We said the 40% cap would be moving, we did have this in mind all along, no denying that. At no point did we say that it wouldn't have a knock on effect on relfects because the place the 40% cap occurs in the code would be changing. Yes, the absorbs were the main focus as those where what allowed the dubious gameplay practise and the ability that was effected most, but in choosing to move the 40% cap back it does effect more then just absorbs that was part of the equation.
The battlestations have changed the way people PVP, the introduction of mechs alone change the way people PVP, and the number of people PVPing. We are playing on the Battlestations, we are watching on the battlestations, so we are more then aware of how things are going thank you very much, don't worry in that regard we are right beside you in the battlestations (you never know maybe even occasionally fighting you )
