I think we shouldn't heal so quickly

Hi i was jus thinking that perhaps all characters shouldn\'t heal as quickly as they do. The main reason is that by the time you are ready to engage in combat again you have fully recovered all HP. This kind of makes healers and healing potions a little useless. You can be half dead and back to 100% in a couple of minutes. I think it should take several hours for that. This would be more realisitc and it would give players/spell casters a chance to make a living out of being a healer or potion maker. Who know\'s it might even out the problem with NPC spawn location hogging.

What think you?

make it stat based on how fast you can heal

I definately agree that the rate does seem a little fast, but if you look at the game clock (not the one on the windows bar at the bottom of you\'re screen) an hour in-game is more like 15 minutes out of game which helps a little.
perhaps how fast you heal should be based on your skills and so be different for every player.  
generally I do agree that it should slow down, but then maybe magical healing should have a slightly greater affect, right now I can barely heal faster magically than naturally (but I am a low level healer so that may be that problem)
oh, and I love the idea about the sewer water slowing/reversing healing for a while, and that you should be able to heal all the way naturally.  Kudos! very realistic.
