@CCbathwaterI'm admittedly a LL hater but this change is bad for everyone. I realize they like to test things but this just doesn't make sense. And it's confusing. I've been cracked so many times and forget to shield heal.
The only positive is you can charge a sentinel now.

I don't know.. I kind of like the change. I'll have to play more to get a better feel for it, but from my matches last night, it was an improvement for me. They seem to have drastically reduced the delay for the regen, so my health was coming back almost as soon as I was done taking damage, and a battery only takes 5 seconds to pop, as opposed to the 8 seconds for a med kit, if memory serves me. I pretty much always pop a batt before I use med/syringe in BR, so I'm just more used to using shield items in combat. I was having fun with it last night. Even the Octane's that just want to stim all over the place now, are just hindering themselves with a reduced HP pool, and are easy kills, since the regen isn't quite fast enough to keep up. Had a couple of them trying that nonsense last night, and it didn't work out very well for them, Lol!
One thing I didn't think to test last night. I wonder if you use LL's health drone in tandem with the base regen, will you get boosted health regen speed? That could be pretty nifty, if so

@hayhorForget? How about having no time. In the old system you got rewarded for out damaging people, if you hit them for flesh and you only took shield damage, you were infront. Now you have to shield, they shield but also auto heal flesh. Why? No reward for out-hitting your opponent. And if you kill someone and they only do shield damage on you, now you have to run for 20 seconds because his teammate is chasing you across the map, and there is no time to shield up. They literally introduced 3rd partying to Mixtape 🤣 At least I play Wraith, so I void and stand a chance.
I spend half the game shielding now, where before I spend the game shooting.- hayhor3 years agoHero@CCbathwater What you mention about killing someone and they only do shield damage is the thing that bothers me most. Now, I need to duck away to heal and doing that results in moving slower. Before I could head towards the next person and my shield may heal along the way.
