up front soaking damage for everyone else

If there was only a class with a MAXimum amount of armor that could do that!

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

It's not a shield in the planetside 2 sense, it's a shield in the traditional sense, like an energy riot shield. it's called an Aegis shield, and it's something only NC maxes can get. It's pretty neat and lends itself to some good team play stuff but you have to assume that the people behind you have the balls to move in behind your shield and not camp a teleport room or something.

Yeah, they're not nearly as useful as the old PS1 bubble shields.

Does the passive regen speed of Adrenalin Shield increase as you rank it up, or does ranking it up only increase the amount of regen you get per kill?

Only the ammount you regen per kill.
Imo this is the best shield but that's just my opinion.

Just a note for anyone who finds that they can't launch the game at the moment, Planetside 2 and all of SOE's servers are currently down due to a DDoS attack that was launched against them a few hours ago.

Servers and website are slowly coming back up, just in time for all Steam's servers to go down.

That's crappy. It's also a double xp day today too, which was unannounced.

I bought a flare gun... its really hard to kill people with.


Also when the hell is SOE going to give the flare gun, snowball gun, and dart gun some iron sights or at least cross hairs in zoom?

I had 1750 certs so I certed into Adrenaline Shield up to level 4. Since I was using the NMG with only a single cert put into it (invested way back in the day) this is a significant upgrade for me.

Right now at level 4, killing somebody takes nine seconds off the recharge and gives me 105 health in the shield. That's an extra bullet, and an extra bullet of survivability every kill can go a long way.

I should get medkits so I can be like the people who make youtube montages showing off their totally pro ability to kill pubbies.

Speaking of medkits, is there a reason to pick regen kits over medkits? Medkits way work faster but regen does its healing over time... so regen kits are for just before entering a room so you can heal while getting shot? I dunno, seems like the healing wouldn't be fast enough to make you survive much longer. They are cheaper though, but I've never had any problem with resources unless I pulled a MAX suit.
