i'd say blutsauger because it can help you when you need health, also crusaders crossbow aint that bad either.

Stock. Though if you know it is a close-quarter map or you can land most of the needles, then go bluts. All in all, it depends on your play style.

Blutsauger for hitting enemies for health, overdose for speed boost, or CC for long range sniping

If you're a lot more aggressive as a medic, use the Blutsauger, if you're very passive, take the Syringe gun. if you're comfortable with the damage falloff and want to be more mobile, get an Overdose. If you want a little bit something hip and cool, get a crusader's.

All the medic Primaries are good and I don't see any of them obsolete compared to other classes' primary unlock/drops.

Blut all the way, very underrated. The last thing anyone expects is a combat medic, you just have to charge head on when using
Overdose. Blut sucks. You have to have perfect aim to make it worth your while. Overdose is better than stock as it lets you get away faster. The damage is real immaterial as killing anything with any needle gun is hard as it is.

A medic that doesn't stay alive much is a medic that's useless. The Blutsauger directly enforces a medic go to combat medic which reduces their healing potential and thus their uber potential. And damage from the blut is rarely ever counteracted by the health from hits due to the weakness within all needle guns. Basically, the blut is like the Machina, it encourages bad behavior that leads to poor skills. I know I die a heck of a lot less now that I switched to the Overdose.

I do see a factor being played with sniper's weapons and medic's weapons

Over-Dose is like the Bazaar Bargin/Sydney Sleeper, where the Bluttsauger is the Machina/Huntsman.

Huntsman does not encourage aiming, while machina is a huge delay.

Blutsauger for combat medic pro skillz.

Syringe gun for general use.

Overdose encourages the better policy, which is usually -- to flee danger rather than push your look.

Between Blut and stock, stock all the way. Blut isn't going to be very helpful when you've just been hit by a long-range fire or bleed attack and could use the regen, for instance, and it's not going to be terribly reliable at saving you even close up.

blut only for defence

Why those two?
I love using a crusaders crossbow for annoying those snoipahs, and healing my teammates.
Somehow the crossbow heals faster than the medigun for me :l
