History Main / GradualRegeneration

* ''{{Wizardry}}'' series: wearing the Ring of Healing or Lord's Garb slowly healed lost HitPoints.

* From ''TalesOfSymphonia'' on, TP can be regained in the TalesSeries by attacking enemies physically. Watch in horror as your SquishyWizard runs up to punch the Giga Dragon in the face after blowing his load on Meteor Swarm spells. There are also equippable items that give characters regeneration, that [[CombatExclusiveHealing inexplicably only works while in battle]].

* ''TeamFortress2'': the Medic has passive health regeneration. It can be decreased or increased depending on the weapons in his loadout.

* ''[[{{Ptitlei015gc004kw4}} Pokemon]]'': the Leftovers and Black Sludge (for Poison-type Pokemon) items, the moves Ingrain and Aqua Ring, and the abilities Rain Dish, Ice Body, Dry Skin (which rely on weather conditions for regeneration), and Poison Heal (which relies on the Poisoned Status Effect).

** ''FinalFantasyXII'' has abilities to get MP when losing health, killing an enemy, and hitting an enemy with a physical or magical attack. MP also regenerates gradually if you [[WalkItOff walk around]].

* The RPG-influenced TowerDefense game ''Cursed Treasure'' has both Mana Pools, which speed MP regen if you build on them, and the Mana Extraction skill, which does the same thing without requiring any particular building pattern.

* ''LastScenario'' has two spells, one that slowly regenerates HP and one that regenerates MP. The latter is AwesomeYetPractical, as the cost is very low and the amount regenerated each turn is rather generous.

** Ingrain also prevents the user from being switched out from play, so it requires a little strategy on the trainer's part to ensure that they don't trap their Pokemon in a bad situation. It does, however, prevent being switched out from Whirlwind or Roar, which is invaluable when catching roaming Legendaries.

* In ''LegendOfDragoon'', the DefendCommand also provides HP regeneration whenever it is used, making it a vital combat tactic throughout the game.

* [[KingdomHearts Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]] uses this for its Cura and Curaga abilities. Cura has health recover temporarily every few seconds, while Curaga has a similar effect, except it creates an area in which all allies receive the health recovery

* In MegaManZXAdvent, your Weapon Energy is always regenerating.
* There are item that do this in KingdomOfLoathing, ranging from the Ring of Half-Assed Regeneration [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin (occasionally regain a few hit points)]] to the Heart Of The Volcano (20 HP and MP per adventure).
