BF2S Forums How to get the Expert Heal Badge?

Keep hucking med packs, and pretty much keep your med pack out at all times, healing everyone as you can...that's how I got my Vet, easily at that.

I've tried that, damn it, I constantly stay at the front lines hucking packs and paddling like a whore, ak101 anyone available, and hucking more packs. I just can't get 25, I've even joined 64 player servers with like 40 ppl etc. but I can't get 25!!!

NO MILK FOR YOU!

Yeah that sure is a tough one, I think it took me three real hard tries to do it.

I got mine on 64 Player Karkand. The rounds dont last as long as the smaller servers, however, there is more action and healing to be done.

Don't ever go to far out of the main croud of team mates to heal one dude who decides to go take a stroll up the mountains. Unless the round is about to end and you really need a point.

But, there some tips I learned from quickly:

1.) Don't play as you normally would, this includes prioritising people who need health, more than those who need to be rivived.

Always heal someone before reviving anyone or killing anyone. Healing should be your top priority. Throw it into the main area's of traffic, and don't help them get the flag. That one area is CQC heaven, and people always need to be healed constantly. Before you know it, you'll get it. Also try not to use all of your sprint power. If someone needs health and they aint stopping, go to someone else and just drop the pack.

Canada check your messages.  What do you think? 

I've been trying for two weeks now for the expert 1st aid, the most i've got was 20.  Honestly think it's nearly impossible to get 25, what with all the medics running around, m203's going off everywhere, and the nade whores chucking their stuff about.

BadSnipaDay, I hope you are kidding, as otherwise you just admited to stat padding, a bannable offense.

Anyways, I only got up to 21 heals in a round, but I don't have enough to get the expert anyways, so I havent been trying it much.  On the 21 round I was playing as MEC on Karkand on 64 player map with about 40-50 people playing.

At the southernmost point where all of the action happens I would drop a couple packs in the fenced area, but mainly I would simply crouch next to people that were prone at the corners and the likes, healing them as they take each bullet without throwing packs.  if there are multiple people you will find you can pick up points extremely fast. 

The main thing to note is that most of my points are achieved with my pack out healing someone, not by throwing, as it often seems people end up running over packs after they've taken a bar or two of damage, netting you 1/10 of a heal point for an entire pack, where as you could simply run past them with your pack out, not take a noticable hit on it, and pick up that 1/10 of a point.  It seems if they are over half injured it is more efficient to toss them a pack.

All in all, my advice would be DONT revive, DONT shoot, simply find the area with the most fighting and get next to people under fire with your pack out.  Only worry about reviving if there is no one else around to heal, or if the person is under light fire, revive them and then immediatly pull your health pack out for some healing.  (most players hate this, but it saves a ticket and allows you to get more healing in, I like doing this with people that are prone at a corner being sniped, you have inbetween the 1st and second shot to get some healing in, and then you can revive the person again, often times they will move, but those that dont are really beneficial)

"Oops, I shoot you in the lag. My fault. Here, take a med pack."

I think it should be 25 heals + revives or something. Makes sense, IMO.

and sumone mentioned the BH. i'm one of the BH pilots of my squad and i(we) always try to fly as a medic, never gotten a whole bunch of healin points tho

Did you fly on ghost town? I never got many healing points on mashtuur but on ghost town i really get alot.

Or fly on dragon valley where you need to deal with jets and stuff

Like I've answered on numerous PM's according this..

Throw the medpacks like mad to every chokepoint and to your own snipers in Karkand, and you should get it in a 64-player server like I did.

If your getting 21 points, do what your doing except drop packs... Never drop packs close to each other simply place them at random where enemy can't get them.

Always keep one out in your hands. Personally I've never got more than about 18 in a round, but then again I don't have enough total to get the badge yet.

You best bet is wake island on the north shore near the end. People are always sniping back and forth.

Second don't die, it's also not a bad idea to revive people, rounds last longer and there are more people in your area. Don't case people a drop pack ahead of them, people never look for the heal.

Communicate with your squad... Experts are very difficult to get without help.

I racked up an easy 5 points in a few minutes on wake. Couple snipers laid down taking fire, everytime they got hit they would squirm back and forth and pick up the bag I dropped on top of them while they were healthy. Revive them if they die and they are looking for the heal.
