Those Shamans who generally have someone else taking the hits are better-served with a regeneration racial ability.

Frontal Stun Immunity is still great in groups. If you are the CCer, root breaks happen. Slow generates a lot of agro, and mobs can sometimes move over to you. Troll regen is even less effective in groups when you are not being hit. 2-3 Torpors will regen your entire health pool (unless you are BiS geared with aego, then 4 maybe). This means you have less time under max hp, because you are not getting hit. You are only losing HP to Canni, and therefore regen even less than solo play.

The regen is still better used in solo play, during long fights such as WW dragons. In a 15 minute fight, you get 1200hp, which is a nice little boost. But again, from much solo experience, I find the Frontal Stun Immunity more of a lifesaver, since a bad set of Torpor interrupts means death.
