zealous mod

is the energy regeneration -1 used on you?

Yes, you lose 1 regen pip (so if you're a warrior then you would have only 1 regen), but you gain 1 enrgy each time your hit with an attack. If your weapon is fast, like a sword, axe, or shortbow then this can be very beneficial.

Correct as above. But I think a common misconception with the Zealous Mods are that they continuously bring your energy down as if you have a lot of bonds on you. This is not true. Since you always have a # of pips as energy regain you will only lose one pip making your energy regain slower.

Btw a great was to make up for this is to spam attacks that hit more than one foe. Ex. Barrage and Cyclone Axe.

Hope this helps.

Skills that hit more than once will trigger the zealous mod for every successful hit making skills like barrage + a zealous weapon very profitable.

Edit: sry my mistake thought i saw that on wiki but doesn't seem to be there. Was late when i posted this.

Not true Tijo. Each hit you make with a zealous mod DOES NOT steal energy from the opponent hit. You gain energy, but they don't lose any.
