Higher level of Doctor doesn't mean less number of injuries, it means smaller injuries in terms of time.

I have a doctor level 3 with massage and then had a player injured for one week and he was well after 3 days. I have noticed my players healing more quickly(less than the amount of time they should have been out) the higher doctor I have. I don't know if the massage or the other one had anything to do with it, but I am a fan of the doctors.

From what we have learned in the past, this statement is not totally true. Supposedly every injury has a certain grade level from say, 1 to 10, 1 being the lightest and 10 being the most severe. Every grade-1 injury allows the player to return by the next game, while every level 10 will mean time off regardless of the skill level of the doctor. Time off for injuries between those two grades will depend on the doctor's skill level. For example, a grade-3 injury might mean a one-week layoff with a level-1 doctor, but no time off for a level-4 one. Likewise, a grade-8 injury would mean a 3-week layoff for a level-1 doctor, but only a 1-week for a level-5 (these examples are only estimations)..I hope that this helps clear up some confusion about the skill levels of doctors...

It actually means both.

Go search the forum for the discussion preceding the introduction of the new staff system several seasons ago.

No, you do. The thing that player is not injured after the game doesn't mean he wasn't injured at all. Injuries are as much probable as with doctor lvl 1 only the duration is shorter.

It's hard to get the rules isn't it?

Doctors help reduce the severity of player injuries. Once a player is injured, a Doctor will also help him heal more quickly, but the effect is much smaller than the initial reduction in severity. Doctors can have the following specialties:


se·ver·i·ty (s-vr-t)
n. pl. se·ver·i·ties
1. The state or quality of being severe.
2. The act or an instance of severe behavior, especially punishment.


So a logic conclusion would be that let's say a player will be injured for 1 week with a lvl 1 doctor, a lvl 5 will reduce the severity of the injury, which can lead to less than a week, thus no injury at all.

Thus indeed both.

i suppose there's a misunderstanding here :)
a injury reduced to less than a week doesn't carry over after the game, so it is true that the level of doctor reduce the number of long-term injuries (by long term i mean not only for the game); but the injury still happened and lasted for the game (or less, in case of succesful specialty doc)
but the number of injuries in the match is indipendent from the level of the doctor. that's what i get from charles post.

I don't understand the snide remarks here...You're right that the probability of injuries is totally independent of doctor level. Whether or not that injury carries over is dependent on the severity of the injury and the level of the doctor. The duration of the injury is very closely tied to the doctor level also...
