So the [Over] proc isn't supposed to drain weapons power? Yay, a cruiser with 8 of those will be really well balanced. I mean, who doesn't like their free beam overloads?

    Even more of a reason for it to just not exist. It will mostly be junk and most people won't even bother trying to craft one... having said that. It is yet another thing for people to go WTF just happened there and go backscrolling through there logs to see what happened.

    The main issue with PvP in STO... isn't any specific thing. Its all the stupid 100% RNG proc junk that is strong enough to kill people. This is just one more thing that at random is going to be the last dmg to hit someone... be the reason they are scrolling through a log... or worse just saying F this and leaving PvP.

    If Cryptic is ever going to do anything with PvP (yes I know not happening)... they are going to have to find a way to tame all the random procs that make the game skillless.

    Over is just a normal mod, it's not one of the unique Arc weapons.

    lol, i have to do that like every death nowadays. 9 times out of 10 times its proton or elachi DBB related.

    and ya, i doubt these weapon mods will be limited what so ever. i too facepalmed at them supposed to be not draining any more power. if its just beam array BO1 it wont be too bad, and will cancel the rest of the beam's fireing cycle when it procs. might have a zero sum effect unless its just enough spike to get a kill.

    have we even identified all of the new mods yet? some are pvp specific

    I don't know why they removed double taps only to make multi-taps later as a rng proc lol.
    If it's not limited to 1 weapon it's just stupid imo, add to that beam trait oh and this resistance trait to eng abilities (aux to geko)...yeah atb zombies paradise...facepalm.

    (Just as they revamped rep to limited rep trait slots due to power creep, why did they do rep in the first place, surely they'd know this would add moar powa creep)

    Just imagine atbfawspam with rng BO with BO pen doffs/mix those [over] stuff with elachi beams (yeah no proc lockout lol)+dem. :rolleyes:

    Sorry for my english, not native eng speaker.

    The new arc mod makes the weapons unique? Hope not :(

    We're all talking about weapons and absolutely no one has bothered to craft or test the new shields or deflectors for procs (Or mines/torpedoes for that matter). I bet there are some good ones there also, but everyone goes gaga over weapons. If crafting makes MK XII UR weapons then I'll just try and get the ones below:

    Polarons:
    [Acc]x3[BO]
    [Acc]x2[SNARE][PEN] <- Yes, these are polarized disruptors with an extra debuff, lol.

    I don't have space for a BO on my boat, so a free one is welcome. At last, I'll have something that might score a nasty hit while my drains are active and my target has no shields.
