Distortion Weapons make no more Shild DMG o.O (StarCitizen 3.23)

Qick Test, after Friend says me Distortion have no effekts for him.
However, in the video, which you can find in the information card, you can see that Distortion can still switch off the systems.

nice that u noticed this 1 week after the patch droped.

It sounds like you knew this information, but I think there are many other players who don't know this.
Including me so far, so it's better to clarify more than, well... ;)

In short:
- Shields have a 95% Distortion Damage resistance when fully charged (so just 5% of damage to shields and ship systems goes through)
- Only main Power Plants and (IIRC) Shield Generators can be shut down by distortion weapons in general. All other components (for now) don't take distortion damage.

Thanks for sharing this really useful information♥️ #reallyseriouslymean

[@Gucc1Man514]

if main powerplant is down, doesnt that mean everything else including weapons are down too?

[@5hadowprime.Gaming]

@@Gucc1Man514 Yes, that is correct, but the system tries to start again after x amount of time.The times can be seen at erkul or at Camual on CZcams, who did 2-3 tests during downtime.

Yeah, they nerfed distortions again because it was too OP but fun to use. They are being tuned for more component damage once shields are down and will play into engineering gameplay to counter them.

[@5hadowprime.Gaming]

It had escaped me until now, but it sounds sensible so far and I can even confirm taking the components offline.

Amazing

[@Reaver-One]

Distos didn't do shield damage in 3.22.1 either.

[@5hadowprime.Gaming]

Oh really, I didn't notice that.Thanks for the tip😮
