Suggestion: Introduce Regeneration gears for Leader/Defender/Controller classes

So far, gears which have decent Regeneration bonuses all go to TR, which is a striker. I'm not sure why the introducer tried so hard to associate Regeneration with a striker class. Maybe he only likes TR.

Please also care about other classes and help them have better Regeneration.

    That is not true.

    The artifact change has already balanced that out.

    TR set has no regeneration unless you use blue. that is why they get some good regen ring/belt to make it up.

    Samething goes to HR. It is pretty balance in terms of regen and you do have to know regen DR kick in hard after 1000-1200

    Everyone can get artifacts, while decent Regeneration gears such as Seal of the Executor are TR only.

    Okay, I got it. Not a single TR's armor set provides Regeneration.

    But my wizard's armor set doesn't provide Regeneration, either.

    Fatebender, High Vizier, Magelord, Archmage. 4 CW sets that provide regeneration on every piece. For non-set epic pieces, you also have: Arcane Overseer's and the Drake/Unicorn seal equipment. Those are 7 "armor sets" that provide a CW regeneration. You also have a lot of main/offhands that provide regeneration as well as the option to use blue equipment to try and gain more regeneration. Don't even try to complain about lack of regeneration for a CW.

    Lets say you equip High Vizier (574 regen), the PvP artifact and lvl it to 29 (213 regen, might be a bit less but going off of lvl 30 stats and very easy to do), any of the +70 regen offhands, any of the multiple +133 regen mainhands, and the +250 regen boon (also very easy). You now have a total of: 574 + 213 + 70 + 133 + 250 = 1240 Regeneration. You can get even more regen by getting the items that all classes can use that add regeneration. What's the problem here? Most people don't need more than 1000 regen since it already heals a decent amount.

    there is a NPC vendor that sells regen rings that are similar to the ones you are talking about and have the same stats as the 300+ regen item for TR, 40k AD each usable around the 30s i think... i got the rings and necklace for my HR
    There is a TR only item that is 400+ regen but i think they dont drop anymore and are sold in AH for a very high price. The rings i speak of are better, i feel, because the stat is almost the same but VERY much cheaper and VERY accessible

    Yeah man, seriously. Check out your gear. HV and Fomorians have tons of regen. Also ancient and fomorian weapons have tons of regen to. With artifacts my CW rocks 1800 regen in PvP.

    Thanks all. And thanks for the info about the vendor that sells 300+ regeneration rings. I will go to check it.

    Thanks. I just checked and found that CW can buy +266 regen ring from the pegasus seal trader.

    Seriously? My CW has 1400 regen in PVP and almost 2000 regen in PVE. Check out the High Vizier Set, along with Ancient or FF Weapons.

    Yeah, my wizard has Ancient set. As for HV and FF, thanks, but no thanks. :)

    lol, hillarious, you want more regen but won't go Viz or fomorian? They are amazing sets, man. SW is great too and I wear that in a lot of PvE situations, but one wiz with HV makes huge difference in dungeons and, depending on your bar, is great in PvP too.

    Fomorian is amazing survivability and great for targets too far to get SW buff when there is another HV wiz in party.

    SW is great, but it's ultimately a PvE set. Great for clearing mobs - but only if someone else is wearing HV. the HV buff is still too good.

    Well, you asked for Regen gear, right?

    People told you how to get it.

    HV set+boon+epic PvP artifact=1130 Regen or so.

    Why would you go "no thanks" on the best set in the game?

    HV's 4 piece bonus is very self-explanatory. And Fomorian are evil creatures. Thus no FF weapons. :)

    Well, even without the HV/Fomorian you should be able to get ~500, 210 from a green PvP artifact + 250 from the Dread Ring boon + 110 from a "Youth" belt and maybe some extra depending on your weapon and off hand.

    But my wizard doesn't feel like hanging a skull on his neck. And one of Dread Ring campaign's introduction quests involves stealing so unfortunately my wizard can't get any Dread Ring boon.

    Hmm, I don't recall any stealing in the intro. I thought it was kill these bad guys to help Celeste, kill these bad guys to help Makos, kill this big dude to get into Dread Ring. I don't think you have to finish all the daily quests either, just the mini dungeon and running the skirmish/non stealing dailies should get you enough scripts and scrolls to progress.

    I thought the Blood Raven Crystal Skull was just a glass ornament with magical powers? Not an actual skull, more like the tourist tat you buy in markets on holiday. You could RP putting it in your robe inner pocket instead of your neck, ie, the artifact in slot 1 is around your neck for quick access while the others are just next to you...can't access them to activate the power, but the stat buffing magic goes through your clothes?

    That quest is called Shatter, bestowed by NPC Xuna. Its objective: "Steal Token Shards from Thayans in Quarry (0/5)". And players need Thayan Cipher in order to get boons.

    Thanks for the suggestion. :)

    Seal of the Executioner is crit. It used to have another stat... but that was recovery and not regeneration, afaik. /nitpick

    Wrong. Used to be regen. Then it nerfed to less regen. Then it got "reworked" to crit.

    You can still get a Ring of preservation in the Pegasus dealer.

    The fact of the matter is regen is everywhere for a control wizard, but you refuse to use it, which isn't something a dev can fix. The raven artifact can EASILY be on of the other 2 slots that don't show on your character and you can change the skin of any armor/jewlery/belt to anything else. Also, for the record, you literally only "need" 1 quest in the dread ring daily, which is the dungeon quests for 5 scrolls (and the weekly 30 scrolls to make it quicker). Every other quest only rewards scripts, which can be obtained from the zone's bounty. Better yet, ignore that single quest and do the others.

Refusing to do an entire zone simply because 1 quest has "steal" in its description is just silly and stupid. That is why pers3phone sees you as a troll.
    Shatter is one of introduction quests. Players can't proceed without doing it.

    Archmage set has the same stats as HV just slightly lower ratings. You'll lose about 500 GS with it instead of HV and the set bonus is still really good.

    Thank you. Although doing things like so has disadvantages when there aren't enough RP options, it's glad to build your characters according to their principles/alignments and see them being persistent throughout their adventures. Therefore on the bright side, it can still be fun. :)
