transphasics reducing the ability to heal shields sounds like the most broken addition yet. 90% or more of someones survivability in pvp relies on a persons ability to heal their shields and stack resists on them. if getting hit with transphasic mines reduces some ones ability to heal shields, you just removed 50% of their defense. you might as well double the amount of damage every weapon does in game, this change is THAT bad. |
Now, the chance to proc is 100%, but the magnitude is reduced to 25%, meaning that from swallowing a full cluster you will get a 100% magnitude debuff.
To me, this looks like a 40% reduction in effectiveness... no?
And for shield healing debuff, I love it! Survivability is way too high in STO! This will also be extra noticable for tanky cruisers and sciships. My escorts heals are close to useless anyway, and I live and die by my elusiveness/defence.
And better mines makes GW/tykens a better ability to pack, so it's actually a little buff to sci/cc

Before, you would typically be hit with 5 mines, each with a 33% chance of applying a 100% debuff, you would statistically receive a 166% magnitude debuff if eating a whole cluster.

Increased shield bleedthrough from 40% to 80%.
Transphasic mines will disrupt the enemy shields, leaving a Shield Healing debuff in place.
For 5sec after being hit with a TP Mine, Shield healing is 50% less effective on the target.
Shield Redistribution will also be less effective during this debuff.
Debuff magnitude does not stack, but multiple hits will extend the duration of the debuff.
More mines make for a longer debuff."
k, unless they forgot to mention a proc chance, theres a 100% chance of that happening per mine with the duraction stacking. with enough trans mines, you could basically cancel out a running EPtS and TT, wile also making the standard redistribute half as effective. if you cant kill someone that befuddled in less then 10 seconds, you are fail. as it looks now 50% of your ability to 'shield' in every way is removed with a 100% chance, concurrent stacking debuff. its complete insanity. if these mines have a proc chance higher then 10%,

Unfortunately, with these changes to the mines, I can only see this increasing the mine spam.
You were pretty much guaranteed a Chron proc on someone before, even with "just" a 33% chance. Now, with a 100% chance, everyone's going to be pumping out Chrons like no other.
And seeing how essential shield healing is to being any sort of effective, Transphasics are going to be churned out as well.
Not to say, though, that these changes are unwelcomed/unwanted. I definitely like the idea of giving weapon procs a revamp. It's just that these are going to pump out more mine spam instead of reducing it. Perhaps if these procs were instead applied to torpedoes...?
