regeneration also applied to shield regeneration?

[Descarn Dakh'har]

hello, when i skill sanctuary i get shield regeneration but its not listened to the stats (when u press esc). so does regeneration % increased from other skills also affect shield regeneration or is it only applied to hull reg?

Regeneration is a subclass of Recovery. Sanctuary is RECOVERY, but not regeneration. It is a separate stacking mechanic. It can be combined with the mod Regenerative Shields, which comes from the Regeneration tree. Once your shields can regenerate, they are affected by modifiers to regeneration and recovery rate.

In other words, Regeneration is Recovery, but Recovery is not Regeneration. Sanctuary and Shield Regeneration are two separate mechanics.

thx. does it make sence to get sanctuary + regenerative shields + regeneration + tempest for tanky burning star crush build?
or will is one of them enough? cause i dont feel a big difference. do they negate each other. what does then count?

[Descarn Dakh'har]

and on what exactly does 'passive regeneration' count?

In my opinion, running tempest and sanctuary is a good idea. I was running dying star, omni shield, sanctuary, tempest, all the regeneration mods I could manage, Hidden Power, running the Siphon shield, and was ramming my Sentinel class ship into boss and melting the entire screen.

Ultimately, I think tempest and sanctuary go hand in hand. Because they both have the same downside with the Shielf cooldown not happening until the shield goes down. So I took tempest because it decreased the cooldown recovery time by like 30% and on top of everything else that made it take like 2 seconds to recover in the worst case.

Only downside to my build I think is that Omnishield decimated my hull. So when my shield eventually dropped I couldn't holdout against the bullet hell long enough to get my shield back up. That or I need a lot more plating for when my hull does drop, or I need to increase my damage so that I can kill things fast enough to end bullet hell before it becomes and issue.

if recovery is not recovery could it get a different word? these kind of problems happen in deck building card games as well
