    That is everyones point. Regardless of whether or not the initial aggro generated by the casting of the new Medica 2 is less than the old the overheal will change that.

    No one is going to leave a raid damaged and let medica 2 tick for 30 secs to get the healing out of it and avoid overhealing. The raid will be topped off either by necessity from you or the sch and the fairy healing.

    Medica 2 generated extra threat from overhealing usually because the raid got topped off with either medica, succor or whispering dawn but it was a few ticks. Having a 30 sec heal will mean that it will tick longer on a fully topped off raid and not just be a waste but a threat generator. Just because the hot is longer and weaker doesn't mean you can afford to just let the raid sit.

    In other games having hots rolling usually was a good thing because threat really wasn't an issue. This game punishes overhealing. Unless they remove the threat from hots its just going to make threat managment difficult.

    They don't even have to fully remove it to fix the problem, all they need to do is have overheal enmity the same as heal enmity. Or reduce SoS cooldown to 60s so we can manage our own enmity.
