BUG: Scorpion Shield for Robot FF Mastermind - Wrong numbers

[plainguy]

First off great program couldn't do half of what I do without it.

BUT, yep here comes the but. Today it really messed me ( lack of another word ) while working to get defense cap or close to it.

I was working with Scorpion shield on my Robot FF mastermind in the builder and though yes the wording in the description is correct. When looking at the total defense's it is adding defense bonus to everything and not just the Smash Lethal and energy as it was suppose to.

End result I log in game to respec and then rebuild buying the necessary Inventions, only to discover my fire, cold  and negative defense are about  12 % short from the cap.

Again now spending several hours going over the spec making sure everything is correct.

That is when I noticed the description once again for Scorpion Shield and when I toggled it on and off that it was adding Defense bonuses not just to the 3 defense stats but to EVERY Defense stat..

Nonetheless spending 5 hours respecing, paying 80 million for assorted inventions and beta testing MIDs is not what I wanted to do.

I now need to respec yet once again to fix this defense issue, I was trying to correct in the first place.  :'(

It's version 1.621 Database 16.1147 03/mar/2010

Happy but just a bit frustrated ( today only ) player

Turn off PvP Mode (Top right corner of the Mids' window)

ARRRGGGGGGGGGG

:gonk:

Bah, lesson learned.. I will keep my eye out in the future for that button.  I NEVER spec for PvP.

I'm very frustrated.

Thanks though, it will be one of those things I look at constantly like OCD.

lol. sadly when I last edited the source code, I set the PVP = true during the event when Mids opens. I was testing a source-side pvp tweak and forgot to set it back. The next release will not have this issue.
