I'll explain the build if you're interested why i did what. To put it very quickly, this is the damage per time of each attack but also factoring in arcanatime. Which means when someone is standing still, like in fightclub and melee duels, you want to do as much damage in as little time as you can. These numbers are taken off mids without any enhancements, the animation times were taken from CoH, then i had to include arcanatime for each one individually.

Attack...Damage / animation time = DPS
Quick strike...81.7 / 0.924 = 88.4 DPS
Body blow...107.6 / 1.188 = 90.5 DPS
Smashing blow...103.3 / 1.32 = 78.3 DPS
Repulsing torrent...178.5 / 2.112 = 84.5 DPS
Burst...208 / 2.772 = 75 DPS
Focused burst...169 / 2.112 = 80 DPS
Concentrated strike...441.2 / 2.904 = 151 DPS

This means smashing blow and burst are bad, body blow is the 2nd best, quick strike is pretty good and CS is just plain OP in every single way. The build i provide uses focused burst rather than repulsing torrent because of 2 reasons. First, you want Apoc and devast IOs for their awesome regeneration and hp bonuses, and 2nd, the recharge is of focused burst is low enough that against colds or slows or whatever comes your way, you will still have a perfect attack chain. Just looking at it breifly it may be...CS/quick/body/quick/focused burst/quick/body/quick and restart. That should work, and i gave you sharks for ranged toons, but mostly for apoc and devast again.

The build has 794% regeneration, having three 16% (2 apoc and 1 soulbound), five 12% (3 numina and 2 devast), and finally five 10% (1 LotG, 1 shield wall, 3 panaceas). I assume you know the rule of 5 bonuses so i aimed for just about as much as i could without including 8% regen bonuses which would wreck your attacks. You have 67.4 hp/sec which is what most people have with DP on, but with DP on you jump to 79.9 hp/sec. Which is extremely good for a regen. I believe i've only seen 2 regens that have passed 80 hp/sec without sacraficing everything for it.

Your HP is 2048, some may see this as useless as you hit cap with DP, but it isn't always on. I usually beat regens once their DP drops, it's as if they are squishy again. Therefore with a very high HP, no matter what you are not squishy. Actually the most survivable regens i have ever seen had a lot of resistence and a lot of health, usually around 1900, and you instead have 2048. You also have 46.9 resistence to S/L (not DRed).

Recon has perfect heal/rech %s, DP is lacking a little tiny bit of recharge but your massive amount of hp makes up for that. IH is lacking a bit of recharge but you never use it twice against another regen, while MoG has a perfect recharge as well. Your end will be perfectly fine as you have low end consumption/high recovery/MoG for end. IMO your chance of hitting people will be fine too. There's Power siphon and other regens don't have defense anyway. That is obviously who you are currently losing to.

Your damage should be very good, since your attacks reflect the DPS i showed at the beginning.while having good Dmg %s and then procs accordingly. If you look at the top attacks and their DPS, you can see why Burst is a good set mule but horrible attack in a duel.

Also, most people think recharge is the only way to go, but in fact it isn't and the only reason i get recharge on a regen is for my damage and attacks. It doesn't matter if recon comes back 3-5 seconds earlier than normal if you have this much hp and regen. Let's say you have 55 hp/sec in zone with this, that means within 12 seconds you have healed as much as recon would but you didn't need to stop attacking or waste a single heal. Regen over recharge for dueling.

Even if you don't use this build, i've had a few friends who have been bugging me to build a km/regen for them, so i'll just direct them to this page. I would be surprised to see this KM/Regen build lose in a duel, not before KM gets nerfed anyway, hopefully it will.

I'm very tempted to take a slot from hasten and put another numina in integration to make you hit over 80 hp/sec, but as a regen and not having the best recharge in the world...you need it.

Good luck.

Or, you could do some work, post your own, tell me your build's goals and I'll tell you where you can optimize, free of charge.
