Heal and Nano Delta
The Nano and Heal Delta describes the natural regeneration of your Nano and Healthpoints. This process is very slow in the beginning levels of the game but reasonably effective for endgame characters. There are two factors in these healing rates that need to be kept in mind: The time between healing ticks, or Tickrate, and the amount healed on each tick, or Value.
When a character sits down, HP Delta Value doubles, but Nano Delta Value remains the same.
Tickrate
Increasing Delta Tickrate is notably more effective than increasing Body Development and thus Delta Value (amount) because the time between ticks can be lowered (and thus the rate increased) by a much larger degree than Delta Value.
Tickrate at 780 Psychic is fourteen times faster than at 5-59 Psychic.
The situation is reversed when it comes to items. There are no items that raise delta Tickrates, but numerous and effective ones for delta Values.
Nanodelta Tickrate is affected by Psychic
Healdelta Tickrate is affected by Stamina
Nanodelta Breakpoints:

Healdelta Caps:

This results in the following formulas for the tickrate calculation:
- Nanodelta tickrate : Tick period = 28 - 2 * ( PSYCHIC / 60 )
- Healdelta tickrate : Tick period = 29 - ( STAMINA / 30 )
Value: Delta Amount
The amount of healing is determined by the level of your Body Development skill and any items that add to the HealDelta or NanoDelta abilities. Deltas are raised one point for every 100 points of Body Development. Items and Buffs that raise Nano and Healdelta directly, for example Jobe Clusters in Implants, tend to be more effective. Nano Cost Reduction items and implants are even more effective.
Compared with Tickrate, Value is raised less with Improvement Points and more with items: at Body Development 1000, it is raised at most, six times (Atrox Nano Delta and Nanomage Heal Delta 6x, 41/3x for Solitus and Opifex, 3.5x Atrox Heal Delta and Nanomage Nano Delta)

Every Breed has a basevalue:
Breed | Nanodelta | Healdelta |
Atrox | 2 | 4 |
Solitus | 3 | 3 |
Opifex | 3 | 3 |
Nanomage | 4 | 2 |
On top of this you gain 1 point for each 100 points of Body Dev.
Therefore you get the following formulae:
- Nano regeneration amount = Breed Nanodelta basevalue + (BodyDev / 100) + items and buffs
- Health regeneration amount = Breed Healdelta basevalue + (BodyDev / 100) + items and buffs
