The Regenerator looks almost exactly like the [[Bubble Shield]], although instead of projecting a shield, it emits a small, green field of energy which restores a player's [[shield]] as well as those of anybody near you, including enemies, for fifteen seconds. There is, however, a small delay before beginning the recharge, which means the player is still vulnerable. Although you may be healed quickly and may have a better chance at surviving a one-on-one battle, you can still get killed with a [[headshot]] (with a [[Sniper Rifle]]) or close range with a [[Shotgun]].

It also is less effective if many enemies are firing at you. It is the exact opposite of the Power Drain and when it is used in the same area as a Power Drain, the Power Drain overpowers the Regenerator. Other ways in which the Regenerator is different from the Power Drain is that the Regenerator remains rooted in the same spot where it is deployed while the Power Drain can move around if the player kicks it.

*If you throw a Regenerator and a [[Power Drain]] together, your shields will drop, even if the Regenerator is closer. This is because the effect of the Power Drain will overwhelm the effect of a Regenerator.
