The Medic is one of four base classes featured in Battlefield V. Its two Combat Roles are "Field Medic" and "Combat Medic". During Open Beta, only one of Combat Roles was available - "Field Surgeon".
Originally being equipped exclusively with SMGs, this class used to have the shortest effective range than the others until ability to use bolt action carbine from Tides of War. Player can use a Smoke Grenade or Smoke Grenade Rifle to close the distance, as well as provide themselves and friendly soldiers with extra cover or when reviving teammates.
New to Battlefield V is the 'Buddy Revive' system - players in the same squad are now able to revive each other without being a Medic but doing so takes several seconds, and is often done at high risk to both players. Using their kit-exclusive Syringe, Medics can revive downed players of any squad with shorter time.
The Medic carries a continuous supply of Bandages that can be tossed to teammates, which will cause their health to start regenerating immediately if the player is not currently or consecutively in combat. Doing so also give the player a consumable health pack that can be used to heal themselves later - Medics can therefore earn resupply points by issuing these single-use health packs to players.
The Medic can also use a pouch on themselves, the same way any other class would use them. Applying or tossing too many in succession will force the gadget into a short cooldown period. Medics who have the Medical Crate can place a down crate down for players to retrieve health pouches from.
Medic can also use AP Mine for personal defense.
Trivia[]
- Downed enemies can be revived by enemy Medics with their syringe, but unlike multiplayer, they take a few more seconds to revive and return to combat.
- In singleplayer, medics are easily identified with the pair of crutches again, as well as the Sanitater helmet available as a cosmetic for Germans in multiplayer.
