maybe a stupid question, but are there any?

What comes in my mind:
  • Repair Matrix?
  • Shied Boost?
  • Volus Heavy Melee (Defensive Stance)?
  • Stimulant Packs?
  • Biotic Focus (Biotic Shield) ?
I would say only AUI Repair Matrix does reset the shield gate timer, but I am not sure.

[Edit 2] Nothing seems to reset the 3s shield gate delay.
Thanks for input.

No sure about the AIU's cheat matrix, but no to the others, although many provide a brief period of 100% DR.

What the hell is a shieldgate timer, anyway Adrenaline Rush, Biotic Charge, Energy Drain, Annihilation Field, Juggernaut's Heavy Melee, Geth Turret might also have what you are looking for.

like once your shield is broken, even if you refill your shields you do not have shield gate for several seconds.  it depends on the difficulty setting

 

also in my experience it depends on the host because i swear some games i dont have shield gate at all

I have also the impression that Repair Matrix resets the shieldgate. As for the other powers, Deerber is right.

I swear: The mere gaze of Ravager can negate shield-gate.

Oh that thing, I already knew about it, I call it Lag. On-Host all the shield restoring powers instantly reset the shieldgate timer on my PC. I think it is dependent on the CPU Speed.

I mp pretty sure its not. Like BC on vanguard, u can end up dead out for charge.

Shield gate reset time is 3s whatever the shield recharge is . I dont remember which abitility restores it, maybe the aiu matrix as allready said.

btw shield gate i frame is 0.01 or .1 sec on plat, lol.

orignal explanation on the player shield gate : http://forum.bioware.../#entry12814079

 

Note that the shield gate reset time has been balanced to 3sec later on

I'm pretty sure no power reinstates the shield gate.
But theoretically at least, if you use an ops pack to give you I frames, you could use several ops packs to become invincible until the shield gate is reinstated. Probably a bit of a waste but meh.

Shieldgate timer isn't dependant on frames nor cpu speed, it's a variable that was balance changed.

In practice , ops packs just gives a nice shiny shimmer to the lifeless body

Only time you can tell is the shield breaking sound. As far as I know only repair matrix does (and I tested all the powers for ModMaker)

The reset duration I think is 4 seconds... Might go lower as your delay goes down.

Not always - sometimes they make you pull out a missile before you die.

Balance changed to 3s, and shield regen bonuses are not supposed to have an effect.

Editing the opening thread with all that gathered knowledge.

 

I hope that this thread doesn't motivate more players to steal this rare nades out of the boxes.

Luck for me, that my Drell is faster than a Bot :rolleyes:

Repair Matrix doesn't do it either. 

 

What really irks me about it is that shield regen gear really is useless since all it does is fill your shield gauge before you should be jumping back into action. You'll have full shields but then one shot will kill you because lolshieldgate is not restored.

It can be useful on a kit with a lot of shields and/or huge DR, so that your shields aren't one shotted. However yeah, it's pretty lame that they don't affect shieldgate.

Yes, I know what you mean. But it still works really well on Batarian Kits & Justicar when set for max shield regeneration.

 

And I always enjoy faster shield regen on Infiltrators since Tactical Cloak delays shield regeneration.

 

I even use it on Volus, because I'd rather heavy melee to hide over using shield boost if I can help it.

That would be broken. And it's really fine the way it is.

It'd be a pretty deep step to tweak the balance in favour of you. It's the single most important mechanic to make you survive under fire.
