Regen on an AV pretty much forces a team to bring along debuffers, especially if you jack it up to extreme to give him Revive, as it'll have IH which lasts all the time. Add that to his AV level regen and it can be ridiculous.
Not that I thing self rezzes on an AV are necessarily bad, mind. It's just that as the custom critter powers work right now, you have to make the AV ridiculously hard to kill to give it to them.
Do what you want.
The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.

Yeah, like I thought, Regen might be a bit overkill. I'll look at what else I can give him, then. Even with I15's custom power selection, they still get Fast Healing, which I hear on an AV is kind of nuts.
Short answer, don't do it. Though all things considered, at least you wouldn't be giving them... Resurgence... *shudder*

This.
If this is a mission for public consumption, you will probably get as many low ratings for an underpowered AV as you would for an overpowered one, so build it for yourself and get ready to take the flak (assuming anyone ever finds your arc to run it).
If you're making an arc for members of your SG to run, then you should have a better idea what they like and what they're capable of. If they like setting the difficulty-meter to 5, then max that bad boy out. If they regularly run on Heroic, then what the heck, max him out anyway - teach them what a hard fight is! 
That said, I would go with either Regen OR Rez, not both, if that's possible.

Do what you want, but make sure you warn people that there's a kill-ya boss that will keep rez-ing on them. That way people (like me) that hate fighting kill-yas, even once, can be sure to avoid it like the plague.

Title says a lot, but here's how it is: I'm designing a custom group, and it has a custom AV meant to be fought at the end of the arc. I want this AV to actually be someone tough, as they are a signature member of the custom group... but I'm wondering if giving them Revive might be a bit on the "too much" side.
In fact, while I'm at it, what about Regen for an AV at all? That seems kind of like cheating, now that I think about it.
Any suggestions?
