Does Active Defense still get enhanced with Hami-Os

[leeowensoas]

Title=thread. Slotting Cytoskeletons appears to enhance DDR in Mids but I don't have a 50 shield to test in game. Don't wanna drop the inf if it doesn't work and have to respec out the extra slot. Also the DDR does still stack from a second casting, right?

That was nerfed on live way before we went dark, and yes we took advantage of that for a long time until the nerf. Unless Homecoming re-enabled it then that is no longer the case

So why not try it on the Beta servers, where you can instantly boost a char to 50 and equip it for free?  Check out the Beta forums for instructions.

Okay, I thought I remembered it finally getting fixed on live way back when. Dang so for DDR on Shields does everyone just take Ageless Radial? I usually like Rebirth on characters without a heal, am I gonna have to take the dreaded Aid Self instead?

Yes active defense stacks but on live we where hitting  90+% ddr resistance with Cytoskeletons because the way hami-o's worked they buffed both parts they eventually nerfed that on shields.  Yes I abused the hell out of it on live that is why Cyto's where so expensive on live for a period of time and then the patch  price tanked and they became worthless
