The Medic (also Combat Medic) is a class in the game Team Fortress Classic. While primarily a healer, his speed and offensive abilities make him a proficient killer.

Basic Strategy

  • Use your medpack to heal wounded teammates.
  • Pay attention to team members who call for help.
  • Use your medpack to infect enemies. The contagion spreads to other members of the opposing team, causing panic and massive damage.
  • Try to buff the vital members of your team. You can increase their health by 50 hit points over their maximum.
  • Pay attention to teammates who have been infected by opposing medics. You are the only person capable of healing an infection.
  • The player shouldn't forget to use the Bioweapon to heal allies while departing their base.

Quake Team Fortress

In QWTF, the Super Shotgun's damage falloff makes it weak past very short range. In TFC, the Super Shotgun has no falloff damage, making it much more powerful and letting the Medic keep his Super Nailgun ammo for Sentry Guns. In fact, the Super Shotgun be though of as the TFC Medic's primary weapon because of its good damage output and range.

Trivia

The Physician's Procedure Mask resembles the mask worn by the Medic in the original Team Fortress Classic model.
