Regen is awesome, and will always be awesome for a Shaman.

Since we're talking fungi vs. vindi chest, I'm going to assume the Shaman has Torpor.

Once you have Torpor, regen loses some value. You no longer have to wait for your health in order to canni - so regen serves to speed up recovery in low intensity situations, and to change the amount of ground humping you can do before you torpor.

I would wear the vindi chest 100% of the time if I had one - the 100hp in itself is an extra canni IV, and it takes ~7 ticks from a fungi to equal a single canni IV tick. It's not that the vindi is absolutely better in this situation, it's that it's close enough to the fungi in terms of practical benefit that I would rather have on the Vindi and have resists, AC, and health at my disposal (more useful in a scary situation) instead of regen (useful in sustained, controlled situations).

Edit: not to mention, higher max hp = higher hp once you get down to the level where you aren't wasting Torpor ticks. Getting down to the point where you aren't wasting ticks can be low enough to be risky depending on the content you're doing.
