Best Equipment & Loadout For Medics In Foxhole

How To Play As A Medic In Foxhole

In the game Foxhole, unlike some others, there are no specific skills or classes required for players. This means that anyone can assume the role of a medic or heal another soldier, provided they have the appropriate gear at their disposal.

After players have ensured they’re fully geared up, possibly carrying an additional safety pistol, they might prefer to store the setup or save the configuration, to facilitate smoother resurrections in the future.

Medic Uniform In Foxhole

To create an optimal medic character in Foxhole, players should initially choose to wear a medical outfit. By doing so, medical supplies will pile up more easily without being overly burdensome. Additionally, allied soldiers can more readily recognize medics when they’re properly dressed, although the ability to heal remains functional even if no uniform is worn.

You can locate this uniform, along with our medical equipment, at our base. To access the inventory, simply press the letter ‘E’ to display the stockpile.

First Aid Kit & Bandages

Bandages can be considered as an essential item for your First Aid Kit, but adding them can be a bit tricky. To ensure that the Bandages are in the kit, make sure they’re both in your inventory, but not currently being used. To un-equip the First Aid Kit, press the number 3, and then press it again to equip it. In the top left corner, you should see that you have 10/10 uses available for the kit.

Bandages and the First Aid Kit are used to stop bleeding and heal injured soldiers.

Trauma Kit & Blood Plasma

The essential component for the Trauma Kit, positioned in the primary slot rather than housing a primary weapon, is Blood Plasma. To make use of the Trauma Kit after pressing 1, players should ensure they have Blood Plasma in their stockpile first, so it’s ready to be utilized simultaneously.

After healing a wounded soldier with the Trauma kit, players will need to go through this process again whenever they need to revive a soldier.

Having a Gas Mask & filters for it can also be useful for medics.

How To Heal In Foxhole (First Aid Kit & Bandages)

Soldiers heavily streaked with blood have sustained injuries, and if there’s continuous gushing of blood from them, they are rapidly losing life force. As a medical professional, dealing promptly with soldiers in a state of rapid loss of life force should be your top priority as they lose one unit of vitality every second.

To tend to wounded soldiers, medical personnel should approach them while carrying a First Aid Kit. Pressing button 3 will prepare the kit for use. To administer first aid, hold down the left mouse button. Remember, it’s crucial that the First Aid Kit is stocked with Bandages.

In this scenario, the cursor displays “Treating” when it starts healing, and switches to “Treatment Complete” once finished. The length of time depends on the severity of the injury. If a soldier is already fully healthy, and you try to heal them, it will display “No one requires treatment”.

Remember that each time you use the First Aid Kit, at least one Bandage will be consumed.

How To Heal Yourself In Foxhole

Sadly, even medical personnel can sustain injuries, which means they might have to treat themselves when help is unavailable. Moreover, it’s essential for all foot soldiers in Foxhole to be knowledgeable about self-healing, as this could potentially halt the wound from worsening.

The First Aid Kit can’t be used to heal oneself, so players will instead have to equip a Bandage. Regular infantry can carry a Bandage in their backpack for this reason. To heal, simply hold down the Left Mouse Button.

This will only stop the bleeding, and to be fully healed, another medic must be found.

How To Revive In Foxhole (Trauma Kit & Blood Plasma)

When soldiers sustain specific harm or bleed excessively, they’ll be considered as injured and collapse onto the ground, following which a 30-second countdown begins. If this countdown ends, they will perish.

Medical personnel have the ability to resuscitate these injured soldiers. Frequently, medics must first move these soldiers out of immediate harm’s way before they can begin treatment, which is accomplished by pressing the key ‘E’ next to them. During transportation, a wounded soldier’s countdown to death will temporarily stop.

Following the transfer of the injured soldier to a secure location, medics can select option 1 to arm themselves with their First Aid Kit, ensuring it’s fully stocked with Blood Plasma. This action will cause the wounded solider to fall. To revive them, just press and hold down the left mouse button.

Revived soldiers will still be wounded, so heal them with a First Aid Kit after reviving them.

How To Use Ambulances As A Medic In Foxhole

In the game ‘Foxhole’, ambulances play multiple roles. They facilitate quick movement of medics to sites requiring assistance, carry ample amounts of medical equipment, and transport critically injured soldiers to hospitals.

How To Build An Ambulance In Foxhole

To construct an ambulance within Foxhole, locate a garage by scanning the map for the truck icon. Once you’ve found it, hit the ‘E’ key to open the build menu, then select either the Dunne Responder 3e or R-12 “Sallus” Ambulance from the available options.

150 Basic Materials will be required.
Left-Click on the ambulance icon to start building it.
Then hold down the Left Mouse Button for quite a while to build.
Make sure to bring diesel.

Stocking An Ambulance In Foxhole

To equip an ambulance with necessary medical supplies, park at a supply depot located at the base and press the ‘E’ key. Then, by holding down the ‘Shift’ key and left-clicking on items like Bandages, players can quickly gather multiple of them into the ambulance.

One significant advantage of an ambulance is that its stocked medical supplies can be accessed immediately by medics, rather than spending time gathering items individually from a base. This means an ambulance positioned close to the front line significantly improves the speed and effectiveness of medical care provided.

Hospitals & Critically Wounded Soldiers In Foxhole

In the game Foxhole, when a soldier meets a fatal end, there’s approximately a 40% likelihood that they will transform into a Critically Wounded Soldier instead, which from a gameplay perspective is an item. The player who previously controlled this soldier will be reborn as another character, but this injured soldier can still contribute to the team in various ways.

By rescuing these soldiers and transporting them to a medical facility for treatment, Medical Supply Kits will be generated. These kits, frequently referred to by their symbol, the ‘shirt’, enable players to respawn at a base. If there are none available, then there will be no reinforcements, making them extremely valuable resources.

How To Recover A Critically Wounded Soldier In Foxhole

Injured Soldiers who have sustained critical wounds can often be recognized by the position they’re lying in, which is usually on one side without any visible signs of blood around them.

Walk up and press V.
Carry them to an ambulance and press V again.
Pull up at a Hospital or Field Hospital.
Press E to open the ambulance and click on the soldier to carry them again.
At the hospital, press E to interact and then in the bottom left, click on the Submit Patient button.

Moving a soldier in an ambulance may not be essential, but it significantly expedites the journey for longer trips.

There must be bed spaces at the hospital, and it will take around 10 minutes for the patient to turn into 4 Soldier Supplies.

How To Make A Field Hospital In Foxhole

In case players find themselves far from a regular hospital, they could instead set up an improvised Medical Station, offering fewer beds but still providing necessary assistance.

With a hammer equipped, Press B to bring up the build menu and select Field Hospital.
200 Basic Materials are required to build it.
Hold the Right Mouse Button to rotate.
Don’t obstruct defenses and make sure it isn’t too close to the front line, especially as the enemy may soon claim this ground.

A Field Hospital serves as a storage for medical equipment and accommodates up to six seriously injured soldiers simultaneously, transforming them into soldier resources all at once. This allows players to respawn at the Field Hospital using these soldier resources, or they can transport these resources to a base.
