Speak for yourself. My HR has 2800 regen and it's saved her hide countless times. What did I sacrifice? Power, though at 6500 it's far from terrible. She's what I call the opposite of a "glass cannon". I've had groups in places like Karru or MC wipe on the 2nd boss and been able to keep the fight alive long enough for everyone else to regroup and get back in it.
In Tiamat, against that dragon breath, or when you're harrying and dodging four Legion Devils to keep them away from the cleric, regen is HUGE. What really twists my tail is the apparent pigeonholing to force us into DPS builds instead of letting us have the choice to be a CC/defensive/survival build instead.
Devs: do not do this to regen.
I also stack regen with my TR up to 3800 regen total..
Hate to see it go...

I hate paying taxes! Why must I pay thousands of dollars in taxes when everything I buy is taxed anyways!
About regeneration: "traditionally" regeneration is out of combat. You get hit, you sneak away into some corner, regenerate and get back into the fight. Neverwinter messed it up in a way.
I don't even use potions anymore on my HR. If I'm not one shotted, I get back to full health in no time, even from 1% hp left. And I'm not combat (archery) and I don't stack regeneration nor lifesteal, I just get whatever I get from gear.
There is indeed a 60 MB patch for the preview, but the server is still down.

Don't forget to read the Official Stickies folks, as one of them mentions the Preview being offline and others will re-open when the Preview Server comes back up. We will make a notice when its up in the Sticky for that, not here. Thanks!

It would be nice to have a) a sense of what the problem is and b) an official update on when they expect it MIGHT be back up.
Howdy, Rabbinicus! We did post an update yesterday at 5:18 pm PST there. The ETA then was either sometime today or tomorrow (the 28th). That hasn't changed yet I'm afraid. As for the issue, because of the nature we really cannot say. Yeah, it was that bad.

Heya Zeb! There was an update? Did I miss it in Dev Tracker? Last thing I see on the Topic is from Akro on the 24th.
So on a scale of zero to the heat death of the universe, where does the problem fall?

I'm very curious about the companions. I wanna see how strong they are, their lvl 40 power and, of course, if they have new skins for the legendary levels.
I hate dancing with Lady Luck. She always steps on my toes.

Nay, check the OP of that thread. Akro and DWightMC usually always continue to update the original posts of any informational threads they make. Well, on the scale of the Universe...
Regeneration: No longer provides in Combat Health Regeneration. Now increases the effectiveness of healing spells cast against you and provides out of Combat health regeneration.
Life Steal: No longer activates on all attacks. Life Steal now increases the chance to activate life steal, which will steal an amount equal to the life steal severity the player has.
No. no. no. no. Just No. So instead of nerfing just one class like usual, you're actually going to make most of the game unplayable? Pot-spam was already finger-busting for the solo player who's not geared to the teeth, guess we will be just standing around in PE listening to the spammers for even longer now. Never used regen myself, but i know people who do...mostly tanks, and as for lifesteal....lets just say these are Extremely unwelcome changes, shall we. I foresee quite a few ragequits.
Potions: We have changed the way that stat enhancing potions work. Now you may have only one normal stat enhancing potion in effect at one time. The magnitude of many stat potions has also been increased.
I don't see even ONE reason for this, it doesn't even make sense..
[*][*]Regeneration: No longer provides in Combat Health Regeneration. Now increases the effectiveness of healing spells cast against you and provides out of Combat health regeneration.

Could you bring back old unstoppable and 100% DR on shield?
Its good to cut OPness of CWs&SWs as they can solo CN now...

I couldn't check the new skins, because after rush-training them I didn't have 1M AD on-hand to upgrade one at level 35.
I did manage to check out the effect of the defense stat at level 60:
Live: 6208 defense, damage resistance 48%
Preview: 6679 defense, damage resistance 48.6% (after training companions to 35, three of which give me defense)
This is *very* disappointing.

Bear in mind that the stat curves will change at every level, so 70 should have more wiggle room than 60.

Yep. GFs are going to be royally ****ed by the regen change if they do not have a DC or a healing companion holding their hands. And even then, the companions are usually made out of paper and will drop stone dead within seconds.
I don't see even ONE reason for this, it doesn't even make sense..
Likely an attempt to ''balance'' PVP. It is mainly PVPers that jack themselves up on potions. But that isn't even a problem as the potions are cheap and there is no excuse for any player not being able to boost their primary stats by +2 at the very least.
PSA: You don't need to grind Spinward Rise for your Elemental artifact main hand if you have some AD lying around. You can craft it via the Tyranny of Dragon's campaign screen.

Tank without regen/life steal. That's the wall !! Nice idea Cryptic. I quess you wish to remove all GF's from server and force em to lvl up and equip, using $$ ofc, new chars (Paladins). Nothing like that will happen. Rather ragequit.
100% of DR and control resists if shield up + reduction of animations time, and no skills avoiding defence - as a sign of good will.
can not delete any charactor to try a new one. Says delete failed
If you were in the same situation as I was when the preview was up last week, and you are trying to delete more than 1 character, you must wait a little bit of time after deleting the first character before you try to delete another one. I did not time it, as I would assume its bugged, and disconnects you when it fails to delete a character.
Just delete 1, wait a few mins, then delete another, it should work. Did for me.
So I've met aquatic elves NPCs in the new area. I hope to the gods that it won't be the next race added! I do like my elves, but we have too many already.
Okay... so the very first green Main Hand Weapon **** we get for the very first mission we are given by Knox is already on par (stat wise) with the Legendary Artifact I have spent so much to raise to lvl 60 ? Really ?
Well, there's not a freezing chance in Hell I will EVER spend a single AD on that same mistake again. I'll just wait for the next Lvl increase.
Apparently, you still cannot refine gems beyong rk 10 for the moment, even if they are not labelled "max level" any more.
In few maps ( Neverdeath / Ebon downs / others zone with dragons ), there are few mobs with a lot of HP ( similar with hp pool of dj mobs ). Bug or not ?
Not only is the new green lvl 60 gear better than legendary gear, but they have also nerfed current gear. My timeless hero gear has had all it's stats reduced by nearly 50%. Way to go.
