Duoplexe

The idea is to use speshal energy as sheld energy for a short time. The sheld strength bar whould tearn blow wich indicase that duoplexe is active.

If the ship or station this is used on is hit with a wepon wile the duoplexe is active the The sheld strength bar will not showe damge but it will take energy from speshal energy to keep duoplexe working.

When duoplexe time exspierd it will stop runig or with speshal energy has ben zaped from weponds fier.

Not really. I always thought that the shield drain beam of the D'deritax tipped the balance very far in its favour, getting to recharge its shields at will. (even moreso in future 1.0 where a couple vessels can have this) and the Diamond's shield remodulator tends only to target one (usually weak) vessel, but made it temporarily indestructible.

Would this be a vessel improvement? or equipped on a special support vessel? &nsbp; &nsbp;

Keep in mind I have not played per3 ut basted on what I know of B2 I think it would be a good idea.

This would be givein to one class of vesal. it could be used on one of the races to come.

All tho it could be give to a suport ship.

So to summarize a special weapon that allows special weapon energy to be drained rather than the shields correct? I though there was already a weapon like this somewhere in B2 or Pre B3 not sure on that though.

No, The idea is for the Duoplexe technolgay is to hider your real sheal levals by shouwing a new coror in plase of the normal sheald bar indicater.

Wile the Duoplexe is active all dage reseved will come out of speshal energy insted of the normal sheald energy leval.

The Duoplexe only lasts for a perdetermed time linth or untill the speshal energy of the ship it is used on has ben used up.
