Moth Formation seriously depelting npc shields instaed of health

ok, when i first bought the Moth formation, i used it to see what it would do. used it for 2 days, and consistently made note that on npc's, theire health bar would deteriorate more rapidly then the shield bar. this would be accurate as to what the Moth formation does, 20% more penetration, which means hits health 20% more then it normally would with shield distribution.
for the last 2 days, ive made note of the opposite. using moth, 71fps, clean and clear cache fresh from a restart and ccleaner, i see the shield bar deteriorating far more rapidly then if i was using sab ammo. and i was using 1x ammo. maybe the programming has been corrupted with all the hackers ive noticed in the last 4 days, idk. but the moth is from my notice, dealing more dmg to shields then normal ammo, and not penetrating the 20% it should.
do you uderstand what i mean?
like for example, with moth, u shoot for awhile, and ull see health and 3/4 bar, but shields at like, say, 87% range o the bar. well, im seeing the shields going way down while the heatlh is decreasing like a standard drone formation would show while shooting.
is anyone else noticing this?

 

What NPC are you doing?

The shield / HP damage distribution for NPC is 50/50. So if you are shooting a NPC that has a lot more HP than shields then the shields will still go down first before the HP does, even with moth.

 

just bks, mother lords. the same ones i first took notes on when i bought my moth. i hae two quests that required those 2 aliens and these are my noted oppinions of what i saw.

 

they adjusted it for all npc now you need to take out the shields for the npc first ecept for gate npc

the npc now have to have shields taken down before the hp is reduced unless its npc in gates it came with the range attack thing

 

machine, no offense, but u made as much sense with what u said as a chimp would trying to type shakespear on a type writer...
what are you saying there? i cant understand at all.
i want to say its english, but i understand english fluently, and i'm fairly possitive thats not it.

 

A while back they changed the shield/hp ratio of aliens to counteract the moths shield penetration. To slow down uri farming of players using moth on them to get uri faster.

To farther clearing moth no longer works on aliens outside of aliens in gates.

Neither is not having capitation or spelling in your sentences but hey pot meet kettle.

 

i shorthand most things. i dont bother with capatilization, as that's correctly spelled, not capitation, because its a waste of a key when ur not typing a professional (whatever it is ur typing)
i shorthand words too. ur takes less time then spelling out the whole your word itself, and also adds personalization to how a person inputs text. helps for those who pay attn to be able to identify a real poster, or some fake flake that thinks trying to impersonate another player out of spite (which like cheating, and hacking, and botting, is a rather lowlifed, gutless, immature, irresponsible, retarded, stupid, neanderthal kind of thing to do).
now, u remarked on "pot and kettle". check your own gramatical syntax if your going to try and check someone elses, and think outside the box on how ppl type. the lack of knowledge u exhibited shows that u ought to check out the web on others views of type personalization, as well as how others feel about ppl butchering the english language. some will get offensive about it.
others, like me, will tell u that if u dont speak fluent english, then please go learn so that u dont cause serious misinterpretation and create drama.
thank you, have a good day, happy hunting.

u'll also notice that at the beginning of ur statement, u have written A while, which is one word, not two. the word while, without the a, is a totally different word, that though it does relate to a passage of time in one manner or another depending on main point and sentence structure, is not the same meaning as the word awhile, which is what i think u meant.

also, at the end: "To farther clearing moth no longer works on aliens outside of aliens in gates." what exactly are those first 3 words supposed to be relating to? it looks like ur talking about distance, with farther; and i'm not going to guess what clearance is relative too.

 

No its not.

Don't*
Else's*
Grammatical*

Among others.

So your saying you know the answer to the question you yourself asked for a answer on?

 

lol. yes, it is. capitalization when u type it into the text box for replying, since this has spell check, will not have a red line under it. a capital letter is the high form that denotes a name, and beginning of sentence. u got a dictionary? doesnt seem so.
far as grammatical, i type fast. i miss keys. it happens. i dont feel offended by u trying to nit pick every lil thing. i've learned that ppl with nothing better to do then belittle another for every lil thing, just need a big hug, an "i love you brother/sister of God", and maybe some psychiatric help to boot (depending on what made them get into the whole bully mentality). i've accepted that there will always be ppl like that.

but no, i do not have the answer to the question, but i think u are right on the farming nerf they did on moth. i will say, that it didnt work. it drains the shields hard on bks. with sabs, sar1's, i can still kill it as fast as if they didnt nerf moth on npc' outside of gate.

 

as far as i known, the penetration radio of npcs in uper map ( x-5 -> x-7) is 80% ( shield absorb 80% dmg) and i think this penetration radio haven't changed for a long time ago. That mean even u use the moth formation, u still cant kill they before their shield drop to 0 cause the penetration radio of they is 60% ( shield absorb 60% dmg). And u should remember npc in uper map have hp higher than their shield so it's immpossible to kill them before their shield drop to 0. In lower map u can kill npc before their shield drop to 0 whilte u using moth formation since npc in lower map have lower penetration radio.

 

pk, the nerfed moth. i've already come to understand what they did, thinking they would stop farming.
they really made it easier.
moth on npc's in uppers, as well as lowers, has been set to eat the shields with the irrational thought that it would slow down players on kiling npc's very quickly (farming) but in all reality, they made it to where u can use moth with sar1's and 1x, rapidly eat away the shields, then switch to cheron and 2x to obliterate it entirely with ease.
u could also use barrage. or bat.
i popped 80 bk's in an hour doing this.
and i was only hitting 3.2-4k unsepped, unprommied. single dmg booster.

 

Moth formation still works on npc outside of gate. NPCs just got stronger when they were changing the range of BK after new items were added they gave NPCS outside gate Shield Mechanics.

 

I am going to close this thread before it degrades any further as it is quickly becoming a bashing topic.
