Regeneration and Very Fit?

[Samaster]

In a recent campaign of mine, a couple of my players got both Regeneration (1/sec, FP only) and Very Fit, and i was wondering if the whole "Recover FP at twice normal speed" applies with regeneration

It does not stack at all like that.

Alright, thank you for the clarification

So how would Very Fit and any level of Regeneration (FP or FP Only) work?

You'd get the higher regeneration rate for FP, +2 for HT rolls, and you'd lose FP at half the normal rate. There is a post by Kromm stating that Regeneration and Rapid Healing don't interact in any way and it's reasonable to assume that Regeneration for Fatigue Points interact similarly. (Still trying to find the post to link here.) Of course, if your Regeneration doesn't work about some threats (like some modern interpretations of the werewolf) then Rapid Healing suddenly becomes very useful because it increases your natural healing rate against threats your Regeneration advantage do not cover.

Seems like a candidate for Alternative Abilities, BTW.

I have disagree with Ghostdancer on this one. If the FP to be recovered is mundane FP use (not spell-casting of fueling powers/esoteric skills) both Advantages should apply.

With Regeneration (which includes Rapid Healing), I allow Very Rapid Healing for 10 points (the difference between Rapid Healing and Very Rapid Healing) to double regeneration speed (more accurately, to add HP/10, rounded down to a minimum of 1) to the number of HP they recover per interval. With the pricing structure of Regeneration, it's perfectly balanced to do so. I see no reason to treat Very Fit any differently.

Not RAW at all. RH and VRH work "wen you roll to recover lost HP" and you never roll to use Regeneration. It just happens.

Rapid Healing could work in parallel with Regneration but there would be no synergy per the RAW. You may construct House rules as you please of course.
