well being able to do some more pvp without crashing (poor laptop is growing icky) I still can't say I feel the effect much on me. On lower levels it can be good because of the lack of BO powers, but at higher level I cannot see the use.

For me my fed cruiser has 1 copy of HE and enough other hull heals to last and my klingon bop has a double copy of HE and also lasts with ease.

half of the time I don't even notice it till it is at like 4-5 seconds on my cruiser, mainly because incoming damage I get anyway so I am tanking it already and the HP doesn't add much more than perhaps the fact I need to use an eng team more often.

I like the changes they are doing to torpedo spread. I have a BO w/ spread 3 and it does really well imo... so perhaps no need for HY all the time.

Thats kind of my point, the secondary damage isnt overly obnoxious, but it still is something that is to be considered. Its a trade-off.
