why the hell was this done? now it has a 45 second cooldown, 30 second global, with its usual 15 second duration. beta is still 30/15/15
but beta sucks, thanks to TT up time that ships have 2 ways to put on global with just 1 copy of.
this completely ruins my escort build synergy, delta was a great for using between 2 APO, now it would just interfere to much with cooldowns to be of any use. this is now a heal cruiser LT tac power only
I'll quote the relevant part from snix' "Duration / Recharge Category System Incoming on Tribble" thread that had all the information:
Attack Pattern Delta
Category: 3
Duration: 15
Recharge: 45
Global Cooldown: 30
System Cooldown: 15 Maneuvers
Note: Grants a damage resistance buff to self or ally. Attackers that attack ally mark themselves with a damage resistance and stealth debuff.
damm, DDIS confused me, he say it in the opvp that the coldowns where increased to 45-30, so i checked and they was 45-30, but seems like i forgot the detail that there were always like that
I just double checked it on one of my dual omega, single delta Escorts. Without Tactical Initiative, it seems to work as I remembered it. You could always cycle the first omega, then delta, then the second omega. After that there is a 15 second gap while you wait for the first omega or delta to finish their cool down. Then it starts all over again.
I only ever remember perfect coverage from dual Omegas and a single Beta. But then again, I didn't typically fly this style of escort so it's not impossible that I'm misremembering. Certainly wouldn't be the first time.

It's terrible but easy, and these Borg are way cooler than the mess STO and Voyager left us.
May not actually be "way" cooler or even "slightly" cooler.
nah the CD`s between omega/delata are same as before today`s patch. I`m using it still, it`s great, way better than beta. Altho sometimes i trigger delta in wrong time, but it`s awesome in dog fight.

if it wasn't stealth nerfed, good. don't know why it would have cooldowns different from beta though.
