Buff the Regen Field - Poll

Who would like to take a poll to buff the regeneration field?

Yes Buff

No Buff

Undecided

There isn’t any evidence that it is not balanced nor operating in the way that it was intended to.

no buff, the regen is perfect the way it is

I disargee the regen field ought to have a slight adjustment in two ways.

First the delay for deploy. After listening to the 343 poscast and using the regen field for sometime now in a variety of situations, mainly capture the flag, it’s clear that the delay is a bit too long. I believe that merely a very short 1/16th of a second reduction on the delay would bring the field into tactical equivelancy with the other loadouts, such as jet pack, ProVision, and Active Camo. 1/32th of a second might be enough.

Secondly, the speed of healing could use a very small 0.05% boost for the rate.

The major reason I feel that the regen field should be adjusted in these ways is because when I paired the field with the mobility tacitcal package, I found it very difficult to deploy and utilize the regen field when all you want to do is get across the map quickly to heal temmates.

Lastly, why can I not get the animation to work when I am crouching. The sphere gives away my position when its used, so why not allow it to work when you are crouched?

Afaik, you don’t have to stay in it for the shield to keep recharging.

So this can work with Shielding tactical package.

Personally, I just want to deploy it like the drop shield in Reach. Getting out of Spartan Ops maps would be so much easier.

I think the bug in which it doesn’t regenerate you should be fixed. I’d say 1 in 10 times I use it, I stand in it and my shield just doesn’t recharge. Really frustrating when I ABSOLUTELY needed it.
