Anyone have any good info on how they work now on test as well as stats/resource requirements?
Also on todays patch looks as if even jedi and tkas can use them.

I've been using one on TC. It takes the Ranged attacks of all the creatures I've run into. They are all energy now. Problem is, all creatures use mele if you are close enough. I does nothing for you then.
All I know.
I think I saw that the resource usage was staying the same. But uses OQ/CD for the recharge rate.

From what was written it PSG is supposed to act more like synth steak stopping a certain ammount of attacks then wearing out for a time but I have not tested this yet and also welcome hearing more info

It also does not do it's initial charge till you equip it so you cannot have multiple at the ready and switch between them.

As a crafter on a couple servers but NOT an Armorsmith I must step in here because the failure of the Devs to "listen" to any of us is universal. I must also point out that the ONLY problem here is the communities failure to REALLY do anything about it. I read all these posts about the Devs failure to heed to the desires of us, the guys who pay their salaries, and act accordingly. How many of you guys who constantly post how the Devs never listen to us have actually cancelled your subscriptions? Almost 2 yrs into this and the problem from the beginning is the same problem as today. The devs refuse to listen to the community. If its been 2 yrs and no progress how many of you actually think its ever gonna get better?! If you want to make a statement then cancel your subscriptions. That is the only "post" they will listen to.I know this game is addictive and all but if things are that bad then quit. The devs will take notice of that if nothing else. I dont expect this post to be around long so take heed, and yes I have cancelled my subscription in case anyone asks.

Will you please shut up? This is the 6th or seventh time in as many threads I've seen this exact same post from you. Stop hijacking legitimate threads. If you want your message to be heard so badly, then make your own topic and bump it. But stay out of other people's threads.
Backto the topic, how long does it take to charge up the PSG initially? I imagine that some people will make a PSG combat macro to switch between PSGs as the battle goes on:
/equip PSG1; /wait 10; equip PSG2; /wait 10; etc
and so on, then loop back to the first PSG, which has had time to recharge.

According to the HoC chat, psgs will be the only form of armor us crafters can wear (speaking as a master bio engineer). However, he neglected to mention that this will do little good to us out in the field when checking harvesters because they only protect against ranged damage! Most times I am attacked by things hitting me, not shooting at me.
I don't even think things like poison spit that spiders are even covered under ranged damage (my jedi doesn't block these with his saber... so I can only assume).
So, either you hire a mercenary squad to come with you to collect resources, prepare for 1hit incaps unless you can spare the now extra sp's for a little combat profession. I was a x44x fencer, but with the new sp requirements... I will only be able to pick up 1 tree ina combat profession... probably TKA after CURB I guess.
I give the CURB a thumbs down and these PSG's are just another in a series of short-sighted moves by the Dev's. WoW is looking so much better every day... especially since this isn't even a Star Wars game anymore after CURB.

Does the condition last longer? Also does its charge go down with damage or after a certain number of hits?
Sorry for all the questions just havent had time to log on at all let alone get on the test center
