Claypl Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Any reason to take medic early on? Always feel a bit scammed with that recruitment. Beyond obvious healing speed which can be cover later by B team or Larry which can be grab very early? Any important story point early on that require high med skill? I'm aware of Granny needing it and there are some mid game story points but is there anything early that I would be missing out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MateKiddleton Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Not early on. 40-50 med is more than sufficient, even in JA2 (medical skill also went up rapidly in JA2 compared to 3). Buns and Mouse are therefore great early picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melliores Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Nope, you can get by with 50 medical skill for First aid during combat. You will need 80+ skill later on for the Red Rabies quest line and possibly some other medical checks during quests. But nothing up to meeting and recruiting Larry.

Claypl Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 Thanks @Melliores. @sandman25dcsss Livewire is OP but I'm just so much over her after one playthrough, looking for alternatives. She get quite annoying after couple hours with her (would wish to have mute button like in multiplayer games just for her 😄 ) . I'm looking to building team around Raven and these two do not mash well .. Blood is killing machine and have reasonable med skills, I think that will be my pick.

sandman25dcsss Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I started a new run with Livewire, Blood and IMP. It will be interesting to see how much HP I will lose trying to touch loot defended by explosive trap 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claypl Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 Uh why no explosive expert ? Your budget team can accommodate one more merc easily. Some sort of challenge run, how long you can stay alive without explosive expert?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claypl Posted August 3, 2023 Author Share Posted August 3, 2023 And no hiring after Ernie village money boost? I prefer to have 4/5 people right from start to go through opening maps super fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably I will hire Red later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
