@hhnbbfggty66 I understand not everyone wants to read all post on a thread but this is only 2 pages long and I don't want to repeat myself for the 3rd time.
Therefor I'll just respond to what I haven't responded to already, before this you were able to carry 6 cell
6 cells = 1 1/2 shield 4 cells = 1 shield
The issue here is, cells are now useless to carry. Before this poop update, you had a choice to carry 6 cells or 1 battery (since its rare to find multiple batteries next to each other) and most of the time you would take the 6 cells as it let you heal 1 shield incase you were poked at vs having to use a WHOLE battery for 1 piece of armor missing.
This is why I said I would rather carry things I don't need than carry 4 cells that i'll instantly use up the moment me or a teammate gets shot.
With less cell stacks, it also makes it hard to want to share shields because who knows when you'll find more.
