Where can I get medikits

[Johnsen1972]

I have my own ship and 3 compnation but I havent found a mechant to buy medikits. so basically I fail and die on the first planets because of the lack of medikits. I just got two at the start but used them quite early. Now my companion and me are getting killed by friendly fire from npc who are supposed to be helpful. This sucks.

I found the same problem early on, a lack of healing items, or options. If you're stuck on a planet with a bunch of insured characters you can't cure, your game could literally be ripped.

This is why I just run a warrior heavy lineup, and I never had this problem. You want at least 3-4 warriors for the early game segments. Once your biomancy tanks get their actual heals you'll be in good shape.

Lack of healing items or healing moves is only an early game problem.

you need to level up your rep with that ship that sell stuff. then you can buy from them 9 medkits

Oh man, warrior is that strong?

You do realize you can recover wounds between battles without using medkits right? Save them for if you have lots of old wounds debuffs. Also how are you taking so much damage in those early encounters to require using all your early medkits up? Between dodge,cover, and armor mechanics i'm barely losing any wounds on normal at the opening chapter.

Like I said the npc on my first planet shoot me in back and kill me

btw as you progress in game like i did i found red medkit which are even better. game not hard tbh if take cover and not run into enemy and let them push int oyuo. btw everything will be healed as you go back to ship . i only use medkit in fight if i really really need extra peopel i dont mind defbuffs since good pos and magic does its thing in this game . if oyu run into open when they have 3-4 people with guns good luck winning a single battle . use your head or watch a guide so far game isnt that hard.

I found some medikits after 30 min and several wounded chars.

if you need medkits to win early fights you should watch how to play game . seems you dont use tactics to your atv in early fights they arent hard at all

The first warrior the gave me was able to face tank the chaos spawn + 3-4 mobs shooting at him in the tutorial mission.......other characters could be nearly oneshot if they got hit.

They're even better if you make them psyker with bio or sanct for the heals/buffs.

Warrior heavy team early on, especially psyker-warriors is very strong, and you won't ever need med kits. I'd say 3-4 warrior tanks, with 2 spots open for some snipers or operators who can find 1 spot to camp and LoS mobs from a distance. Doing this vs just rolling with the random characters the game gives you is a night and day difference.

Rogue Trader: "You have so much wealth that even bothering with numbers is silly."

Also Rogue Trader: "You can't acquire a medikit on a 1.6 km long ship with a crew of tens of thousands. Also your gun is something you looted from a random hobo who tried to kill you."

At the very least I should have gotten my forebearer's gun and telling my crew that I need 4 medikits should be something they can do without thought. Hell, if I asked for 400 of them the things it shouldn't be an issue. Instead I literally only have what I looted from the ship while it was under attack.

I realize balance is an issue, but really, I should almost immediately have infinite supplies of common items. Medikits, grenades, common small arms. I should have literally tons of these things available to me. But no, I have to hope these insane rebels have a spare medikit on them because I literally can't buy one. Or anything else.

Im completing what I think are the last missions in the first solar system, Im level 11, and I think i've must have used the medkits 3 times in combat.
You can get by the first fights in the game by outdamaging your opponent. If your teammates get downed, they will revive after combat and usually a couple of debuffs are not that bad ... And the debuffs get removed returning to the voidship.

Other than that, you can level up your rep with that pirate faction - you can buy 10 medkits from them. Later on you can buy more once you meet the 2nd trading faction.

Trust me you'll come across them more frequently. Still in the first section of the game (Level 12) and got about 15 now and haven't really felt the need to use them unless you have a few old wounds and your wounds(health) gets restored between every fight.
