where team mates will usually hide when hit hard.
6. Stay with your squad (if possible). Try to respawn on SL.
7. Go prone when reviving.
8. Use vehicles to get to "hot spots" quickly. Think of it as an ambulance.
9. Use sprint wisely. Its not just about getting to the fallen soldier...its also about running away from the gunfire that you WILL DRAW.
10. Remember...a DEAD MEDIC is a USELESS MEDIC. Keep yourself alive and revive wisely.

Don't forget that if you are in really close range, those shock paddles instantly kill... :P

Where should the defibrillators be used on a person? I've been playing more as a medic lately but sometimes instead of one try it takes two or three to the chest.

If its direct and you are close enough they should go down right away.

Smack um in the head with the paddle

this is also COMPLETLEY NESSICARY for assault, as they have no tank killers.

yes for heavy armor but 2 shots from a grenade launcher to the back of an apc will blow its ass up..


nice tips, i find myself using them all the time in battle :)

i always found the ak101 better than the m16... but then again i am a very aggressive medic. i usually sprint to a victim, prone, revive, and sprint away... usually with only getting hit about once.

[Slayter_Maximus]

The M16 if used correctly can be a 1-2 of the 3 burst to kill thats two good controlled clicks of the mouse. (Headshot, and Leg Shots)

Although they HAVE to be damaged already before you start, the GL does a good part of damage.

And using your entire surplus of GL ammo on an APC with nice hits WILL take it out.

10. Randomly throw med-kits at bottle necks, or fence openings etc.

I would try to hide them in bushes or somewhere the enemy wouldnt notice them if possible, your team will still notice its avatar

yeah thats alot better than putting them in the open

- If you are going for an important revive in the open amongst the crossfire, run out holding a medkit, switch to defibrilator, do the revive, switch back to medkit and drop one, then sprint back to cover (keep holding medkit).
This way you will keep your health up if you get hit on the way in or out, and give the guy you just revived a medkit while he gets re-orientated. This one must really annoy the snipers, they keep hitting, but don't get a kill...

- If you are hiding behind a building, crate etc, say defending a point and enemy infantry come in to take the flag, drop a medkit behind your cover, run out with your gun blazing (or creep out and snipe if they haven't seen you). Once your health is half way down or you empty your clip, run back (reloading) to your cover and medkit, and then repeat the process. Enemies with assault guns might have a better weapon and heavy armour, but you can always chip away at them slowly...

- Use your medkit as a mini parachute. For long drops, of course use your parachute, but for medium heights, drop a medkit on the ground where you will land, keep the medkit equipped, go prone and slide/land onto the medkit you put on the ground. Good for getting down steep hills.
The most amusing way I have used this in combat is when someone is chasing you, you climb up a ladder onto a building, medic-jump off behind them and shoot them in the arse as they are climbing up the ladder after you.

- Drop a medkit beside anyone who looks like they are hanging around a flag or vantage point in defence. eg. drop medkit on the sniper on top of the building. Chances are they will need it sooner or later. (This really comes under rule number 1... do your job!)

LoL. That is a good one. Not sure how often this will come up, though (I would probably just shoot you rather than climbing up behind you).

I just got a couple of things to say,

1: If a teammate has been sniped, and you know there is a fairly good sniper working in the area, do you still go for the revive, and inevitably medics stand still for a bit, esp if it takes 2 or 3 goes to rev (headshot anyone??)? I'm curious for opinions on this, because with a good sniper with a good field of view it can almost fall into the same category as revving infront of a tank, cant it?

2: As for 2, i completely forgot what i was about to say, i'll try and remember it.
I remember now. I apologise to anybody that i dont instantly thank for revving me. I WILL thank you for putting your neck on the line for me, but first, id prefer to get the hell out of dodge! So when i go sprinting off, please do the same!!!!! i will thank you.
