Certain ship shield types bugged?

Ever since LoR, I have noticed that certain types of ship shields seem bugged, but I'm not sure if it is a bug or they just nerfed it. I refer to the regeneration rate. I first noticed it on the Corvariant shield types, but noticed tonight that Aegis is affected as well, which really burns my britches because my alternate toons use the Aegis. Does anyone know if this is a bug or is it another Cryptic "new normal"?

    The Aegis shield IS a Covariant... Just a really really pathetic one. They do not regen worth a darn, that is their problem.

    Ah, I think i might know what the OP is saying. Is it when you collect a shield, like a MK X covariant, instead of the hit points being 6,000 +, it actually is not even 2,000?

    I've noticed this. When I pick up shields in drops, I look at the hit points, and am horrified to see they carry almost no strength at all. I am too scared to change my current shield to any of these, as I have no idea if its a typo bug, or a physical bug, which would mean that I would get ***** in every NPC battle. Has anyone else notice this?

    ahh, try this un-equip your current shield and mouse over it, then put it back and mouse over it.

    I could be mistaken but I believe the OP is referring to another issue

    Sorry, I probably should have been more clear. What I'm referring to is when you toggle "U" and your characters open. Choose your ship. Go to the "defense" tab below the ship. Here it lists like "hull strenth" etc. There is a line that says "regeneration rate". Usually this will have something like "297 regeneration/6 seconds". When you equip the Aegis, for example, it is totally blank. But if you equip a say a regular ship shield it has a regeneration rate there. That is why I wondered if it's bugged. I only noticed this because I was in a battle and my Aegis wouldn't regenerate even when not taking hits.

    Known display bug. Been around forever. Regen still works just fine.
