Hazard Emitters Broken

ok, since the last patch i have been noticing hazard emitters not clearing vent theta and plasma, i have sat in combat on plasma fire for the entire duration with hazard emitters running, I thought they were supposed to clear hazards for the entire duration of the effect....however this is clearly not true as i sit there and burn the whole time wondering why the counter is not working at all....

I've heard this is from the immobilize effect of the warp plasma doff.

I suggest Attack Pattern Omega or Evasive to get out then use emitters
odd, i just used it in my last pvp match and it worked fine, were you sitting in the plasma field? enemy using plasma weapons and they kept procing?
Edit: Now I got a question, lol, is the warp plasma doff procing vent theta also?

i was not even in the plasma, i barely touched it, hit HE to clear it and i just sat their on plasma fire
ok maybe it is bugged like everyone else is saying, good luck getting it fixed tho lol
It also lands on November, January, march, may, July, and on Christmas eve.

Was in 20-30 Pvp following a heavy cruiser in my bop, got a face full of plasma and couldnt cleanse, its was slightly horrible
LOL broken game is broken.
Might I suggest checking your social menu in MWO and joining me and mavairo and some others for some stompy robot fun?

The real lulz about this, is that the Borg Proc which isn't supposed to clear this and other effects is. Oh and that is also true with the Shield Proc curing it.
I'm gonna have to do that. It's funny, I DL'd mwo, but I've yet to fire it up. Despite the fact I haven't played it yet, apparently there have been ppl claiming that they've been playing it with me
and i skipped the last few posts....
but HE only clears for 1 sec, and only if you are out of the cloud.
so omega, and evasives and engine batts +HE are solid to counter this right now.
have fun kill bad guys.
yep, this is my experience as well. HE wont dig you out of clouds currently, make sure the hazzard cant re apply the dot before using HE
If that's the case, then it happen about 3-4 weeks ago, I've noticed it at least about that much time ago...

Pretty sure that's 100% intended, too. No, I don't mean in the "Official Line: It's working as intended! / Unofficial Line: Oh god, oh god, how do we fix this?" intended either. If HazEm was making you completely immune to the effects of clouds while in them, it'd make the opportunity cost of EWP even more ludicrous vs its most common counter, as well as providing even less pay-off for a carefully laid cloud of plasma. Just sayin'.
Oh, and I think if was Borticus that said the debuff clear is only applied once per second, which is of course, not in time with how fast the debuff of warp plasma is appllied in cloud (IE: 30 times a sec, IIRC).
As long as you're in contact with the plasma, it makes perfect sense to me that the burn is re-applied dirctly after cleansing it. It's like trying to dry yourself with a towel while you're still in the pool...
The way I think it's working, is that every tick (second) the system rushes through all dot's and heals. The order of things today, is that the HE is just before the EWP in the que, meaning the EWP will be reapplied instantly after being cleared. If HE had been moved below EWP in the chain of events, it would be cleared instantly after being applied.
In short, you remove your DoT and get a brand new DoT every second! And really, this is all good IMO. It's not like warp plasma is OP or anything, and the way it works makes sense to me.
PS: The EWP animation is slightly smaller than the damage zone. This is total TRIBBLE, and makes people catch fire without touching the animation. Would be much better if the animation was bigger, and you could brush it without catching fire!
From what I've noticed, you are in plasma, click he, move a little bit, then plasma dot reapplies, then he ticks again but nothing happens. Before, you were moving after every tick of he, now you only move after first and are stuck after the rest he ticks. I was not sure though if it was because of the doff or not. This is why evasives and then he can take you out of plasma, since most times you're out after first he tick. maybe you can also try it later and post what you experience, lol, another competent opinion can't hurt...

Seeing as Hazards is the wonder skill that cures everything... I'm fine with them never fixing this one.
The game really could stand to have clears/counters for things diversified a bit, maybe a little more emphasis on Science Team as the game's panacea card instead of the miracle drug that is Hazard Emitters. At least then it's flash and gone with a potentially nasty opportunity cost, made even more interesting and less crippling if TT and Shield Balancing were split into two different powers w/ TT providing a useful offensive boost.
cant get it to cure this strange rash...
Oh that's the Shelby Sensation, the HE doesn't much help with that.
Its transmitted through in game mail... if you see anything with the subject Orbz... just delete it.
We can exclude the warp poo doff, because that just happened yesterday to me in PVE. yes, PVE. Warp poo'ed, flew out of the poo, still had 10 secs of hazard on me, but nothing got cleared.
If they go down that path, I would want a drastically reduced persistence of the ewp debuff after either expiry of the cloud or exiting it. Whichever comes first. Also, there would need to be a lot of work done on the disparity between technical and visually represented boundaries of the plasma cloud. Not to mention the invisi plasma that sometimes rears it's head when there's a lot going on.
TLDR; he is probably too good vs ewp, but thete's a lot wrong with ewp in the first place, imho.
We probably wouldn't see it as much if other CC abilities actually you know worked.
penicillin.
hopefully the team skills suddenly start clearing for just 1 second as well
