OkinaMataraI'd too be in favor of updated geno mechanics for 2.6.x01:04

AgathaHave another +1. Shield should block geno. The mechanic is important-enough on Apoc, anyway, that I consider it vital: if the team is doing badly, getting SH is assurance that at least you personally won't die to yet another genoed teamie; this situation (of both having SH and being on a bad team) comes up a lot more often than you'd think.03:48
OkinaMataraCome to think of it, it may not be a bad idea to both a thread and/or an issue for the sake of discussion of changes in flag mechanics.04:11

L4m3rIf SH is changed to recognize G, should it go both ways? If a player holding SH is shot with a geno flag, should their teammates get blown up as they lose the shield?09:29
the_mapI think that would imply the shield didn't actually nullify the impact on the player10:06
the_mapit would also reduce the need for someone with G to target a non-SH player10:13
blast007I wouldn't see a reason why a player with shield shot with geno should have their teammates die10:15
Optic_DelusionIt already works that way. The first time the shield player gets shot with geno, he drops the shield.  If he is then shot again, geno results.11:23
blast007the discussion is about *changing* the behavior of geno11:27
