Instructional info
MedPacks:
Medics should equip MedPacks and drop them near your wounded teammates or near teammates calling for health which is displayed on the mini map. When your teammates walk over a MedPack a fraction of their health will be restored. Drop as many MedPacks as you can but keep in mind you can only drop as many Packs as your Medic energy allows. As the Medic energy replenishes you will be able drop more MedPacks. It’s recommended that the
Medic assist in the battle or revive teammates while his Medic energy is replenishing.
Defibrillators:
To use the Defibrillators approach a fallen teammate calling for assistance (these teammates will be laying on their back helplessly reaching for you) once close enough an icon will appear prompting revive. Use the Use Key ("Default F") to select the defibrillators or select the defibrillators manually from your weapon list and press the Use Key ("Default F") again to revive the teammate. Dropping some MedPacks to fully heal your revived teammates is recommended.
Supply Drop:
The Medic’s Supply Drop Marker calls in an air-dropped crate which will dispense Health and Ammo packs to any GDF player who uses it. The Supply Drop Marker is a powerful asset, particularly when defending an Objective. Make sure you throw it somewhere all your teammates will be able to see it and make use of it.
Unique Medic Ability:
Medics can also destroy Strogg Spawn Hosts with their Defibrillators. If you don’t want the Strogg to spawn from your fallen comrades, destroy the Spawn Hosts without delay.
Grenades:
- All grenades can be thrown slightly further by holding down the Fire key [Mouse1 Default].
- GDF Grenades can be lobbed a shorter distance by hitting Alt-Fire [Mouse2 Default].
- You can also use your grenades to harmlessly explode enemy mines.
