The EMT Gear is a Tactical Gear that allows players to opt into increased healing potential for both themselves and their team at the cost of reduced combat flexibility.
To primarily serve the purpose of team healing rather than self-healing, the healing feature will only apply to team members. Additionally, to balance the overly beneficial healing effects when using heal items, the usage time of heal items has been adjusted to the following:
Med Kit usage time: 3 seconds → 7 seconds.
First Aid Kit usage time: 3 seconds → 5 seconds.
In addition, the revival speed of teammates has been changed from 3 seconds → 8 seconds to prevent overly quick recoveries in tense scenarios.
Using Energy Drinks or Painkillers will now provide a 50% additional effect.
This boost will only be for personal use and does not apply to teammates.
