"Zerg bases spread creep, a biological substance that nourishes and sustains the Swarm’s colonies. Creep heals zerg units and provides them with a movement speed bonus." (http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/game/race/zerg/) I've searched the forums, the internet, and even the SC2 editor looking for more information on this subject, but my query eludes me. Does anyone know if Zerg Hp regeneration is increased on creep in SC2, and if so by how much? | ||

If you want to see this for yourself, place a Spine Crawler on Overlord Creep and then remove the Overlord. The crawler will constantly lost HP, but periodically regain 1 HP. It's hard to notice. Interesting, but it doesn't answer my question. | ||

Now for the real answer to your question, just have an Ultralisk on creep and one off. Shoot them both. Which one reaches full HP first? Question answered. True, this would answer my question, and I know about the passive regeneration regardless of creep, but I'm a perfectionist and I'm really looking for exact data. | ||

Yes, Zerg units do NOT regenerate faster on creep. One unanswered question is whether or not different Zerg units regenerate at different rates, i.e. will a 1/2 HP Ultralisk recover to full HP faster or slower than a 1/2 HP Hydralisk? | ||

1: Ask less questions. 2: Dick around with the editor more. It's not like you don't have it installed. 3: Post more answers. Thank you. | ||

Good to know Blizzard gives out false information on official web pages, that's really encouraging. You just make yourself look immature and negative by speaking this way. You bely a lack of knowledge of just how many people work on the game and the official sites and how little things like this can slip through the cracks without anyone intending it. I hate to admonish you more than necessary but... Grow up. There's a difference between lying and making a small mistake. Also, I'm not sure why this seems to ruin your life. Also, it's spelled "liar." | ||

Oh god, an Ultra regenerating to full health as fast as a Zergling would be so imba. But, as a Zerg player, awesome. | ||

Why can't you be happy to know that Blizzard is always changing their game to please people that are whining about things being "imba" or such. With so many changes to track, it would be hard to update every portion of the site. For all we know the description of the creep is for lore purposes. | ||
