This isn't a special holiday deal. It's becoming typical of DB to offer an old variant of upcoming event crew on the Tuesday before the event.
Whether or not it's a "good" deal depends on the character, and sadly, Mobile Doctor has been power-creeped into oblivion. One of the lowest Voyage scores from a three-skill character, no Gauntlet use, and one usable base. A year ago he'd have been adequate, but now we have Cornwell, Bell Riots Bashir, and all the other additions to the portal - not to mention the excellent EMA himself. Med is no longer the rarity it was in 2017.
Sorry, Doc. The Mark 1 EMH is obsolete!
When it comes around for a legendary i already have or a strong base like Durango Troi, I’ll be in.
But at one or two stars, I question his value considering today's portal crew and this week's EMA. Mobile Doctor doesn't even have a sound effect (which, given the wealth of Robert Picardo material available, is a crime!). His only value is base Med. If you don't have him and his ~920 base Med points to send out on an everyday shuttle, then it'll just be ~905-point Mirror Phlox or whoever. In fact, Mobile Doctor doesn't even overtake Combat Medic Paris' base Med until the Doc reaches three stars.
And with his lack of traits and lack of endgame prowess, he's not worth multiple legendary citations, either. So for players to whom he's new, he's just going to take up a crew slot - and maybe add 0.5% onto an everyday shuttle here and there.
Re-read my own post several times. Still not sure where I said "Holiday".......
It was in Morse code....................
Been waiting all year to make that joke?
That should be the way to do it, now. A lot of people might not have wanted two Siskos, but would want two Doctors.......
For half the price of a double up, and you get free chrons, and credits if you care about credits;)
I don't know if I will buy him, at 4/5 his Med base stat would be around 1300.
He has huge Med stats for shuttles at 5/5*
Power creeped into Oblivion? He is still the 5th best base MED crew in game!
Wow, that's some bad luck on the timing for you.
I have been sitting on a 50k honour for a few days, but I waited to get a citation until after noon today just in case DB pulled a fast one and made citations half price or something.
