Summary
The Veterinary skill allows players to heal, cure, and resurrect using veterinary supplies or bandages. Players may use vet supplies on followers and themselves but bandages are required to heal other players. This skill complements the Animal Taming and Animal Lore skills. Much like the Healing skill, you have to stand close to initiate and complete the bandaging attempt.
- Veterinary supplies heal multiple targets within a small area while bandages may heal a single target under a [[#Bandaging Skills Crossover|crossover]] penalty
- Players qualify for the benefits of the Healers Codex if they have at least 80 Veterinary and 80 Animal Lore printed skill
- Minimum Animal Lore skill of 60 is required for successful bandage cure attempts
- Minimum Animal Loreskill of 80 is required for successful bandage resurrection attempts
- Bandage Healing Amounts on creatures are ((Veterinary Skill / 100) * ((Random Value of 80 to 120) * (1 + (.2 * Animal Lore Skill / 100))))
- Players casting Heal and Greater Heal onto Tamed and Summoned Followers will now increase the amount of Healing received by (50% * (Effective Veterinary Skill / 100))
- Tamed and Summoned Followers will receive a Damage Bonus of (10% * (Effective Veterinary Skill / 100))
Stationary Bandaging
- Players who have been stationary for 5 seconds may bandage targets up to 2 tiles away
- Player healing range reverts back to 1 tile range if the player moves within 5 seconds of finishing the bandage

Veterinary Supplies
- Players can craft Veterinary Supplies at 100 Tailoring skill
- Requires 100 Cloth, 10 Bees Wax, 1 Greater Heal Potion, and 1 Greater Cure Potion
- Veterinary supplies are crafted in stacks of 200, each item having a single use
- Using Veterinary Supplies has the same bandaging timer length as using bandages with Veterinary
- When players double-click veterinary supplies, they will attempt to heal all friendly followers (pets/summons) within 2 tiles
- A player cannot use a bandage while using veterinary supplies and activating veterinary supplies will cancel any bandages they have in progress
After the player's normal Veterinary 5s bandage duration has occurred, all friendly followers within 2 tiles of the player will be treated as having been healed with a bandage, but with the following modifications:
- Health restored is 50% of normal amounts when bandaging (increases to 75% if only single target affected)
- Chance to cure poison is 50% of normal chance when bandaging (increases to 75% if only single target affected)
- Chance to resurrect a dead follower is 50% of normal chance when bandaging (increases to 75% if only single target affected)
Bandaging Skills Crossover
- When using Bandages on a target, players suffer a "Crossover" penalty for using bandaging skills not normally allowed for the target type, such using Veterinary + Animal Lore on Players, or using Healing + Anatomy on Followers
- Bandage Crossover has a penalty, and results in only 50% of normal Healing Amounts, Cure and Resurrection chances.
- If players attempt to Cure or Resurrect targets using Crossover skills, the Crossover skills used must meet the base skill requirements for that action type (i.e. Curing will require 60 or higher for both skills used and Resurrection will require 80 or higher for both skills used)
- If a player has the skills available to heal the target using either the "Normal" skills or "Crossover" skills, the bandaging attempt will use whichever skills results in the higher Healing amount or gives them the higher Cure or Resurrect success chance
- Skill Gain for bandaging will always apply on the normal skills for the target: bandaging Players will always raise Healing + Anatomy skill and bandaging Creatures will always raise Veterinary + Animal Lore
Commands
- Players can now type [VetSupplies or [VeterinarySupplies to search for a Veterinary Supplies item in their backpack and use it
