[BUG] EDI has skills on long cooldown after reload

Question

I've noticed that every time I get wiped with EDI in the party, after reload, all her skills are on a rather long cooldown. Most of the time, this is only a minor irritation, since you can just wait before going into battle. However, occasionally you get thrown right back into the fight that killed you. This means she can't even activate defense matrix before engaging. Not the end of the world, but obviously a bug, since this doesn't happen with anyone else. I've noticed she also starts on cooldown when you first load into a level.

This is ME3 (obviously), on PC.

I have exactly the same problem.Really bad when you are relying on EDI's Overload, e.g. in the Atlas Fight on Sur'Kesh (which starts immediately after loading, and you can't use Overload for 10+ seconds).

This bug is present in the original ME3 as well. I don't even know if they fixed Ashley's Marksman either...

But simply put, it seems that upon loading the game, the Defense Matrix is used and the cooldown activated.

This makes using EDI slightly inconvenient at times, for certain.

Oh so thats why I had such a long cooldown when reloading a save. It's very annoying on insanity, especially with 2 banshees on you mixed in with a couple of husks. To bad, but need change my bonus power then. Thanks for the info

Yep, extremely annoying. Especially since I have respeced Edi and she does now not even HAVE the defense matrix. It STILL happens however... not every time, but often enough to make it VERY annoying.
