I run gunlogi's a lot and my PC fitting has a Heavy Shield Booster and it's all about timing.
If your not getting any shields it means you took damage as you activated it and or within the 1.00 Sec Pulse interval which gives you the bonus shields
If it was made so that it activated instantly as well as it had no Pulse interval then it could be OP since it gives such a large amount of shields back

Umm not at all, or at least on the HAV side of things prior hotfix bravo damage modded gunlogi's ruled the battle field being able to kill any tank in 3-4 shots
Now it takes much more skill to operate HAV's and if an HAV operator runs an armor tank he is highly immobile unless given a fuel injector but even the Armor HAV's doesn't have a good enough turn speed to out strafe the Shield HAV.

If it was made so that it activated instantly as well as it had no Pulse interval then it could be OP since it gives such a large amount of shields back The point of the shield booster IS to give you instantaneous shield. That's how it works in EVE. Shield boosters provide shield at the beginning of each pulse, while armor reps provide armor at the end of each pulse. There's absolutely no reason why the shield booster should ever fail to grant shield.
Sadly not everything works in the same fashion in dust as it does in eve however if they made it so it never fails to grant shield it will be just another 1 up for shield tankers which I wouldn't mind since I generally run one now a'days.

I will clarify to say compared to 1.8 HAVing takes more skill....... if you could even call what is required skill..... but ever since 1.6....there has not been any skill in HAV operation.
Could you elaborate on why HAV require no skill anymore? I still believe that it still takes a lot of skill, however not as much as it used to.
