also i admit i do like to use sci chars in sci ships and you dont really want sensor scan without aux.

also its just personal preference i suppose. i rather have different power setting and switch than 125 in 3 of them and 0 in aux. i cant deny that it might be highly effective i just dont like it. and especially a sci ship without aux... even if you dont need it it just doesnt feel right for me. a sci ship should have at least some aux :p

I wonder if this is considered "a little OP" to help sell it or alot OP, and it will sell better.

EPS consoles and skill affect how quickly your aux cycles back so there's actually plenty of time to lay off the A2B to recover enough for aux heals, and when you do you will still have EPTA up. With a single copy of A2B I was actually dumping EPS so the bonus to the other subs was still lingering at like 13 sec. 2 copies are ridiculous and should have EPS pumped, imo.

And there's a bug on tribble that will solve that problem completely when it goes live, lol.

I have noticed that (in my key bind) that when it starts the cycle with EPTA + runs keybind + ends with ATB1, that after the ATB has taken effect (lowered Aux to 0) and then lapsed the effects of EPTA will kick back in and buff my Aux for a time.

Its as if the EPTA goes into effect, gets sucked dry by ATB and then comes back after ATB wheres off for a time.

and this ship will be the one that does not die to the maxim debuff and spike in the game?

im sorry, ive popped everyone from "so and so" in TSI to "so and so" in Enter generic fleet name. no matter what you run.

mt does it at will. so does aytanhi. and i think yoda sips tea and meditates while killing. he is that smooth. you think naz won't be popping these things like teenage pimples right out the gate?

.....

its a team game guys. sometimes it takes 2 to take down 1. sometimes it takes 3. but it all comes down to buff stripping, crowd control, spike damage, and timing. and if what you did the first time does not work, then play defensive and observe for 2 minutes. it is a supprising long window to evaluate your surroundings.

Insta popping happens all the time. Just like the man says.

I mean I've never seen it done, but i've HEARD about it. Or maybe I've actually heard the sound it makes.

Happy flying.
