So in one of my campaigns I'm playing as a level 14 merfolk urban barbarian who owns a restaurant that specializes in regenerating food (ie hydras, trolls etc) and his frequent contact with all of these regenerative fleshy bits has started to affect him physically. Basically he took all the "standard" fast healing things that he could find (celestial totem, regenerative vigor, fast healer feat, ring of regeneration and periapt of wound closure) to emulate this and it's been working for him quite well. The ring gives him magical healing each round, emulated by a 7th level spell effect, to give him "not fast healing" fast healing 14 while raging thanks to lesser celestial totem, actual fast healing 2 if he activates regenerative vigor, has 24 constitution (30 while raging) which gives a +3 to all forms of healing while not raging and +5 while raging and the periapt of wound closure doubles all of this healing meaning that while raging he has fast healing 52(1+13+5 +2+5=26x2). If he's not raging it's only fast healing 8(1+3=4x2) though.
While perfectly fine for any game ever, I feel like it's just not good enough. It can get even more ridiculous. How high can we theorycraft fast healing?

Why? What are your intentions? Imo you've already antagonized your gm with this for many levels and he is giving you a hint. He's also part of the problem and should be more careful what to allow and what putrid oily pus ridden CHEESE ought get Smote by the F~ING BANHAMMER! Kids don't exploit your gm and the raw.

For the sake of theorycrafting and nothing else. To be honest, the ring has made his job far too easy, so I'll probably give that up willingly within the next session or two. I would however be interested in seeing how far it could have gotten had I pursued it in earnest. Up until I received the ring it was only saving the party from using one or two cure spells so it wasn't really potent at all before then. Since it's going to drop back down to that soon anyway I was just curious as to what the numbers could have gotten up to.
