Very much prefer medivacs.

I found that with large bio armies, often units would die to large opposing armies too fast for the medivacs to go over to them and start healing. This issue doesn't exist with medivacs, since they can hang out over the bio-ball, in range of all units simulatenously.

In the campaign, I much, much prefer medics simply because they heal faster with the upgrade.

I usually end up building both... I guess that's just me, but I depending on the map, I would build one more than the other, if I am intended to keep on moving (more medivacs) or stay in a defensive position (medics). Both though help, as you probably won't lose anything when doing a full ball of this and that with healing.

You guys forgot one thing : a medic never dies because she is healed by other medics too. Medivac can be sniped, medic cannot (or not worth sniping).

Medics for healing. Hercules for dropship.

Medivacs got the mobility factor but that is usually not an important one in SP.

I hate medivacs. Only used it for that stupid dr narud mission. They keep dying and they can't heal each other.

Medivacs are better vs psy storm against protoss.

It makes MMM possible vs protoss.

It will not be killed by tank or baneling.

Btw. Which is better since you are only comparing two units.
I'm doing math. Please don't disturb.

the OP is asking for the campaign. I have no idea why you're talking about tanks or banelings.

Def medics, I found almost no use for medivacs throughout the entire campaign.

Ok Thx Guys. I think ill go with Medics in my Maruader Ghost Medics Build. In terms of Ghost vs Spectres I think ill go with ghost for the range upgrade. What are your thoughts on that.


For a mixed unit composition Spectres are better, Ghosts with +1 are only powerful when you can get large amounts of them (20-30), and even then only on certain missions.

(Ghosts don't have EMP in the campaign)

There are tanks and banelings in the campaign.

That being said there aren't many lol.

medivacs have that upgrade that allows you do heal 2 units at one time which means it has more HPS than a medic. however a medic can be made easier because it requires less tech and it uses less energy per heal so it's more efficient.

You mean Medivacs have higher HPS when there are enough healable targets for all the medivacs to be healing. A lot of engagements don't involve enough targets taking damage for the multiple-heal to be relevant.
