i find i use rsp as a more 'reserve' power than others, mainly due to its massive effect and long cd. i also find i only use it at lt level...

so what if its cd was reduced to 90~60 seconds
the magnitude of the regen cut in exchange for duration
but, most importantly, to balance its large shield regen it caused an increase in shield bleed-through?

at lt +40% bleed 15sec uptime
at lt cmdr + 35% 17.5sec uptime
at cmdr +25% bleed 20sec uptime

allowing the power to keep its potentially massive shield heal but at the cost of shield integrity and needing better hull resists.

these are just 'off the top of my head numbers to get the idea across, more than well thought out numbers.

In other words let's gave another advantage for federation ships toward other faction's.I say leave it as it is now.

Let's imagine a federation escort being hit by a romulan warbird.Fed raise RSP, has some bleed trough ,hull gets some damage and 5 human boff instant heal the damage.Warbird is in big trouble now.

Some ships can run AuxtoBat builds and with a lower cd on rsp i wonder how it would be for example to fight against such a ship of course having 5 human boffs and federation elite weapons using FAW.

PS:I am using romulan instead kdf in my example so who is reading have a better perspective

I agree with this and it allows for the feds to now benefit from not only the clearly unintended leadership trait consequence, but they now are able to chain RSP.

lets.
instead of taking normal hull damage(+/- none really) and getting its shields topped off,
its now getting its shield topped off at a slower rate and is subject to +40% bleed on to of the shields current bleed, and since it hasnt got the slots for hull heals/resists, it ends up with less hull



i dont see why using some beta release nonsense that itself should be fixed, to justify not correcting other powers that seem to have an odd cost/benefit measure to them.

this beta release stuff is really getting on my nerves.
