Reply to comment by asifbaig in [WP] In this world healers, while respected, are often looked down upon due to their limited offensive capabilities. One day your party is completely wiped out, and the world finds out just how dangerous knowledge of human anatomy can be. by Useless_homosapien

Thanks! :D

The 2nd intercostal does work if you're willing to use a longer catheter, but to my knowledge, the 5th intercostal is preferred by medics because the catheter is inserted from the side of the chest, which isn't obstructed by body armour. This is moot if you're a cleric wearing nothing but long flowy robes, but I'd like to think that medics in a magical setting are still trained that way because tanks and brawlers would probably wear some sort of armour!
