However, some attacks (that don't have FF immunity) seem to ignore the Shadow Destroyers Shield.

Notably Sentinel Frigates, they are doing hull damage with my shield still up above 80%.

I see nothing in the descriptions or immunities that would explain this.

Ideas?
Plasma Siege Cannons would do that (which the biggest of the Dark Spire nebula ships use).  I don't know why a sentinel frigate would, do you have a save of that?

Updated to 5.060, can no longer replicate. Sentinel Frigates damage the Shadow Destroyers shield first as expected.

Saw the yet to be released new bonus fleet ship type that can repair stuff. While that does sound awesome, I hope there are some severe restrictions (like a very small number of things one ship can repair at once, slow repair rate, or something(s) along these lines), or else they will be hilariously OP like the old, old mobile repair stations.

Fleet ship?

I took that to mean it can be build at the Zenith Factory after you save the Zenith faction in the backwater system, so the cap would be 1 (or maybe 2).

I can't wait either way, I'll be experimenting with it.

You know Diazo, I keep looking at your D. , and I keep being reminded of someone on the B12 forums who uses that as a one-eyed sadface.

Really?

I've always seen the smilies with the eyes first, so :)

Err, yay forum!

Take out the space  : )

I use that as my handle because on voice chat my nick always gets shortened to just D.

I used to be the healing officer back when I was addicted to the World of Warcrack so I heard it a lot....

Most times yes.

D: unfortunately has no left-handed version.

Those aren't the same emotion, though. ;)

Unlike, say...

Of course it's extremely necessary to sign your posts in any case. (rabble.)

Closest thing I've had to Diazo's thing was people in a low-ish level DDO party (with no voice chat, or no working mics anyway) shouting either 'Ak!'or 'Ag3' (or between the two), depending on whether they'd been visited by the typo god, how distracted they were, or how much they'd died because Elite traps are not for derps.

Oh dear.
Well, I don't often play online games but I usually try to keep people calling me a consistent name anyway. I used to think 'lath' was like a good way to shorten it but people end up just typing LT. Probably because Lath might sound stupid.
Although nobody's told me that directly.
For the record I don't play online games often because I don't really get to play online games with friends and I don't want to play with strangers. I don't trust em. I like bots more than randoms. =/

I got a built-in shorthand that's useful for those three-letter-name highscore boards in arcade games.
