How do beams apply to this? So condensors and coolers are useless on beams?

I would think that coolers would make the beam deal the damage faster, while condensors will make it have less recharge indirectly by decreasing energy cost.

Makes sense now... descriptions just didn't make sense in what they're supposed to do.

May well need some tweaking but what you've said and my own experiences it seems to be working "correctly".

We know this. But when you consistently have a scenario where several missiles/fighters are tracking you and just 1 or 2, if any, of them are destroyed by Pulse Shield then it suggests something may be wrong.

could this also stem from the same bug where missles arn't being targeted by PD?

most likely.
Seems sometimes missiles dont register. A shame their damage isnt voided as well.
I suspect we will se a influx of missile ships on the field.
All i can say is good luck shooting that crap at me. I suggest the rest of ICC get on the same page.
ECM is your friend until this is fixed.

You mean the missles that we already can't target to PD a lot of the time?

What ever happen to the suggestion about disabling Y chat?
I’m growing very close to the end of my chain with this game.
When I got here, it was obviously a dated game.. Old.
I overlooked it and tried it anyway because Opposition insisted that the players here were unlike any i have ever come across.
So I tried it and he was right. DS was a tight nit community that could play together and not be asses.
Sadly I have watched the quality of players, both in skill and attitude decline at a steady rate since I arrived in 2009.
I’m really close to just making it to CM and calling it quits.
In a last ditch effort, I am starting to put all known UGTO and K’luth player on ignore.
I hope this measure will slow the decay of the DS experience for me.
To all the would be Y trolls. I have never won any argument over Y. Nor has anyone else for that matter. It only serves to disrupt game play and makes all of us look like arses to the would be new players of DS. I realize ive not been the best about this myself as of late. After I got banned from forums, I adopted a no Y no reason policy. I didn’t talk in Y for any reason, nor did I respond to Y for any reason. I am going to go back to this.
As for all the people running around saying their faction was nurfed to hell. YOU are the single greatest NURF to your faction. Nay-sayers who run around spewing poisons of discontent do far more damage to faction moral than any nurf or enemy could. You want to kill your faction? No better way to do it than to complain about it 24/7(im ICC. I have seen it happen time and time again and ive learned my lesson). Lie to yourself enough times and it becomes the truth.
On UGTO. I wanted to believe there is a problem with UGTO in current version. However I have found a lack of supporting evidence for this. My findings have shown that the UGTO Vs ICC problem is a psychological one. UGTO give up before the fight has even started. One cannot possibly hope to win a battle he has already lost in his mind. This scenario is no deferent.
The only evidence I have found that supports arguments of UGTO problems are;
A) Depot fix.
B) Stations re-purposed
Depot fix has a large number of UGTO in shock about their inability to tank damage like they could before. Even a large number of pre-depot spam vets seem to have forgotten what the game was like before the exploitive repair system. This has given rise to an idea among UGTO that they should be the defensive faction. A consensus the devs seem to share based on my recent tests in 670 beta. Those UGTO who do not believe they should be the defensive faction have come into an identity crisis. They no longer know WHAT their factional advantage is supposed to be. General definition of the UGTO faction and its traits have been lost in the chaos that followed 670 release.
Stations rework has affected all factions the same. By such, this argument is mute and void.
Dreadnaughts and stations crumple fast under fire for UGTO. A fact shared by ICC and Kluth. ICC and KLuth adapted tactics to compensate. UGTO continues on like their still in v660 beating their head against the wall complaining that It hurts.

Dude, I don't want to argue with you about this, but I suggest you take a long look in the mirror before you tell us about DS's "decay".
Weren't you the one who started Y-chat complaining to us 2 days back when we repeatedly pointjumped you to blow you out of space? Then started trolling to us about "skills" and etc?
Practice what you preach. Or shut up about it entirely.

I did read that part. Regardless of it, and perhaps even more so because of it in fact, you're really not in a good position to tell us about "skill and attitude".
Take it anyway you want LOL. I'm done with this matter.
