Med II spam

I'm quite sure they don't. And I'm starting to lose hope they ever will.

"Overheal : 300%"
"DPS : 1%"

Just remember that overheal doesn't quite count with SCH as our shields appear as overheal. =(

Oh WHM though - definitely.

I wasn't speaking of "overhealing" in matters of numbers. I was just mentionning healers who keep casting aoe healing spells or cure II / III (or benefic) even though everybody's HP is at 100% and no aoe's coming.

There seems to be WAY more of them than a few months ago..

I will not drop my hp/s for inactivity !!!!!!!!!

I find this a bit annoying, too. But keep in mind that sometimes they will Medica II to give them more wiggle room to DPS as well. For instance, I will Divine Seal, Medica II, Asylum, Regen the tank and then go ham as a DPS for the entire pull.

Having it up before pulls, casting it right before add phases, casting it and then topping everyone off with Medica right after on the other hand...

I think I still overheal a bit but not with medica II tbh

on dpsing with trash I pop DV, regen on the tank, maybe asylum too, cleric on and bang dps, if I'm very awake, cleric off before DV expires to refresh the regen and back to dps but i'm not always awake LOL

Wait, people still do this? I've been a long hiatus so I haven't seen it yet, but really? Spamming MedII is like... I don't even know how to describe it. Why? Why do people spam Medica II? How can you look at Medica II and say "yep, that's spammable!"

I'd rather have a WHM refreshing Medica II every time it falls off so they have wiggle room to DPS than deal with the WHM who Medica II's BEFORE a boss/trash/whatever pull.

Yeah. Those still exist... at level 60.

Tank takes 100 damage? Better use Medica II on the whole team while Ultima Weapon is still buffed up at the start of the fight - "WTF why have I aggro stupid tank"
Best do a Medica II macro and stand in the middle of the fighting arena, they will never know!

My experience is that those who persistently spam Medica II/Aspected Helios uptime don't tend to DPS anyway.

What annoys me more than Medica II spam are the people who just top off the group afterwards with Medica/Cure III when it's completely unnecessary. Why waste the HoT like that? I've even seen it happen with some White Mages doing a Regen, and then doing Cure II right after that on the target. :/

Such waste of precious MP and GCDs, sniff.
