Rule number 1 is a negative rule: Do not, on a regen, build for more regen.
Build for fat bags of recharge, and then defense, either s/l or melee. You choose, but do not need more of what you are already swimming in.
Typically, 32.5% melee (or s/l) defense is shot for to be able to reach 45% (softcap) with 1 luck inspiration. That's just a starting point to keep in mind, however.
Notable sets: Touch of death, obliteration, doctored wounds, LotG (not full sets, however), and performance shifter (procs for QR and Stamina).
If you're building for s/l defense, reactive armors in tough (and, if you have the slots, resilience) are good choices.
5 Doctored wounds in your 3 regen clickies. You won't need them in integration or FH, though.
MoG needs moar recharge. and it's a good place for a LotG 7.5% rech. One of those with a rech/def LotG, and 2 rech IOs will get you some extra regen, and hard-ED rech enhancement.
Also, consider actually getting the accolades (and turning them on in mids). They make a pretty big difference in endurance management and they ease the road to hp cap (hp accolades plus dull pain plus 1 hp set bonus = cap, yay)
Lastly: Consider soul mastery for Shadow Meld. It's all the rage these days with resistance (and regen) based toons. It's basically another MoG-style alpha soaker that can have a very nice uptime with enough recharge.
Gotta run to class now >.< Either I or someone else will finish later.

Attacks aren't slotted because I haven't decided whether positional or typed defense would be better in this case. It's something to look at, however.

Don't build for regen, unless there is nothing else useful you can gain for the slots you're using.
Like Fast Healing for example. Chances are, you probably aren't going to need more recovery, so you can go ahead and put Numina's in there for the regen bonus, because none of the other heal sets offer anything useful.
