So the answer to mitigating the ridiculous powercreep is, more power creep?
I'm surprised to see this, the Cascades are one fo the few ways to mitigate magashields, and corrossive's massive debuff mitigates hull tanking, so surely removing those effects would effectively buff defenses increasing the invulnerability this thread is complaining about?
I'd like to see them replaced with things that are more broadly available.
Feedback Cascade: Remove it, and make ANY damage to an SCB during the windup cancel it. Let players engineer them to require more damage to cancel it, if they want.
Reverb Cascade: Let Torpedoes at least, and potentially ALL missiles, penetrate shields to some extent. This removes the requirement for one particular experimental. Players could then target whatever they want on the enemy ship, not just the shield generator.
Corrosive Shell: I don't think anyone thinks hull tanking is really an issue; certainly not one on the same scale as shield tanking, if for no other reason than that hulls don't regenerate. Even if it were, the solution shouldn't be one single effect on two weapons.
