Just thought I would share this. I was in the Khazan Cluster and had a mission to kill 5 groups of Romulans. Well during the course of the mission I fell victim to one of the Thalaron Mines. On my way to the next group I decided to change my costume, low and behold the Thalaron animation plays on my character.
At first I thought it was a random one time occurrence, but I was able to switch costumes back and forth several times before it stopped playing the effect.
