Monstrous Regeneration

Mr.Moloch

Monstrous Regeneration currently heals 18 HP over 6 rounds or 3 hp * ((1/2 caster level) + 1).

Its a 5th level spell - compared to 4th level Cure Critical Wounds (4d8 + 10) which is an average of 30 HP a pop.

This is a clearly inferior spell, I'd suggest it gets its duration doubled and heals 4 HP / round. That would allow it to heal 40 HP (which at least makes it about as useful as CCW while taking up a higher spell slot with the positive that it heals a little more and you can do other things while it runs in the back ground.

I could be talked into other options, even a 5 HP a round so its mimicking troll regeneration and heals 50 HP.

Just some thoughts to make it more interesting.

I think it's even worse than Moloch makes it look.

problem 1:
amount is low. (as Moloch demonstrated)

problem 2:
if you are full, it's wasted.

problem 3:
if you need healing, this isn't going to be enough.

problem 4:
Doesn't deliver on theme: it ends so quick that I don't feel like a monster that regenerates.

I think we should increase duration, decrease base amount, and increase regen amount as (current HP / max HP) drops.
Something like 1/round initially, 2/round below 75%, 3/round below 50%, 5/round below 25%, 10/round below 10%.
Then cap it at any total amount you see fit, but only count actual healing that happened.

Could potentially make it start granting temp HP after you hit max.

Or provide a higher amount of healing over an even greater amount of time. Not for a total of 50 HP, but a multitude of that.

It's a level V spell. It should be highly impactful.
