Message: <blockquote data-quote="MostlyHarmless42" data-source="post: 8538274" data-attributes="member: 6845520">I am currently playing a character with fast healing in a Ravnica game. I'm playing a Simic Hybrid and the DM let me switch out both racial "adaptations" for it at level 5. The mechanics we use are that I regain hit points at the start of my turn equal to my proficiency bonus, so long as I have not taken narcotic damage the round before (this could be any damage type, we just chose necrotic) and as long as I have not been reduced to 0 health. It prevents the auto stabilize concern and isn't NEAR as potent in combat as people think, given that monsters definitely outpace the regen. It is however quite powerful out of combat and basically means I start every fight at full HP and never need to use hit dice. Currently I don't have any abilities that allow me to spend it dice on other Bonuses, so it's not a problem, though that could be an issue for some builds. Additionally our group rarely does multiple fights per day, so it definitely would be more potent if our group was more a traditional dungeon delving group.Do I think it is in anyway broken? No. Not really, so long as you set a damage type that gets around it, keep the regen low, and prevent it from working at 0 hp (evenme monsters work this way so it's not without precedent). It is however a hell of a powerful racial and anything you stick it on shouldn't get much else. It could also work well as a racial feat or half feat, pending on your group. Your milage may vary.</blockquote>
