Urgent (Tesco Read) - Time Distortion Burst Bug found in 1.78

Tesco & Puke, I disagree with you both.

Quartering the damage would give us a 30kt weapon that does 30 points of damage at a range of 7. Essentially you'd be stripping the TDB of what makes it special- the extra damage to shields.

Double the damage and you're doing 30 extra points of hull damage, which is more important than shield damage.

I would say that the compromise is 45 points of damage. That way the temporal player isn't getting screwed but isn't getting a vastly more powerful weapon either.

[Edit- punctuation sucks at 6:30 in the morning!]

So 1.5 shield damage...

1.5 all damage. More hull than it would have done but less shield. It winds up being a slightly shorter ranged APB but is a worthwhile weapon for a temporal player.
