Tips & Tricks

  • Can be used on any friendly unit adjacent to the medic, or on the medic themself.
  • Any unit that will benefit from a Medikit will be surrounded by a pink circle with crosses when a soldier with a Medikit is selected. This circle indicates the range at which the medikit can be used.
  • While anyone can use the Medikit, it's really best in a Support soldier's hands.
    • With Sprinter, they can move 3 more tiles per turn, getting into healing range faster.
    • With Field Medic, they can use it two more times per mission, for triple total healing.
    • With Revive, they can bring soldiers back into the fight at 33% HP, which is useful just to get them out of the line of fire, if nothing else.
    • A Medikit is a unique item so a Support soldier with the Deep Pockets ability can only carry a Medikit and another item.
    • And finally, Savior improves the healing done by the Medikit by 4 additional points, meaning more healing overall.
  • Always carry two Medikits into a mission; nothing is more annoying than your dedicated field medic bleeding out because nobody else had a Medikit and couldn't heal him.
  • On Council Missions, and any other mission where you expect large amounts of Thin Men, having all your troopers carry Medikits (or wearing Titan Armor) will make them never use their spit attack.
    • Early on, when your troopers have low armor and low HP, you may want to do this, as Poision Spit rarely, if ever, misses.
    • Later on, when your troopers can shake off the 3 points of damage without a worry, you may want to avoid this, as then you might have Thin Men 'waste' a turn spitting posion for a measily 3 points, rather than risking getting hit, or to draw attention away from your shiny new Psi Troopers.
