Mine that looks like a purple drop = FUNNY have to make the ground mines look like orion girls next... the console is op BTW but funny when a fleet mate says wow a purple drop on ts then BOOM:D
So another console getting nerfed to the point where its useless in pve. Are we ever going to get anything in a lockbox again thats useful outside of pvp. Voth and Hirogen both are just complete TRIBBLE for PvE, this console in its current state would be the first bit of PvE useful lockbox stuff since the Elachi Lockbox. Should really just rename these boxes PvP Lockbox 1 and PvP Lockbox 2.
Don't really care about this console, haven't even used it, but I am getting sick of nothing useful for PvE being introduced to this game.
in my opinion this console is already useless for pve. (to be honest, i don't have that much experience concerning pve.)
what would be the use of this console in pve (facing a tac cube / gateway / ...) in your opinion?
The cooldown reset. The death thing is useless in PvE, and only useful as an escape from death in PvP. In PvP it puts up a giant sign saying hey there is a bomb here in the form of a VR drop which does not normally exist in PvP, and lets the attacker know your not dead, so not very well thought out in that regard.
Question mark face? Fixing the captain power interaction is still going to leave it pretty handy in PvE. Imagine being able to trigger gravity wells almost back to back - pretty handy, no? An additional RSP is also pretty handy - and you could dump this right on top of an ISE gate for a little extra damage.
Not to mention based on all descriptions, it was only supposed to work on BoFF powers in the first place.
Save your anti-PvP remarks for more justifiable circumstances.

PvE is stupid easy, you dont need special consoles. The console is useless for pve anyways, so keep your PvE hero comments to yourself and let the adults who know somethings talk.

Not really it allows people some alternative to the cookie aux2batt exploit.
It can be used strategically against large groups as well as against bosses or strong single enemies.

After thorough testing, if a grav well is still active, it doesn't always reset the timers for that skill, same seemed to happen on occasion with tachyon and siphon. It also doesn't reset rep powers.

With a comment like that, someone would be inclined to think you are in fact not an adult.

I am aware of that. By "back to back" I was referring to triggering another grav well the moment the previous one expired. The timer left after the reset appears to correspond to the amount of time left on the buff (testing using EPtX).
From the description I read on the website, it's supposed to work on Boff powers alone. That should be fixed. Anything more than that, other people can discuss. The only forthcoming change is this fix - a change to stop it from doing something unintended. Why assign blame for a fix? Besides, my post was more in response to those who seemed to think the console was useless even after the fix - which it isn't.

Aw how cute the little arrogant PvPer came out to say hello. Yeah I know the only thing that matters is PvP right, even though most players in this game couldn't give a **** about PvP. Might be because its full of *******s such as yourself.

Even with it eliminating cd's for boff's they will still scream OP. The trap itself is pretty useless against pvp player's, so if it only becomes a cd for boff's it kind of becomes useless waste of console space, because 2 aux2batt skills will way out perform the console's 3min cd.
EDIT: I mean you got people QQ about the stealth bonus for feigning death, which heaven forbid that's what it is intended to, and not like they can really do anything against you until the trap is triggered.
I am really disappointed that some ppl can not leave such a discussion on the subject.
You want to complain about pvp players? Make your own thread and discuss that **** there.
You want to complain about pve players ? Same plz !
On the subject:
1. Yes. It has to be fixed. And yes, if it was intended to only reset boff powers and the fix will lead to that, well have a totally different discussion about it in the relevant pbp/pve threads.
2. Ive been really (like others that night in teamspeak and ingame) shocked when i saw what this console does. A toy, better than even tif and backstep etc is just maybe a real OP toy and should be something for every player, not just pvp- or pve-players to think about and come to the conclusion that this in fact would be very OP:
A toy, doing stealth, turnrate, speed, dmg, then resets all cds, sry, with the console not being fixed that is nearly godmode ! Dont tell me (to both of you fighting buddies) that that would NOT be Op.

Sorry but with 3mins of cd between what you define as god mode is not god mode.
A single item or ability in which you can never lose, or will always win no matter the situation is what can be rightfully called god mode.
A good example would be like COD's admin power of god mode.
This thing really should have been used only by NPCs, because in the hands of a player, it can only ever be used for exploitation, never anything that resembles its stated purpose. Players don't drop loot, NPCs don't pick up loot. Thus, pretending to die and drop loot can never fool anyone but the most stupid, and frankly, you don't need tricks to kill those people.

Wow as usual the PvE heros complain about messing with their "I winz" button.

And on the tip the console lowers tis own cd ! Try doing that with backstep !
CUUCUUMBEER! "-With slight partigen with it."
Proud member or DPS-800 "-We kill dem mines with our scitter turrets."
Yes each and every time, it doesn't effect its own cd unless another source effects it so.
3mins is the base cd for this console.

Sure everyone will get right on this, because we all just happen to have a temp ship with back step laying around. :rolleyes:

Does it really matter, take your pick.
