Is Energy Drain Ever Getting Changed?

[Rettycombine]

I'm fine with the grineer door traps and  the disruptor attacks at a pinch, but the leaders with auras that instantly drain your shields and energy as soon as you turn the corner is not that fun, you can't use any abilities or channel your melee until you find your next energy orb. The biggest problem i have with the energy drain mechanic is that it removes all your energy, it's not like in other games were the HUD disrupting/energy draining attacks give you your ability to use powers back.

Maybe it will get lowered or made stronger, but I highly doubt it will be removed.

Agreed. Ancient disruptors, you can see and you can dodge or block their magnetic arms. Grineer doors can (usually) have their sensor bars shot off, or failing that, can be avoided by using Link, Iron Skin or Hysteria (and you can probably block it in melee mode). If you lose your energy to these guys, it's your fault and I'm fine with that.

 

Magnetic leaders (or are they called shock eximus now, I can't remember) have no counter. You can't see their drain coming and you can't actively defend against it. This needs fixing.

One solution would be that, upon killing this leader type, he should drop like 10 blue orbs or something, as a refund.
