HP regen broken?

[durandin2000]

After spending a good amount of time playing i noticed that we are supposed to slowly recover hp naturally. and yes of course there is the rings that make it faster.

however in the number of games i have played since getting this game never once have i noticed my health recover on its own. in early stages its supposed to be something like 1 per 12 sec. never seen it work. later stages with a ring 1 per 2 sec. never seen it work. read the forums about the vampire doublet. never found one on that run i actually made it to the baron. so me thinks this is seriously bugged.

Is Hunger disabled? Hunger has to be enabled for natural regen w/o a ring to regenerate.
Dragon' Mail also gives ring of regen effect (Stacks with ring of regen.)

Yep, regen is disabled when hunger is off, as food instead heals you. This prevents the dominant strategy from being: stand-in-corner, walk away, come back with full HP, which hunger normally keeps from being a good plan.

I am in a game with hunger disabled, and the Ring of Regeneration is also not functioning.

I was going to wait until loading the game to see if it still wasn't working, but since this topic presented itself.....heh
