Right now I'm waiting on the patch because as SE4 is right now this isn't working.

I think he's referring to some sort of ECM that affects seekers ability to hit. We've been asking MM to do this for a long time. He doesn't seem to want to do it.

The next patch will have a damage type 'Quarter Damage to Shields' which will provide quite a serious penalty against shields. This sounds like a good simulation of 'sidewall' deflection of energy weapons.

And... you could use the 'Only Shield Generators' damage type to create a Grav Lance. Too bad SE doesn't have shield facings and you have to knock out ALL of the shield generators to get a clear shot.
