Is the Medic legendary underrated?

Seems like Medic doesn't get any love, but the new description says crits heal you and your group by 5%. Vampire only heals 2% per hit. So if you're getting a critical on every other hit, Medic is healing you more than Vamp, AND also healing your group. Seems pretty powerful.

if you run a dps effect you don't need to heal.

Vampire + Ricochet is why.

Was better before the legacy purge. Before that patch it was a heal per hit, not just per shot. This favoured multi pellet weapons like shotguns or splitter energy.

Now unless you do crit every other shot with rapid fire weapons it is less useful. As others have mentioned vampire is the better heal option because of ricochet and explosive interaction.

Ah, that makes sense.

It's good for the team boost, but the others above are right - vampire is much better for healing yourself. I have a character who used to sling an automatic vampire explosive fixer and I could go from near-zero to 100 in less than a clip - and then I got a vampire gauss shotgun. With that thing I'm damn-near immortal as long as my clip isn't empty.

Heavy gunner build and I managed to obtain a vampire explosive minigun. it's practically bringing up the ol' console and typing in tgm, as long as you got ammo :P

Vampiric Auto-axes are pretty nice, and can heal NPCs with the flamer attachment.

That's a pretty good .50 cal. Got a Vamp/Explosive/90% fixer myself

Still have to get me an auto-axe but I only did one expedition to the Pitt so far.
