Science Team Feature Request

Science Team clears all plactates, but activating it against other players in PvP before an Attack will not immune you from an Automatic Placate, MACO Shields & others gives this ability thus prevents you from unloading your entire payload upon a player character.
The only ability in this game that allows such is Miracle Worker Ability: Narrow Sensor Bands
https://sto.gamepedia.com/Ability:_Narrow_Sensor_Bands
As this ability also gives a damage boost, Science Team should also give Placate Immunity minus the damage boost, as there are so many Placates out there we need some sort of counter measure to fight this, as of now my Miracle Worker Ship is the only Formadable ship to fight these new Jem Hadar wingman Placates.
I go to fire upon this ship but wind up unloading upon a tiny insignificant wing man instead or some other platform or other regardless how much CtrlX I'm equipped with.

PLEASE GIVE SCIENCE TEAM 5, 10, 15 SECOND PLACATE IMMUNITY

    Hmmm... very interesting. Makes me want to go read up a bit more on that Jem'Hadar stuff....the draw of Risa was stronger, though...

    So, Cryptic gave Jem'Hadar Wingmen placate abilities....and they spam them? And gums up your strike.
    And Science Team only cleanses for 5 sec...I guess, it depends on if you have 1, 2 or 3. But it only takes off one debuff, though...I think.

    I thought those placates do not work after you get hit with one for a certain amount of time? Are you seeing the Wingmen's placates keep effecting you even though you are in the cool down period after you cleanse them?

    Or are there different placates being thrown at you multiple times (and sources?)...that would mess with that cool down period. Just how many different forms of placates are those things spamming?

    Both my Mine layer friends run that the AMaco shield..And I watch both get wiped out by (a player with much higher damage output than me) Rom Pilot Escort in exactly 2 Volleys. 1 Volley if they were focusing attention to me..I loved watching that stream of Disruptor cannon fire blast down those shields and turn those hulls into smoking craters..

    Granted that shield did trigger on me...But a quick Tab and I was on em again.

    Im..kinda laughing as that placate is doing exactly what people plan for. Move the target off them (even just for a sec).

    Also..Intel spec has a placate immunity.

    ..You know..I kinda want the Old Feedback pulse back..Or at least..More scale able with EPG (meaning cryptic would remove the caps this ability has).

    I see what you are saying, the Narrow Sensor Bands ability allows you to do just that, you ACTIVATE it before attack, decloak & mash the spacebar, reguardless of how many Placates & Confuse and FLASHY blinding lights you through at me, including Fail Safe Scramblers ....... I'll remain targeted upon YOU thus unloading all weapons on YOU ..... not something else.
    Aside from MACO Auto Placating Shields & Thoron Infused Weapons, all other Confuse & Plactates Require Superior CtrlX over Me to work.

    I'm thinking it's time to move onto the Dyson Sci Destroyer bundle, HOLD & DrainX Transfasic [Pen] Torpedo/Mines build.
    As much as I like my Cloaked Torpedo Boat build, aside from skilled players it just made other players quit as that is NOT my intension.
    The Dyson Sci Destroyer bundle can strip some shields and is maneuverable enough for torps, and also remain killable enough so other players dont quit.
    My goal IS NOT to create a GOD SHIP build, if you do this YOU GET NO ACTION in Kerat.

    My goal:...
    Is a fun to use clicky Sci Ship, that ........ ABUSES the foe in a way....... that strips them of their DIGNITY & manhood, fires them them up.......
    ..... to seek REVENGE, this keeps the game going until you can't even stay awake anymore....... very fun.
    To keep things going, let's say I kill you, ..... THEN YOU SEE THIS IN CHAT:
    Pryor says: @YOU :-D
    When you kill me....
    Pryor says: @YOU :-(
    Now ........ your going to want to earn that Frowny Face again & again.....lol

    Ill be home @ 4pm PST..I want a 1v1
