I don't understand the mod description... or maybe I do understand but dont see how this is possible or realistic/feasible?

in what scenario would you be receiving dmg for 5 mins constantly? wont dmg stop eventually? or won't you be out of red alert during that period of time? even your shields regen after a few seconds of no dmg...

    [HPP]? Each instance of it(yes it can stack) has a 50% chance to trigger each time you take damage. Then it lasts a few minutes after triggering.

    is that what it means? cause the description on the armor itself is totally jacked...

    "Gives a 5% chance to heal +77.7 Hit Points when receiving damage for 5 minutes"

    cause the "when receiving damage FOR 5 minutes" is a bit iffy. Maybe move the "For 5 minutes" to the start of the description. /shrug

    LOL! That does look odd.

    Thanks -- I've been reading "for x minutes" on ground gear for years now and never figured out what they meant. So:

    - every time you take damage there is x% change for < effect > to be triggered / proc
    - once the < effect > is finally triggered, it keeps working for x minutes, on all future damage during that period

    It all makes sense now. Learn something new every year :)
