Happy to see this done but....

 

The issues I reported did not get fixed :(

Yup work is still in progress for this.

Thanks a lot for letting us know that you're busy with it.

I hope it'll open up a lot of crazy weapon combinations and such.

I can confirm that it works a lot better  with the Ignis now !

 

I tested it in the simulacrum on a lvl 55 gunner and I got 11dmg ticks without shield and 15dmg ticks with it.

 

I also got separate fire and electricity procs with fire proccing more often which is normal. Although I believe shooting through the shield previously combined the damage types -shooting fire projectiles changed the element to radiation damage and procs, for instance- I think I can live with that.

Looks like they actually were. Check your thread Dizzle, I posted an answer there.

 

Edit : Oh my, sorry for the double post.

The hotfix that we have just received indeed fixed volt's shield not giving crit damage and electrical damage bonuses. Unfortunately, it seems that shotguns are still somewhat affected. Along with the bugs that were just fixed, the "shotguns have their falloff removed" function of his shield was also gone- and still is as of this hotfix. Thx for the fixes, hope to see this get resolved as well!

 

EDIT: Additionally- his shields seem to now be granting a 25% electrical bonus, whereas in the past it was 50%. (Honestly imo it's a fairer amount. They are very powerful regardless. Just thought I'd mention it as well).

I was interested in the answer as well -- I wanted to say thanks for taking the time to answer. 

 

Just knowing it hasn't been temporarily shelved, and is still in the mix, as it were, is great to know! I'm sure it will be awesome when it's finished.

This will be fixed next Hotfix.

Does this mean that volt's shield will combo with limbo again? in my tests shield has not allowed bullets to hit none voided targets in rift walk or cataclysm for limbo or his fellow tenno like it used to.

I was getting near the normal +50% while testing some stuff from my Volt thread.
