T'Varo pilots please help

I'm seeing something, but given the variety of reports on the Valdore console I figured I'd ask for help without posting what I think I'm seeing.

1. Equip 2 piece T'varo [Console - Universal - Singularity Stabilizer] and [Console - Universal - Plasma Destabilizer]
2. Activate some stuff so it's on cooldown (both boff and captain)
3. While watching your cooldowns, launch destabilized plasma torp
4. Post what you see.

The one thing I will say is that I'm not talking about the torp's behavior. Whether it sits there, blows up, whatever. Just the cooldowns.

Thanks

    Lowered cooldown on APA by 50%. This is an actual bug.

    cryptic has a perfect track record for this. every new thing that interacts with cooldowns in any way is broken so it lowers the cooldowns on everything. completely without fail, this has happened every single time.

    I'll have to test this specific case, but I wondered why my APA seemed to be available all the time.

    I'm seeing every boff power and Captain power having their cd reduced. Cooldowns make my teeth itch, but I'm pretty sure launching a torpedo shouldn't cool down Evasive Maneuvers, Tactical Fleet, GDF, and every boff ability.

    Do you have any doffs that might affect this?

    I've removed all doffs and other consoles.

    I've personally narrowed it down to the 2 piece T'Varo set but I was hoping others would repro this.

    Ok, confirmed. Launching the big red fluff ball resets apparently all skills (including cloak!).

    HYT3 went from 24 secs to 9 secs!

    Since cloak resets, you can fire a useless torp for a distraction and a quick re-cloak.

    Wow.....reproduced it here. Apparently works on subnuke and sensor scan too.

    Anyone going to post in the bug forums?

    I was going to confirm it on my sci first and bug report it in game too. I just wanted somebody to repro it so I know I'm not crazy. Well, about this anyway.

    Honestly, after the Valdore healing thread I'm too worn out to argue with people who are going to call this a nerf.

    The weird thing is, it is not even the 20% you are supposed to get for projectile skills. It is more like a 60% reduction.

    maybe the bug also combines with torp doffs? could you try with and without doffs to see if they contribute to the bug in any way?

    It's weird. I get like 24 seconds off of EM and 27 off of APA. That's like 50% for EM and 30% for APA.

    Anyway, reported.
