SHIELD CELLS BUFF

@ADM-REIxSUPREMO Wrong, it is very situational, when being chased you wouldnt pop a bat that takes 5s to pop while sliding down a hill, you'd pop a cell which takes 3s. Implementing a shield change does not need to happen. It would also make the golden shield completely useless once again.

@MoNosDirtyGaming negative, if I had a level 3 or higher armor, I would prefer to use the shield battery, not shield cells that would take 12 to 15 seconds to fill my shield, and another, the legendary armor would be better if the time was reduced to use shield cells, and not worse, even with legendary armor, it takes 6 seconds to fully fill using shield cells, and with a shield battery, 5 seconds to fully fill.

it wouldn’t have to decrease much, decreasing from 3 to 2.5 seconds would be fine.

@ADM-REIxSUPREMO I believe you misunderstand the point entirely. A legendary shield is only good because you can heal twice as fast, 3s to pop 2 shields. The last time they messed around with shields the golden bodyshield became completely useless. This change would make it pointless once again.

And again if you're being chased you don't have 5 seconds to fill your shield, you'd have 3s to slide down a hill pop a cell, run a bit, shoot back, pop another cell while they're pushing you, and repeat.

Apex is about IQ and outsmarting the opponent. Cells used to be 2.5s and they increased it because of noobs crying 24/7.

@ADM-REIxSUPREMO What is up with you and wanting cells/bats changed? It doesn't add up. We all do just fine you should too. You are wanting nerfs for lack of skills apparently. I do not say this to be mean but the changes you ask for is to make your games much easier.

@E9ine_AC shield cell takes 3 seconds to fill 25 shields (it has to go down to 2.5 seconds).

shield battery takes 5 seconds to fill 125 with shield (it looks great the way it is).

@ADM-REIxSUPREMO .5 is very short period as well as it being a minimal upgrade. It would hardly be noticeable. This is essentially ask for fast heal to be added back. The cell timer is just fine and equal playing grounds.

@E9ine_AC friend, it's already 5 seconds on the dark battery (big shield).

what I want to change is the shield cell (small shield), which takes 3 seconds to fill 25 shields, and I think 2.5 seconds would be fine.

@ADM-REIxSUPREMO I understand but this is what makes them small shields and not bigs. It is meant to be longer shield times to keep a balance of heals. If we can heal faster then the game becomes more of just breaking shields. Which is fine really pads more dmg for badges.

But for me I feel they are where they should be to keep a balance of how fast and how much some can heal for.

With quicker cells comes gibby bubble of fast heal. Comes lifeline being able to quickly shield while being healed by drone.

These 2 would un balance the heal factors of legends. Imagine gibby bubble fast heal. It would be insane.

@E9ine_AC friend but 2.5 seconds of 3 seconds that it already is, it wouldn't make all that difference no.

and another, when we only have shield cells (small shield)

and has no shield battery (large shield)

it takes a long time to fill a level 4 armor, 15 seconds is a long time.

shield battery (large shield) fills in 5 seconds.

that is, those who have a shield battery (large shield), have an advantage over those who only have a shield cell (small shield).

@ADM-REIxSUPREMO It is suppose to be this way. This is the challenge of the entire fight. Who can heal faster and recoup and keep going. Sure aim and movement work but knowing when to pull out to shield and heal is a major function of the game.

Again imagine Gibby with this in his bubble. You could see quicker then gold armor heals or close to it when it was a thing. Making him much much harder to kill.
