Also I'm interested in the current plans for the Medic, when I first stated months ago that its L4 is by far the most powerful spell and needs to go by hp level the idea seemed to be ignored. Hopefully now, it seems like the idea to change the spell is going to be implemented. Most people think this would make the Medic useless, but even with a spell change it would still be insanely powerful, especially with both the L2 and L4 together. I do agree that the Medic would require a bonus to its own Hp from the spell, since most people use the L1 to heal anyway.
Medic's L3 is the last thing that needs to be improved, the mana spell would actually be 10x more useful now that the Medic's allies will be getting Hp upgrades for maximum benefit. Before all the civs would go into mana, making the spell useless unless a hero wanted to spam a spell over and over. If any changes should be implemented to the L3, enable the mana to go over the maximum of its current level (I don't mean the 450 max). This would allow heroes to rush their L4 (or any other spell) with only their starting 60 mana which for 9 civs worth of spells, giving an alternative route of strategy.
Another idea is to swap L2 and L3 and to change the mana given to something that would be suitable for an L2 spell. The Medic's current disable spell is definitely one of the most useful spells in the game, right behind its own L4, Assassin's L1 and Mutants L1. I don't see much of a problem if it were to be 80 mana for the same spell, unless you felt it needed to have a slightly longer duration.
The main problem with these ideas is that people are already complaining that Medic isn't too powerful. I know people that call it a useless hero in 2v2, but even then it is hugely too powerful as I have played many 2v2 where I would be Medic and the enemy had no chance because most heroes have a heavy reliance on spell casting and as long as we played it safe and their heroes didn't directly counter me and my ally, the game would already be won.
