Yeah, but on which difficulties is it worth the dosh (over giving it to needy teammates)? I remember one game of suicidal mountainpass where the medic kept enraging stuff with his bow instead of actually healing people, and killed one of our actual SS by hiding behind him from an enraged scrake, and used enough dosh to supply half our team...and ever since then Ive been very wary of xbowing medics
Yeah, this is my experience too. Post HOE xbow medics seem to do more harm than good for the team. They seem to always take scrakes out of stun and simply irritate fleshpounds without doing any real damage.
I personally think the hunting shotgun is the way to go. It can clear small zeds off your teammates like a grenade launcher could, and you can use it point blank when meat shielding a fleshpound or scrake, which is something you can't do all that well with a grenade launcher. The only real drawback is that it's expensive, but not really much more so than many of the other weapons you could take.
