Well, HL hits large enough that you're going to be assuming OH on a consistent basis. I don't really mind if I have 40k or 60k overheal overall. But the larger heal DOES affect GoHL healing, which --...

So, I'm curious.

I see so much talk about gemming for Int and worrying about regen... why? Is anyone really having mana issues? If so, in what situations?

I favor a Crit-Haste build, personally. The GoHL change and COH/WG nerf will only reinforce this in my mind.
