Regen is very good actually. A lot of people will tell you to do Willpower but Willpower can't reach the same level of regen that Regen can, however due to its typed defense and more resistance it is better in that regard. Also powers like HPT increase its performance since you have an auto power that allows for more HP which increases regen rate.

You can't go wrong with either, but if you plan on using IO sets, Willpower is definitely the better choice.

Are you talking about switching secondaries? You can't, a respec only lets you select powers out of the sets you picked at creation and power pools you picked up.

Now if you are creating a new toon then regen does work, it is a nice set for a scrapper like stalker. Though I prefer my stalkers to have defense to fall back on when I solo.

I would think that the Regen from Regen, along with its click powers, would lend itself to a hit-and-run sort of stalking. Not sure, though, never played it, but that's what it seems like it would be. If you like that, go ahead.

/regen stalker pretty much plays the same as it does on a scrapper. You have less HP, but also a bit more defense, so you can more easily get good defenses on your stalker, which makes up for the smaller HP. Excellent Mez Protections, and many clickable abilities you can use to tilt the battle in your favor.

The biggest strike against it is the Stalker HP cap, which greatly diminishes the effect of dull pain to the point where it's barely more than a really big heal. It doesn't double your life like it does on a scrapper. That said, my stalker melees with the best of them just fine.

For best results, you'll want to pick up Hasten. Regen has a lot of clicks, and Hasten helps make them come back faster. It'll greatly increase your survivability beyond anything else I could think to mention.
