Force surge doesn't seem to give the bubble or absorb damage

You can hit the ability, it goes off and you get the buff icon, but there is no bubble and I don't reduce any damage after it's hit.

Not to mention the nerf to it, plus the increase in damage means that PFF only lasts for 4 seconds against 3 equal level henchmen, but I'm willing to bet you will fix that.

    I've toyed around with it a bit, and I'm not sure pff is doing anything at all anymore, I couldn't tell a difference in damage mitigation with it slotted vs. not having it slotted.( i have rank 2)

    Also, Force eruption is still broken and will perma-root you if you get held while casting it, force eruption is the same.

    Thats because It goes down with just a few hits from the NPCs, and once its down it gives no mitigation.

    I know. On top of having a Personal Forcefield that really doesn't protect you, all the Field Surge does is waste power. :\

    PFF is working. Although I can't confirm if it's working as it should, but there is damage mitigation from PFF...I've been testing it in the Powerhouse.

    Field Surge.... /nod....BROKE! Not working. Nothing. Nada. At least you get an icon...

    I'm not sure if it's an increase in mob damage or PFF, but my force hero doesnt stand a chance anymore against 3 even leveled mobs. I used to be able to force eruption my way through waves of mobs, and seeing as how most encounters are groups of three, it's becoming very hard to play the hero.

    Field Surge used to be great... sucks it is broken. I hope they fix that real soon, but in the meantime I guess I'll have to get something besides force. Bummer...
