Fills one of the more obvious holes in the IO sets

How often are new sets put out? I haven't seen new ones in quite some time, admittedly, I haven't used all of them, lol. I really do like the IO sets, especailly for non-melee squishy type heroes, really helps out.

I'm not sure what to call this one - "wellness" sort of fits (without touching "fitness,") but I don't particularly care for the sound of it.

None of these have a regen component, fyi.
And I'm unsure concerning the suggestion itself. I feel like having to make the choice of sacrificing certain elements of a power for the sake of certain set bonuses is a good thing. It's no different than some IO sets focusing more on recharge, or accuracy, or damage.

And I'll counter that by pointing at the "Accurate" and "Recharge Intensive Pet" sets that were introduced not that long ago - where before you did have to sacrifice something for those if you wanted to use them in (say) Transfusion, Controller pets, Extracted Essence and the like.

How about "Recuperation" for a category or set name.

Afraid I don't see the need for this category.

I'm not sure what to call this one - "wellness" sort of fits (without touching "fitness,") but I don't particularly care for the sound of it.
What is the category for? Those powers that boost both Regen and Recovery. This would let those powersets that have this type of power get a full set in there.
Quick (as in off the top of my head) rundown for powers:
Accelerate Metabolism
Speed Boost
Adrenaline Boost
Heat Loss (IIRC)
Drain Psyche
Physical Perfection
Hibernate
Painbringer
... and I'm sure I'm missing a few. Regardless, this is a set that would be usable by multiple ATs.
I don't think this would need to be a large category. Three sets - no purples necessarily (though I wouldn't argue, it'd have to be a fourth set.)
Early set: Five pieces. Recharge, Recovery, Heal (for the regen,) Rec/Reg, and a global. (What the global would be, I'll admit, I'm still kicking around. More recharge would be useful, but I'd rather not have the set be all about being another LOTG.)
The later sets (30+) would be a bit different. One would be more about bringing the powers back (recharge enhancement) and perhaps a little END reduction. The other would be for powers like Drain Psyche that could use some accuracy. I'd put that in here instead of having an "Accurate" set.
Bonuses - Haven't really thought through. The second later set (with accuracy) I could see having split DEF buffs (one set of melee/s/l at 3, the other set at 6 pieces) just because of Drain Psyche working at melee range. Other than that (and no "debt reduction," thanks) it's pretty much up for grabs.
