Why low if the character does not even seem damaged at all

They're still damaged tho? That's why they're not at full HP

Think for example like in the Gamer. Mc could have 1 hp remaining and he still looks ok regardless of the fact that one stray hit will kill him.

Their body is not damaged. Regeneration is based on regeneration OF THE BODY

I mean, if this verse treats HP as an abstract like manifestation or something, then no clue lol

I mean in general hp should be considered abstract existence cuz ur body cant get damaged only hp

Eh I would still prefer it being regeneration but no idea of what scale depending on how fast you can do it.

A bunch of verse actually have "hurt sprites" when the characters have low hp, so this just seems at best to be a verse-specific thing

Yeah it's mostly a thing of convenience either in video games or series portrayed within video games.

I think it’s low because while it’s not always visible they are hurt that is why knockouts in real life happen after all

It depends on what they're regenerating from. As others have brought up, it's usually just low tier regeneration, but if the character's model/sprite shows the wounds inflicted by things like piercing projectiles, or you're playing a text-based game that explains what did they take damage from and how did it affect their body and they can still regenerate from it, then you can put it at a higher tier.

I'd call it healing instead of regeneration.

He doesnt have any damaged sprites though, only hp is displayed as low

Still super fast Low regeneration. High regen would imply he can regenerate from a single molecule, which isn't the case with the context you provided.

That's probably more a game limitation than something intended from the developers.

He is still recovering from injury faster then normal provided hp actually refers to being hurt

U got a point... To some extent.
But I still think this aint even tied to regeneration.. No damaged sprite (not damaged in the first place)

What injury? Abstract injury? Or real injury?

The character gets erased from existence after death. How about such an example? (Minecraft, Terraria)

Okay game mechanics but what level of regen if the sprite does not seem damaged, wouldnt that mean no regen?

Both have have other regen justifications and even then they are still recovering from injury faster than most characters in verse correct?

What are they recovering from lmao damage dealt to their body or an abstract concept

Personally I usually put this at High-Low, if being scratched by the next attack will kill them then clearly something's up we can't quite see

game mechanic, as you've already been told - i don't think clinging to this one point will get you anywhere.
terraria, for example, has no damaged sprites, and yet there are dialogue options with the nurse where she mentions you missing an arm or having half of your head blown off

Super WorldBox? (Regeneration Trait) Clash of Clans? (Healer) Brawl stars? (Passive healing)
