Full Shields on Spawn/Respawn

Post by Aslyn Denethorn »

Hola,

Something that's been bugging me for a while: when we first join the server, our health is full, but our shields are set to 25. In sims or missions, we have to go forth and find shield generators or ask someone to \rpgive <name> armor <amount> to be up to full spec.

My thought is this: if I go to bed with a fully-charged shield generator (ICly), why would I wake up with one that's somehow diminished to nearly nothing?

Figured it might be easier for everyone if the server automatically replenishes our shields *and* health as soon as we spawn in. Saves hassle all around.

Admittedly this has been on my mind for months, it makes no sense to spawn in with an empty shield generator when you should have a full one automatically if it was full beforehand.

As one of those people that actively hunt for shields when not on the temple map it is a pain in banthas behind especially when you're put at an unrealistic disadvantage.

In reality no one should be going into a potential combat situation without fully charged shields, it's common sense to replace a battery before hand, infact it might also be ideal for people to carry spares for when they have a breather.

/support

It can be a useful thing for JEDI entering missions to have full shields as well - a great margin of error.

Fully agree with it, this has been something I've thought about many times.

This I agree on, it can get really annoying when on a mission or before sparring.
