The squeaky wheels get the grease. Same as it ever was.

Not going to get into a big thing over it. I leave that drama long behind. It was a comment from my own observations, no more or less.

is "verklempt" german? I think that would be "verklemmt" :)

ah nope urban dictionary:
verklempt

buy verklempt mugs, tshirts and magnets
Verklempt - choked with emotion (German verklemmt = emotionally inhibited in a convulsive way)
This is not FAKE Yiddish - unless you are one of the linguists who consider Yiddish a "fake", i.e. non-transformational language.
OY, vey. When that schmuck of a doctor told me I had cancer I got all verklempt.

So, time to de-level the toon I just built and got to 38 because I wasted skill points in heal....

Only 1 healing kit per round, although I can use more than one potion in a round (which takes no skill points).

You can no longer hide while using a healing kit.

You have now made an item that took skill to use worse than an item (potion) that you need no skill to use. And heal kits were un-balanced why? You had to put skill points in it to use it effectively. Now we just have another useless skill in our list. Was this really necessary?

Pretty sure its one potion per round too. Heal kits were crazy overpowered... healing faster than you can take damage.

how is healing in stealth even an option or should be?

why should you be able to spam heal the kits contantly so you can't be killed?

heal skill still counts for something.

Also now that its scripted (Bioware's default healkit is hard-coded) we can customize it... if we decide healkits need a boost we can change it.

don't know about "crazy" overpowered. You had to take the skill points to get anything out of them. So, now I will never take the heal skill and just use potions. They are lighter anyways. Just turned a useful skill to a useless one

I promise it won't be useless... but do what you think is best.

?? Oh, so I might get something useful out of my heal skill now? Any idea what? If not, the de-leveling starts. Not wasting 5 books...
