    Don't 'rarely' use Medica II. That's a habit you don't want to have. Medica I is just an AOE Cure I.

    I used to think exactly like that, until I got into the Vault. And Medica II is AMAZING for Midgar in Keeper of the Lake.

    Also overhealing is natural when you use Regen/Medica II.

    Generally speaking, if you heal someone that barely needs it, yeah that's over healing for sure. Necessary times where you have to spam healing - this can't be helped.

    So you'd cast Medica II on a 20-30 second interval AoE that deals around or less than 1000 damage each time (first boss, Fractal Continuum)?

    No. Medica I is better there. Use your head. I know you're smarter than that. And I did say what I wanted to say in a very nice way.

    Yes. I actually do use Medica II on the first boss in the Fractal Continuum. But then again, I let the party drop to 50% before I consider healing them so... :3

    I was questioning this particular gem, because it's as vague as it can be:

    Keeping an overheals to a minimum isn't a bad thing, which was the whole reason of the OP of "rarely" using Medica II in the first place. While overhealing will always happen, it is not a bad habit to keep it at a minimum. It's more of a bad habit to use Medica II whenever because you can. Especially when it's only useful on a single target and every potency on other party members would be pure overhealing.
