Isochronal Sloughing Assault Shield

Creates a powerful, yet specialised force field around the engineer. This field will remain dormant until the engineer is attacked by a special attack, such as Burst or Full Auto. When such an attack upon the engineer is made, the field comes instantly to life and fully absorbs the effects of that attack. This shield can absorb 7 special attacks before being rendered useless. The power of the field will automatically be refreshed every 30 seconds.

Looks real nice, kinda like an engineer pvp TMS :)

Notumsurrrge 2004-04-08 03:23

damn thing is so inbalanced -- by the time someone can hit the engie with 7 special attacks, it has already refreshed. Seen some omni guy at tir survive like 4 people on him because their special attacks were absorbed -_-

EatMyDust69us 2004-04-23 22:59

Well, considering Agents can sometimes get 2-3 Aimed Shots in 30 seconds, I'd say this is fair

Megabob 2004-05-16 13:32

it's fair that they can absorb 7 specials every 3 secs? =)

Supatrue 2004-07-02 16:20

uhhg.
Enjoy it while it lasts, apparently it is supposed to refresh every 30 seconds not 3.

Taeglen 2004-07-22 00:37

not much to say beside insane

tremor 2004-08-17 16:20

lol, nice ^^

Ariac 2005-01-04 11:53

Still refresh's every 3 secounds.

Octo 2005-06-03 10:15

Fixed with 15.9 patch, now 30 sec

Moniker 2005-07-05 22:53

still pretty durned good

greyze 2005-07-24 23:57

dos it absorb normal attacks or perks aswell?

seejin 2005-08-13 16:50

Dosen't do normal just specials like it says"special attack, such as Burst or Full Auto. When such an attack upon the engineer is made, the field comes instantly to life and fully absorbs the effects of that attack." - ownage though you just stand there have all your reflections up and every time they hit you they get hit for like 160 back from damage/reflection and you just let the bot rip them to shreads. Greatest PvP nano line for engis hands down.

Arrone 2006-02-21 04:16

this is "the" P.W.N. :]

Awaren 2006-03-20 02:06

This = invulnerable to specials
This + bio shield perk + reflective nano = Impossible to kill engineer in 1v1 PVP

slytha 2006-04-14 09:37

omg, youre talking huge crap, if u would have any idea of pvp, then you would know that engis aren't impossible to kill.

Rdic 2006-04-27 11:01

dude, chill

Msauss 2006-09-24 18:52

Takes away the only thing agents are good at: ganking

Geekwave 2006-11-24 12:33

Moral for agents are. Dont try ganking engis :P

Yakobo66 2006-12-09 22:49

then the agent gets ganked by aoe blind and cant hit the Cocooned engy :D

Shadow.ik 2006-12-10 23:00

Poor fixers =// Anyway nanoline of this nano should be : xploit!!1!

Gavyyn 2006-12-14 03:02

well guys at least we can still crit them to death :) silly tardbots :p
ull always be agent food :D

Shadow.ik 2006-12-27 14:47

When you wanna alpha engi bring your org LOL

acrocrash 2007-02-07 06:36

Seen many doc's and shades take out engies faily easily, perks and dot's its pretty void, NT's even take them out easily, Nano attacks go through cocoon and this :)

charmo 2007-02-19 14:23

"Yakobo66 @ 2006-12-09 22:49

Why do you up cocoon when they cannot hit you ^^?

Yakobo66 2007-03-09 17:13

because, then you start getting ganked by 50 people and thier specials might get through evntually ^^

Nook1e 2007-03-12 10:18

hmmm, run through bor and spam blinds while everyone is flagged while having this enabled...
will be fun ^^

fly 2007-05-10 17:46

@ charmo
Bc this only absorb special attacks...you still have to deal with those annoying normal attacks and crits ^^

This nano seems to overide cocoon when used, i have tried perking cocoon with this nano active in my ncu and the cocoon fails. This just might be my experiance tho.

alesicis 2007-09-20 11:31

i dont see how it could override coon as that is temp absorb

Worldnuker 2007-12-16 02:57

Does this mean MAs are good at taking out engis? MAs are the best DPS (Damage per second) Only 1 real spec, and thats AS, if you have a bow, brawl and dimach are crappy unless you got capped charge dimach

zerogates 2008-04-22 19:51

shades destroy engie, all ill say

alpha320 2008-05-26 15:03

This can t stop karaoke soldiers :P

alesicis 2009-07-04 18:47

well equipped atrox shades do well against us, but destroy is an exageration, we faceroll soldiers

houserocker 2009-07-05 11:19

Don't need to be Atrox shade to kill an engy, worst evades of any prof. In my experience, if I see the shade coming and have cocoon up, the shade will die or have to run. If they surprise you or you have coon down and don't kite...kiss your ass goodbye if the shade knows what he is doing :)

Deadlykis 2009-12-06 22:31

Engy need's to be preety stuppid to just stay there and take dmg frome shade... if he kites+shares you you are doomed, engy has cocon/reflects/heals/pets with high AR/and what do you know AS pistole... shade has... 12k hp + a 5k absorb tatoo. I pvp'ed many engy's with my shade, couldn't beat the best ones...
