Dark Ages McCoy versus Bashir, Julian Bashir

Ironagedave · February 2018

Purely looking at these two cards from a voyage perspective, but other considerations may sway my decision.

I have both these cards and am thinking of putting a citation on one of them. Question is which one, technically Bashir would be the first choice based on Voyage points overall, however McCoy's MED skills are better and maybe important if MED is one of the key skills. So question is who would you choose to add another star to?

I suppose from where I am, I would boost whoever has the best base med. That will improve voyages and shuttles.

I was surprised how close they are in overall Voyage points.

I use Dark Ages McCoy for nearly every Voyage for his Med, but almost never use Bashir, Julian Bashir. Then again, for me it's 5* vs. 2* respectively.

Personally I think the base Med is more important, even if it is only ~110 points more, star for star. Dark Ages is also a Civilian, which is a trait I feel like I see way more often than Costumed or Undercover Operative in the Med slot (though obviously Doctor, Starfleet, and Federation are covered).

I guess the ultimate decider is if you need Bashir for his Dip. At 5*, he's got over 1000 base, and his base Med is only 45 less than McCoy.

As I recall mccoy was easier to level bashir. Those teddy bears of bashir are insane to equip. If you have both leveled at 100 then pick best one you like. If you are still leveling Mccoy.
