Overview[]

Regeneration is a Scrapper, Brute, Stalker and Sentinel secondary power set.

Regeneration lets you regenerate more quickly from damage and effects.

Powers History[]

Badge time This section contains information about changes that took place in City of Heroes. It is provided for historical purposes.
  • Regeneration has been a long standing joke in the discussion of power "nerfs". This is mainly due to the fact that in early issues of the game regeneration was constantly changed. It was added to the Brute class in issue 21 .
  • Moment of Glory was originally a power which prevented all regeneration, took away almost all Hit Points, and lasted for 195 seconds. After that, the buff of the power faded, leaving you with little health and no regeneration for a short while. The new version, introduced shortly after Issue 11, lasts 20 seconds and has no Hit Point penalty or crash.
