Just noticed that the "-25% Accuracy for 10 sec" is gone from the Klingon Honor Guard space shield. Maybe I missed it but I haven't read anywhere that they were nerfing it.

    Not really surprise anymore ... its common practice for them to remove or transfer KDF unique items/skills. Previously the disagreements have been voiced, but it has no impact or a change in attitude.

    If you watched the podcast, you can see how proud and enthusiastic branflakes was about the fed content and changes ... most likely this view is shared by his colleagues. The only way this would change, if they hired individuals that felt the same way about KDF ... for a second there I though I saw a pigs flying ;)

    The placate proc is still there, though. So it could be worse.

    just checked, it got nerfed too.

    thing is, that the placate is also given by a reputation, and i'm not sure that they are stackable, since it says "every 10 sec"

    i switched to elite fleet shields month ago anyway...

    Can we get a Dev. confirmation/comment on this here?

    Because it's not the first time when patches/seasons happen everything in the game to go berserk and show the wrong tooltips and descriptions. I'm just wondering if this change(nerf) was intentional or something got screwed up?

    This.

    While I don't doubt at all they have no qualms about stealth nerfing something, it IS a season release. Just because the lag and game crashes haven't been as big or often for most folks, doesn't mean that the game didn't get a lot of extra bugs still.

    I hope this is a mistake.

    I really don't think it's intentional.

    It makes sense to nerf it. The placate proc already effectively reduces incoming damage by 10% (one second of every 10 is placated) considering that the 25% proc rate is absurdly high when taking as many hits as most enemies can dish out. The accuracy debuff is just too much considering how often it proc'ed.

    Hey all,

    I'm looking at the power right now and it still has the 25% Accuracy debuff for 10 seconds whenever it triggers. I'll investigate what caused the tooltip to change, but I believe this item is still functioning identically to its pre-S8 incarnation. Sorry for the panic caused by the tooltip's behavior change.

    Thanks for the update adjudicatorhawk, I had the feeling this is a glitch caused by the launch of new content - that's why I asked for a dev. confirmation.

    Nice to know that there have been no changes and it's simply a tooltip issue. And nice to have a dev. promptly react and give us info on the issue. Thank you for that. :)

    You mean the part where the tooltip constantly cycles between 0 and 25%? That's been happening since the launch of LoR.

    Seconded, on a KDF issue as well, credit must be given where credit is due!

    Did you look at anything else with this, by any chance...perhaps the 2pc and the Crew bit?

    Cause I was trying to get specific numbers for how Crew affects TT for a thread Bort had posted in...and...uh...

    Take a boat, give it whatever Sheilds/Deflector/Engine. Hit up Crystalline Entity (good source of Crew loss).

    Take the same boat, 2pc KHG on it. Try to lose Crew.

    Yeah, I said "Try to lose Crew." there...not try not to lose Crew, but try to lose Crew. It's trippy.

    Am just curious.

    Were the maco shields stealth nerfed (i can't recall seeing a patch note on it). or are they just bugged atm.

    They used to have a Accuracy debuff to attacker with a subvert targetting proc, but now they just do a 1 sec placate.
