Regeneration

— In-game description
Regeneration is a boon that grants healing over time. It stacks in duration. The boon with the highest healing contribution is used before other lower healing power applications. Only healing power affects boon prioritization; healing modifiers do not. Regeneration is affected by healing power and the caster's effective level, following this formula:
(5 + (1.5625 * Effective Level)) + (0.125 * Healing Power)
health per second
At level 80 this simplifies to:
130 + (0.125 * Healing Power)
health per second

Notes[edit]
- Certain effects of skills (like Healing Signet and Virtue of Resolve), traits (like Soothing Mist and Adrenal Health) and Rune of the Dolyak provide healing over time referred to as "regeneration" in the descriptions. However, their effects are separate from the regeneration boon (they do not use the same formula or effect icon, and are not boons and thus cannot be removed by enemies or impaired by negative effects like Dwayna's Lament, nor can they trigger traits or food that depend on the presence of a boon). However, their healing stacks in addition to the regeneration boon and any other similar regeneration effects.
- The cat golem Professor Mew in the Uncategorized Fractal creates the same effect for its allies, the only exception is that is called "Feline Regeneration" instead.
- Regeneration modifiers like Elder's Respite or the 6th bonus from Dwayna runes stack additively, while multiplying with outgoing healing modifiers.[1]
Player Chatter[edit]
- When regeneration is applied to a character they will occasionally shout out one of the following lines, depending on their race and gender.
Race | Gender | |
---|---|---|
Male | Female | |
![]() |
Invigorating! Exhilarating! |
Getting healthy. |
![]() |
Refreshing. | On the mend. |
![]() |
Refreshing. | Replenishing. |
![]() |
