Regen Bugs were first sold at the Grand Auction of 5123, where three types were made available themed around the three moons of Liabo, Lornon, and Tilaok:

  • Liabo: an enruned white ora scarab
  • Lornon: an enruned black ora scarab
  • Tilaok: an enruned eahnor scarab

Wearing or removing the Regen Bug will injure to the wearer. When worn, it provides an enhancive boost to Health Recovery, Mana Recovery, and Stamina Recovery. It also shows up in the features of the character wearing it. They were designed and coded by GM Naiken. Unlike other enhancive items, the Regen Bug never needs to be recharged, and it will show as having 999/999 charges via Loresong.
