Shield Gating -- Answer to Launcher's instant suicide?

[Twilight053]

A quick cent... If shield gates stops us from killing ourselves instantly with launchers, what do you think?

[Tsukinoki]

As long as something similar was added for Nidus and Inaros, since they don't have shields, I don't see why not.  I just don't see why those frames, or any future frame, that doesn't have shields should be punished more for squad mates running right in front of you or odd clipping/lag issues if they are using a launcher.

Because not having a shield is supposed to be a weakness ? It makes sense for them to not have shield gating since they don't have shield, in exchange they have high HP (inaros) and Insta-revive (nidus)

then whats the point of modding if u only use 8 of the thousands we have?

Or a mod that costs 7 or 9 and reduces self damage by 100% when fully ranked? More bandaids, anyone?

Not true.  Next time there is a sortie defense, give your kulstar to the operative.  Good thing they don't include the operative in the stats at the end, pretty sure he probably got more kills than I did in the last sortie defense I did solo and somehow he didn't kill himself once.
