No but really this isn't for a troll, but a good example of 2 mechanics that I don't understand.
1) How is he alive with 0 shield and 0 armor?
2) How the KITTEN does his shield regen like it did? (<2 seconds from armor depletion, or <8 seconds after last shield HP takes damage) |

Dude did you not read my post? the only way this is possible is if the recharge counts down the split second after the SHIELD stops taking damage. Which I'm willing to grant is a possibility, but my assumption up until now has been that the 'suit' has to stop taking damage. IOW, you have to completely be in cover to get your shield back once it is gone. I totally understand that skills reduce the time, and recharger modules do as well. That's not my point. Once again, it is about whether or not the depletion timer can be reset by additional fire. |

Broken hit detection compounds the issue.
Nope. You can see based on when his HP changes in his own indicator WHEN he takes damage. You start counting after the shield drops to 0. It's 8 seconds. When armor drops to 0 it's like 1.7 seconds. This leads me to believe that shield depletion timer recharge starts immediately after taking your last bit of shield damage and armor damage doesn't matter.
...That's just a huge revelation for me.... Maybe nobody else... |

Here is one of CEO Pyrex's more recent videos queued up for two back to back shield depletion scenarios.
It looks like the guy running is a minmatar proto assault suit maybe? Unsure of the basic stats atm...anyway...
Scenario 1: he loses shield at 2:38 and starts regenning at 2:42 (4 seconds)
Scenario 2: he loses shield at 2:43 and his shield doesn't even regen 1 HP as the screen fades at 2:52 (9 seconds)
Scenario 2 shouldn't be possible if it's always counting down from when your shield starts to take damage, unless he actually did regen shield, that never showed because it was insta killed...? |
