Personal shield indestructability bug/exploit

Postby ZLO_RD » 24 Mar 2014, 23:21

when you turn personal shield off and then on it start ~5 sec recharge, during that time unit is indestructible
obsidian, harbringer, aeon/sera/uef support coms, titans, uef/aeon acu, and everything with personal shield not receave any damage during that time

i guess this recharge can happen by itself when you powerstalls and you loose shield and power goes up again
